Moe's Southwest Grill is an American chain of fast casual style Tex-Mex restaurants headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia.
Moe's was founded in Atlanta, Georgia in December 2000,[3] by Raving Brands. In August 2007, the brand was purchased by FOCUS Brands.[4] As of the 2007 purchase, there were 360 locations in operation in 35 states.[1]
Many of the menu items have names drawn from popular culture memes such as the "Art Vandalay" and "Close Talker" (both from the television series Seinfeld).[5]
