Reviews for Mo's Irish Pub in Katy, TX
Very much enjoyed the experience. Great service, great food, very convenient location. Stop by and grab a burger.
We stopped by on a very busy day as the Astros were playing the Mariners and Tennessee was beating Alabama. The food and the... service was great despite being so busy. FYI they have the best cheese curds in town. It's well run, friendly servers, greatfood are all readons to stop. Read more
The steak skillet was really good. I loved the french dip sandwich. My only issue was with the chicken and rice soup which I... really did not like. The server was nice. The place was busy and had only two servers but they were trying their best and werekinda fast. Read more
While not a traditional Irish pub, the place is a cool little place to hang out, watch the ball game and have some fair-priced... drinks. The food is pretty good for being bar food. I particularly enjoy the large pretzel with cheese while watching thegame. The beer selection is not the greatest, from what my beer aficionado friend tells me. I drink liquor and they have allthe normal stuff you'd expect from a bar. The staff is great! The bartenders are all friendly and attentive each time we gothere. There has never been a huge crowd when we go. We like that as they usually have excellent 80s-90s music playing at agood volume where you can sit there and have a conversation without shouting and still enjoy the music or games that are on themultiple screens. I gave it a 4 star review because their food is not the greatest, and we've had a couple of things that werenot very good at all, in our opinion. Someone should do a better job with some of those menu items. You don't have to have alarge menu, but what is on the menu should be nothing less than excellent. Nevertheless, we always have a good time. Read more
1st time going on St.Patricks day but by 9pm no green beer and 20+ mins to get a beer. Just seemed unorganized. I was reserved... in listing all complaints but a warm lemon drop martini should never leave a bar warm even when in a plastic container. Dennyson Fry rd has a much better burger. The music had nothing Irish. Whole experience was disappointing. May visit regular night butnot for St.Patricks Celebration. Read more
We selected Mo's Irish Pub to celebrate St. Patrick's Day. Planning for 2 adults and a 7-year-old sometimes has it's... complications, but Mo's was advertising Irish dancers and other ALL DAY entertainment, so we thought the venue would be perfect.We left disappointed. I will break this review down as so many factors play a part in only giving them 2 shamrocks (stars). Tostart, I will say the service was great, especially since it was SUPER busy! We had one main server and a helper server. Bothwere very attentive and handled 2 special requests. I asked for kiddie Sprite to be green and I asked for some beads for him towear. All smiles and they seemed happy to accommodate. Now on to the low rating items. ENTERING: I researched this place aheadof time. I looked at the advertised entertainment, hours, menu and reviews. We went early in the day and was encouraged since wesaw a line. A line to me means people are flocking to this place because it's good... not always the case. The line was for theentrance fee and filing out the paper slip for a drawing. Only $5 per person (not children), but nowhere on their website wasthis advertised. That's a big no-no. It was packed and loud, which is not their fault nor am I rating them on that factor, so Iwas really surprised we found a table so fast. FOOD: The food didn't really seem Irish for an Irish pub. The names were Irish,but I wouldn't classify the actual food as Irish. Secondly, you could tell items were cooking in batches ahead of time insteadof as ordered because everything was lukewarm at best. We ordered onion rings for an appetizer - barely warm, the Reuben - cold,chicken tenders - cold, and a kiddie burger - barely warm. I think the food could have been fairly good, but without thetemperature accurate, it's hard to tell. The Jamison dip they make special in house is additional $0.50 per tiny cup. That wasnot explained when offered. ENTERTAINMENT: We heard the DJ playing and I saw a cornhole game going on ou Read more
It's hard to rate an "Irish pub" thats not very Irish. The food is mediocre but the bar is set up nice with lots of seating and... plenty of TVs to watch sports. It has a franchise vibe and is good for a quick hang with your friends but it is not a "my hangout bar" Read more
I have been a fan of this place since day 1 but it has been going downhill the last couple of years. I thought last year was the... last straw. Details of that review remain below. Tonight: 2 bartenders and about 8 people at the bar, about another 8 peopletotal in the restaurant. We ordered spinach artichoke dip. About 25 minutes later we were presented with a plate of cold cornchips and an iron skillet containing almost entirely boiled spinach, dry and burnt around the top edges with a sprinkling ofparmesan cheese and diced tomatoes. The server apologized profusely and he said he understood as we refused the order. Wereplaced it with onion rings. The server said "yeah, they shouldn't be able to mess that up". And yet what we received 20minutes later was about 7 or 8 onion rings fused by fried batter into 2 big clumps of mess. After waiting with an empty beerglass for about 10 minutes, I called the bartender over for another beer. Both bartenders had walked by the empty glass multipletimes at that point. I was hoping things had turned around here but sadly, it has not. An inspection of the restrooms revealedthere has been no improvement in cleanliness there either. Mold and dirt on the air vents, accumulated dust on fixtures andsurfaces. The food pictures in my review are from years past when the kitchen was much better run and consistent thancurrently. From last year: Today might be the last straw. We were the first people to walk in at opening at 3pm on Monday. Wewere told by the bartender Guinness wasnt available and the taps hadn't been working since Saturday. The bathrooms were in adisgusting state with hair and algae growth in the sink, dirt and dust on the flushing fixtures, dirt and what appears to bemold on the air vents. Needless to say we left without ordering. Read more
