"Looks better than it is. Ambient is very summary, great art work on the walls, multi-coloured chairs. Soft lighting, light spanish/ mecxican music in the background. Also an open kitchen towards the back, so you can see them cook. Ordered a variety of dishes including: Nachos for 2, smoked chicken enchiladas, Jalapeño poppers, Chicken fajitas, Wild mushroom Quasedias and a vegetarian Chimichanga. Food ordered was either too salty, bland or just average. Basic touches you expect from a Mexican restaurant, let them down. For example, when ordering a sizzling fajita dish, firstly it didnt sizzle, secondly all the side dips were not there salsa, guacamole etc as were put into one bowl, minus the guacamole as you have to buy that separate for 7.95! Extortionate! The side rice ordered with the Chiminchanga, was either stale or cooked really early in the day and so had a weird texture. The Mushroom Quasedia, Nachos were really salty. One thing I was really disappointed about was the salsa they provided with all the dishes was Chipotle base sauce. This was quite strong, very smoky notes that is not for everyone. Should have given a choice if that was wanted. The cocktails were nice, no complaints there. The toilets were ok, with the women's one not clean. The staff were ok, majority were fine but one particular person was guessing, the manager was as miserable as they come. It took forever for them to come when required. So overall, an average experience. Not what I was expecting."

"Having been to Moo previously and as I was passing me and the girlfriend fancied a cocktail as they were advertised for £6 a go on the front window, why not! Went in and told the waitress we were only drinking and she said it...was OK. We sat down and looked at the cocktail menu. Menu wasn't clear what cocktails were £6 each so I went up to ask. Guy behind the bar just said the classics were included so fair enough. Went back to my table, looked at the menu but none were classified as classics so a bit confused went back up to the bar to ask and was intercepted by the waitress. Don't know if she was having a bad day but she was really quite rude and abrupt in advising me that it was actually a restaurant and thus table service and that I should go and sit down and wait to be served. (maybe don't advertise £6 cocktails on the window if your that restaurant orientated and also dont have a bar there if its just a restaurant). Went to sit down (didn't want to get told off again) and chatted with my girlfriend and told her I thought the waitress was pretty spiky. Now looked over to see the waitress serving the table next to us, caught her eye and got a look of a face like thunder lol (if you're gonna be that stressy maybe look for a new vocation away from hospitality anyway when she came over she took our order of 2 porn star martinis. 5 minutes later, the drinks turned up and I have to say that taste of the drinks were definitely as sour as the waitresses attitude. Not a very good balance of taste at all. Much better places to spend your money on brick lane. Thank moo very much!"
