    Lamb Shish Kabab
    Nancy O.

    We saw the ad for this local restaurant on Facebook. We decided to go the next day !! I like falafel and other vegetarian dishes so I got the appetizer plate that had a combo of items I love . It came with the fluffiest pita bread !! Delicious!! My husband loves lamb so he wanted the lamb chops (they were out of the chops) so he got Lamb Kebabs! He enjoyed them very much . He said they were flavorful and tender. They have an outdoor patio which would be great for spring and summer meals !! We will go back !!! Service was friendly and welcoming !

    Dessert Moon Mediterranean Grill is a great spot. One of my favorite locations now. As soon as I walked in they greeted me and sat me in a comfortable area. Right before I sat down they even asked if I wanted some water while we look over the menu. They were so welcoming and kind. After we ordered and started trying the appetizers and entrees they continued to ask how everything was and if we needed anything else. Everything tasted fresh and authentic. The vibe was perfect! No bright lights just a nice peaceful private eating area for all families / parties. Definitely recommend coming here. They do a great job making you feel comfortable and all the food I tried was delicious! :)

    Came here on a weekend for an early dinner and had no problem getting seated quickly. My friends and I ordered a combination platter with some extra kabobs to share. Everything was delicious! A really great portion for the price too.

    Big fan of this place after just one visit! Service is exceptional all around, but particularly I want to highlight Albert. He was incredibly energetic, attentive, and hard working throughout my entire visit. The ambiance inside is nice with dim lighting and plenty of reasonable comfortable booths. They bring out some bread and hummus before the meal which was nice -- the bread was fresh and airy while the hummus was...hummus lol it got the job done. I ordered the Desert Moon Mixed Grill and it was absolutely fantastic!! Huge portion that could easily be two meals for one person or split amongst two people. The meat was cooked PERFECTLY, especially the chicken which stood out. My tastebuds were dancing from the very first bite. I love that they cook the meats under a wood fire grill; gives them such a nice char without drying them out. The rice was buttery, cooked well, and they give you a ton of it. Everything was seasoned very well and the food came out hot, which deserves to be highlighted as you can tell the chefs take pride in their craft. I finished with this new rice pudding dessert with honey and pistachios, which was tasty and a nice way to complement such a savory dinner. Highly recommend you give this place a shot sometime, I'll be back forsure!

    The Mediterranean food here is A1! As a group, we ordered two orders of the Desert moon Mediterranean grill, the lamb chops that were highly recommended along with the grape leaves and some sides. The food here was very flavorful and delicious. Service was simple here. They sat our party down, poured us water, took our order and brought us our food 20 mins later. Ambiance is here very nice. Very clean, nice looking and spacious. I liked all the nice decor everywhere, simple and elegant. They have M/F restrooms that were clean and plenty of parking outside. Overall, if you're in the area looking for great Mediterranean at reasonable prices, come check this place out. Can't wait to come back here again.

    Still one of my favorite Mediterranean places, I almost feel guilty when I visit other ones,.. The service is still as wonderful as the first time I visited. The friendliness of the staff is just as consistent every time I've been. They've always been above and beyond whenever I visit. The food is just as delicious and massive as it has always been. I do love how they sometimes have special items for certain holidays and events, and they always let you know about the dish! I would say that the staff here always exceeds my expectations, and they are one of the biggest reasons I'm such a huge fan (well, of course, aside from the delicious food). to sum up: still love their food, their staff is wonderful, and I need to stop by more often.

    Hummus and Baba Ghanouj - this was smooth, rich and flavored perfectly.

    We were craving Mediterranean food and decided to check out Desert Moon Mediterranean Grill-- we were not disappointed. It was 12:45pm on a Thursday. I got there first, was greeted and seated right away. We shared the Desert Moon Mixed Grill, which came with a flavorful spread of shish kabab, kufta kabab, chicken kabab tawook, grilled tomatoes & onions along with humus/baba ghanouj and fluffy rice. The meats were juicy and well-marinated, with a perfect char from the grill. The hummus was smooth and rich, the baba ganoush had just the right smoky touch, and we added the Mediterranean salad for a refreshing tangy crunch to balance it all out. Food was generously portioned and perfect for two hungry eaters. Service was quick. Restaurant was clean and perfect for a relaxed lunch. Location is easy to find and there's ample parking. Highly recommend.

