Atlanta-based Moe’s Southwest Grill is set to unveil its new test kitchen and prototype restaurant in Kennesaw later this week.

The Oasis is slated to open Nov. 16 at 1450 Ernest Barrett Parkway and will feature an updated design and menu items currently being tested.

“Over the past 18-months we’ve taken a comprehensive look at our brand and intently listened to our fans in the process,” said president Bruce Schroder in a press release.

Though menu staples including burritos, bowls, stacks and quesadillas will continued to be served, new dishes will keep in mind dietary restrictions and “the on-demand economy.”
