I came to Moxies in the Galleria with a group of friends to watch the World Cup Final, and it turned out to be a great place to catch a big game for us. Not every seat would Have been as good as ours was. We sat on the patio right in front of one of the TVs, and I was pleasantly surprised that they had the game audio playing both inside and outside. That's something you don't always find in the Galleria area, and it really made the atmosphere feel more like a true sports bar without sacrificing the nicer restaurant vibe. I ordered the Thai chili chicken, which was honestly really good. We also shared the guacamole, and one of my friends got the white chocolate brownie with ice cream for dessert. Everything we ordered was worth it, and we had a handful of drinks while watching the match. No specials on the weekend but happy hour M-F 3-6 My only real complaint was the Texas summer heat. The patio fans did essentially nothing when it's 100° outside, so while the outdoor setup was great, it would be much more enjoyable in the fall or on a cooler evening. Overall, I'd definitely come back maybe for a happy hour next or when the weather is a little more forgiving. read more

It was such a fabulous time at Moxies today, entirely due to our very friendly and professional server, Paul! His service was simply outstanding and he went above and beyond to make sure my companion and I enjoyed our meal! I enjoyed not only my meal but also the fun energetic atmosphere with World Cup games on their overhead TV's in their bar area. I also liked their open view kitchen concept which sparkled like new. I am already planning our return visit and of course I'll request Paul again! read more

Visited Moxie's last nite and Angie was our outstanding server. Great service the whole night and we spent several hours there while waiting on our guest who attended the Keith Sweat concert last nite. She made several suggestions on menu and drink options that we tried. We actually closed the place down. Always a good vibe. Pics below. read more

I came here for dinner on a Saturday evening around 7pm. Parking was kind of hard because the restaurant sits in a parking lot with several other businesses. The restaurant was definitely busy especially the bar. Outdoor seating that day was full as well. We sat at a booth behind the bar which was a nice spot. The atmosphere was intimate and lively at the same time. It took a minute for our waitress to come, but once she came the service was great. Our waitress was Jordan. It was my first time eating at Moxies and she had great recommendations. The menu had great options and a wide variety of dishes to choose from. The prices were decent $20 and up for dishes. I chose the Blackened Mahi Mahi and my friend chose the Steak Salad. The Mahi Mahi was a little overcooked, but overall the dish and its flavors were delicious. My friend loved her Steak Salad. The steak was tender and the dressing was light and spicy. I decided to get dessert and I chose the Toffee Pudding. It was AMAZING! The pudding was moist and not overly sweet to me. I would recommend Moxies for girls night and date night. The service, food, and atmosphere are definitely a reason to come back. read more

I love a good Moxies moment. I've been several times but this time my people and I were feeling very 'appetizer curious'. My go-to entree is the Chicken Madeira rigatoni. 9/10 for me every time, does it for me every time! Decided to try a cocktail this time around. Tropic Thunder was good, but of course mocktails are (in my opinion) always unnecessarily overpriced. This was no exception lol. For appetizers we tried: Hot Baked Crab Dip - definitely more on the cheesy side, would liked for the crab element to be more present. 5.5/10 Calamari - definitely one of the better calamari's I've had! A solid serving size, well fried, just enough seasoning on the crust and a good sauce to dip it in. 8/10 Steak bites - this one did it for us, very tastyyyy! Just would've been nice if more came with the serving for the price. 8.7/10 Again, Moxies is definitely a tried and true spot for me in the Galleria area. Cool for a dinner date, girls lunch, large party dining - plus the parking pretty manageable. Would recommend! read more

This review is long overdue, but anytime I think of a brunch place that is sure to satisfy anyone I am hosting, it is Moxies. On this particular occasion I ordered the farmers hash, maple glaze brussels sprouts and Keylime pie for dessert and everything tasted so good! I was a bit confused about the cherry sized tomatoes that came with brussels sprouts but they were some of the most seasoned and hearty size veggies I've had in quite some time. The Farmer's Hash had a good balance of bacon and sausage so that at each forkful, I got a taste of a little bit of everything to enjoy. The only downer of my order was the Lychee Martini; it almost tasted like a mocktail... The service itself was attentive and quick, especially for it to be a Sunday morning. I loved the spacious patio seating. I'll be sure to add Moxies into my regular rotation of Houston mainstays. read more

