Wow….i just looked at the menu and i don’t think there is a single item that couldn’t be purchased in a high school or hospital cafeteria. Our neighborhood is like the culinary armpit of new york city.

THANK you, cranberry, a cafeteria! I was reading through the menu trying to figure out what the hell it reminded me of. Certainly not somewhere I’d eat, nor somewhere my parents would have taken us. And I’ve been known to eat at Fresh Choice, so it’s not like I’m fancy over here.

Occassionally a place like this can surprise you and have an odd great item. Like the nachos, or the fried wantons will be great.
But probably not.

Speaking of, is there anywhere even close to BH to get good hot wings? How about delivered?
I will never go back to BWW in atlantic terminal. The wings are decent, but the service is the worst I have ever had in any restaurant, ever.

I peeked in and I didn’t see a playspace or anything that would make it really “kid friendly.” I wonder if they plan to build one? Otherwise I don’t think I’d go…might as well go to a regular restaurant.

Yeah the wings at henry are pretty decent. Good size, good amount, tasty, very good blue cheese. Could stand to have a few more heat levels and/or flavors though. I likes it hot!

Can someone explain the artwork in this poster? The yin-yang image I kind of get, given the Asian bent of the menu, but what’s with the naval mine silhouette? Eat here and you’ll blow up?

Uhh, I think it’s a captain’s wheel, not a mine. But good catch on the seafaring allusion. I’m guessing it’s related to their location on Atlantic down by the waterfront.

[...] The Moxie Spot [81 Atlantic Avenue] has been open for about a month now so we thought it was time to go and check it out. Since the eatery is meant as a fun place for kids, BHB phoned up our kid correspondents to get their take on Brooklyn Heights’ newest neighbor. [...]

The Moxie Spot. A good neighborhood eatery. I had the grilled salmon with spinach and brown rice and a small salad bar plate. All the food was fresh and tasted great. In addition there are a vaiety of spicy sauces that can be added to the dish and/or salad.

All the other people eaing there appeared to be happy with the food.

There are organic chicken dishes and a lot of ice cream deserts and topings for children.

The childrens nursery/day care area is on the second floor.

For us the servie was fast. We ordered at the counter by checkin items on the menue and within 6-7 minutes all the food was delivered to our table. Recommend the other posters give a closer look.
