Stylish and Hungry #8–Moe’s Southwest Grill 🌮 🌯

It’s Saturday night and I’m on my way to church. I decided to make a pit stop in my travels. It’s a little bit out of the way but, I decided on Moe’s this evening. It’s number two on my Murrysville restaurant trifecta. Burgatory will be sometime early this Fall.

This is my third trip to the Murrysville location. I have been here before twice with Mr. Clougherty back when he lived in Plum. I’ve had excellent service both times I was there so I’m hoping the third time will be just as good.

This is also my first time doing a review on a restaurant with counter service so let’s see how I did.

Service: The service was quick and efficient. They asked me what I wanted, helped me out with what the toppings were, and they got me in and out in a timely manner. The kitchen staff here did an excellent job. My grade: 9.5/10.

Food: The last two times I ate here I was impressed and the food was good. I ordered bowls my last two visits. This time I got the burrito 🌯. The free salsa was good (I got a small cup of the tomatillo and the roasted tomatillo chipotle). Great for dipping my chips. You also get a lot of options for what you want on your food, just like at Chipotle. My grade: 9/10

Menu: It’s pretty straightforward. You order what looks tasty to you. I love the bowls and the burritos when I come here or to Chipotle. Maybe one day when I’m brave I’ll come back and try the homewrecker. You also get your choice of sides (both the queso 🧀 and the guac 🥑 look tempting). My grade: 9.5/10

Decor: Even for a counter service type restaurant I was quite impressed. Great lighting and signs telling you “Welcome to Moe’s”. It’s not quite as fancy as the more modern Taco Bells but it does the job. My grade: 8.5/10

Ambience: Great dining atmosphere. A step up from Taco Bell, on level with Chipotle, and a small step down from a nice sit down Mexican restaurant like Patron or Acapulco (I’d like to review these in a future blog post. My grade: 9/10.

Overall, not a bad experience here once again. It’s quick (I’m surprised there was no line), efficient, and the food is on par with my Mexican/Southwestern restaurants. And that wraps up this edition of Stylish and Hungry. See you next time.

Final grade: A-