    Came here for dinner on a Friday night. It wasn't packed. Parking is easy in their lot. Servers were prompt and nice. We ordered the meat platter, falafel, and the wrapped grape leaves for a party of 5. PLENTY of food. Pleased with the quality of the pita bread and all their dipping sauces. The mixed meat platter is good value. Chicken only slightly dry but flavorful. Other meats were great and moist! The rice tasted so good too. The falafel wasn't bad. I like the falafel at Sababa more. Pot of tea being $15 bucks is kinda silly and the service charge for a party of 5 is also kinda silly. Overall decent service and good food. Easy to share and value isn't bad.

    the best to do it and my go to place when i want falafel, hummus, wrap, and more. service was attentive and kind, been going here since 2020!

    Tabouleh Salad
    Steven N.

    Desert Moon Grill definitely serves up delicious Mediterranean food! We tried a plethora of different foods including Taboulah, Falafel, Hummus, Pita, and Desert Moon Mix. The Taboulah was delicious and the favor was very refreshing. The hummus and pita combo was tasty. The thickness of the pita bread was fluffy and puffy. The Falafel was also crispy and delicious. The piece de resistance was the desert moon mix. With its beef, lamb, and chicken mix. It certainly hits the spot. Having both kinds of flavored rice was also delicious. The decor and service were also great as it definitely felt authentic. If you like Mediterranean, you can't go wrong here!

    I heard the best time to come here is during lunch because it gets super busy for dinner. We got the meat platter for 5 people to share and we had plenty left over. It comes with lamb, chicken, beef, rice, vegetables, hummus, bread, and salad. So worth and so authentic. I think this has to be my favorite Mediterranean restaurant I've ever been too. Highly recommend!! I heard their seafood is yummy too!

    Abyail C.

    Really yummy and delicious food,I love their samosa but they make me fat!! Not going to lie idc. The service is good the waiters come to your table each 15- 20 minutes, the waiters let my family use the restroom even after closing time, the waiters are chill and nice. The Ambiance is very pretty and cool i love it, I love the mix of arab cultures. The place it's so clean.

    I would give this place a 3.5... it was better than average but also didn't blow me away... everything was good, nothing was great. Nothing really stood out, whether it's the service, the food. Everything was slightly above average. Place itself was good I guess. There low hanging spot lights that kept hitting us every time we stood up to leave the table. Mixed feelings about this place

The food is very good and filling. I ordered a chicken shawarma sandwich thinking it wouldn't be enough food but it was. And every bite of the sandwich was so full of a diverse multitude of flavors. I love it because I feel like this type of food can be easy to mess up, but Zait and Zaatar gets it just right. I look forward to coming back. Also the man in the hat who took our order, perhaps the owner, was so welcoming and friendly to us.

I placed an online order for the baked fish plate around 12:45 PM and expected a bit of a wait since it was fish. After waiting about 25 minutes, I called and was told it would be another 10-15 minutes. The restaurant was busy, so I understood. However, after waiting longer and checking inside twice, my order still wasn't ready and there seemed to be confusion about its status. In total, I waited close to an hour for an order that was placed online in advance. What bothered me most was seeing customers who ordered in person receive their food before me. It felt like my online order had been overlooked. If online ordering is offered, those orders should be monitored and fulfilled properly, especially during busy times. The food itself was good, but the plate could have been put together better. The fries were placed directly on top of the fish, which made them soggy and took away from the presentation. It would make much more sense to serve the fries on the side. Overall, the food is still good, but the long wait, confusion with the online order, and lack of attention to presentation make me hesitant to rely on the online ordering system again.

The smokiness, the walnuts, it was perfect dipping with the (very hot) pita. Dare I say this was my favorite of the three? For proteins, we had the 3 kebab combo (chicken, filet mignon, and kefta) - again, all grilled to perfection, succulent, juicy, and so flavorful. Slather garlic sauce over everything! Our other protein was the mansaf. The lamb was fall of the bone and tender. The almonds give a nice crunch to each bite and the yogurt sauce was a perfect accompaniment. Ask for the green drink, perfect for cooling down in a warm day. Servers are super attentive and always checking in. Come hungry!

It's flavorful, wildly creamy, and the olive oil on top is out of this world. The nuts and steak were absolute fire too. I would definitely buy this if they sold it at a grocery store!
