I came here a Friday afternoon and traffic busy but parking was not hard to find. I parked on the residential street and walked one block to the venue. I know there is parking for the shops and restaurants that were closer but I took the first spot I saw. I did like that the restrooms were gender neutral. Both were single stall so it makes it easier to pull off but I know this means a great deal to many people. The inside of the bar has soft lighting and simple decor. The bar upfront is a nice touch. The tables on the inside are ideal for dates but can easily be put together for larger parties. The outdoor patio is a sight to behold. The outdoor patio can be enclosed in plastic for bad weather. The patio has plenty of plants. The outdoor patio seems to be set up for larger parties. This makes sense since large parties can be pretty loud and having them outside will not bother the inside guests. My server was Gem and she is a blast. She recommended the Coconut Chicken Soup and the Drunken Man Shrimp Noodles. The soup is extremely creamy but it is non-dairy. A cheat code for the lactose intolerant. The soup is full of flavor and I could eat it every day. The Drunken Man Noodles has some what of a kick but not too spicy. I wish it was spicier. The shrimp still has the tail on. Food is good. read more

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! read more

They offer complimentary valet in the back, which is always a plus. The ambiance was beautiful, with Asian-inspired artwork that gave the space a really nice vibe. Service could've been a little better--we didn't receive small plates or utensils at first and had to ask. I'm thinking it may have just been the timing since other tables were set. Now let's talk about the food... it was AMAZING. Everything was packed with flavor. For small plates, we ordered the calamari, gyoza, dumplings, garlic green beans, and fried tofu. Ozzie's favorite was the gyoza, and mine was the dumplings. The portions were great for the price. Honestly, everything was so good we wanted to order more. For entrées, we had the Drunken Man Lo Mein and Shaken Beef. Both were flavorful, but I preferred the Lo Mein because of the portion size and temperature. The Shaken Beef had more veggies than beef. The only downside was that the food wasn't served piping hot--if it had been, it would've taken the experience to the next level. read more

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 read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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 read more

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!! read more

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. read more

Came into La Moon after having a rough day and left in such a better mood thanks to Lili. Her energy, kindness, and attention to everyone at the bar really stood out. She even remembered my name, which made the experience feel so personal and welcoming. The food was amazing and the portions were definitely worth it, big enough to share! Ended up chatting and sharing food with some new neighborhood friends at the bar, which made the night even better. Great food, great atmosphere, and even better service. Lili made this place memorable for me, and I'll absolutely be back soon! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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. read more

I really enjoyed La Moon but had a couple issues stopping me from going 4 stars. First, it is a cute Asian fusion restaurant and I love that they are able to open their front wall to allow the air in and provide an open atmosphere. We were sat right in front and were very comfortable and still got to enjoy the Virginia Highlands energy. First reason, however, I can't go 5 stars is service. Our server was very nice but also very absent. Tables that got sat after us got served before us. If I had to guess I would say our server was enjoying some higher enlightenment, but I don't mean to disparage someone. I just mean she wasn't all there and may have been existing on another plane. We started with a couple of drinks. I don't remember mine or my wife's, so this is very unhelpful. I'm not sure I loved mine though. I know I didn't dislike it, but I also don't think I loved it. This is an incredibly unhelpful paragraph and I apologize. We also started with their mussels appetizer. It was delicious. The broth was amazing. But, it was also really small. For a mussels dish, there may have been a dozen mussels, maybe 15, and at least 5 were complete closed. So although it was good it was not worth the price. For entrees, my wife got the lemongrass tofu and I got the chicken and shrimp pad Thai. Starting with my wife's, it was delicious. I don't know how they got the tofu that crispy and flavorful-I've stir fried tofu with a sh*t ton of seasoning and sauce and never got it this good. Top marks for her dinner. As for mine-it was good, but the server (might have been the bartender) who dropped it off said he thought it was the best pad Thai he ever had. Okay, let's get into that. This gentleman was of Asian descent. I don't know his background but his confidence and profile made me believe I was about to eat the best pad Thai I've ever had. It really missed the mark. I tasted very different from a standard pad Thai, which is fine if it really is better, but it wasn't. It was good, and i definitely enjoyed it, but there was way too much confidence in his opinion for what I was served. While I recommend it, and I do think you'll enjoy it, it is a 4 star entree. I've had better pad Thai. And that's okay. This was very good, but his opinion was writing checks that the cooks couldn't cash. Also, just a side note, but can we do something about serving shrimp with the tail shell still attached? Why are we doing that? If it was a shrimp cocktail or something similar, fine. But this is a dinner with multiple ingredients. I'm supposed to eat it all together which is impossible if I have to de-shell the shrimp. Anyway, you will enjoy your meal here. It's a very good experience. It's just not the best. Bu I still highly recommend it. read more

The food was delicious!! Stopped by for lunch before heading to wine tasting. There's onsite parking behind the restaurant (paid, but I didn't see the sign until after I left so I'm not sure how much parking is). The restaurant is really clean and welcoming. Beautiful art work and good music to listen to while eating. The lunch portions are perfect for lunch. We started off with cheese rolls, shrimp, and dumplings and all were very good and seasoned. My friend had crab fried rice as her entree. We also ordered a Thai margarita and it was perfect! The server was very accommodating and allowed me to order from the dinner menu based on a picture I saw on Yelp. I ordered the Kao-Mok and it was amazing. 10oz ribeye with pineapple fried rice. Yum !! I'm craving it now. Definitely going back for dinner. read more

This has been on my list since they were called "Mai kitchen" and now I finally made it! I enjoyed my lunch here after church. Sitting in the front of the dining room allows for the perfect indoor/outdoor experience where it basically feels like you're sitting outside but not. We enjoyed all our food - I ordered the chicken tom kha and shaking beef. Both were very flavorful. My friend ordered the lo mein which was also tasty! Given that this is right in the middle of Virginia highlands it's also a great place to people watch :) there is complimentary valet parking behind the building. read more

