From Charlotte Restaurant Traffic on March 13:

Our friend and colleague Patty Dowdy with National Restaurant Properties has just placed Moe’s Original BBQ in the former Pure Taqueria location in Matthews. We loved Pure but thought Matthews was an odd location. Moe’s on the other hand looks to be a perfect fit. They are based out of Colorado and this will be the 2nd North Carolina location, the other is in Ashville.

Based on their Facebook page, they are shooting for a late May opening so despite my slight skepticism (being a chain and all) I may be looking to check it out in just a few weeks. 

Update: Here is a press release.
