    La Moon is a must do--our first visit was nothing short of outstanding! From the moment we walked in, the authentic music set the perfect dreamy dinner vibe, transporting us into a relaxed, joyful evening. Food item or ordered: sautéed shrimp with a spicy cream, garlic. Wings that had an amazing chili glaze over them. Gyoza (I did not enjoy this dish) These were the starters, and the shrimp was my favorite.! Fast-forward to our main selections!! We ordered the drunken noodles which were 10 out of 10 as well as the blackened shrimp. It was served with a spicy Sriracha also a 10 out of 10.! The drinks gave main character. They have lots of signature drinks that are very light and refreshing. You wouldn't believe that alcohol was in them. If you're in the Virginia -Highlands area, please stop by and check them out! I server was amazing, and all of the food came out fresh and hot. They also have complementary valet parking!

    Everything tasted amazing! The owner was super awesome and the servers were great. We ate on the patio which was nice. The inside of the restaurant is classy, clean and inviting. I'll come back to try more foods. The fish dish was the star of the show!

    We came as a party of 6 on a Monday night and it was busy! Took a 20 minute wait but you already know it's popular We ordered 2 appetizers and 4 mains with drinks as well. And were welcomed with extremely warm attitude by our servers and the owners. The ambiance is definitely a bit louder but everything was as perfect as it could. The owners gave us so much attention and made sure we were treated well. Number one will recommend for a dinner! Will come back again

    Came here with a friend for dinner tonight! I valet parked in the back and walked up the stairs, through the restaurant to the host stand, and gave the hostess my friend's name for our reservation. Just a few minutes after being seated, and given water, my friend found me at our table by the open window, and we caught up on life! The ambiance is very trendy, intimate, and stylish. We loved our table because we had a comfortable breeze gently blowing in and nice natural sunlight. Funny enough, my friend and I had the same top 3 entrée choices we were considering, so we decided to each pick one different option and share. I chose the shaken beef. It was very flavorful and delicious! While most of the pieces were tender and soft, some were pretty chewy. My friend got the drunken man lo mein. It was also very tasty, with a very subtle, enjoyable spice kick thanks to the peppers. Service was great! Our waitress was very kind and attentive, checking on us and making sure we didn't need anything, without rushing or making us feel overwhelmed. We were very comfortable here! My only reason for a less than 5 star review is simply because of price. While the portions were perfect for us girls, the price for what you're getting is very high. I look forward to coming back to try more delicious dishes. I plan to bring my fiancé next time since he wasn't able to make it tonight, but I already know that with him, we are going to have to share at least 4 or 5 dishes... and it won't be cheap!

    Drunken Lo Mein
    Ivy U.

    Loved every bite we had! Started with the Gyoza and green beans. Wow. A whole party in my mouth! For my entree I had the Drunken Lo Mein. Just enough spice to satisfy my tastebuds. My parents both had the salmon with fried rice. They enjoyed very much too. Kendall took great care of us. I can't wait to go back! I managed to find street parking - which I'm still shocked about. But there's valet behind the building if you're not so lucky. The ambiance was super cute too. We sat by the opened windows in the front and because the weather was just perfect today, the breeze coming in was amazing.

    Dumplings
    Christina P.

    Wandered in on a Monday night and were immediately seated as a group of 2. The interior of this place is beautiful. Moody, red lighting with plush booths and pillows. Service was friendly and attentive. She took our order quickly and came to check on us at all the right times. Ordered the dumplings, seafood hot pot, and pad thai. The dumplings were nice and in a tasty sweet soy sauce. The pad thai had great flavor and a variety of textures. It also had a healthy serving of shrimp and chicken. The seafood hot pot was my favorite by far! The soup was flavorful with a great balance of sour and spicy. I also loved the mushrooms and soft squid rings. My only critique is that the disposable chopsticks and plastic soup spoons don't fit the more upscale atmosphere.

    Kao-Mok Steak

    Wowowow-- there's SO much to like about La Moon. First of all, I'd describe it as the PERFECT date-night spot. Quaint and intimate setting, paired with vibrancy and energy that makes it sexy NOT tired. The food was to die for. The portions are also enough, to share, but necessitate ordering a few in my opinion. It's the perfect opportunity to try many of their MUST-TRY dishes... such as... - Gyozas (worth it) - Dumplings (could pass) - Mor-Din (unreal glass noodle, shrimp pork belly pot) - Kao-Mok (delish! Steak dish YUM) - Pad Thai Chicken & Shrimp (worth it, despite its mainstreamness!) See pics of the above attached. They were all so worth it, and the perfect amount of food for a two-person date-night

    La Moon has been on my radar for a little while. The way the restaurant is set up they have seating out front and windows in the front of the restaurant that open up to the restaurant feels inside/outside very cool! Food, let's talk about it. I tried that the cheese roll, Mussels, fried rice with salmon and the drunken lo mein. It was amazing!! What stole the show to me was the drunken lo mein and the mussel. The mussels were HUGE and the sauce it came it was out of this word, a little salty but nonetheless amazing. Such a great restaurant highly recommend. You're welcome! Also S/O to my sever Trent! Service was amazing!!

