When I was on the highway on my way over there, I kept thinking – ’I know what Moxies is about – I’ve been to the East end location – its great but its not spectacular.’
Well – I take it back. This place was IMPRESSIVE. WOW. It was soooo sexy.
There are two sides. A cool blue theme on the right side – quiet and sleek, and the red theme room on the left side – the louder more firey side with a HUGE bar. Seriously the bar is like 10 stories high. It’s VERY sexy. All the characteristics of the other large moxies – but escalated.
Here’s what we ordered – it was absolutely delicious, I recommend it:
Ahi tuna crisps: sushi-grade ahi tuna seared rare in a sesame-dijon crust, presented on a ginger shiitake salad with crispy wontons and lemon aioli.
Avocado spring rolls: diced fresh avocado, sundried tomatoes and lime juice rolled in a crispy pastry, served with sweet chili sauce.
Skillet of garlic mushrooms (vegetarian): delicately sauteed with fresh garlic, lemon, pepper and butter.
Tandoori wild salmon salad: warm tandoori marinated wild salmon filet perched on a bed of mixed greens, tossed with mango, onions, sunflower seeds, water chestnuts and a mango and sweet chili dressing, served with melted brie on naan bread.
Shanghai noodles: your choice of chicken or prawns sautéed in a ginger-garlic sauce with shiitake mushrooms, shanghai noodles, baby bok choy and julienne vegetables; intensify the spice, tell us how spicy you want it: mild, medium or hot.
