I came here and had a wonderful experience. But.... The air STUNK! Pee-You! I went to hide from the stench in the restroom, and the door won't open! Help! read more

Fun, eclectic eatery located in the heart of downtown Rome. The space is wide open and has a small, hometown feel to it with fun art and memorabilia hanging from the ceiling and walls. The menu is full of classic, comfort style dishes that will make you feel at home. Or server was a true southern belle with all the charm and kindness you would expect. I had a burger and it was delicious. This thing was MASSIVE and cooked to a perfect medium well as I had requested. The fries were also pretty good. They could have used a bit more seasoning but there was salt on the table! read more

Down in Rome this past weekend and decided to get into the Harvest Moon, as I had never been. Asking my girlfriend how it was, she just answered "okay". I now agree with her. This is a Southern Restaurant in a southern town. So I opted for a Shepherd's Pie from the St Paddy's Day menu. Yeah, go figure. It was rather bland. When I make this dish, I use ample cream in the potatoes (Irish style) and make a thicker, more moist pie, with a good deal of tomato in it. This was a bland substitute. Far better the next day when I added in enough butter to make the potatoes shine. I will give props for using lamb on this. She had the salmon patties. Fairly simple, also rather bland. Mashed potatoes as well. Breading on the okra was fine. Staff? Very friendly waiter. Answered all the questions and even described the drinks. As this has a good craft beer selection, I opted for one I had not had before and she got a smokey old fashioned. The old fasthioned did not have the cherries or orange peel you would normally see, but was rather strong and did use a rye whiskey. I would not go there for the drink, but reasonably priced. The ambiance is great. Typical of Rome, GA establishments, you can feel the history. They also have a rooftop bar and a separate bar area, for those seeking out a drink or two. Summary: The experience was good, but the food was bland. If you like to heavily salt your food, this might not be as big of a deal. On the whole, 3 stars, for average. Compared to other places in Rome, some of which are really bad, you would prefer this to many places. Nothing really bad to say, but nothing really good. Just average. read more

Great lunch find in Rome. The staff was super friendly and super helpful. My wife got the Grain Salad. She pulled a few things off and changed the dressing and they were more than happy to accommodate the requests. I got the Cheesesteak, which was excellent. The steak was plentiful and the veggies were just the right amount. I haven't full jumped in the pimento cheese wagon as of yet, but it was a great addition to the sandwich. They had lots of sides to choose from. I jumped at the fried okra (made fresh) and was glad I did. It was outstanding! This was a cool place with a good vibe to it. read more

We had a wonderful time yesterday having cocktails and appetizers at Dark Side of the Moon. Cheyenne was so sweet and makes a great blood orange margarita! The food and service were both perfect. read more

I was greeted and seated right away when I arrived, which set the tone for a great visit. I ended up going up to the "Moon Roof," where they had karaoke going on--it made for such a fun atmosphere! I ordered the salmon, which came with asparagus and a sweet potato soufflé. Everything was flavorful and well-prepared--the soufflé especially was a nice touch. Overall, the food was tasty, the vibe was lively, and I'd definitely return. read more

FULL OF FLAVOR! Thank you fellow yelpers for the recommendation. I planned a day of antiquing in Rome, GA with a friend and we LOVED our lunch. We started with the fried green tomatoes. The candied jalapeños on top of the goat cheese were a great added touch. My friend had the Red Headed Stranger burger and WOW- it was perfect just the way it is on the menu. I was teetering back-and-forth between the OMGBLT and the salmon patties, but since I had fried green tomatoes as an appetizer, I went with the salmon patties. They did not disappoint! Also, the cheese grits get a huge notable mention as a side... Don't skip these! The place has a great nostalgic, flair and southern charm without being "country". read more

Cheyenne our waitress was great!!! She was a 10! Great service and food! The Rasty Pasta was great.