    Noodles
    Amanda S.

    Was very excited to try La moon but ended up being a bit disappointed by the food. The ambiance is absolutely gorgeous for the small space and the service was also great, but unfortunately I felt like the food was lacking flavor. We came for a birthday dinner and had a table for 6 of us. I got to try dumplings, one of their noodle dishes, and I ordered the shaking beef for myself. Unfortunately I felt like all of the food was missing flavor that I'm used to with Vietnamese and Thai food. The meat was cooked super well and was tender, but there just wasn't any flavor. I'm not sure if I'll be back at La moon since there are soooo many options in the Virginia highland area.

    The food and service was perfect. Yum yummy. We will definitely be back for more. Cute little place. The drinks were perfect and so was the food.

    Michael B.

    Food was way better than we expected. More of an authentic taste . Serving size was decent but not big. Service was fast and friendly. Sit up front to people watch. I will be going back. Great place for date night. Not sure if they take Apple Pay.

    Lemongrass Tofu
    Rebecca R.

    Wow! Color me impressed. My server was friendly and struck the perfect balance between attentive and leaving me alone lol. The place is nicely decorated and dimly lit with upbeat music. I ordered the green beans and I was immediately a fan. They were perfectly cooked and nice and garlicky with some crunchy bits on top. No limp veggies to be found. For my main, I ordered the lemongrass tofu. This was different from others that I've had, but definitely not in a bad way. Usually lg tofu is more of a sautéed tofu and veg with a runnier sauce. This tofu was so crispy!! Like it had a thick crust that perfectly clung to the tofu cubes. The flavors were punchy! You need the contrast of the dull sticky rice in between bites. Honestly I loved it though. Lemongrass comes through as well as that salty, soy type taste. I will absolutely be back.

    Black Pepper Shrimp
    Celia Monique W.

    Definitely checked off all of my boxes. Once I got word that this was a Thai Asian-Fusion spot, I was all in. For starters: parking was pretty convenient, which is great considering the busyness of the area. They offer complimentary valet, but if you get lucky you can also find parking on the local streets. When we walked in, I literally said out loud " WOW" b/c the ambiance was gorgeous, the lighting, the decor and the art...was already a great way to intro the night. We had the pleasure of having Lily as our server. She was soooooo great! Her energy is just the kind you want to be greeted with especially for your first time. For our drinks we started off with the Butterfly Kiss, and the Midnight Moon. The butterfly kiss was gin based, and the midnight moon is normally vodka based, but Lily gave a great suggestion to try it with Tequila. The midnight moon is basically a lychee martini (which is my absolute fave) so I was very curious to see how this would taste with tequila...and to my surprise it tasted better than the vodka version! It even came with these cute feathers attached too! (see pics) For our starters we ordered the Garlic Green Beans (10/10!!!!) and the Fried Tofu. Now, I am not a plant-based person, but that tofu was GOOOOD, and it was paired with this delicious sweet thai-chili sauce. For our entrees, we ordered the Black Pepper Shrimp and the Shaken Beef. Both were delicious and were paired with rice and vegetables. The shrimp was cooked to perfection and the beef was nice and tender. This is for sure a place I would frequent and bring my out of town friends to.

    I ordered the drunken lo mein, flavorful and spicy. The staff is excellent. Our server Lili always makes us feel welcome whenever we visit.

So far I have had the pho twice, the rice cubes, and the shaking beef. Everything tasted great. Big parking lot for free parking. It is amazing how similar my visits have been.

I think the servers do not want to interrupt your meal but I wish they would come by more often.

Can't say the interior is that much better either, though it does remind me of Vietnam and family gatherings. Service is slow, and some things take longer to come out than others. If you care about starting your meal at the same time, I would recommend ordering things to share since it can take 15 minutes between the first dish and last to come out. The food here is good! I don't typically get Vietnamese because I eat enough of it at home, but there's a good variety here where it's worth coming for. What my family, and my cousin in particular, really like from here is the bò lúc lắc or shaking beef. The spring rolls that you make yourself is also quite nice.
