    Pan Seared Whole Branzino
    Horace L.

    My wife and I came by for a Wednesday night dinner around 6:45PM. Probably because it was during the middle of the week, the restaurant was pretty empty with only about 5 parties when we walked in. Given the space, I'm sure this place is bustling during the weekends so I cannot complain when I got a parking spot right out front and got seated immediately upon entering. Food: we were quite hungry when we arrived and definitely overestimated our appetite...especially my wife. Fried Calamari & Asparagus - 4/5 - great starter; I didn't eat the calamari due to my health condition but the batter was very light and crispy, which is what I enjoyed. A bit overkill with the amount of sauce that was given to us on the side though. Focaccia Garlic Bread - 3/5 - I would order just 1; we ordered 2 because we were hungry and I think it took up too much space in our stomachs. It's good but not super memorable. Pappardelle Pasta - 2.5/5 - Gosh, I wish this was less salty. The flavor and texture of the pasta was great but it was WAY too salty. I was washing my mouth with water continuously eating it. Bianca Pizza - 4.5/5 - Delicious! I'm a sucker for wood fired Italian pizza, especially ones with lots of mushrooms. It just was a bit hard texture wise. But the flavor was all there!! Pan Seared Whole Branzino - 5/5 - The best dish of the night. The fish was HUGE!! The skin was extra crispy while the meat was flaky, falling right off the bones. It was cooked perfectly to my liking! We immediately finished this one first and ended up taking the others to go because the fish needs to be enjoyed fresh. Glad we did. I would highly recommend this dish! We also got the Strawberry Tiramisu to go. Unfortunately, we ate it a day later after it was in the fridge so I feel it would be unfair to rate this. Ultimately, it was a bit too light for us and we prefer tiramisu on the "heavier" side. It had the texture of a coffee sponge cake instead of thick, creamier tiramisu. Overall, this was a wonderful experience for us to celebrate our anniversary. I don't know how this place would be on the weekends but we didn't have to wait and the food was delicious. I'd still recommend they cut down on the salt on some dishes though....

    First let me say that their customer service is so lovely here! We came twice in one day . For dinner and after our daughter's game for dessert. Our waiter the first time was very welcoming and helpful I unfortunately did catch his name and he also said hi when we came back for dessert again great customer service! And our waiter for dessert she was so nice we sat outside this time she came cleaned our table and recommended some dessert, I loved the coconut cheesecake. Both of our waiter gave us great service, nothing like going to a restaurant to eat great food and have my family be treated nice and respectful we will definitely be coming back ! Now the food just delicious, loved the Calamari very fresh and tasty we had two orders that's how tasty it is. My hubby got the branzino, that was delicious, the fish was cooked so nicely, sauce and veggies just was a very exquisite plate. He loved it and I tried it and loved it. Braised beef pasta with truffle oil was very tasty, and delicious! big beef serving they definitely don't skimp on meat portion. We really recommend this place food and service are worth it, Money well spent! Very nice and quiet ambiance, it's a very nice restaurant. Loved dining indoor for dinner and loved coming back for the experience outside for dessert.

    The food and service were good, however... it's super slow, everything took time so have patience. Especially if you get there first thing in the morning. They didn't seemed prepared when we got there and when we left I noticed 3-4 more employees showed up. Also, the music was terrible... one minute rock, then Italian then American. It was weird and through the vibe off. The beet salad was really good. There was only 2 scallops for the appetizer that sucked. Pizza and salmon also good.

    My sweetie and I had a late lunch at FEM and it was excellent. We were seated promptly by Michael who turned out to be our waiter as well. We both went with salads. I had the Caesar and my wife had the beet tower. Both were wonderful. We decided to have dessert as we had had such a healthy lunch and went with the strawberry tiramisu. Yummy to say the least. Looking forward to to returning for dinner as many of the house made pastas looked tasty.

    Delicious spot in downtown HMB. I had never been in this area before this so I was pleasantly surprised at how cute this place is. This restaurant is surprisingly big- they even have an office area and an area where you can rent it out for a special event! The restaurant is spacious and a good place for a big party. Food was good.service was friendly. great place to eat in the area

    Seafood and Italian restaurant in HMB. SF chef Pablo Estrada started Fattoria E Mare in Burlingame and this location near the beach is newer. It was cold and gray and Italian food sounded perfect for lunch. It's located on Main Street so parking can be challenging but we were lucky to get a spot at the thrift store across the street. Interior feels very coastal and intimate with the use of of wood floors and table tops and that distinctly painted blue wall. Service was very good but we noticed the food took quite awhile to prepare, I want to say it was a good 25 minutes before anything showed up at the table. Wood-Fried Pizzas: This is what my wife and kids really wanted. Got pepperoni and arugula, olives, prosciutto, and pepperoni. Both tasted OK though there are better places for pizza like this but not around HMB. Seafood Linguine: Shrimp and clams. Tasted good but there was so much liquid in the bowl it was almost like a soup. Purple Haze Cocktail: The name and ingredients sounded cool, it was a very easy drink to have though I wish I would have gotten wine.