I was so excited to try this spot based on other reviews on yelp. The service was wonderful and the interior of the restaurant had an old hunting lodge feel. Unfortunately, the food fell flat for me. We ordered fried green tomatoes as an appetizer. They came with goat cheese and a candied jalapeño. They were good, but I thought there was a little too much breading. I prefer a light corn meal breading and these seemed a little heavy. I had the black bean burger and a side of macaroni and cheese. The burger had no seasoning and fell apart when I tried to eat it. It was a mess. The macaroni was dry and tasteless, like it had been sitting out too long. I really wanted to love this spot, but I'm sorry to say I can't recommend it. read more

This was my second time going to Harvest Moon, and it was just as good as I remembered. They have a special pimento cheese they make that is delicious. I had smothered chicken with collard greens and garlic mashed potatoes. Very good meal. The atmosphere is interesting. Love the original brick. The theme is confusing but eclectic. Service is always great here. They definitely take care of you. If in the Rome Ga area it's a must try! read more

Great food, amazing service and great family friendly ambiance. Highly recommend you visit if you happen to be in the area.

Lowering to three stars. Still a cute little place but each time we've gone it seems like we've liked it less. The deviled egg appetizer is always slightly frozen. The cole slaw is horrible. The soda was flat. The waitress seemed annoyed that my husband changed his drink and that I didn't like the coke slaw. read more

The service and food quality have gone downhill and we used to love this place. My wife and I got there about 6:30 or so. Seated right away. We requested the patio because it was a nice evening. Server was prompt with taking our drink orders while we sat and looked at the menu. Their was one other couple out there already. The server came back with our drinks and took our order. We sat there for about 20 minutes before seeing our server again. When we did we ordered another drink. That came relatively quick. Another 10 minutes goes by and a runner brings us our food. My wife had a Rueben and I had the Cuban sandwich with sweet potato chips with both. We also ordered some of the Gorgonzola dip to go with it. Both of our sandwiches were room temperature at best. My wife's cheese didn't even look like it had melted and our half filled bowl of dip was slightly warm in the very center but already had the skin/crust on top of it. I ate half of my sandwich because I was so hungry. My wife ate about two bites. During this entire time we never saw our server again not even to check and see if we were enjoying our food. When she did come by we asked for to-go boxes. Now I wanted to say something but my wife didn't want me to so I relented to her. Our bill came up to $71.70. for 4 beers 2 room temperature sandwiches and a dip. It was a very disappointing meal. read more

What an amazing place! I will Start with dessert, the Key lime pie was the best I have every had! The whip topping was so yummy!!!!! Everything we had was top notch. Our waiter was amazing, sorry I forgot his name. He had a unique name, hope that helps. I cannot say enough great things. The inside was cool. The band had started next door and the music just added to the experience. read more

Went to the Harvest Moon Cafe thinking we were eating at the Dark Side of the Moon, and came to realize the Dark Side is a connected bar. No live music this Monday night, so we were bummed. Ordered the corned beef Reuben and my co-worker ordered a burger. Apparently he was much more pleased than I was. The sandwich was so-so, definitely not one of their specialties, and the shrimp, while appearing well cooked, smelled fishy. Shrimp should NOT smell fishy. Beyond that it was not seasoned at all... tasting as though it had been thrown on the grill right out of the ocean. The okra while seasoned, was soft and mushy. If I return, it will be for the burger. read more

We were excited to try this restaurant as it's highly recommended as far as we had heard. They did not have any non-alcoholic beer options, which is super unfortunate this day and age. I got a soda and it tasted a bit like chemicals and I had to pick out a strange "floater" from the drink. I got the Thai chicken and my partner had the house pasta dish. The pasta had zero flavor, like the noodle literally had no taste, it didn't even taste like pasta, it tasted of nothing, which baffled both of us. It was probably the blandest thing I've ever tried at a restaurant. The Thai chicken was full of flavor, but I was a bit concerned on the cook on the diced chicken. We had some gastrointestinal issues that night and next day (my partner had eaten my leftover Thai chicken for lunch), which confirmed for me that the chicken must have been undercooked... We were very disappointed, given that this place had more than 4 stars at the time of us trying it out. Not sure if it was a bad night or what, but considering that it was bad across all items received, we won't be going back and I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. The server was very kind and attentive and the restaurant has a cool vibe on the inside, but doesn't make up for higher priced food items with poor quality :( read more

