    Went here for an Anniversary dinner. We made a reservation but still were kinda sat in a smaller corner of the restaurant. The food was way too expensive for the portions you where given. I ordered the salmon and it was a bit too dry. The German butter cake for dessert was delicious but I cant say it was worth $16. They said the menu for desert rotate daily so I understand why they didn't give us a menu for it but knowing the price would have been nice. The décor was pretty though. The ceiling had fun patterns and shapes on it

    Highly recommend a change in the menu referencing gluten free options. While the menu says there are gf options there a far less available than indicated. Serving whipped ricotta with nothing makes no sense, serving a dish without a main component like huevos rancheros without potatoes is not the same as saying it can be made gf which their menu indicates. We spoke with the waiter and the manager and decided to leave. They cannot accommodate if you are gf please be aware.

    "The food was fantastic, and I would have loved to give 5 stars if the truffle parmesan fries had been better. Unfortunately, there was hardly any truffle flavor and very little parmesan 🧀. Nonetheless, the food was excellent, the quality of the meat was good, and the ambiance is beautiful ❤️. While our waitress wasn't the friendliest, the rest of the staff was very welcoming. We would love to come back. ❤️

    My first experience 3 weeks before at Under the Moon was wonderful. I went for dinner, the food, halloween decor and our server were excellent. So much so that when the opportunity to dine there again for brunch came up I happily made a brunch reservation for my daughter and I. (An hour drive from where we were coming from) It was a cold, miserable and rainy day. Our reservation was for 10 am. I didn’t know this was the first service of the day. We walked in 6 minutes before 10. (Again it was rainy and cold). The employees at the counter stared at us like deer in headlights. I said good morning, and gave my information for the reservation. After being stared at again uncomfortably, we were told “We can seat you, but you’re six minutes early. We can’t fire anything yet. “ I said that’s fine, it would take us a minute to look over the menu anyway. In a completely empty restaurant, we were brought to a table that would have seated us in a small area between two other others. When I requested to be moved to a two top that had back support for one of the chairs I was met with rolled eyes. Why was it necessary to start the experience off this way? Six minutes isn’t something to condemn a customer for. Another table came in 2 minutes after us, were they told they were 4 minutes early? As stated above, I didn’t realize the 10:00 reservation was the first one of the day. I was treated as if I walked in 30 minutes early and demanded service. None of those things happened. The service was lackluster, the food barely room temp, and the experience left a sour taste in my mouth.
