We had trouble finding it due to construction - we walked past it twice! Restaurant was small but we didn’t feel crowded. Lighting was dim so we had trouble seeing the menu. Server was attentive and gave a great wine recommendation. Would have appreciated a bit more direction on what to order for our group but we also didn’t ask explicitly. Food was delicious - we enjoyed the egg yolk raviolo and the tuna crudo and the truffle butter crostini. Would go again.

Great night out! Service, beer and pizza all 5 stars. Didn’t love the cookie but that was minor.

First time to the new Moxie's. Beautiful restaurant, stellar service and excellent food!! My only complaint was the noise level. We still had a really nice evening and I will for sure return but the level of the music could go down slightly so everyone at the table doesn't have to raise their voice to be heard.

About the restaurant

THE FOOD- It’s locally sourced and as fresh as we can get it; picked from local farms and moved from the field to our kitchen as quickly as possible to be put in the hands of our talented chefs who have created a menu chock full of honest flavour.

THE BEER- Expertly chosen, carefully stored, and perfectly poured, our beer selection is among the finest anywhere, with 120 different brands available we’re sure to have a variety that suits you no matter your tastes.

THE EXPERIENCE- Food & beer is a good start, but MKT has a lot more to offer. Our bar is stocked with every wine, spirit, and cocktail you’d expect from a high-end establishment. Our location gives us beautiful patio seating in the heart of Whyte Avenue’s entertainment district and from time to time, we’ll have live music & unique events to round out the nightlife experience.

At MKT we stick to giving you a genuine experience and our everyday shot at perfect food & beer.

The service was excellent! Waitress was attentive and very pleasant. Food was pretty good. Raspberry dragon Mojito was excellent. Chairs were worn out and sloping. It was a bit expensive but it was good. Love the decor inside, and the patio is gorgeous (although we didn't get to sit there due to weather)
