I went to moxies for a dinner with my friends, and our service was not great, they messed up our order and the steaks tasted terrible. Would not go to this location again. read more

Environment was nice and clean, food was good and came out in a timely manner. Servers were nice but managers came to ask how things were going frequently which was interrupting conversation read more

Our first time at Moxies, we ordered the wings as appetizers, they were good. I ordered an Asian bowl which was amazing, and the wife ordered the shrimp tacos, she really enjoyed those. Our server was attentive and even the manager helped out and asked if we were still good. I really enjoyed our experience and if ever visiting Toronto again I'd return. read more

made two trips to moxies in October. First trip was not so great because of the order and service BUT Dorothy, the manager, went above and beyond to create a better experience. She personally communicated with me to enquire about the issue and apologized. She knows proper customer service and is super friendly. I was able to return to moxies and enjoyed my meal. I was greeted by Sam who was equally kind and threw in a free dessert!!!! How cool and delicious read more

Do you enjoy slow, borderline-rude service? Do you enjoy mediocre food cooked and served by high schoolers? If so, then you'll enjoy this Moxies! Poor planning usually leads me here, as Moxies usually has space for (with good reason) on Friday and Saturday nights while Earls and Jack Astor's have lines out the door. Bias to the lounge area here, but the TV situation isn't the best; they're quite small and not placed for optimal viewing, especially when they're running two different shows. Now, if you do manage to get a seat at the bar right in front of the TV, be ready to get asked to move down by the bartender so he can accommodate his friends. Alternatively, tell him to buzz off (like I did) but beware that your level of service will drop from bad to horrible. Don't forget your earplugs either, the music here is louder than at Rebel. On the bright side, Moxies' nachos are the best! read more

Moxie's is an amazing bar with a good selection of appetizers and main courses (ranges from steaks to vegetarian platters). I have ordered a Medeira Rigatoni (Pasta with Mushroom, Chicken and Rose Cream sauce). The pasta was quite delicious and I consider ordering it next time as well! The place also has amazing drink specials. When I came out on Thursday, they had 50% off Margaritas ($6 dollars instead of $12). So, of course, I got some as well! read more

You can't go wrong with Moxies! We came here after going mini-golfing, and we were famished! We shared the tiny tuna tacos to start, and I had the tofu lettuce wraps, and the watermelon sangria. The drink was very tropical! Food came out very quickly, our waiter was friendly and the booths are always comfortable. A solid choice for food in this area! read more

My friends and I arrived around 7PM and we were first asked if we wanted to eat in the lounge (age restricted) or dining area- we chose the latter and waited around 10 minutes for an open spot. Our server was Christina and she was great. She gave us water without asking and her service was spot on! I ordered the blackened chicken burger with a side of sweet potato fries. I have been to restaurants similar to Moxie's and their portion of fries were always small. However, the portion of fries I got at Moxie's was grande! I loved the environment, atmosphere, timing of food preparation, taste, and experience. I would totally return! read more

Dora was an amazing server! The food was great and where we sat was the perfect setting!

Lovely Staff here!!! Lost a wallet one night and they had it saved for me the next morning!! I recommend everyone to visit this location! Amazing food great service read more

I didn't have high expectations for the food going to Moxies but it was worst than I thought. Ordered a steak medium rare and it came back well done. Mentioned this to the staff who were able to get me another one and it was still overcooked. I decided to just stick with the second one. The reason they get two stars and not one is because of the staff who were extremely friendly and understanding. However, the food is just not great here. If you're looking for a place to grab a quick bite or drink before a movie, maybe this location is alright. However, avoid the steaks and don't expect anything outstanding. read more

The perfect summer salad. I loved all the toppings. The salmon was cooked perfectly. It was light yet filling! The presentation was beautiful. Such an amazing dish! read more

