Products & Services

Moe's
“thing” happens to be food. Southwestern fare, with a special appreciation for
the form and function of a tortilla. He experimented with fresh ingredients and
had an appropriate name for each creation. He opened a restaurant, and made it known
loud and clear that no matter how many times a day he had to say it, everyone who
came through the door would feel welcome. And if you stuck around long enough, you’d
probably hear that song that helped make a man, a legend.
Welcome to Moe’s.
Moe's offers Southwestern favorites including burritos, quesadillas, tacos, salads, fajitas and more. We also offer a wide variety of protein options including marinated steak, chicken, ground beef, grilled fish and tofu.