We walked to this place from our hotel, the Chifley Hotel. Great find - was looking for a place to watch World Series and MNF and score sat at a high top booth table and watched to my hearts content there is no sound on the TV's, just music turned up just a bit too loud. Nicely decorated and pleasant to the eye place. I think I was the only one wearing a jersey for the game. We weren't too hungry and I ordered a really tasty salmon and avocado cob salad. The food was very tasty and the salmon was cooked perfect with a nice sear on the outside. Our waiter was nice and friendly and recommend the salad to me. Thanks for the recommendation! read more

Moxies is one of those places that makes you feel very adult lol. It's a wonderful upscale spot for drinks and an intimate dinner. Came here to celebrate with friends and the service was great. The food was delicious and the drinks were perfect. The only complaint I had was the hostess greeted us with "yes?" as though we were interrupting her day. But other than that the staff was wonderful. When they brought out the special dessert for my friend, the entire kitchen was watching and it felt like the whole staff celebrated with us. Of course I'll be back read more

Preferencing this with the fact that our server, Paul, was awesome, attentive & didn't do anything wrong. The restaurant automatically added a 20% gratuity for just the two of us and explained that it was because it was the weekend and that they couldn't change it according to their policy (the manager came over and said she could offer a discount, but they couldn't edit or take off the mandatory tip). When we were seated in the rooftop area around 5:00pm they said to be aware that another party was coming at 6:30PM and so we were already in a hurry to clear us out. The mahi mahi tasted like frozen fish and mashed potatoes tasted like instant potatoes. We had the drinks put on a separate tab for expensing, but my mocktail the "Tropic Thunder" was too sweet & syrupy even after stirring. The waiter kindly replaced it with a rosemary mocktail which was much better. My boyfriend doesn't typically leave any food reviews but he said to me "I might start... if I can save one person from this experience it will be worth it." The quality of food for the price is just not a good value. After this meal we ended up having to go to Raising Cane's because we left hungry & disappointed. Will never be returning to this chain of restaurants. read more

omg we only did finger food but the steak bites , calamari potstickers and crab dip were insanely delicious

Went to Moxies on a random weekday. It wasn't busy at all during the day and parking was easy. I'm pretty sure on a weekend , parking would be harder as there are so many other establishments near the restaurant. Valet was also an option. We were seated upstairs where there was a full bar, TVs , and indoor/outdoor seating. Our waitress was pretty kind and lovely. While exploring the menu , there wasn't really a big selection to choose from. I decided to go with the chipotle mango chicken paired with quinoa. While I am not a quinoa fan , I did feel like this meal paired well together from the flavorful chicken to the sauce. The veggies were great as well. I truly enjoyed the meal I had! read more

Moxies - Chipotle Mango Chicken - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

A group of friends and I stopped by Moxie's for happy hour, and overall it was a decent experience with room for improvement. The Happy Hour Menu: * The drink options were okay -- nothing too exciting, but they did the job. * The happy hour bites didn't really appeal to us, so we only tried the guacamole from that menu. * Instead, we ordered from the regular appetizer menu -- and that's where Moxie's shines! Every appetizer we tried was delicious, and honestly, we were perfectly full just from sharing apps. Service: * Our server was friendly, but seemed to forget about our table a few times. * That said, whenever he did come back around, he made sure we had everything we needed. While this visit wasn't quite a five-star experience, the food was solid enough that I'll definitely be back to give it another try. The patio was open and spacious to my liking. I can see the potential, just hoping for more consistent service next time! read more

Moxies - Cute phot op - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

I haven't been to Moxies in years so decided to take my friend who was visiting Houston. We tried to make reservations online beforehand but it said none were available but we walked in and was seated upstairs. Nice atmosphere not loud and relaxing. I like that it has a good menu with diverse choices. It being a Canadian company makes sense. Our waitress was very nice and engaging. Gave us great drink recommendations. Now the appetizers were delicious the baked crab dip was sooo yummy and bread toasted just perfect. I don't like calamari but it was nicely seasoned and not super chewy lol the shrimp was yummy but the best part was the shishito peppers. Now the downside I ordered the cheeseburger and asked for medium well it was super pink and had to send it back. Now the new burger was overcooked but I just ate it. Think that was the downside plus it was three of us and they added automatic gratuity of 20% we had no idea and wish they had told us ahead of time. So FYI if you go on the weekends. Hence why I gave the rating I gave. read more

