Happy Hour is real value for your money. The Lansdowne location provided great Christmas ambience inside and out. Also, a glass of bubbly on the way in was a nice touch. Very classy! Our server, was really great!

The food was very good and very affordable for the quality. The service was superb and the ambiance was great. The person assisting to our table was attentive to her customers and took time to ensure our experience was positive. We had also limited time while attending to a show at the NAC and she ensured that our food was served on time for us to make our way to the NAC. Would definitely recommend reservations on weekends as it tends to be quite busy.

I always love eating at Moxie’s. My choice was not the best today hence the four stars but it was still quite tasty just did not hit the mark. Had it before loved it but there was something different this time. The whole experience was nevertheless excellent as always. My favorite eating out resto.
