August Moon, at 3635 Prytania Street in New Orleans. I went to have lunch on October 9, 2025. I dined in and ordered my food and when it arrived I noticed the plate I had was not clean. You can see the smudged of left overs maybe still stained on the plate. I said my grace and thought well the food still looks good and maybe I’m overthinking. I ordered a Hot Garlic Chicken with fried rice and a Cho-cho. I bit the Cho-Cho once and the second time I saw a cockroach fall out with my meat and veggies. I took pictures, told the waiter and the owner and they just said, it’s ok you can leave and offered me a fortune cookie, that I declined. I left the restaurant, didn’t have to pay but my stomach started to feel queasy and I didn’t feel well. All I can see is this roach in my head that I almost ate or maybe did eat a leg or so. I didn’t even get an apology. I’ll never stop to eat there again. It’s a small restaurant, kinda like a whole in the wall spot. I also seen a roach on their outside window stuck between the card board sales sign and the window… it stayed there for days or maybe weeks and was finally removed. First red flag. I didn’t say anything then, but now I need to write this review so people can know, it’s a Shame they don’t keep their restaurant clean and tidy. It’s been reported too.

Absolutely without a doubt THE worst Asian restaurant I’ve ever had 👎🏼 The Sour Chicken had raw dough and the chicken meat itself was obviously frozen. The veggies that came with the plate were stone cold and had pineapple … like huh? The Hot & Sour soup … the photo will explain itself. I mean why was it tasting a little musty and goopy. The only edible item was the egg roll and even that was just lower than average. One bite and one sip of the soup was all I needed to know … threw it all in the trash 🗑️ 2 ⭐️ ONLY because the delivery driver was nice.

If I could give it a zero I would! I really wanted to return the food and request for a refund but my mom was receiving chemo and said she would just eat it. It WAS absolutely AWFUL what they served on this plate! I honestly can't believe they served this.
August Moon was once a top notch restaurant. NOT ANYMORE!

Delicious food and there is a great balance of Chinese specialties and Vietnamese dishes. I had Beef pho which was tasty and satisfying.

I love the sweet and sour chicken lunch special. It comes with soup, crunchy noodles, an egg roll, and a generous serving of chicken.

Won’t get again. Crab Rangoon was burnt, dry inside, and only came with 4 pieces and no sauce. The veggie egg rolls were very oily. The vegetable lo mein portion size was good but super oily and not a lot of flavor.

The workers are really nice, the food unfortunately was unedible. The shrimp was not properly fried, the batter was very thick and didn't cook through so it came apart into literal chunks of raw flour. I had to scrape it off in order to eat some of the shrimp, which was coated with the tail still on. I though I would be able to at least eat the fried rice it came with but no luck there either, it was way too greasy. I understand that chinese food can be greasy but I've never had anything like this, and expensive too!

Have been waiting to try this place because I live in the neighborhood. Was skeptical. Was correct. If you've ever had really crappy Chinese food, this is it. Ordered the Kung Pao chicken dinner and it had 7 pieces of bland, rubbery thin sliced chicken. The rest? All cut up celery and carrots with a couple pea pods. Ordered dumplings and they were probably the worst I've had. Soggy and tasteless. To top it all off, it wasn't cheap. The people in there are nice, just wish they put together some better food.

Older place, but the food and service was great. They even customized my order.
