“I went here yesterday day and got three steak tacos and fries, and they were great, and the presentation of the tacos were good as well. I'm definitely coming back here to eat, and if anyone sees this review, I recommend you try this food.“

Brisket Nachos with Queso

“This was our first time here with our family of 7 and we all loved it. There was live music playing outdoors, the wings and brisket sando and tots were delicious, and then Jennifer gave all of our kids cotton candy at the end of the night. That machine is a fun idea btw.“

“I do not frequent moe’s as often as I prefer other chains. However, my credit card had an offer that I figured I would take advantage of one night for dinner. I was pleasantly surprised when I looked online before I went and saw the meal deals.

In an economy when everything is skyrocketing and budgets are getting tighter, this was something I really appreciated. I got the junior burrito with salsa and queso. I upgraded to steak as that is my preferred meat, but this also came with a drink and chips. All for $13. Then considering that I will get money back from my credit card deal made it even better.

I really appreciated the service of the lady who was working the front. I ordered online and came in right away (I just prefer to order online) and I needed stuff on the side. She paused what she was doing and asked me if I needed help and I was so grateful for that because the other places people acknowledge you until they have a moment. Not that this is a bad thing, but it made me appreciate her a lot more.

I definitely will be returning. I do think it is in a bad area of that shopping center however. I’ve been going to the shopping center for years and I actually go a lot more living in the nearby area the past two years. However, this is my first time going to Moes.

Partially because I do frequent other chains but also partially because it’s easy to forget about if you don’t drive on the street to see the sign and it’s is not a restaurant you go to. I always forget it’s there because when you turn the shopping center go right all the other restaurants are on the other side. You have to turn left to get moe’s.

Overall, pretty good and I will be returning for the meal deal!“

Twisted Ladder Juice Bar & Smoothies • $
8 Davis Drive, Durham

“It's located within the Alexandria building but easy to get to and open to the public! I got a large latte with dulce de leche syrup and it was so tasty. Food and drinks here were reasonably priced for the quality. The staff here were very kind and the environment was clean and cozy! Pleasantly surprised by this place, hope to come back soon!“

“Super nice folks working there so I’m not going to roast too badly. But, the prices at this location are WAY elevated compared to stand alone locations. Example: pizza is $4.99 at the stand alone location near me (way too much to start with) and $6.49 at the mall location. Nearly $10 for Mexican Pizza and a small drink. Just be aware….“

“I usually go to the Moes in Patterson place but this one was better. My husband always gets the white chicken and he said it tasted better and the burrito was neatly wrapped. I ordered a steak stack and it was delicious. I’m giving 4 stars because we both did not get a lot of chips. The chips were crispy and well seasoned as well.“

“I visit this Moe’s almost weekly and it’s always a pleasant experience. The staff is friendly and move efficiently when there’s a crowd. The food is always fresh, I’ve never dealt with hard rice 😅.
I’ll also note, the restaurant is always clean or someone is actively cleaning. This includes the salsa bar area!“