Came here for afternoon bite with someone. The location is similar to other franchise locations. One observation is that Moxie uses paper straws. According to the server it saves sea animals! And breaks down in 24 hours when wet! I just thought it was funny how he threw in sea animals-it must be what hes trained to say. The straws started to lose strength but was still functional. Good enough for the sit down. I mean they can also provide the option of NO straw and minimize that waste too. read more

One of the best Moxie's in the GTA, Been going there for years, and never got disappointed. Service is always good and friendly, more on the smaller side, especially the bar/lounge area, But all in all, great location read more

Special COVID review: Toronto is currently on "lockdown", restaurants are not allowed to operate dine-in at the moment. In neighbouring cities, the limit is 10 people for dining in. Moxies was able to accommodate on short notice. Usually I don't like restaurants I've never been to (I've been to moxies but not this specific one) but this wasn't a bad experience at all, actually quite the contrary... Not only were they able to accommodate on short notice, but they had the patio open as well. The patio has a bunch of propane heaters to keep customers and hungry patrons warm during a cold day. They were full inside and placed us on the patio. The server was amazing and checked on us as often as he could (the perfect amount is not too much but not too little either). It was cold on the patio, however, I asked if something inside became available, if we could be moved. The server said it's unlikely but yes. Our food came while we were on the patio and it was a little chilly. The server realized we were a little cold, so he asked if he could turn another heater on. They clearly care about service here, which is something I really take into account. We agreed and they now had 3 heaters for our one table. I ordered a steak fries, medium rare, the steak was a little too cooked for my liking but it was close enough. A bite into my steak and the server had gotten us a table inside. We moved inside and everything was pretty "normal" pre-covid - all the TVs are on, things run as they would before, the only difference is the tables are extremely spaced apart, most of which aren't in use. To end off the night, we had some complimentary dessert for my birthday. Not bad, considering I didn't know they do that and we go to other moxies restaurants quite a bit. Overall, a great experience. Well deserved 4.5/5! If the steak was cooked perfectly, I could justify a 5/5. Still not bad! read more

The restaurant serves smaller portions than usual. It is pathetic. I understand that due to covid, they need to make more money but serving customer with smaller portions and customer paying a full price is really expensive. It makes us hungry so quick! How can you enjoy the food and company and the ambience when you are not happy with the food and drinks that they serve... plus, I was trying to use my giftcard. I haven't used it since the covid started. We've tried swiping on the machine but kept giving us error. They could've at least done something but nope they didn't acknowledge and manager was inconsiderate. She didn't bother suggesting on how to resolve the issue.. never again.. ..responding to your email, your email is not even working. If you want to resolve this, you can email here instead. Thanks! read more

This Moxie's location is pretty much my go-to. The workers here are pretty friendly for the most part. This location can get pretty busy, but what else can you expect for Woodbridge lol. The food is pretty decent for the price as well. I'm not going to lie, I usually just like coming here to get the mosaic dip. It feeds four, or it can feed one if you're like myself :) the dip is phenomenal if you enjoy goat cheese and a little bit of spice. My one thing is I've gotten this app from this location three times now, and I've gotten the same dish at other locations and this location gives you some small ass pieces of naan bread. Like legit half the size of a regular piece at the Fairview location. I still ate it so, whatever lol but maybe adjust your sizes so they're all uniform? One was almost the length of my pinky lol read more

We came for Savour York Region after seeing photos from Jen K! This location was not busy at all for one that's right next to a large movie theater. We were seated immediately. We ordered the broccoli cheese soup and the caesar salad. Both were good starters. For entree, I had the dill salmon and she had the top sirloin. The dill salmon was tasty, though a little too overcooked for my taste. The top sirloin was too chewy, extremely very difficult to eat. For dessert, we had the mini bite of brownie and the mini sticky toffee pudding. Both were really good and sadly the best part of dinner. We mentioned the problem with the beef to the waiter and he was more than willing to send it back for another that we were very satisfied with. Overall 3 stars. Service was excellent but the food is hit or miss. read more

