This place belongs in the 6/5 category. I wish I could give them an extra star. We were in town May 13 for an event and end up over at Half Moon. The staff, the atmosphere , the food, the drinks, the experience were all top notch. I put the staff first because they really scored extra points for my group and I. One of our forgetful friends left all their belongings there accidentally and they were kept safely until we realized and made it back. Thank you again (she was here on a trip from South Carolina and had left behind all her ID , credit card and money 😱🤦) I’ll be back again

We have always been fans of Half Moon since they opened but will never return. I was in with my 3 year old daughter and ordered two slices. I did not specify that it was to go, and was never asked. When the server/cashier put it on a paper plate and tray, I apologized and said it was to go. In an act of pettiness, he looked me in the eye, and dropped the pizza in a to go box from like two feet in the air. He might as well just smothered it in the box with his fists, it was so passive aggressive and petty.
