    The food, atmosphere and customer service was excellent. The only thing that could be improved is the noise level.

    My husband and I enjoy dining at this restaurant. And had not been disappointed with the meals, the staff, and the atmosphere. We call it “our go to” restaurant.

    We brought a pavlova with toppings to celebrate a birthday. They offered to decorate for us and bring to the table. It looked fantastic, was really great. Have been to the Full Moon a few times and have enjoyed it each time.

    The Full Moon is my local. It's in a fabulous position, it offers a reasonable menu and it's within walking distance of my house. So why do I not go there more often? Firstly, the menu (see above for "reasonable") hardly ever changes (and when it does, not necessarily for the better, eg, what on earth possessed them to remove the seafood platters, which were fabulous for sharing and great value?) So the food doesn't vary much - OK there are daily specials but often they sell out very quickly (which should alert you to the fact that the menu is a bit too static) - and it's not bad; probably a cut above regular pub food and, in some cases (looking at you Brighton Hotel), several very large gashes above. But it still lacks that tiny attribute that would make it superior pub food. For instance, my salmon with risotto and my friend's seafood linguine last night were OK taste wise - the risotto was a bit too overcooked and sludgy to be anything more than OK - but why was it impossible to have the food arrive at the table at a temperature barely above tepid? However my biggest beef (interesting metaphor for one who rarely eats meat but never mind) of the evening and by far the biggest shock I've had at any venue I've eaten/drunk at in a long time was the price of sparkling water. Friends, I have to say that when the bar person told me that a bottle cost $15-odd, my condition could best be described as extreme flabbergastment. Where does the Full Moon's sparkling water come from? Jupiter, via a bottling plant on Saturn? Here's an idea, Full Moon: I have a very useful water carbonating machine in my kitchen (bought with the aim of reducing plastic and/or glass bottle waste - and there's another idea, Full Moon). It makes very acceptable sparkling water (which probably tastes absolutely not one whit different from your fancy [and criminally overpriced] sparkling water) at probably a hundredth of the cost. I'm disappointed because the FM could be great and not just so-so.

    I would love more small meals. At present I alternate them when we visit but more choice would be welcome. For example smaller pasta dishes.
