There's only one reason for me to go to Moxie's, and no it's not for the cute waitresses... I come here because they serve Big Life beer on tap, which if you didn't know is brewed by Big Rock Brewery out west. Probably one of the last big Canadian brewers not owned by an international brewery... It's good to see that Moxie's is staying true to its western Canadian roots.
Moxie's cocktails (Bellini, Coronita cocktail, etc.) are pretty popular because they're a little flashy and get a lot of attention, but if you want to try something different, order the Iceberg, which is Margarita lime slush in your beer.
But... if you just order the Iceberg, you'll get lime slush with the Amber brew and the combo of bitter amber beer and slush doesn't work that well. It's not on the menu, but you can order the Iceberg Euro, which is a blond beer. Much better alternative to a Corona with lime or that Bud Lime crap.
The plus side is that the slush keeps your beer icy cold! If you want to really get creative, try the Big Life Euro with the slush they use for the Bellini for a tasty alternative to lime beer! -

Went here for drinks and a bit of food tonight. It wasn't bad. Food is pricey, especially for what you get. Burger and sweet potato fries, that were pretty lifeless, $18. Our server tried to up sell everything!
"Did you want vodka, gin, or Grey Goose?"
"Adding sweet potato fries is $3 but if you order it as an appetizer its $7."
"Would you like all your drinks Moxie sized?"
"Get the bacon burger, there's bacon on it and it's just a few bucks more."
"Get guac on your nachos, it's just a buck."
I get it, you're pretty clever and you wanna sell more because that means bigger tip but if you do it in a way where service is dismal and all we hear you say is spend more money, it makes me want to do the exact opposite and get the hell out. Unfortunately I was in a group of 8 and all of the rest were too lazy to leave. A smile from our server would've helped. His face read "fuck my life." and it just dampened the mood for everyone.
Food quality is okay. Nothing spectacular, but for the price I would appreciate it if the food actually tasted good and not just put on a fancy square plate with small metal ramekins for ketchup.. Drinks here a good, strong, and reasonably priced.
Overall, come here for the bar. Lots of T.V.s and the bartenders are nice. The bathrooms here are pretty swanky and have fireplaces. Next time I come here I am eating beforehand and only staying in the bar area. -

I went here for after work drinks on the patio. The patio is pretty good, relatively comfortable and somewhat shielded from the super winds up here. Some of my coworkers had food that they all seemed pretty happy with (steak salad, arugula salad, veggie spring rolls, tuna tartar and brownie).
We all had margaritas (Tuesday special), and they were decent.
The service was incredibly slow near the end, it took us a while to flag our server, then about half an hour to get our bill. -

2 Stars goes to dinner service at Moxies, 4 Stars if you only go for drinks in the lounge with good company... so I'll give an average of 3 stars.
PROS:
It's a good place for late night gatherings, watching sports games, or just having fun with your friends. Their drink list is elaborate and I've always been a fan of Margarita Tuesdays and Bellini Wednesdays! Prices aren't exactly cheap, but they are worth trying. The ambience is modernized with light fixtures and comfy booths and chairs.
CONS:
If you go for dinner, do not be surprised if your waitress does not come by for at least 10 minutes, and then disappear for another 10 minutes before you even get a glass of water. My order was mixed up for a dinner size meal instead of an appy and I had specifically pointed on the menu which item I had selected. I had not known until my bill showed up and how was I supposed to know the size differences? It was my first time eating the dish. I've made modifications to my menu item on another occasion and they did make any effort to change it.
I'll stick with the drinks.... you should too. -

Love the fries!
Atmosphere is good, service is good and overall the food is good without being too pricey.
Settle down after dinner with a glass of wine! -

Crap. Sorry I like ever moxies except this location. Service is horrible. Food takes forever to come and is not prepared correctly. Not good for client meetings. Worst restaurant for drinks in Richmond hill. Would not recommend it.