This was my boyfriend and I first time going to Moxie's. I really enjoyed it, and there was great atmosphere. The game was playing so he was able to watch the game as well. He didn't really care for the food too much, but I had the fried chicken sandwich and truffle fries Delicious! Our waiter name was Angie and she was so lovely the first time she came to the table. She had a great smile and interacted with us The whole time we were there and made us laugh which is a plus. Thanks for the great service! read more

Moxies is a great restaurant for a Sunday brunch. This restaurant provides an elevated chill experience with great food and drinks. Valet and plenty of free parking are available. I started off with a delicious pineapple basil margarita cocktail, which was quite refreshing. For the food item, I ordered the blackened shrimp tacos with fries. The tacos were absolutely divine and were a nice portion size. Our waitress was very energetic and provided great service. I will say my cocktail was loaded with ice but overall it was delicious. I can't wait to return for another brunch Sunday. read more

First time dining in, we held our friends birthday dinner on the outside patio and it exceeded our expectations!!! The restaurant is large with lots of bar seating, regular seating, and outdoor seating. Great location for larger groups as well. Lots of parking as it's in a shopping plaza, also has valet out front. Lots of TV's to watch any games going on and music was so good!! Our server was so attentive and our food came out really fast. Food was very good, highly recommend the steak frites. read more

Had a very pleasant brunch at Moxies the other day and had an excellent time. We had no reservations and originally wanted to eat at the Honey Hole, but unfortunately wait times were over 2 hours.Then my friend suggested we try the moxies that was across the street. Wait times there was only 15 mins, which was perfect for us. Service was fast, friendly, and informative. I guess Moxies is a chain, but I personally never heard of it. Our server did a fantastic job of informing me on the menu and customer favorites. I ordered "The Big breakfast" it comes with eggs, your choice of sausage or bacon, a roasted tomato, I opted to have French toast instead of the multi-grain toast, and finally I got potatoes with ketchup. The breakfast definitely lives up to its name, portions were humongous. I was definitely full. They have great options for mimosas, but I had a mocktail instead and found it to be quite tasty. I also had them make me a faux mimosa, made with OJ and sparkling water. Overall, it was a great brunch! I have no complaints! read more

Moxies - The Big Breakfast - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

What a great place to hang out with friends. We had a wonderful dinner with our group this evening. The service was great and we all agreed being on the second floor was ideal. It's not a place in the evening to take little ones though. The tables are pretty close together and there is definitely no room for them to run around. The room was filled with lots of conversation and sometimes hard to hear at our table of 8 but that is to be expected on a Sat night almost anywhere in Houston. Make a reservation because they fill up fast and they also do offer valet parking. Gratuity was automatically added to our ticket for a party of 8. They said they had a dress code but I saw a lot of different styles come in. So if you are in The Galleria area and want to hangout with your friends, give Moxies a try. You won't be disappointed with the food & drinks. Emilee was taking care of us and she was fabulous. read more

Moxies has been one of my favorite brunch and happy hour spots in Houston for a long time! For starters, I met the love of my life here for our first date in 2019 . The vegan options are always good and they never miss. The service is wonderful and typically pretty fast. I love the vegan potstickers and the newest addition vegan mushroom rice! read more

Enjoyed a nice brunch after church with some friends. Since our group was large, we had 2 servers. One named Leah and can't remember the other but both ladies were wonderful and took care of us well. The brunch menu is not my personal favorite but I was able to find things that I enjoyed such as the Brioche bites and the hash. Overall, thoroughly enjoyed my experience. read more

