Chinee like me: dinner at Moon Garden

We went there last Tuesday. Was packed, although its easy to pack the place cause its small. Food was good but service was slow because of the amount of takeouts.

The funny thing was the "al fresco" dining. A family tried to get in but was too crowded so they decided to dine "al fresco" in a little table outside the restaurant with Vineyard pau hana traffic whizzing by.

I can't say enough how great this place is, it's small but yet quaint location. Parking is sort of a challenge but a little persistence goes a long ways. It is by far one of the better I think in my opinion outside of the Chinatown realm. Great job as always Melissa808

It was a Joy Luck Club moment with @jlieu reunited with her long lost pink sister. Great food and great fun!

i now have my menu for my next dinner for 8+, starting w/ that winter melon soup. haven't had it served like that since dynasty closed in waikiki. thnx for the eating guide!

that winter melon soup looked like the giant subway dwelling alien monster in 'Men In Black'. i'll probably never get to see another one because i'm not a heathen Chinee, i'm a heathen Celtic pagan.

ps do you know why women like Chinese food so much? because WON TON spelled backwards is NOT NOW. White Power Ma told me that one on the par five 15th and made me double bogie the hole.

Loved it! The only thing about the wintermelon soup ordered traditional style is that if you have a party of less than 8 people, it's expeeensive... bixbyho told me once, but I forgot. If you have a big group, though, it's a really nice treat.

thx for sharing! the wintermelon soup does look onolicious. i've not had it served out of the gourd. i'm not your typical chinee cuz i HATE bittermelon...ick! happy early birthday bixbyho !

Hello Melissa, the food looks great! I'm chinee but no speak chinee....

Winter Melon Soup! Need I say more? That alone is worth the trip there. But remember it has to be ordered 1 day ahead. Melissa808 hicds melissa808

That night was so much fun! Even though I normally do not like Chinese food, this place is one of my new favs. I like the oysters, winter melon soup, and the 8 treasures dish! Another fav is meeting my twin sister at the restaurant! :D BTW: I said, "I dont like Chinese food, but I like to come and spend time with you all" :D <3

Delicate Blossom: Wwhhaatt!? No rice at SCDS? Your Chinee ancestors rolling in grave at this sacrilege!
