    380 Park St Moraga, CA 94556 "China Moon" is an old school Chinese restaurant in the quiet town of Moraga. I had a wonderful first time experience here on a Sunday afternoon. I was at Rheem Valley Shopping Center looking for another nearby business, and I decided to go in China Moon and order some favorite dishes. I was greeted as soon as I walked in, and I grabbed a booth by the window. China Moon has a spacious dining room. There's lots of booths along the wall, and several "4-seat" tables. They also have large round tables for groups. The decor is pleasant. I ordered: - Wor Won Ton Soup, Regular Size - Prawns w/ Snow Peas The Wor Won Ton Soup was excellent! Ten dumplings in a light broth, and covered with an assortment of meats, shrimp and chopped napa cabbage. This bowl of soup was loaded! A regular sized bowl is perfect for one person. Grade (5/5). The Prawns w/ Snow Peas was perfect. Good amount of prawns, covered with snow peas. Also some water chestnut and bamboo shoot. Light seasoning. Great way to add veggies to my meal. Grade (5/5). I saw some interesting dishes on their menu, and I'll have to return to try them. Dishes such as: Salted Fish Chicken & Tofu Clay Pot, Lettuce Wrapped Chicken, and Pork & Century Egg Rice Porridge. 100 Year old eggs! Free parking in shopping center lot and along the street. So escape the big city and come out to quiet Moraga and try China Moon!

    Surprised moms at work & treated her for lunch. China moon is right around the corner. My mom loves eating here and my sister Megan when she worked out this way. We shared the honey walnut prawns and combo chow mien. It was enough for both of us to share both items and take some home. They give you oranges slices and fortune cookie at the end of every meal. The chow mien was well seasoned & had plenty of meat and veggies. Very filling. Walnut prawns were cooked to perfection. Not over cooked could of used more sauce though. Overall food was very good and big portions enough for two ppl to share. Seasoned well and customer service was very very good! Megan said hi!

    Chicken chow mein and vegetable fried rice

    I agree with the statement that this is the best Chinese food in Moraga. I have tried many Chinese restaurant and this one is by far my favorite. Great pricing for Chinese food in Moraga. I love their chicken chow mein and their sweet and sour chicken! The ambiance is nice and the server is always very kind, helpful, and attentive. Me and my friends love to eat here after a long day!

    This is my first time grabbing food from this place since I was a little kid so I really didn't remember this place at all. I thought everything here was tasty and generously portioned. I will definitely come back for more! Chicken chow fun was delicious will definitely be getting this again. I got a sweet and spicy eggplant dish also very good as well as kung pow 3 ways which had chicken, shrimp and beef. I thought the protein was cooked nicely and a hardy amount.

There's plentiful inside seating and a comfortable shaded outdoor patio. There is a full bar that some folks were sitting at. We opted for the outside patio since we had our kids with us and they can be loud. Our server was kind and accommodating. She checked in often, but not in an invasive way. Everything here is farm to table, and tasted fresh. The oysters were delicious and so were the mussels which came with a delightful coconut broth and grilled bread. The kids enjoyed a fried chicken slider with fries. My favorite was the beet salad with goat cheese. It was so flavorful and perfectly cooked. This is definitely a spot to try with or without your kiddos. I would come back for dinner with the hubby.

I really liked my lobster bucatini. The coconut ceviche was very fresh, not too sour and tart. My friend got the filet mignon skewers, and those were okay. We both got a drink as well. Service was friendly enough. The only thing that's rubbing me the wrong way is what we were charged on our bill. I am 100% sure I rounded my bill to $XX.00 because that's what I like to do, but when I saw the charge it was different. I am also sure I did not pay the exact amount as my friend (confirmed because she did the exact 18% rec), so to find out we both got charged the same amount.....very sus. I of course already threw away the receipt, but recalculating our meal...We definitely did not spend $100.67 each...So just be aware when you check your statement!! SKETCH!!!

    So I booked a reservation here instead of "the other Italian place" in Moraga because reviewers…read morecomplained a lot about service and value there. Damn. I don't know WHAT to believe anymore... Ambiance: It's a little difficult for me to really warm up to a place next to a movie theater. Yes, I've been to this shopping center a number of times. The vibe for a nice dinner is lost a bit with the location. Upon arrival: I felt like I was walking back in time. Yes, I love actual tablecloths, but the location itself wasn't inspiring. Vibe check = difficult when the restaurant is completely empty. Service: Like much of everything else, "these days--meaning post-pandemic" the server was young and trying. It was much like how it feels to fly now (I do it a lot). The FAs are young and inexperienced. He seemed unsure of himself. Nice kid but not the level of service that others had described. As far as his helpers...not so much. You have one job: putting the replacement knife on the wrong side of the plate is a detail that perplexed me. Yes, I notice this stuff. Now for the food: DISAPPOINTING. The meatballs were really basic and nothing special. Entrees? To say we were underwhelmed was an understatement. My dining partner had the lasagna. How do you screw that up? They did. Not flavorful at all. She said the sauce tasted like it was from a jar. I had some weird chicken with prosciutto and cheese dish. The chicken was really dry and overcooked. I could barely taste the cheese. The mushrooms that came with the dish didn't taste like sauteed mushrooms. They were overly sweet and just not good. Everything had a ketchup taste to it. The desserts were really tasty. I wanted good Italian food, NOT just a dessert. Now I need to try the other place and see if it's as awful as other reviewers have mentioned. It certainly can't be any worse than this location. I will NOT be returning.

    The food was TERRIBLE! In a party of 8, no one's food was good. Pasta dishes were under-seasoned…read more My "pear" salad was a bagged salad with the feta sprinkles and chopped, brown pears. The burger was dry, luckily had cheese on it. The French onion soup was so salty it was inedible. And the fish sandwich smelled, well, fishy. The service was not any better. The waiter forgot to bring two drinks ordered at the beginning of the meal. Then never offered refills. When we asked another worker there for more iced tea/ soda, he replied yes. Then disappeared. Never ever will any of this party eat there again.
