    Saturday in the summer, but, even with that, the service was just not what anyone competing with all the other available stops in the City wants to rely on. They forgot one of our meals. took over 7 minutes to find anyone who cared to investigate. They finally brought out a congealed pasta dish. No apology. Basically ignored thereafter. No one asked about our service or needs. Had to flag down our server to get dessert coming with kids meals. Came out 15 minutes later. Melting. Clearly, again, sitting in the back waiting for server to deliver. Asked for check twice. More waiting. Not expecting 5 star service, but basic care, attention and follow up should be a required minimum management expectation for its staff even on busier nights. Seem to be missing a manager. Should not be that hard to meet that minimum bar.

    Though we reserved a high top NOT in the bar we were seated in the bar. It was very noisy. We weren’t able to have a conversation. The food was good , the service was good, but it was just too loud.

    The restaurant wasn’t crowded, and the music felt too loud. I would have left if it weren’t for the reservation and the subsequent concert which gave us a limited dining window. 2 TVs in my line of sight and 2 for my dining companion as well. Would have preferred fewer. Nothing on the menu really excited me, but my potstickers were quite tasty.
    Moxies - UniversityResponded on June 8, 2025
    Thank you, Kate, for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the potstickers and will consider your thoughts on the music volume and TV placement for a better experience. We hope to see you again soon! Sam Hall, General Manager

    We enjoyed our dinner at Moxie’s. The potsticker appetizer was delicious! My Prawn Thai curry was amazing and my husbands beef dip was enjoyable. For dessert it was keylime pie - highly recommend it. All in all it was a wonderful start to the evening.

    Food, beef dip and mahi mahi dishes, were very good, as usual. The Parmesan Truffle fries were not truffle at all (my our opinions), which was disappointing considering that’s why we ordered them. The noise level was so loud we had to raise our voices and could barely hear each other - we did consider leaving. There was a party vibe at this location. In the future we’d go to another location where we can enjoy our meals in a normal restaurant environment.