Highs and lows. Highs: music is BOPPIN, serious 2000s vibes!, cute decor interior, good menu. Lows: we were seated near the bathroom and the lights were really bright and the music was REALLY loud. So even though it was nonstop bops, it was hard to hear each other and just not really the cozy mood lighting ambiance we wanted. Bf ordered the ribeye medium rare and you tell me, but that looks blue rare to me he still ate it but it would have been too rare for me. Also his fried rice was SUPER pepper-y. I had the Pad Thai and it was very good! Noodles were a little mushy but the flavors were all very good. Server was very kind though service was kind of slow, drinks arrived after our appetizers. Dumplings were mid but calamari was AMAZING. Just wish there was more calamari, there were a lot of fried peppers masquerading as calamari lol. 50/50 would go back but not dying to ya know? read more

I got this for takeout and got the crab fried rice and the dumplings. The dumplings were great, a perfect texture and flavorful. The crab fried rice was notably good, it had a good ratio of vegetables and meat. It felt like true fried rice by the texture and the taste, it was also priced well at $22. Takeout was quick and easy, it was cute inside. read more

The Ambience of the place was fantastic. Food was good. I got the ginger fish and I thought it was excellent. My wife and I shared the tuna tartare and I thought it was ok. My wife got the crab fried rice and she really liked it. I give it 4 stars because I think the food is slightly over priced and my wife asked for a non alcoholic beer and they brought her a 2.5%beer and said it was non alcoholic. Luckily she looked it up before drinking it. Service was otherwise good. read more

I love randomly walking through my neighborhood with my dog, and one evening I passed by La Moon and immediately felt such a good energy coming from inside. I actually went home, put my dog up, and came right back and that turned out to be the best decision I made for my Saturday night. From the moment I walked in, the vibe, the service, and the atmosphere were incredible. Lilly, Leta, and David were absolutely amazing. They made the experience feel warm, welcoming, and personal. It's rare to find people in a restaurant who truly make the experience memorable, but Lilly, Leta, and David did exactly that. They are officially my forever go to people whenever I come here. If you haven't been to La Moon yet, do yourself a favor and pull up. Come experience it for yourself, you won't regret it. read more

AMBIANCE: small, tight space. Perfect for date night. Thai art decor. There's a distinct faint bothersome smell where I sat. Smelled like formaldehyde. It bothered me before and after I ate. My husband said he didn't smell it or didn't notice it. FOOD: we ordered mussels (5/5) and calamari (4/5) for starters and crabmeat fried rice (5/5), shrimp clay pot (4/5) and shaking beef (3/5) for entrees. Overall food was great. SERVICE: really nice server. Food came promptly. read more

I was so impressed by the food at a recent Yelp event that I decided to drop in for lunch barely a week later. The restaurant is located in Virginia Highlands, one of Atlanta's most vibrant neighborhoods. Limited street parking is available and there is a small lot in the rear that has valet and a few reserved spaces for ParkMobile. I sat at the bar and was greeted promptly. There were only a few people in the restaurant around lunchtime. I studied the menu for a few days prior and knew exactly what I wanted to get. The Mai-tee cocktail is basically a mango margarita with a tajin rim. It was made very well. I also ordered Vietnamese wings, egg fried rice and shrimp spring rolls. The spring rolls were very fresh and delightful. The egg fried rice contained Vietnamese sausage and it was very flavorful. The wings were awesome! I asked for them to be fried hard and they arrived as requested. The sauce on the wings is mouthwatering. The restaurant is beautiful and quaint. The staff is welcoming and provided great service. I'm looking forward to returning and trying more of their delicious cuisine. read more

Food was a bit salty but the portions were great. Same with the drinks. Ambiance was nice but not too much to rave about. Just another dimly lit Asia fusion spot. Lucy the hostess was so fucking rude that it made me not even want to stay. We had a RSVP and she was nasty about it and didn't even walk us to the table. She just sat and pointed. WTF. Only slight saving grace was our server James. Really nice and gave us really good recommendations. Very attentive. read more

Went to La Moon since it has been on my list to go for some time now. My wife had made reservations for us for a Friday evening. We were seated promptly once we arrived. Our waiter was a good waiter. We ordered cocktails and appetizers that included spring rolls and wings. For my entree I got the shrimp pad Thai. All of the food was delicious! Our drinks were well crafted as well. I will say that that the restaurant is a little tight because the table that was right behind us was really close. The downside was that when we were packing our leftovers my wife found hair in her food that we think came from our waiter. That disappointed us as we did enjoy our meals. read more

I was craving Vietnamese food and found the perfect Asian food/date spot here Virginia Highland. I love the ambience of the restaurant and the vibes here. Parking was a bit rough. There is a valley parking lot behind the restaurant but we were able to find street parking that was free. There's also paid parking around. We started off strong with a couple of shots with our bartender, Katherine. She was super sweet and we loved all the drinks she made for us. My favorite was Hojutsu. If you love yuzu drink, this is the one for you. We were also greeted by the owners, David and Lucy. They were super kind and welcoming. I have to say we found another gem in Atlanta. I was a bit worried but omg they really blew me away. Everything was so flavorful and authentic. It's hard to find authentic restaurant especially down in atlanta and we found it here. All the appetizers was great! My favorite was the Lobster Garlic Noodle and the Shaken Beef. The pho broth was the bomb! It really tasted like homemade. To end the night we got Green Tea Cheesecake. I have never never had anything like that but it was sooo good! We will be back for sure. This place is perfect for a date night or girls night or if you just want delicious food. I'll definitely be back here to try other dishes. read more
