Over The Moon Cafe

5/5 This restaurant ticked all of the boxes. My fiance made reservations for a date night, and it was incredible. We ordered the crab bisque and we were blown away. It was complex and hardy, utterly delicious. I ordered the lasagna which was amazing but she ordered the ragu, and I wish I had ordered the same. Incredible. Service was fantastic; attentive and pleasant. I absolutely recommend this place if you are looking for a romantic and intimate dinner with someone special.

Fantastic date-night restaurant. Perfect for Valentine's day or an anniversary dinner, complete with moody lighting and charming table settings. Food was delicious and beautiful, though a bit pricy. Service was a little slow, but forgivable as the food was outstanding and the wait staff were great.

Over The Moon has been on our bucket list for about 2 years. We finally secured a reservation and were welcomed into the muted stillness that is Over The Moon. Upon entering, you step into a dimly lit, eclectic setting that is elegant with just a bit of funky. The friendly, smiling staff verified our reservation and took us to our table. A quaint, cozy table for 2 with a deep arm chair, reminiscent of an older wing back chair, and a bench seat, piled high with pillows for comfort. That bench was like sitting on my own personal cloud. We ordered a beautiful bottle of wine to complement the duck breast, that we both knew we would be ordering and my husband had a salad... which he said was wonderful. He raved about the dressing! Now, that duck... Oh My Yummm! Crispy skin, perfectly medium-rare... succulent, aromatic, indulgently rich, exquisite... so many adjectives. My husband has not ever been a big fan of duck, but he loved it, he ate every bite! Then, there was Turtle Pie. When you have red wine left to finish... indulge in chocolate. The pie was sweet, without being overly so. It was silky and absolutely delectable. With a smaller menu, which allows attention to detail and perfecting their dishes, we will most definitely be back to this wonderfully eclectic, romantic eatery.

We were able to be seated as a walk in right away. The ambiance is extremely cozy and romantic, I’d only really recommend for date nights. Most people seemed to be there on a special occasion. The food was simply incredible. You can tell each dish was made to order. Fantastic butter shrimp which I think was our favorite dish and creamy Brussels sprouts appetizer (warning: lots of cheese). The seared halibut was bright and fresh. The brown butter scallop risotto was so rich and delicious, I couldn’t stop eating it. Great wine selection as well and the moondrop cocktail was strong and tangy. Sabrina our waitress took fantastic care of us. Didn’t have room for dessert but we will definitely be back whenever we’re in town!

This is my favorite restaurant in Tacoma as every meal I’ve had there is out of this world delicious. Their salmon dish and their burrata appetizer are my fav menu items but everything they make is amazing. The staff is amazing as well!
