Even though I have been in Perth for over a year, it is the first time I have been to The Moon, which some of my friends rave about. A snap decision at the last minute from the Dining Buddy to go in that direction.
We grab a booth, and grab drinks. No complaints with the Little Creatures Pale on my part. The ambience seems lovely, out the back of the bar it is an art gallery, with what look to be comfy loungers.
However, the staff seem either too attentive or too lax in their interest levels toward our table, and what we believe to be a starter, the nachos, is actually a share plate. And although we are both in a nachos mood, after some hindsight, they were decidedly meh. Average.
The mains I chose was the blue, pumpkin and thyme fettucine, which was decidedly yum. Definitely made up for the averageness of the nachos. All the gorgonzola, indeed.
I am sure I will be back at the Moon, and to be fair, it was a quiet Thursday night when we were there. I am sure it would be different if it were busy. Perhaps the Moon is an outsize micro-bar, because it certainly has aspects of the small bar vibe I have experienced around Perth. The food was nice, but didn't have any wow factor that I have found elsewhere local. And a safe beer choice for the evening.
Verdict: Nice, but no wow factor
