    The choice of food is very limited, and the drink is OK level.

    The food was FANTASTIC and unique as far as Boston offerings are concerned. Drinks were excellent as well. There are only a couple of tables and everything else is bar seating which is not very comfortable. If the seating was more comfortable I think people would be inclined to stay longer, spend more, and treat it as a spot for an excellent meal (which it is) and not just a bar for drinks and a quick bite (which it also does very well). Our server, Tim, was amazing. Very attentive, very kind, very informative, very generous. We will be back soon!

    Moon bar is fun and classy. It has a limited menu but the prices are decent and the food really good. Just wish the seats -- stools -- were more comfortable.

    Moonbar is the most underrated restaurant in Boston. The food is so flavorful and interesting. The best cocktail menu. The bartenders (who are your waiters as well, the restaurant is essentially bar seating only) are lovely, so warm and make incredible drinks. The lime semifreddo dessert...I have no words. I'm still thinking about it!

    What a great experience. My friends, and I always walk by this place, and never stopped in. We finally made it, and it was fantastic. From the ambience to the service, the food, and the drinks. What a great experience we will be back.

    Delicious food and drinks and a great atmosphere. A group of 3 of us came here for my birthday dinner, and it felt perfect for a special occasion like that. Love the decor inside, and everything we ate and drank was wonderful. The drinks were particularly well balanced and beautifully presented--I loved the "Major Malfunction" that came in a coconut milk can! Service was slow but the servers themselves were all very friendly and helpful. I wanted to try every item on the menu, so I definitely hope to return!

    Lovely cocktail with an unorthodox fusion menu. Although the atmosphere wasn’t as vibrant as I had imagined the food was great and the value can’t be beat. Will come back another time

    I loved the last experience so much that I went back with my spouse. Once again, everything—from the food to the service and the welcoming staff—was wonderful. Looking forward to the next visit.
