Moe’s Southwest Grill (Knightdale)

Moe’s Southwest Grill sits at the Shoppes at Midway in Knightdale and serves Tex-Mex down a counter line: burritos, bowls, quesadillas, tacos and nachos, built the way you ask. Every entrée comes with free chips and house-made salsa and sauces.

It works better as a quick lunch than a long dinner, and the same menu goes out for catering. There is room to eat in, and the counter setup keeps things moving. Orders can be placed online ahead of a stop, which helps when the counter is busy.
