Mo’s Burgers in Harlem is a neighborhood staple. Mo Robinson Jr. has been serving the greater Harlem community for over 30 years, whipping up burgers, hot dogs, sausages, and punch right outside the barbershop that he owns. Everyone in the neighborhood knows Mo, and as one customer said, he's like a "mayor of Harlem."

    "I never changed the prices, How else are the young black men and women going to afford it?" This is why you support small businesses. You support them, they support you.
  • @jayp6262
    This man never changed his prices just so he could be able to feed the kids in the community, what a stand up guy. I hope nothing but good things comes his way

    Update 2.8.24 I read up and Mo’s Burgers is still there in Harlem and doing well. Mo sold the barbershop and switch from a food stall to a mobile food truck. The burgers are now $2.50. The reviews are still overwhelmingly positive. Good on you brother for being a good man and a community rockstar

    Teachers: you gonna be flipping burgers for a living and be homeless Mo: paid for 4 college students, own a barbershop, drive a cadi, live in harlem.
  • This man is the living breathing definition of: “it ain’t much, but it’s honest work”.

    “I feel like I’m an asset to the community” Damn straight you are.
  • Lived in Harlem for 2 years when I was working in the USA. Always felt accepted, loved, and welcomed by the family feel of the community. I miss it so much. Dropped by Mo's on the way back from 14 hours at the restaurant. Blew my mind to see his face in this thumb nail.
  • @normblock5183
    YOU are an asset to the neighborhood, but more importantly to the country. You are an inspiration for everyone. God Bless YOU!

    “I make their day...I go home to my wife and she makes my day”. Good man right there
  • @soggyfries4347
    $2 for a burger, $ 1.50 for a hotdog in 2019?.....in NY?!?!?! Bless you, sir!
  • Never been to America, but I'd love to try Mo's Burgers in my lifetime - from the genuine joy he is radiating, to being a cornerstone and a pillar of the community, to his attitude, mannerism and outlook on life, I can honestly say that no matter what happens, one day this world will be so much poorer without him, and I hope that day never comes. God bless him and his heart full of life, he is one of the very few true patriots alive!
  • @BhavyaRama
    I hope he’s okay after the whole covid, he is a treasure and with prices of food going up in the United States, it’s important that people like him still serve affordable food for people to eat
  • @skillage18
    You know he's a real one when you are short and he says you can give it to him next time. never double cross a man that does that.
  • @winner2810
    "get a job, it keeps you out of trouble" words to live by.
  • @sdfwegwewr2455

  • @D6XGY6
    This is a type of man we all need in our lives. A chill, welcoming, and comedic chef. I hope he reaches It really big one day.
