The food quality at this location is not the best. I come from Toronto and the moxies there has a much higher standard which is unfortunate for Ottawa. Salad is soggy and presentation sub par. They could do better. Ambience is nice and drinks were good and service great otherwise

Hey Joanna - Thank you for your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the ambiance, drinks, and service, and we'll definitely look into the salad, we apologize it didn't meet our standards.

First time at a Moxie’s, we were gifted an GC for our 25th anniversary. We do not have a Moxie’s in our city. Upon entering, the hostess was pleasant and greeted with a smile. Our server was great. When food was delivered, it was delivered abruptly. When our server came to the table we told him and he was accommodating. Food was delicious and cooked perfect. We look forward to our next visit to Moxie’s

We made a reservation and arrived on time, however the two hostesses at entry were aloof and not particularly welcoming. Once seated, it took over 15 minutes for a server to come by the table. Once services started, food and drinks were good, and the server was attentive. On departure, the restaurant was not busy, but the same two hostesses did not acknowledge us as we passed by. One of them busy with her face buried in her bright pink phone… not on a business call. Will think twice before returning. There are better options in the area.

I love Moxies! It’s been one of my go-to’s for years! Last night was no exception. My husband especially enjoyed his meal, which was beef vindaloo, which he substituted the beef with chicken. He’s a big eater, and although he was skeptical with the portion size, when he was finished he was quite satisfied, and not still hungry at all. He felt the spices were a perfect heat (he LOVES spicy food) and really enjoyed the chicken. He said next time he would definitely try the beef. I ordered the Avocado Cobb salad with chicken, and the ingredients and presentation were beautiful! The only suggestion I have for their menu is to indicate that the dish is actually an Avocado Cobb DILL salad, because the dish is covered in dill. I think anyone ordering it should be aware, simply because you need to like dill in order to enjoy this salad. I, sadly, gag at the taste/smell of dill. But, as a testament to how good Moxies’ food is, I powered through about 1/3 of it before I just couldn’t get any more down, as the dill was overpowering me. My husband, who incidentally likes dill 😂, tried the salad and loved it, and I completely agreed with him that it’s delicious! I did not complain about my meal, because the whole dill thing is just a personal preference, I just think it warrants being mentioned in the menu as there is that much of it all over the salad. We’ll be back soon!! Cheers!

Thank you for your thoughtful review and for being such loyal customers. We appreciate your feedback about the Avocado Cobb salad and will consider clarifying the ingredients in our menu descriptions better in the future. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!
