“Welcome to Moe’s!” will soon be heard on the streets of Las Vegas when Moe’s Southwest Grill opens in the Summerlin Mall on Thursday, October 9 at 10965 Lavender Hills Drive Suite 120. To celebrate opening day, Moe’s will treat guests to a free side of queso with any purchase on Friday, October 10.

The Las Vegas location is owned by franchise partner Mike Kelesis, who previously worked in the commercial real estate industry. The restaurant is Kelesis’ first; part of a deal he signed to develop eight locations throughout Las Vegas over the next several years. A second location is expected to open late November at 6910 South Rainbow Boulevard.

“Moe’s is a rapidly growing brand with a loyal following across the country and we believe Las Vegas will also enjoy Moe’s fresh, made-to-order food, and family-friendly atmosphere,” says Kelesis. “We’re eager to open our doors and look forward to building long-lasting relationships with our guests and the community.”
