New Moon Restaurant

New Moon is one of the very few Chinese Restaurant that I would recommend to my friends, the food taste great, the atmosphere is very nice and the service was outstanding!

I have been to the Montrose location on a number of occasions, and have only had delicious food each time. My only complaint is that they don't have a combo plate, and the portions are huge! So, you end up with another complete meal to take home. The prices are not cheap, but, again, you get a lot. My favorite is the chicken in lettuce cups, scrumptious low-carb Chinese tacos! I love the chocolate dipped fortune cookies, too, but they're only served for dinner, I believe, not lunch.

The service is usually prompt, and the ambience is comfortable but elegant. They do a bouncing take-out service, and they have a shared parking lot and street parking, its usually not a problem to find a space.

I took my 85 year old mom to lunch and was sorry that we chose New Moon. We were seated and waited to be served. Meanwhile, two men were seated at the table next to us and for some unknown reason the wait person decided to served them first...probably because they were men and looked like business types. Nothing wrong with that except that my mother and I felt slighted by the female wait person. She should know better. Furthermore, I felt badly for my elderly mom who was so looking forward to the lunch. The owner or manger made a feeble attempt to talk to us-trying to be friendly- but by that time I was disgusted with the wait person, manager and restaurant as a whole. Never been back since. I make a concerted effort not to go there even though I live locally.

I was very surprised to read the negative reviews of this restaurant. We have gone there since they first opened and have virtually forgotten about the other places we used to frequent for Chinese food. We found that while the prices may be slightly higher for any one particular dish, its quality and quantity well out-weighs the rest. We have always enjoyed what ever item on the menu we choose and the service and attention given us has always been exceptional. They now have a full bar and new bar seating, but the best is sitting in the booths or outside under the umbrellas.
