| - I heard about Moji from Instagram and somehow thought they only offered desserts, so it's taken me a while to come and visit. Their location is a bit hidden for first timers but nothing to complain about. We came here on January 30, 2016 and there was about 3 groups waiting in front of us. We waited about 20 minutes to be seated (which was expected given it's a Friday night and it's the holidays). If I'm being picky I would suggest more seating at the front for people to sit and wait.
We ordered the takoyaki, the chicken karaage rice bowl, the tempura shrimp w/ curry rice bowl, and the oreo ice cream cup w/ black milk tea as a dessert.
Chicken karaage rice bowl - the batter was a little bit too soft, not crispy enough and the bowl could use one more topping other than the steamed edamame beans, and two slice of cantaloupe. Flavour of the chicken was really good though. Overall I feel it could benefit with more sauce/topping for the amount of plain white rice given
Tempura shrimp w/ curry - VERY good, nothing to complain about. The shrimp was very crispy and flavourful and the curry was excellent, would definitely recommend this!
Takoyaki - Not the best we've ever had, but still very good. I would recommend this as well if you are in the mood for takoyaki.
Oreo ice cream cup - Apparently there are two flavours for the soft serve ice cream, strawberry or black milk tea. We got the black milk tea and it was EXCELLENT! Very pronounced tea flavour, not too sweet and the soft serve is not too overpowering with milk/cream flavour like other soft serve places (my personal preference). The oreo cookie bits and corn flake bits really added a lot of great texture to balance out the ice cream, so this is HIGHLY recommended.
Overall I would definitely visit again due to the relaxing atmosphere, and the value is very high for the amount they charge. Our bill came to $20 per person before tips. I would also like to mention that the service really stood out. The gentleman that served us that night was just wonderful and made us feel truly welcomed and relaxed and I hope they continue to uphold this level of customer service in the future as I will be returning soon for sure!
