We recently stayed in Kendal and dined at this restaurant; the ambience was lovely as soon as we walked in, the decor and style of the dining room is very inviting and we had a very enjoyable evening. The food was stunning and very good value, complimented by good wines and attentive service.

My husband and I did not have a reservation for dinner, however it was only 7:20 p.m. and we were shown straight to a table. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed a delicious dinner with wine. The service was excellent, especially as many more diners arrived. The food was well presented and we enjoyed the atmosphere. Very... More

We were recommended this restaurant by the owner of the appartment we stayed in, and we were not disappointed, in fact in the week long stay we went back again. There were no critical points at all in either visit, al four of us were delighted with every course. The food was cooked perfectly and well presented. The service was... More

We have been in the UK for several months now and eaten out a lot but this is the best we've had because of the simple and truly delicious flavors. We had the early bird menu at £12.95 for two courses (before 7pm) and felt it to be great value for money. The meal portions were sensible sizes - not... More

Came here with my husband for my birthday while staying locally. Food was fantastic, beautifully presented and not too long a wait. Saturday night was busy, particukarly upstairs but management seemed to be talking to many regulars , discussing up coming events such as wine tastings so shows there is a loyal clientele! Enjoyed every mouthful and reasonable price too.... More

The Moon is quite a good restaurant, the menu is fairly modest, in comparison with other Kendal options. There is less seating downstairs, but in my opinion, it has more atmosphere and the tables are more suited to 1-4 diners, with upstairs often having larger groups, hence more noise, especially at weekends and if there is a work's do or...

Visited for my husband's birthday and weren't disappointed. Food was delicious, service was great- although it was busy we weren't rushed. Had been a while since we'd been here, but won't leave it so long to go back. At £70 for 3 courses each and a bottle if wine we thought it was really reasonable

Visited this establishment for the happy hour, the service was excellent, and the food was perfect. Good location in the town center, across the road from the brewery arts center, where you can park.

I went to this restaurant on a Thursday evening and just missed out on the cheaper menu option (arrive before 7pm). Food was great, not too pricey and I would recommend this place to anyone visiting Kendal.
