You can smell it before you see it — the fresh meat hitting the grill, the aroma of cilantro and the baked cheese settling into a burrito. Well-known and loved, the Mo’s Burritos food truck is a staple for on-campus cuisine and a comfort meal for any part of your day, whether it be after class or a long night out.
It’s fair to wonder how one truck can make the range of delectable, authentic Mexican dishes that Mo’s offers, including tacos, burritos, elote, quesadillas, nachos and more. But the staff works quickly, handing out ticket after ticket for the hungry student population.
The flavors are full of character, with the spices, sauces and textures all combining strongly in each bite you take. Mo’s routinely has a line extending along the sidewalk on most nights, demonstrating the pull it has across people of all palates.
Students aren’t just buying a meal, but a conversation with workers and other students in line, making Mo’s a shared, enjoyable experience rather than a singular snacking venture — and that doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon.
