| - The thai beef salad is one of the best lunches I've had in a while!
I know what you're thinking--"It's a damn steak salad... how great could it be?!" Well, not only was it tasty, but also unique with cold, broken rice noodles, lots of veggies and a phenom vinaigrette. It's almost like a thai chop salad, but with delicious, perfectly cooked and seasoned beef skewers laid on top. Really, really good people. I could taste a very small amount of mint used, which I'm typically not a fan of at.all. But, in this instance, it didn't bother me!
I also loved the vibe on the patio for lunch. It was laid back, while still being upscale and the service did not falter. I must say that inside the restaurant looked rather stale, but that's just from walking through to 1) be seated outside and 2) use the restroom. That's not to say that I'd never come back to eat inside Moxie, but outdoors is definitely my preference. Besides, this outdoor lunch experience was my very first time at Moxie.
If you follow my reviews you know how important ample parking is to me, and Moxie definitely has that. But, I will say it's sort of out of my way to get to this side of town--and honestly, it looked a little bit out of place amongst the corporate buildings and plazas I actually drove past the restaurant once and then found it once I turned around. I guess that's the struggle of a Near Westsider discovering east side gems.