Like all Toronto I only go to Moxie's when I exhaust all the other options near me. Now with that said, it's damn right consistent and as delicious as I expect a well known chain restaurant to be. I had the calamari and steak dish with the stuffed baked potato, to be honest it was what I was craving atm and I was pleased but not blown away- the steak could have been more flavourful. Had an awesome dining experience though, Diana was a great server, shout out to her! Definitely recommend the wine Malbec Trapiche it was smooth and palatable great choice with the steak! read more

Moxie's is one of the better chain restaurants. The layout and decor is very nice..lots of muted lighting and dark wood furnishings. The bar is completely separate from the dining area so no sports or CP24 on in the background while your eating. We ordered the steak salad, salmon cobb and turkey sandwich. The steak salad was nicely prepared with crisp fresh lettuce and creamy goat cheese. The steak, which I asked to be well done was cooked garnished with goat cheese crostini's. The cut of the steak was very lean and it had a bit of char. Cobb salad presentation was impressive. Our server who was in training at the time was attentive. Washrooms were spacious and clean. read more

Soooo aside from coming to a restaurant expecting fresh food, we received mediocre service and cold food. I ordered the blackened mahi mahi, which came out cold. Which is odd seeing that the place was empty and thus the food should have been well fresh. So I ask them to make me a fresh dish and the same dish minus the fancy green sauce design comes out but this time with extremely hot avocados. Clearly they rejected the entire plate and replated. God knows how old the fish they decided to reheat and pass as freshly made was. So if you want food poisoning come to Moxie's. Bonus was they kept saying we removed the dish off the bill as if we are expected to pay for something that wasn't ate or as expected. They didn't even bother to comp the appetizer. Worst service by the manager read more

My boyfriend, sister and I were starving on Saturday after a long day. We were trying to think of a place to go to and decided to drive to the Colossus area and decide there, so we ended up choosing Moxie's. There were quite a few people waiting inside, but we were told the wait wouldn't be long and that was true. We literally waiting about 5 minutes and were given a really nice booth in the back. Our waitress came to see us pretty quickly too. I ordered the white peach Bellini and both my sister and boyfriend ordered Stella's. My drink was very good, but probably not strong enough which was fine. The Stella's were massive! We decided to share the calamari app and the kale and quinoa salad. I was so hungry that I forgot to take pictures (rookie mistake), but I can tell you that both were very good. The calamari wasn't the typical round-shapes pièces you usually get everywhere. They were still battered and fried, but the pieces were much larger. The dipping sauces were very nice. The salad was very simple, but also very refreshing with its lemon vinaigrette. Definitely recommend both. I ordered the honey garlic sirloin, my sister their shrimp linguini and my bf the shrimp and sirloin meal. My sister's pasta looked very good and tasted quite good too. The only thing that I would complain about was the lack of shrimps in her pasta. There was literally one large shrimp, a few tiny shrimps and some lobster. Again, I tasted it and it was very good regardless of that. My steak was very nice considering it wasn't the greatest cut of meat. It wasn't chewy at all and was done perfectly. The honey garlic glaze was yummy. My bf enjoyed his meal as well. We both agreed that ordering the baked potato with mashed potatoes inside was the best idea. We devoured it! The atmosphere was really nice, the service was great and the food as well. I would definitely come back here again! read more

Moxies Vaughan Colossus Restaurant - Big bar - Canadian (New) Near Me - Woodbridge, Ontario

My family and I were gonna to Earls for dinner but ended up here cause the wait for a table was way too long. Anyone who lives in the Vaughan area knows it's always super busy in any of the restaurants in the highway 7 area on Friday and Saturday nights. Most of the restaurants in that area won't even take reservations on the weekend. So it's always a mission trying to get a table. My family went for dinner on a Friday night. We got the Alfredo pasta, veggie burger and tacos. My parents are vegetarian and found that there were not too many options for them. We ordered the tacos from the happy hour menu. We didn't realize that one order only came with one taco until they came out. Our waiter didn't tell us about this. The menu wasn't clear how many come with each order. Wasn't very happy about this. Our waitress didn't check up on us after bringing the food out. Had to ask another waitress to refill our water. The food wasn't anything special. The pasta was under cooked, still hard. The tacos didn't have a lot of flavour, kinda bland. Wasn't impressed at all by the food or service. Won't be going back again. read more

