Great Food and Service and excellent effort in terms of keeping us all SAFE during the 'TRUMP FLU'................................................
Slainte !
Servers were amazing, especially Jamie! The music was a bit low for late night drinks, but overall had a great time :)
Moxies was “fine”, not that I expected anything exceptional. The food was a little cold when it came out and the service was a little slow.
A great patio experience - loved the drinks and the food itself was pretty decent.
It’s was great
Great food
Patio has lots of shade and service staff is excellent!
Lame. Waitresses are too worried about their hair to give proper service.
It was good, a little confusion on the menu as it was the first day open for dine in guests, but I will go back.
Great as always!

Great as always !
Great service and food. A little too loud for my liking.
party of 4, we were going to raptors game (to start at 7:30).. reservation was for 5:30...we had drinks, appetizers, ordered food at 6:30, didn't get our food until after 7 pm. (maybe 40 mins ?) .. food was tasty but we had to rush eating it... will know better to order earlier but think the wait time was excessive assuming that you're prepared for pre-game and pre- theatre guests.....

Tasty
nice setting
always a nice lively crowd
great burgers!
Great as always!
This was a 3 person business lunch and it was slightly awkward that our starters were not input in the system and the server forgot all about them. They ended up coming towards the middle of our meal along with the third of three meals arriving last. The timing was off and disappointing.
Great as always !
All good no condiments at table and frankly i didn’t want to take the time to ask but would have expected them. Otherwise all great! Wonderful server and food was great
Great place to meet up before a game. Nice and close to Scotia. Good array of appies and cocktails also!
Hi GoldMiner, thanks for your positive review. We hope to see you again soon! Sincerely, Amanda S., Events Coordinator - Moxies Downtown Toronto
Moxie' s is a hoping downtown bar. Menu is average. Great for youthful minded. Parking in attached building is convenient.
The food, service and location are great but its too noisy and we could not hear each other talking in there.
Our server was amazing.
Hi Tarvia, Thanks for your great review - we're happy you enjoyed your experience and the service! We look forward to seeing you again soon. Amanda S., Events Coordinator - Moxies Downtown Toronto
After booking through open table well in advance for my husband, daughter and I before we headed to a Roy Thomson concert we got seated in the back, high chair table by the washroom and parking area. After saying something we got seated in the main dining area. Not impressed. Waitress service was great. Food was pretty good but parts of it came cold. Malbec was excellent. Didn’t bother to take pics of food because presentation was lacking. I am impressed by the waiter guy who had awareness and knew that I was not happy where we seated first. Then he talked to the hostess to make sure we moved to the regular dining area. I like that he was on the ball. Bravos millennial you were taught right.

Had the seared tuna salad. The tuna was good but the salad was soggy and not very tasty. So I didn’t finish it.

Thanks for your wonderful 5-star review, we appreciate your loyalty! Amanda S., Events Coordinator - Moxies Downtown Toronto
I had then linguini from the winter special menu and it was outstanding on the recommendation of the waitress. I also LOVE the 1/2 price wine deal on Wednesdays. I will keep coming back.
While the food was good and the service attentive, what made this experience stand out was the cool new electronic gadgetry that the kids in our party were provided to keep them occupied. Kudos to whomever thought of acquiring and using them!
Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. Housemade gelato and linguine special were surprisingly very good.
Great as always
Quick lunch with friendly service and good food. Met my last minute Tuesday lunch expectations.
Nice ambiance.
Diego was very attentive and accommodating
so much so - we went back for dessert :)
Service was slow; chicken breast sandwich was very dry; burger tasted like it was from a frozen patty.
Way too loud. Not good for any occasion. Chose location as it was close to client’s hotel. Won’t go back unless Noise level is dealt with. Most industry colleagues avoid this location slide to noise. Food service was slow but food was very good.
Could not conduct business with client and was rather embarrassed with my choice of restaurant. Kept apologizing to my client for the noisy atmosphere.
I would recommend this place to people that enjoy noisy environments and don't mind having to talk loud.
The first half hour was ok , as requested a table away from the loud noise but once the tables in the area started to get occupied, it got very loud.
