Moe's Original Bar B Que

Can't say enough good about this place. The staff is always great and makes up for the fact that my order is never correct, but ALWAYS GREAT. The last 3 times I've gotten take out, they forget to add in my extra cornbread and extra side of Mac that they ALWAYS remember to charge me for lol. It is what it is, the area is super hard to find quality food, let alone staff that arent burnt out old ski bums, so you learn to tolerate being charged for things you won't get... its my fault, should've checked my order before leaving, especially since it's happened EVERY TIME. Again, it's worth it. Used to be packed with customers when it was up the street, since they moved and never put up notices of a new location, new signage or on the road most people think they closed down because it's truly hidden well. You will be VERY PLEASED with your food, just confirm you get what you're paying for because it's EXPENSIVE TOO!!! PORTION Portion sizes are VERY SMALL compared to other bbq joints (hence always ordering extra) Particularly the mac n cheese... you will get a bigger sample cup of food at costco than you pay for here. Maybe its just the little cups they put it in, but ive never seen such small sides anywhere and RARELY are they filled more than half way...you'll want to be sure you bring plenty of money and just ORDER EXTRA! Tip the staff well, the front of house bar staff work very hard with all the takeout and double duties. I am a bit shocked by the 20% gratuity they charge parties of 4 at a self service place as its not the customers responsibility to pay extra money to the staff IF THEY ARENT SERVING TABLES, but you also cant be cheap if you want to eat here. IVE never been charged a auto tip that ive noticed and would have challeneged it if I did. HOWEVER... If you can afford to take your kids out to eat or even to visit tahoe, the extra 20% won't kill you!! Also horrified by the bizarre comments from whoever is posting as "owner" because this is NOT the experience IVE HAD with the owners or management. They have always been very professional and polite, so unless someone has millions to bankroll a business, I simply cant imagine those responses are from the actual owners... if so, I would seriously reconsider my opinion or visiting here again... let alone bringing in tons of other new customers that visit the area. Someone has worked very hard to create a VERY VERY nice restaurant so hopefully whoever is ACTUALLY PAYING THE BILLS sees and understands just how bad those "responses" make them sound and look! (Not like successful business owners who appreciate customers, but very much like COMPLETE A HOLES!!) Last but not least, BRING YOUR POOCH! THEY HAVE AN INCREDIBLY NICE area for people sitting with dogs outside. The view is great from anywhere on the property and WAY nicer than the previous location. I drive up here AT LEAST once a week JUST for BBQ takeout from Auburn, CA and when you try it, you will see why!!

My wife and I stopped in for a late lunch/early dinner while exploring and hiking in the area. I had the ribs and my wife had the smoked chicken. Both of the meats were prepared perfectly. The chicken was very tender and had a good smokey flavor but not too heavy. The rib meat was also excellent. I'm not a fan of heavy vinegar based BBQ sauce and that's what they use. I'm not criticizing the sauce, it's just not what I prefer. If there would have been an option for a different type of sauce, this would definitely be a 5 star review.

So blown away by our mid day meal! Went around 2pm on a week day, so they weren’t very busy, counter service which was actually great. Came from 5 hours of hiking so just wanted to chill! The bama style pork platter was to die for and the fried green tomatoes were perfectly crispy and juicy. Great bar and friendly staff. Enjoy an amazing view and some very filling food!

A solid and dependable local favorite. I especially like the wide selection of yummy sides. Good local draft beers. Chill vibes. Portions are a bit small though for a bbq place. Vegetarian options often feel like an after thought, and you certainly don't expect much especially at a bbq place, but the grilled tofu here is actually good. I get it every time.

Delicious BBQ food! I got the half rack of ribs with collard greens and skillet corn. My friend got the pulled pork sandwich with mac and cheese and the slaw. I definitely think the mac and cheese and collard greens were the best sides! The cornbread was also amazing. We got local beers and enjoyed sitting in the sun! The restaurant took all the necessary precautions for social distancing and servers all were masks. Highly recommend if you want authentic BBQ in Tahoe!
