    It was another excellent dinner at Blue Moon Bistro. New appetizers like Buffalo shrimp and chicken lollipops were fantastic, and our entrees were all different and awesome. The staff is incredible. You can tell they love working there almost as much as we love going there!

    Our previous experience at this restaurant was outstanding. However, our dinner last night was good, not great. We drove over two hours to Beaufort, and I was really looking forward to once again having their pork chop entree. However, even though the pork chops are listed on their website on their current menu online, it is not actually offered on their menu in the restaurant. As a substitute, I ordered the short ribs. A lot of good food, but nothing special. Even though we had made reservations about a month ago, they tried to seat us at a high top table in the bar area. We got that straightened out quickly and got a good table for two in the restaurant area. Disappointed that the start of our experience last night was having to deal with where they were trying to seat us. Overall, a disappointing experience last night.

    My fiancé and I went out for dinner after I booked us the reservations online. The reservation didn’t mention that there was a Valentine’s Day prefix menu so we were pretty shocked by that and the price point but the food was delicious. We got each option on the prefix. I had the cauliflower bisque, fennel salad, and seafood plate. The bisque was rich and creamy without being over started. The fennel salad was good with some surprising flavors that really wow’d me but due to my own error I couldn’t eat much of it, I forgot to ask for no onions due to an allergy. The seafood plate was INCREDIBLE. Tender fish with a delicious crust accompanied by some type of little ravioli that was to die for. The set dessert was similar to a fudge brownie but was a bit underwhelming flavor wise. My fiancé had the beef consommé which he enjoyed throughly, the caesar salad, and the lamb. While the caesar salad was good, it didn’t stand out. He said the lamb was cooked to the perfect temperature but would have liked more seasoning to develop a more complex flavor profile. Overall the food was very good. The pacing for the pre fix menu was a little slow, even with the understanding multi course menus allow for digestion time but our server ya hannah was very sweet. We also had the special cocktails: a blood orange gin, house raspberry simple syrup, topped with club soda. The drink was perfectly balanced between letting the fruit flavors shine while keeping it from being too sweet with the gin and club soda cutting in a bit. I would definitely dine in again but would have appreciated more transparency about the prefix menu when booking the reservation.