It feels weird reviewing a franchise restaurant, and it has been awhile if ever I did so. I guess the reason why is that Moxie's in general have a decent CONCEPT and strength on certain points. This specific Moxie's near Highway 400 & 7 is most memorable because of their Patio where most of their other's also have as well. They really make an effort to replicate a HOMEY backyard patio environment with yard sofas, potted flowers, fireplace, etc... Secondly is their Wait staff and if you INSPECT closely, you will probably notice at some point that a movie comes to your head. It is because you have many Lara Crofts running by but instead of holding a couple semi-automatics, they are holding drafts and in this case the BIG ROCK Trio(3 oz Amber, 3 oz Euro, 3 oz Lime for $5.99 or so). The last time I checked Angelina Jolie was most popular due to the Tomb Raider movie. Well you won't miss her much here. We chatted for quite a while with our Lara Croft, real name Lisa and she was just awesome in every SERVICE aspect. The other waitresses are just as professional and they work as a team very well from my observation and YES there was lots of observation going on here. I had the Honey Garlic Chicken Wings(10/$9.99 or another 10 for $9.00 additional). I actually just kept eating it and didn't think about flavours, I guess I had other things on my MIND. We were talking about future plans! Don't think I'm so perverted, lol. 4 *Stars* for Service 4 *Stars* for Patio/Decor 3 *Stars* for Food/Pricing 3.5 *Stars* Overall read more

I visited Moxie's again last night with a girlfriend and had a much better experience. Our server Dominic was great, and we spoke with the General Manager, Mike and another manager, both were extremely friendly. My friend and I ordered the Vindaloo and chicken alfredo. I enjoyed both dishes. The pasta was a little bland but definitely better than my first time. I think for my next visit I will give the lobster pasta a try. I like the atmosphere of this place, the friendly servers, the comfy and intimate booths, and the outlet shops that are in close proximity to Moxie's. Some things on the menu are a bit pricy but I was pleasantly surprised that my total was ONLY $21 for a pint of Canadian and pasta! Unreal. For dessert, we shared the sticky toffee pudding. It was AMAZING. I think Moxie's definitely does dessert the best. Overall, I had a great dinner and will definitely be returning soon! read more

Tonight I had the extreme pleasure of having a steak and veggies at The Colossus Moxie's. The thing that made this such an over the top experience was the service, and the steak being cooked to absolute perfection. Perfect amount of salt, and a generous portion of artisanal root vegetables. The root vegetables were composed of multiple coloured carrots as well as some very nice zucchini. The Veggies were as good as the steak. I also need to be on a gluten free diet and also do high protein so this was the best match possible for me. Great food, great environment, and fast service. And to boot great music and wireless too! read more

Wonderfully decorated place, but I've had better experiences at other locations. It may not be a fault of this location so much, but I wasn't too impressed with what I, or my wife ordered (well, we split everything anyways). My wife ordered the fish tacos. There was a choice of fried or baked. I appreciate that the server described the preparation well, and he said that the baked option was indeed simply baked - not pan fried or with any type of sear on the fish. I find that a bit odd, as pan-searing fish tacos is a common (and IMO better) preparation. There wasn't too much special about the fried fish, and the tacos had way too much lettuce. In fact, the fish barely fit into it and the lettuce dominated the taste. I ordered the burger. I appreciated the beef quality and the side salad was good - but there could've been more taste to the burger, whether it would be more seasoning or an interesting sauce. From this visit, the meals were still okay due to good quality ingredients, but the preparation kept the meal pretty average. I was happy with the service though. read more