In Rome for a geocaching event. Restaurants & shops couldn't have been any more welcoming! We had heard rave reviews about pimina dip & the sweet potato soufflé & both lived up to the hype! We were pretty hungry when we arrived, so I forgot to take pictures. I had the fresh salmon patties with fried okra & steamed fresh veggies. My daughter had the meatloaf with collards, sweet potato soufflé & cheese grits. Everything was perfectly seasoned. Our server was helpful when asked about items in the menu & was awesome at keeping my water glass full, which was no small feat! If you're in Rome, Georgia, eating at Harvest Moon Cafe is a must! read more

Great service. Good food. Will definitely visit when in Rome again. Very attentive staff but would've preferred to sit in the music area.

We had a nice brunch with family. Lot of different selections. I tried the southern grits bowl.

I went inside with my children to get a gift card. A nice gentleman said that I would need to go to the bar to get the gift card. We went up to the bar and the woman working the bar was very disrespectful and had an awful attitude. We were about to eat there for lunch,but because of that atmosphere,I did not feel it was right to support a business that treats families this way. So disappointing. read more

The service was horrible, the lady was very rude. I think the bowl my green beans came in was dirty because there was mac and cheese at the bottom. The resturant itself is a pretty building, but what's under the surface is aweful. read more

Attended Harvest Moon during St. Patrick's Day weekend was Good & BAD experience. Starting off w/the "good"; the band & music was AWESOME, as well as, atmosphere, bar service & drinks. Ordered the bars Daily Special of Corned Beef & Cabbage expecting an awesome dish; receiving an atrocious bowl of "soup" lacking temperature containing what looked like 3-day old soggy cabbage with potatoes & carrots swimming in a broth of dingy water that had been drained thru a pair of dirty athletic socks with stripped pieces of meat. It was sent back 2X's to no avail still receiving the same. Finished my 2-martinis and left with an empty stomach. disappointing read more

We ate here as a family (2 adults and 2 small kids). I had the shrimp and grits, my husband had steak, and the kids had a burger with mac and cheese. My shrimp and grits were really good. My husband said the steak was good. The kids burger was nothing special. A super flat, over done patty with a huge bun. The mac and cheese wasn't the best either. Adults meals - good, kids meal - subpar. The service was good and the atmosphere was inviting. read more

Great good and service. I wished I lived closer. If in the area definitely go there .

Excellent shrimp and grits. The grits were very creamy and sweet, contrasting well with the acidic and slight spiciness of the Cajun sauce. The bacon bits were a great addition, obviously, as you can never go wrong with bacon. The mushroom slices surprised me - and it was a good surprise. Their herbal flavor and smooth texture were a good go-between in the midst of the extreme creamy, grittiness of the grits and the tough, briny shrimp. I will say that the temperature of the extra side dishes I ordered, collards and green beans, could have been warmer. Also, the shrimp were not large, as in the description. They were pretty small, but at least there were a decent amount of them. Overall, still a fantastic dinner. read more

Charming location with lovely live Celtic music. Great service by Michelle T. and food was on point!

IV had lunch here twice. Service was great both times. Food is very good. Once I had the turkey Rubin and the other time their Cuban. My wife had the bean burger. I'd go back for any of these. My colleague had the meatloaf. It looked amazing but he said that he thought it might have been amazing a week ago but tasted awful then. Although the place is gigantic it doesn't seem that way. You have to explore to recognize how large it is. So still get the small town ambiance despite a large well run place. read more
