Dined with coworkers, cool looking place. Everything was amazing, I can especially recommend the salmon, the pork belly & surf combo, & the tuna roll. SO happy we ate there!

Cool and unique place to have dinner. Great views! Service was awesome, though they seemed to have their servers running all over so it was slower at times. But my server was outstanding, attentive and gave great recommendations. I had the crispy rice with spicy tuna and it was an 11/10!! The avocado crispy rice was 9/10. I also got the filet with the bacon/onion jam and blue cheese. While I love all of those items, it was actually too much for me. It was still tasty but just too salty together. So an 8/10. Still very good and overall a great meal.
Michael was an amazing server! We were celebrating a big day for a member of our family, and he made the day even more special and memorable. He was attentive, enthusiastic, kind, and funny! We would want to have him as our server every time we dine with you if possible. Give this man a raise!!

Moshulu was an amazing! The hospitality was phenomenal. The atmosphere was so welcoming and the noise level was very low. The food was incredible-we had an appetizer, entrees, and dessert and loved it all! It was such a pleasant dining experience overall and we can't wait to go back!

Always outstanding. One of the,(if not THE) dining restaurant in Philadelphia. Our server Kristian (sp?), did a fine job of giving us opportunity to meet with friends and celebrate a birthday. Ready with Champaign, and menus, we were treaty so well. The chef went out of their way, above and beyond, which made our food very VERY enjoyable. Thank you all for a GREAT evening.

Everything was exceptional until the bill was presented. I received an email stating the Date Night price at $35 per person but the price presented to me on the bill was $65 per person. I showed my waiter the email I received extending the special price at $35 per person. The waiter apologized and the bill was corrected. My issue here is it felt as though they were attempting to not honor the fantastic lower price!

I always try everything. I know a couple people who have went here and they all have said its not the best. But still i went. The service was great our server was kind answered all of our questions and knew alot about each dish. She was great. The light was not to dim but it wasnt a harsh light. It wasnt too loud even with the noise of other patrons. We could still comfortably hear each other without having to raise our voices. The food though. The food was where the issue was. My friend order the chicken dish it was very unseasoned and dry. I order the short ribs. I have had short ribs from cheaper restaurants and ive made better short ribs. The lacked flavor even with the au jue. And like the chicken was super well done and dry. Like chewing on leather. For appetizers. I got the macaroni. Again the short ribs was dry and flavorless as well as basically being nonexistent on the dish and the macaroni and cheese was somehow also dry and had the same taste as a box of kraft mac and cheese. They had a bread for the table. That had an overwhelming flavor from seasoning and was dense like a cake. With some kind of sweet butter that tasted like a swwet cream cheese more than butter. We took one bite and didnt take another. Overall we are very disappointed in the meal for the price. The restaurant was beautiful. The server was great. The 2 alcoholic drinks we order which was called sweater weather and tiki something that was a pina colada on the rocks. They were very good. Overall 2/5 stars. Only saving graces were staff/drinks/mood. Would not recommend for anthing other than the bar.
To start off our server Michale was wonderful and he made the whole night fantastic, he was very attentive and helpful to make a suggestion and sense it was our anniversary I believe he really went out of his way to make it nice. The food was amazing having gotten the appetizer of octopus which was cooked really well, all I have to say is I wish there was more octopus, and the dinner was seasoned and cooked perfectly in my opinion having gotten the NY strip steak and it being cooked perfectly (the portions sizes are decent as well). This place is located on the water and you can see the views even at night and the ambiance here can't be beat especially for nice dining. Who doesn't want to eat on a boat? Would highly recommend and would most definitely come back.

This venue is so pretty! Food and liquor service was friendly, efficient, and wonderful. The food itself was amazing. We are never disappointed and last night was no exception. We'll be back.

This was a very intimate place to dine. It was my husband and I 21st wedding anniversary and we just wanted a quiet evening out. The ambiance was amazing and the food delicious. The staff made us feel welcomed and comfortable.

We have been to the Moshulu many times and this was the first time that I would have to say the food was only average. The service was distracted and the policy of charging a surcharge for using a credit card is ready. Overall, this might be the last time we go.