Restaurant chains have standardized food. They abandoned the home made food principle, and became a corporation which goal is to absorb as much market targets as they can. I am not into attending this kind of want to be trendy-social-gathering restaurant enterprises. However, this Friday we were on the area, we were hungry, and this place had the most stars on yelp. We went, I enjoyed the time spent in there, and the food was ok. The service and installations were optimal for every occasion. They divided the spaces so good, that when moving towards the washroom you feel you are passing inside a wooden hedge maze. They have deals on drinks; soup/salad with sandwiches; vast menu of food, and a kid's option with unlimited pop and dessert. I ordered the seared tuna salad with oriental notes. The tuna was fresh, made of good quality fish; accompanied with a half of avocado, edamame beans, nuts, cilantro, and a variety of lettuces. I really liked it... The sandwich of my friend looked too greasy, and after finishing it, she was totally immobile. But the fries were good. I guess it's an ok place to go. Not on my list of favourites or recommendations tho. read more

I've been to two dozen Moxie's across Canada during my travels and have never had poor service. Regardless of where you go the entire chain promotes attractive women who are professional, respectful and good waitresses. This location doesn't steer away from that model bringing a upbeat, trendy atmosphere in an area where many hotels rest close by. The service is good. The restaurant is sparkling clean and there's ample alcohol. Meanwhile, for the first time I wasn't thrilled with the food (and I've been to this location three times now). I brought a friend from Toronto who doesn't like eating at chains, which Moxie's is. He took a chance, ordered the Chicken and Ribs and it was a let down for the price you have to fork out. The ribs were ok, but the chicken was bone dry. My lemon pepper haddock was overcooked and didn't rival the flavor it's brought in my previous experience. And, my caesar salad was overwhelmed in dressing. I'm guessing the A-Team cooks were off on this night. However, for the most part this chain delivers much better than average food for a chain and I'm guessing if you come that experience will show. Unfortunately, our food wasn't at par, but likely the service was. read more

I called to make a reservation and was told that it's only first come first serve. I understand that but the lady on the phone was quite rude and was rushing me off the phone while I tried asking other questions. We still ended up coming here for lunch the next day with my group of friends. Our waiter, Paul was very accommodating and friendly. Sadly, it had to rain while we were dining at the patio but Paul moved us inside as soon as possible and got us new drinks. The transition turned out pretty smooth. Social distancing was well managed and sanitizing the tables after every customer. Don't really have much to say about the food but it was just average. My fiancé and I usually come here for dessert and get the white chocolate brownie with extra ice cream. I definitely recommend it for dessert. read more

Food, drinks and atmosphere are good especially for a chain. The service was pretty bad though all around. Just generally extremely inattentive, no personality, and seemed to take care of people they knew and off duty or prior employees with a much higher priority. read more

Going to a chain restaurant is something I do when I just can't decide or I don't want a long drive into the 416. Moxies is a place that offers a modern vibe, with a fairly diverse menu to please most people. This evening was the "let's go somewhere close" excuse as we dined here at the Woodbridge location. We ordered the calamari app to share, and three different salads as mains since we were all feeling the urge to try and be healthy, albeit I did order a beer while my two friends ordered water! The calamari came with shrimp and fires jalapeños and two dips, the flavour was good but for $14 the portion size was rather disappointing, maybe they realized we were trying to be healthy and cut back on the portion to help us. My salad was the asian blend and was enough to satisfy my hunger, the other two were well portioned and again all tasted great. Now I know some are probably reading this and saying the salads aren't always healthy, and they would be right! Moxies does provide the calorie count alongside each dish and yes I believe my salad was about 1000 calories. So for those dieters, this info will aid you in picking the appropriate dish. The service was okay, it could have be a little bit more attentive and more lively. I notch that up to the server probably being less experienced. Overall an okay experience for a place I don't really go to for dinner, just drink specials and apps. See you again at patio season. read more
