Moono is the CUTEST date night spot!
THE MOOD:
I loved the look and vibe of Moono. The place has cozy indoor seating and a nice patio outside. As soon as you walk in, your eyes are drawn to the bar area in the back. There is blush mood lighting and the decor just makes the place feel like an intimate and romantic place.
THE FOOD:
For drinks, we got the Yuzu Lemonade and Galaxy. Both were really pretty and tasted super refreshing.
The food was delicious! We got the following:
-Crispy Nori Tuna Tartare: The nori is made crispy so that it’s like a chip where you can scoop up the tuna tartare. Really unique and loved how crispy the nori was.
-Spicy Pork Ramen: If you like spicy like me, this is the ramen to get! This comes with tonkotsu broth, chase pork (perfectly charred!), ground pork, egg, beansprout, kikurage, corn, and green onion.
-CREAMY CAVIAR: Hands down, my favorite dish – I am still thinking about it. This comes with 3 seared scallops, mentaiko creamy sauce (rich and delicious), massage, inure, nori, and truffle oil. If you love Ikura and seafood like I do, this a good dish to try. The flavors were rich, creamy, and bold. I loved every bite!
-Moono Wings: These are hot honey lemon pepper wings. The wings are pretty big and the glaze on the wings was a perfect blend of sweet and spicy.
-Chicken Katsu Burger + Truffle Fries: This burger has the cutest design on the buns (the eyes). It comes with cabbage, katsu sauce, Japanese mayo, and thousand island dressing with a side of truffle fries. Their chicken was juicy and crispy.
-MOONO ROLL: This one was the most pleasing to see out of all the dishes that came out. It was super nicely presented and kind of brings the WOW factor, especially if you are out on a date. The sushi roll comes out in a smoked glass container and the waiter lifts up the glass cover to reveal the smoke and sushi.
THE ‘TUDE:
Our waiter was so awesome and knowledgeable about the menu. He gave us such good recommendations such as the Creamy Caviar (now one of my favorite things to eat!) and Moono Roll and regularly came by to check on us to see if we were still doing okay.
OVERALL:
I loved the vibes, food, and good service, so I will definitely be coming back!
**TIP: If you’re not sure what to get on the menu, look for the items that have the eyes next to it. Those are the ones that are customer favorites.