The food here was amazing, seriously! Everything tasted super fresh and flavorful. I got the tuna stack and the salmon Caesar, and both were perfect. The tuna had just the right balance of flavor and texture, and that crispy bread that comes with the salad? So good. The vibe inside is really nice, modern, lively, and fun- but it does get a little crowded and noisy at times. Still, the energy adds to the experience. Definitely a spot I'd come back to. Service was quick and our server was pretty attentive. read more

Popped into Moxie's in the Galleria area for a weekday lunch with a friend, and wow--we were pleasantly surprised! We grabbed a table on the patio (great weather, great people-watching), and the vibe was chill but still polished. I went with the steak salad...and let me tell you, it was so good. The steak was cooked perfectly, super tender, and the whole thing was fresh, flavorful, and really well put together. My friend had the shrimp tacos, and she loved them--generous portion, great flavor, and not greasy at all. Service was friendly and on point without being overbearing. Definitely a spot I'll be keeping in rotation for lunch dates or even happy hour. Sit outside if the weathers nice. It's the perfect mix of relaxing and stylish. read more

Went for a late night drink but ended up ordering some appetizers as well! First off, the vibe of the place is more on the elegant side and has two floor seating outdoor/indoor. Lighting is pretty dark on the inside and electronic music is playing (not the ideal place if you want a quiet date night) but I love the aesthetic of the place. Food, drinks and food came out really fast and service was great. The server was very attentive and made sure to check on us frequently and made sure our area was nice and tidy after finishing a plate. read more

We went to Moxies on a date night with two other couples. Reservations were made about a week in advance and they were excellent about changing it by 15-20 minutes the day of. Super cute place, valet parking is available. We didn't valet but found a spot. We were seated upstairs in a quiet area in the back. It seems they were putting all the groups in the back. We ordered drinks and apps, the nachos were huge and filling. I will get them again to share with the whole table and maybe the neighbors. We also ordered steak bites and lettuce wraps. For the meal, the salads were huge and I had a breadstick from one. Super good. I ordered the shrimp tacos with fresh jalapeño. My husband ordered a burger. Overall excellent place for a group, date night or girls night out. Plenty of seating inside or out on the patio or in the balcony. read more

A random guy in my hotel elevator overheard my conversation looking for dinner options and he highlighly recommended Moxies. It was in walking distance of our hotel, so we decided to go with the recommendation! The upstairs dining was packed on a Tuesday night (downstars bar was empty), but we were seated right way by the friendly hostess. I opted for a simple Ceasar salad with grilled chicken: house-made classic dressing, rustic croutons, grana padano, garlic ciabatta baguette, $23.50. Good flavors all around. My coworker ordered the Chicken Madeira Rigatoni: pan roasted chicken with creamy mushroom & madeira wine sauce, rosemary, lemon & garlic ciabatta baguette, $23. He polished it off in no time and raved about it. A pleasant surprise in the Uptown area! read more

Picked this restaurant as I needed a location in the galleria for my boyfriend and I's parents to meet. Atmosphere for dinner at 7pm was great, with friendly staff, comfortable seating for a party of 6, and a menu with variety to suit a variety of palettes. Only complaint was because we were a larger party and took a bit longer to decide and were chatting, it felt like the server meant to give us extra time and ended up forgetting about us and we had to ask someone else for her to come back. read more

I like Moxies. Came here for Mothers Day. I tried the salmon & had a glass of wine. I was my servers last day & she made a great impression. The service was fast & efficient.

In town and met friends here for dinner. We had a great time out on the patio with its upbeat vibe. We ordered a bunch of appetizers and shared among the 6 of us. They have an extensive Drink Menu.

Food: Hot Baked Crab Dip- savory with lump crab Potstickers- delicious with a mango salsa Steak Bites- one of the favorite of the group, tender steak with a yummy horseradish type sauce Nachos- we added chicken and it's a huge portion and great presentation Service was excellent, our server checked on us frequently and gave good suggestions.