    BURRATA AFFUMICATA

    Came here for Mother's Day not knowing how everything would be since Mother's Day is always packed any place you go to. Wholeheartedly I was blown away with the quality of the food and service. We were a party of 5 that was seated upon arrival . The ambiance was comfortable yet upscale at the same time. All of the appetizers came out very quickly. I would suggest the burrata , charcuterie board and the cesar salad . For main course we had a tomahawk that was cooked to perfection , melted in my mouth! The bucatini was amazing , creamy and perfectly sauced in the cheese wheel. We ordered a margarita pizza and the all meat. The all meat had a great combination of different meats with a hint of spice balanced perfectly. We finished the night with the dessert platter and all I can say is I will be back. If you are ever in Monterey or the surrounding area stop by you will not be disappointed.

    We came late on a Monday night and had the restaurant to ourselves!

    Excellent food, service and atmosphere! Try the beet tower salad and fresh fish. There is both outdoor and beautiful indoor seating.

    Saffron Pappardelle with short rib

    A solid Italian place with good service but inconsistent food quality. Lots of Italian places in the area and at this price point, it doesn't stand out, so maybe a tad shy of 4 stars for me (3.8). Really liked the complimentary toasted focaccia bread! We had a couple of them! Next, I shared the Butter lettuce salad and it was refreshing and tasty with pears and tangy vinaigrette dressing. For my entree, I had the Spaghetti Chitarra Al Nera squid ink pasta with shrimp, clams, mussels, and calamari. Good amount of seafood but unfortunately the sauce was bit too salty. A touch of cheese or pepper to top it might have helped. My buddies had the grilled Branzino and short rib pappardelle. Agreed that it was fine but they've had better. I also had a glass of Zinfandel from their wine list and that was fine, too, but average. Glad to have tried it but many other good restaurants still to try nearby!!

    Rude host
    Mariel F.

    Shame on me for not reading the 1 and 2 star reviews on here first before coming to this restaurant. According to the negative reviews, we are not the first people they treated like this and we will highly likely not be the last. At 7:35pm we sat down at the bar to wait for our 8:00pm reservation. We were aware they were busy and we were patient. They expressed that they might seat us after our reservation time. Communication is key so we appreciated the transparency. The problem began at the bar. The bartender ignored us for approximately 40 minutes straight. He did not utter one word to us. No eye contact whatsoever. I understand if one is busy. However, at least acknowledge our existence. We were sitting in front of his face and I looked like a red disco ball due to my sequined outfit. I know he could see me. My sister went to talk to the host for an update on our table. She was directly in front of him, talking to him face to face, and he immediately started talking to another dinner guest behind her while she was in mid sentence. Deliberately ignoring her. The disrespect we experienced back to back is ridiculously unacceptable. If you insist on coming here, try to not directly interact with the inexperienced young male host and the "experienced" older male bartender. I have nothing bad to say about Justin Hall, the general manager. If he could impart those 2 employees with his customer service skills, it would be greatly appreciated. They need to be retrained. I am only sharing my experience to warn others of bad customer service. If you want to dine at an Italian restaurant with good customer service in Half Moon Bay, I highly suggest going to Pasta Moon. If you want to dine at the best restaurant in Half Moon Bay with above and beyond service, go to The Conservatory / Navio inside the Ritz Carlton. We traveled an hour away in the rain from where we reside to dine there. I honestly would rather starve than to give them my time and money.

    Gnocchi
    Alyssa B.

