    We had a delightful family dinner at Pasta Moon with our 92-year-old grandfather, and it couldn’t have been more special. Italian cuisine is his favorite, yet this was his first time visiting Pasta Moon—and he absolutely loved it! He ordered the puttanesca, featuring mussels, clams, and scallops, which put a unique and delicious twist on the traditional dish. Another standout was the lasagna, which was a big hit with our group. The portions were incredibly generous, and the service was impeccable—the staff made sure we always had everything we needed. It’s clear why this restaurant has been a beloved favorite for so many years. Pasta Moon truly delivers a memorable dining experience!

    Great restaurant for a date night or catch up with friends. I liked the fact that street parking was plentiful and the restaurant had a lot of open space. Our group started with the grilled oysters and calamari. Oysters had a great buttery flavor and the calamari was standard. The beet and salmon salad was delicious and fresh. For our mains we had the Ribeye, gumbo, and pasta with scallops. The gumbo was packed with seafood and flavor, a must get. The ribeye was standard, but ours came a little over cooked. Lastly if you are looking for a cheesy seafood pasta they got it. I liked this restaurant a lot from the food, the staff, and the ambiance.
