Three Entrances of Moxie

The Moxie Spot [81 Atlantic Avenue] has installed a cool door offering three sizes of entrance – adult, kid and pet.  No word on when the family fun restaurant will open.

    I’ve seen it open, but only for private parties. Not exactly the best way to drum up business.

    They did a free family dinner, one seating, on Saturday. I heard mixed reviews, but wish them luck!

    I was told by local plumbers, they just got their gas turned on recently (last week), can’t cook without gas..I’m sure they’ll be open soon

    I am fascinated. The menu is a mix of American and Asian dishes. Given the exploding number of half-white, half-Asian children roaming around the Heights, this concept can’t fail!

    Every time there’s a new report of swastikas in BH (the most recent being the other day) I think “how does this happen here, in Brooklyn, in this day and age?” Then some bonehead like Remmy posts. Question answered!

    I love that there’s a handle on the pet door.

    i celebrate mixed-race heritage and menu diversity.

    unfortunately racism is everywhere, bh included…

    There is a sign on the door that says they will open on the 10th.

    Hi everyone!
    I am ten years old, and I just went to The Moxie Spot this evening. I LOVED IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Okay. First thing, THE DOOR! (Door=doors. Because there are THREE doors to The Moxie Spot, all different sized. The big one (for adults) the medium on (for kids) and the tiny tiny tiny one (for pets/dolls/imaginary friends who are the size of my finger)

    Then there is the food. It is really good – I recommend the sesame noodles or the Fettucine Alfredo) There is lots of pastries and deserts, as well as salad and other stuff. They have a really wide range of offerings.

    There is the ground floor, the upstairs, and the downstairs.
    It is really creative – lots of kids stuff, (just like the whole restaurant.)
    The upstairs: There are chairs/tables for people to sit and eat. There are LOTS OF LOTS OF LOTS OF LOTS OF kids toys up there. Even a FussBall thingy. As always, really amazing.
    The downstairs: Bathrooms. Sink. Thats all. Just joking! Well, actually… not just joking. It isn’t just a bathroom and a sink its REALLY COLORFUL! And the sink – awesome! Three taps. It is like the front door. One for pets, one for kids, one for adults. IT is sorta like a staircase.

    ALSO NOTE: There is a telephone thing on each floor, and you talk into it on each floor. No electricity, but if someone else puts the telephone on a different floor on their ear, they can hear what the other person is saying.

    There is lots of other stuff in this awesome, creative, did I say awesome?, kid-friendly,kid-friendly,kid-friendly,kid-friendly, and last of all, kid-friendly. Oh and I forgot to mention – kid-friendly!

    Went to moxie tonight and was surprised. Thought it would be mediocre but kid friendly. I had 3 dishes – all asian and they were actually very nice, much better than the pan-asian fair in Park Slope. Also the Vegieburger my wife got was excellent, actually the best I’ve had anywhere. They evidently make it all there, nothing from a box or freezer. We’ll be back.