    Met the head chef during yelp events before, been dying to come back since. Went on a Friday night for dinner, made a reservation online. Such a cool atmosphere and overall experience, there's an amazing view of trees if you're lucky enough to get a window seat. Came with my partner this time, and was so excited for it. If I had the money for it, and the will to drive here all the time I would try all the seasonal menu changes. My order: Appetizer - Focaccia bread, this is literally the best focaccia bread I've ever had. It's almost biscuit-y. Gnocchi with pesto - First bite you can already taste the homemade freshness of the pesto and the perfect gnocchi texture. Didn't think it would be very filling without protein, but it sure was. Short rib and tripe fettuccine - This is my boyfriend's order, he loved it very much. He's not really into tripe, but he really enjoyed this( which is a shocker). Short rib was so tender, he did not want to share. LOL TLDR: It's priced how you expect really good quality food from. Would've been so much better if I was into wine with all the pairings they have. Wish we had more room for dessert, but will definitely come back.

If you take a look at my reviews, you might notice that I have been on the search for the best pesto gnocchi and the best butternut squash ravioli. The ravioli here at Pasta Moon most likely takes the #1 spot. I'm not sure what the crumble on top of the ravioli is, but it almost tasted like brown sugar. I was very impressed with how well the squash and mascarpone blended and tasted together. I honestly wanted to come back the next day. I also tried the bolognese: the pasta noodles were evidently fresh and very delicious.

We were initially very excited, as the interior is beautiful, cozy, modern, and has such a welcoming atmosphere. Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed the experience. It started with something simple: drinks. We were offered water, so we also asked for hot water and coffee in addition to iced water, but the busboy responded with, "I only do water," which was fine. However, the two water cups he brought were visibly dirty with stains both inside and out. We wanted to ask for replacements, but couldn't find him again for nearly 15 minutes. When our server came to take our order, we mentioned the cups, and she said she would ask the busboy to come over. About 15 minutes later, she returned with appetizers, but still no busboy. We asked again if someone could replace the cups, and she finally waved the busboy down. Even though he was already standing right beside our table, instead of addressing the issue directly, she pointed at us and told him to "ask them." When we explained the stains, the busboy initially argued and said, "I don't see it," and we had to point them out before he reluctantly agreed to replace the cups. Ironically, one of the replacement cups still had brown bits floating inside, but at that point we just gave up. During the meal, we also tried to order a cup of coffee. The server simply said, "hold on," and never came back. Throughout the entire lunch, she never once checked on our table, despite checking on nearby tables multiple times and repeatedly walking past ours. What stood out even more was overhearing another table next to us complain that they had been seated for 30 minutes and were still waiting to order. Instead of apologizing or showing any empathy, the server smiled and responded with, "good." By the end of the meal, we had to ask another staff member just to get our check. Only then did the server finally reappear and casually ask if we needed anything else. The food itself was average at best and nowhere near memorable enough to make up for the experience. Between the poor service, lack of attentiveness, and cleanliness concerns, this was deeply disappointing, especially for a place with such a strong reputation. Sadly, I don't think I would return or recommend it to others.

I found Barbara's on Yelp--solid 4-star rating, good reviews, so we decided to give it a try. We arrived and were told there was about a 20-minute wait, which felt reasonable for a weekend seafood spot. Once we were seated, things started off fine, but the experience quickly became a bit frustrating. There seemed to be a breakdown in communication with our server regarding our order. We placed everything clearly, but when the food came out, it wasn't what we had ordered. Instead of just clarifying or correcting it, we were told the order had been placed incorrectly on our side and were asked to reorder. Unfortunately, we were also still charged for the original order, which made the situation feel even more confusing. We also ordered the clam chowder, which was honestly disappointing. From the very first spoonful to the last, there was a consistent gritty, sandy texture that made it difficult to enjoy at all. It took away from what is usually a comfort dish, especially in a coastal town where you expect it to shine. On a positive note, our timing coincided with sunset, and the view from the window was absolutely stunning. Watching the sun dip over the water while dining added a really beautiful moment to the experience, and the scenery itself was honestly the highlight of the visit. The setting itself is nice and the location is convenient if you're exploring Half Moon Bay, but based on our experience, the execution on both service and food quality didn't match the expectations set by the rating. Overall, it felt like a missed opportunity. With a bit more attention to order accuracy and consistency in the kitchen, this place could easily live up to its Yelp reputation--but unfortunately, that wasn't our experience that day.

That could all be easily simplified and adjusted. And with that said, I'm not surprised that our pizza arrived wrong -- half was only cheese. I partly blame Uber Eats. But the pizza was really good with a thin crust, loaded with toppings. The 3 cheese-sticks were huge and would have been great heated up (marinara too) as per my partner.. I didn't try any this time around. I really enjoyed their caesar salad + appreciated their portions for dressings/appetizer sauces and the menu variety.