Food, drinks, entertainment Went in for an early December team lunch on a Friday. Reservation for 8 so the first time to book for a larger party is 11:15 am. Parking lot is shared with Old Navy, Marshall's and a slew of other stores. There is also complimentary valet parking. Not sure what the first floor looked like because we were taken straight upstairs. There is an elevator all the way in the back with a two person capacity. It's a pretty, clean nice restaurant. They spent time and money into the aesthetics and did a great job. There is a bar and TVs (sports). You can see into the back area where the kitchen is laid out. (Partial glass) Moxie's offer a variety of food. Appetizers start at $14. Entrees start at $15 (Caesar salad) on upwards. Our table ordered burgers, veggie bowls, mahi chicken sandwich, vegetarian red curry, chipotle chicken and blackened mahi mahi. One person ordered the appetizer dumplings. The burger people all said it was delicious and huge and the fries were crispy and tasty (you can sub fries for a side salad). The vegetarian options - veggie mushroom bowl and red curry were liked as well. The curry bowl was filled with peppers which was somewhat of a minus to my coworker. The mahi mahi chicken sandwich and chipotle chicken were "so good". I ordered the blackened mahi mahi. It came on a bed of mashed potatoes with chorizo and corn and salsanado. Mahi mahi was cooked perfectly. Blackened but tender. The mashed potatoes were a perfect complement. The chorizo and corn mixture worked really well and added a little spice. The only negative thing was they topped it with pieces of avocado. The avocado was not ripe. It was so hard and had no flavor. Could have left it off. The place is very pretty and had a nice vibe. The majority of the wait staff were really pretty young women. They were all very friendly and on their game. And really gave off good energy. It was a really nice experience for us and everyone seemed to enjoy it. Def interested in visiting again. read more

I wanted to love this place. Went on Monday night at 6pm. The place wasn't terribly crowded with lots of open tables. We didn't have a reservation and got seated right away upstairs in a comfy booth. The waitress was lovely and I had the steak salad which was really good. I would give this place a higher rating but honestly the noise level was so loud it ruined the evening. My friend and I were yelling at each other and continually couldn't hear what the other one said. There was only one other table in the room, the noise was all from the TV's/Music. I understand having it louder for a game night, but when your patrons can't even communicate, we don't exactly ever want to come back. Maybe order to go or something, but not sure I can make myself go back. read more

Lovely venue, good service, and great food. It is for all intents and purposes an upscale/expensive sports bar with very loud background music that makes it uncomfortable to enjoy a conversation with your meal. Despite all its attributes, I won't return. read more

Highly Recommend. To start we were given the option of sparkling or still water which I have never experienced in the States. Our server was very professional and was the perfect mix of checking on us just enough but not too much. She gave great recommendations about the food and the drinks. The food was spectacular. The salad was a hearty amount of greens and fresh tuna with some delicious peanut and cucumber sauce. The Mahi Mahi was cooked perfectly and the mashed potatoes were creamy but not over done. And it all went so well with the pesto drizzle. If you get the mango chicken you better be very hunger or prepared to take some home. There was probably close to 12oz of chicken on top of a bed of delicious quinoa and vegetables. I'm not exactly sure what the yellow sauce was but it was also fantastic. read more

This is a combo of 2 visits (bc I forgot to post the first). The first time I came to Moxie's was for a friends birthday. I was and am still in shock of how big the 1lb nachos are! It's sooo much food and you'll def have leftovers if not sharing. The most recent time I came was for my husband's birthday. This was his first time there and he really enjoyed it. It was a nice evening so we were able to enjoy dinner on the patio. They even brought out a huge slice of ice cream cake to celebrate his day. read more

My sister and I were traveling to Houston for a concert and decided to try Moxie's on a whim. We made reservations while still on the road and arrived to a short wait, but it wasn't long before we were seated with a smile. Our server was warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable. We ordered the steak bites, calamari, house salad, and sweet potato fries. Everything was absolutely delicious. Each dish had its own distinct flavor, yet everything complemented each other beautifully. The steak, in particular, was cooked to perfection. The only downside was the lack of professionalism from the hostesses at the entrance. They spent most of their time chatting and laughing with each other and seemed visibly irritated whenever they had to stop to open the door or assist guests. I observed this during the short wait and noticed the same behavior with several other diners. Their demeanor gave off the impression that guests were an inconvenience. Thankfully, our server completely turned the experience around. Her exceptional service made us feel welcomed and well cared for. read more
