"We have tried to give this place a chance more than 20 times because their cooks are good. We will not be going back EVER again. The front end is HORRIBLE and the manager is the WORST. Today was the last straw that made me want to review this place. Our sushi sat there ready for over 15 minutes (no it's not the excuse that they are under staffed) She cleaned dirty tables when no one was waiting to be sat down while our table was still dirty from our appetizers. Filled uprefills for pop on other tables waited in the back for 3 minutes for an appetizer to be done while walking past our food more than a dozen times. Sat by the computer doing NOTHING we finally had to walk up to her and ask for our food. Ifyou want service this is not the place. If you want good service go to Elk River or Maple Grove service is always on point."

"We were passing through on our way home from Minneapolis held off to get breakfast umtil we were outside of the busier areas. Our mistake. We stopped to fill the tank turned to the Yelposphere for direction on food. This time, y'all steered me wrong. On approach, the name made perfect sense the location was nice, with ample outdoor seating. Inside was a different vibe than outside, I'm going to go with a bit shabby. There are games available I like the idea of what I think this place could be. We took a seat, with one other table occupied. I believe our server was new as she had to check things like soup of the day whether or not they sell tomato juice (they do a big ole cup of it too). We were handed menus my husband pointed out that we needed to calculate an extra 20% above the menu pricing. I'd assumed gratuity was being included but he corrected me said that they have increased prices 20% and haven't updated the menus yet, gratuity still needed to be added. (I didn't see the notice personally). We ran right at $37/2 2 meals a tomato juice. We ordered and the food was up quickly too quick... they should have microwaved it another minute or so. The hashbrowns, chicken fried steak gravy were all luke warm. The eggs came out as ordered. No seasoning was added to the eggs or hashbrowns, which I'm ok with, as I like to control my salt intake. Simply put, it was edible but it wasn't good. One note, no flavor not to temp. I'd have been ok comparatively with a drive thru I'm not a fast food eater. Maybe we should have tried the desserts. I suppose that could be the real star here. Overall, the price wasn't crazy high, the food was edible the service was attentive. I didn't see a lot of options in the area next time we'll keep that in mind with our routing and stop planning. I can't in good conscience recommend eating here based on this experience I wouldn't come back."

"This establishment serves some really good donuts, and my personal favorite has to be the apple fritters. I have a deep appreciation for apple fritters and can be somewhat particular about their preparation. Typically, fritters should have a soft texture, but at Moon, the apple fritters have a firmer, crunchier quality. On the other hand, the other donuts are soft and taste like they’ve just come out of the fryer. While the fritters do have a fresh flavor, the outer texture is a bit tougher than I prefer. If only they could achieve that softer consistency! If they were both soft and fresh, I would certainly award them a 5-star rating."

"The service here is beyond bad and the food is mediocre at best. We weren't greeted and the staff seemed borderline upset to see us which was odd because they weren't anywhere near closing and the place was completely empty. We eventually sat ourselves after standing awkwardly at the front door for a few moments and grabbed out own menus. After about 10-15 minutes a server came and said that he would be with us in a moment. 45-50 minutes after that he came back to take our drink orders and explained that he had completely forgot about us. At this point we had been in the restaurant for an hour and didn't have drinks or even our food order placed in the system.The chips they gave us were super cold, cheap, and stale. The salsa seemed like it was watered down target brand salsa. The margarita he served us was clearly a cheap mix and tasted like Jose Cuervo Margarita mix that had zero added tequila. We ordered a chili relleno and it had zero flavor and seemed to be a from frozen microwave chili relleno from Trader Joes. The fajitas I ordered were 90% grilled onion and bell peppers with almost no meat. The food took another 15-20 minutes to get to us, so we had been at the restaurant for almost an hour and a half eating possibly the worst chips and salsa I have had at a restaurant. They never came back to check on us, see if the food was ok, refill drinks, or even give us a check. We had to go hunt down a server and ask for the check. We ended up wasting so much food because of the poor quality and inedibility of a lot of the food. I see a lot of positive reviews for this place which confuses me since the food and service here was REALLY bad. Maybe it is just that people in this town are used to Taco Bell or really bad Mexican Food because there is none available."

"My husband ordered the 4 cheese Mac n cheese with honey pepper chicken tenders. The tenders flavor was so good. The Mac would have been decent, but they poured the brown honey pepper flavor over the white Mac n cheese, and it tasted like pure sugar and not nice. I got the salmon, which was great, but the sides were horrible. I shared with my 13 month old and the brocolli had tablespoons of salt on it. My baby loves brocolli, and he made a face when puttimg it in his mouth. I tried it and spit it out. It was that bad. My server didn't get me a lemonade refill, and it was $4, and I didn't check on how the food was, so I didn't mention the brocolli. The garlic mash tasted like boxed mash potatoes, really watery. For those 2 meals, I wouldn't recommend it for $48."
