    Was with my nieces for a theatre night - this place was perfect! Awesome attitude from staff - great kids menu, crayons provided for drawing and everyone felt at home (with a couple of memorable pieces of artwork resulting). Loved the menu choices for kids and adults. Perfect for pre-show dining) - and noise level still allowed for easy conversation. Will return!

    It was extremely loud!!! Large groups should be seated in private dining areas. I could barely hear my friend all night!! The food was fine but there was an issue about my friends bill and the waiter was rude and told her “ to read the menu before ordering” ???? This is Not how you solve issues!! 000000 costumer service!! He also barely checked on us and brought the bill out before we even asked. Brought out tea without sugar and had to ask another waiter to do so after waiting for ten minutes…. Not the best night and we are both pretty regular at your establishment. As a matter of fact, I planned our Christmas party at Moxie‘s at Yorkdale yesterday and it was wonderful. Very disappointed
