Been here twice within the last month and had a great experience both times. The first time was with friends and then took family from out of town this past weekend. It was a hit. Great atmosphere with fantastic food, signature holiday drinks, and good service...everything you want!

Absolutely had a marvelous time with my daughter! The food, esp the mahi mahi tacos, were delicious! Our server, was so nice and patient. I’m sorry I’m not able to spell his name. We ate at 10 pm in the room with swings! So much fun! 🤗

Overall, we were very happy with everything at Le Moo. The only thing I would not write this experience as a five out of five is the speed of getting our food. It took quite a while to get our appetizer and soup. And within about two minutes of receiving those items, our entrées arrived. I don’t mind if we are still finishing up our appetizer when we get our entrée, but at this point, we had barely begun. And to be honest, the table really just wasn’t big enough for all of our items at once. Otherwise everything was superb. And even though it took a little bit to get our appetizer and soup, our server was very good. I could tell she was very busy. Also, because they are celebrating their 10th birthday, you get a toast of champagne when they walk you to your table. That was an awesome touch. Thank you so much for that. We will be back for sure!
