I rarely write reviews, but I want to highlight the incredible job that this restaurant did for us recently. In late January, I coordinated a group dinner for ~35 people at this restaurant. From the very first phone call, I was impressed with the level of service and detail that I observed. Every person I spoke to was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, even as I asked endless questions about which food options were gluten free, how many appetizers and entrees we should order in advance, what are the best vegetarian dishes, etc. They advised me to order our dishes ahead of time so that we wouldn't wait too long, which was a thoughtful and true suggestion. The restaurant accommodated multiple challenging changes I asked them for, including increasing the number people on the reservation and even moving part of the group to an outdoor table (by request of the guests). So for service, I think they earned five stars.
I thought the restaurant itself was beautiful both inside and out. Many people who arrived early for the dinner enjoyed some time at the bar before making their way to the tables set aside for us. The patio outside fit around 30 people, and we had tables distributed both inside and out. The patio also had standing warmers to keep guests comfortable. So in terms of the atmosphere, I award them five stars.
The food itself was delicious. The guests all loved what I had ordered in advance, and they especially loved that they were able to simply order drinks and wait for the food to arrive. I think it set a new standard in how we will order food in the future! The family style layout allowed everyone to try a bit of everything and sample the many delicious options the restaurant offered. We ended up having fewer people come to dinner than we planned for, so we had food left over. We left nothing on the table; everyone who could took food to go. I ate my leftovers for lunch the next day and they were just as good. And considering how much we ordered (including drinks), that we all spent <$50 on such a great meal felt fully justified. I award five stars here for food too, easily.
While everyone on staff at New Moon is fantastic, I'd like to especially thank managers Scott and Will and our server, Andrew, for handling our large group, our many requests, and the constant changes. We will be back to this restaurant in the future!

We stopped here for Chinese food after going to Descanso Gardens.
There was a 45-minute wait but we were able to eat at the bar. We had kung pao chicken, a chicken and spinach dish and a rice fantastic soup. The bartender was nice and did not seem to hold it against us that we didn't want to drink cocktails.
The food was so tasty! Flavorful, delicious, abundant, and nicely presented.
It's a friendly place ...we had a nice conversation with the woman sitting next to us who was a regular, as are a lot of the people in the bar.
Can't wait to go back.

Finally! A Chinese restaurant that will accommodate gluten free needs! I found out about this restaurant from a gluten-free Los Angeles Facebook group. We ordered chicken chow fun, shrimp fried rice, orange chicken and the black bean sole. Everything was delicious!!! The staff members were also friendly and helpful. This is my new favorite Chinese restaurant!

TUESDAY FOOD REVIEW...NEW MOON (again)...8/12/25! Coming back from Bullseye Glass, we stopped for lunch at New Moon, located at 2138 Verdugo Blvd., in Montrose, CA. We split their Wor Won Ton Soup, and we each had their famous The Original New Moon Chicken Salad. This soup is FANTASTIC, and is not salty whatsoever, as the vegetables and meats flavor it!!! And there are no words to describe just how UTTERLY AMAZING this salad is!!!! This restaurant is, BAR NONE, the ABSOLUTE **BEST** Chinese restaurant that I have ever eaten at, and the food is not only DELICIOUS, it consistently has the same GREAT FLAVOR no matter if you were here ten years ago, or if you eat here ten years from now!!!! That is a HUGE PLUS in my book!!!!!
Great Chinese food, good quality.
