Moonshine is the best!! Every person there was so awesome and provided some of the best service I've ever had. Chef Asia is so sweet and her food was truly unbelievable. I can't wait to take more people here with me.

Asia Mei is easily one of the best Chefs in Boston. I've eaten here several times, but I can't believe that I haven't written a review before now! My husband and I had brunch at moonshine 152 last weekend and told friends about it. Next thing you know, the four of us were in there around noon time today having brunch again. We shared three starters, alongside sharing all four entrées and everything, I mean everything was to die for! Ms Asia herself delivered some of our plates and she is just as delightful as she is talented. Needless to say, dinner is amazing here as well. The vibe in the restaurant is so easy and you can tell that the staff get along very well together. What I can't believe is how this place wasn't fully packed today or last weekend even. Definitely a good amount of patrons, but I've had brunch at places that are hard to get into and left much less satisfied.

This was our second visit to Moonshine 152, having previously visited in the spring of 2023 (we're out-of-towners and this was our first visit to Boston since then). Amanda served us each time; she's a master at this job. The martini pours are very generous, so Amanda had to perform a near circus act to get them to the table without spilling a single drop. Cheers! For starters, we enjoyed the creamy ricotta bruschetta, which was melt-in-your-mouth heavenly. For entrées, we shared three Korean BBQ short rib tacos and Mama Mei's Dirty Fried Rice. The food was fantastic! This is such a unique restaurant, one of our faves in Boston. What sets Moonshine apart is not only the great food, the hipster, party ambiance, and the top-notch service but here Chef Asia Mei delivers the dishes to the tables personally, engaging her loyal customers. This personal touch makes the award-winning chef a leader in the Boston dining scene. Visit Moonshine 152 for a memorable dining experience.

Exceptional service! Delicious food! We enjoyed everything we ate: rangoons, fried chicken and waffles , stuffing bites, beef bowl, avocado salad, pulled pork pancake. Chef Mei and our server were so warm and kind and we had a blast celebrating a birthday.

Food is delicious and the service is so friendly. The chef brings out most/all the dishes herself.

Everything is amazing! My spouse and I have been several times over the years and we ah e never had a bad experience. The pulled pork scallion pancake quesadilla and the buttermilk fried chicken are favorites among our crew. However our most experience we tried the spicy lamb meat balls and the buttermilk biscuits w/ pepper jelly- both were excellent. And the service is always top tier. I have never had a bad experience.

Everything was presented beautifully and every bite was delicious. I was between two entrees and the server was very knowledgeable and made the perfect recommendation. Chef Asia came out personally to check on our meal and get to know my family. She also creates the art hanging on the wall. We hadn't even finished our entrees before agreeing we should come back again tomorrow!

10 out of 10! Loved everything about it. Food was innovative and wonderful. Icing on the cake was the chef came over to talk to us and ask us how we liked everything. Will be back as soon as we can to try the dishes we weren't able to fit in today!

Moonshine has quickly become our favorite place in Boston. The food is exemplary. “Global Comfort Food” totally nails it. Everyone is friendly and we've never had a bad experience. Took some family there for dessert last night and everyone was floored. The Chef stopping by the table to talk to us about the experience simply stunned our guests. Best of the best.

Personally, I am not a fan of fusion menus so can’t really say much about the Asian fusion dishes without bias. The burger was good and the atmosphere was very chill and unique.

We noticed that there may have been a bit of disorganization between the host and the rest of the staff.

It was neat to see Chef Asia on the floor running food and greeting customers. It really showed the pride and love the owner had for her business. Also, she was very friendly and welcoming :)

I say that it was nice to see small business owners being active with their business, which makes you feel good supporting these kinds of businesses.

Definitely will come back for the vibes.

Some of the best brunch I’ve had in Boston in YEARS and best friend chicken in Boston buttermilk chicken & waffles, chicken wings, etc)! Seriously, it’s perfection.

The sauce for the Shine steak & eggs is 10/10, French toast sticks are crispy outside and gooey yummy inside, the list goes on.

So many things I need to go back and try, like their scallion pancake quesadilla, a la carte farmers breakfast, and Korean bbq tacos.

Thank you for an incredible experience, I’ll be back!
