Moxie's Grill & Bar (formerly Moxie's Classic Grill and commonly known as Moxie's) is a Canadian restaurant chain operating in eight provinces.
History
Moxie's began as a small deli and diner in Calgary, Alberta, Canada in 1986, before transforming itself into an upscale premium casual dining restaurant and lounge in 2004. Following recent economic and development booms, Moxie's has begun opening new locations rapidly across Canada. Their niche is providing clients with an upscale experience compared to their competition, with their bathrooms even being luxurious. The menu focuses on house-made ingredients with a global inspiration. Their direct competition would be other premium casual chains such as Earls (restaurant chain) and Cactus Club Cafe. Northland Properties Group owns Moxie's Grill and Bar, as well as Chop Steakhouse & Bar, Shark Club Bar & Grill, Rockford Wok, Bar One Urban Lounge and Denny's Restaurants.
Moxie’s restaurants feature dining rooms and lounges that are open seven days a week. The exciting lounge atmosphere and the seated restaurant area are perfect for any occasion - from weekend brunch with the extended family, a romantic meal with someone special, pints and appetizers after the game, or a bottle of wine with a tight-knit group of friends. Moxie's has daily drink specials, and patios across the country open throughout the summer.
Moxie's food is globally inspired comfort food. You can consistently enjoy a dinner that satisfies - whether you’re looking for a light summer salad or a hearty bowl of something warm.
In December 2006 Moxie's expanded its brand to include CHOP Steakhouse & Bar and opened the first location in Edmonton, Alberta. CHOP has since expanded and has locations in Edmonton, Kelowna, Richmond, Winnipeg, and Calgary.
