Although the waiter was attentive, it took an hour and 15 minutes for our food to arrive. I saw some people leave because they didn't want to wait so long. The food was decent, but expensive. Lunch for one person cost $25.20. This price was for an open-faced chicken sandwich, salad, and iced tea. A 20% tip was automatically added. I noticed that the alcoholic drink menu is also very expensive, with a glass of beer $7 on up. You must climb steep stairs to get to the dining area.

I’ve never had such an outrageous dining experience in my life. Mistakes happen at restaurants, and I’m understanding when food takes an extra long time or you deliver the wrong food. When my girlfriend and I were at Moonrakers, one of our plates had been delivered to another man first who began eating from it. When he realized his order was wrong, that exact plate with his used condiments was delivered to me. This is beyond a simple mistake, and dangerous if it’s not also a violation of health code. No amount of being busy makes this a reasonable or acceptable way to do business. Now I’m wondering if my girlfriend is sick because Moonrakers gave her the fries that someone else had started eating already. They didn’t acknowledge that our food had already been picked at until we said something, and then we got to wait another 45 minutes on top of our long original long wait for food. I have to advise steering clear of a place that’s so wantonly reckless with their approach to their customers’ health.

Good beer selection, good sandwiches & burgers & house made chips. Excellent, friendly service. Also wood-fired pizza. Have been here only at lunchtime; never had to wait to be seated. Up narrow staircase; I don't know if/where there is an elevator

A tasty higher end place to eat at a pretty reasonable price. I had the mussels and my friend got one of the sandwiches. The portions are huge but that's fine, probably shouldn't eat too much of this sorta food anyway (and I would if it was on my plate hehe). We had the meatballs as an appetizer which were killer, mussels were ok chorizo was more like Italian sausage which do pair with the garlic white wine sauce but it was too much fennel and sausage flavor for me (had trouble picking up the mussel's flavor contribution to the sauce).
