  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
A popular destination in Half Moon Bay for 30 years, Pasta Moon Restaurant serves contemporary Italian cuisine using the freshest local produce available- in fact, easily the finest dining on the coast; (and not the most expensive!). You'll find a cozy setting for lunch or dinner, surrounded by old arched casement windows which once brought light into the Burlingame Public Library, and you'll be served by an attentive and knowledgeable staff.

    From the very beginning, throughout our dining time and til the end, everything was impeccable. Lovely location with ample parking. House made pastas you can't go wrong with. The seafood dishes were all fresh and well prepared. Service was excellent. Highly recommend.

    Overall, great experience. The service at lunch wasn't amazing by any stretch. The person filling our water regularly splashed water on the table and didn't seem bothered enough by it to clean it up. I had the miso cod, which was fairly disappointing. The broth was overpowering, the flavor combination was questionable (carrots and black cod?), and the dish was overall meh. The bread service was nice. My caesar salad was excellent. My wife's della casa salad was overdressed, but nice.

    Pasta Moon is my favorite Italian restaurant in the world the service and the food is beyond my expectations!! I brought my sister and brother-in-law, and they truly enjoy their experience and their dishes! I have their famous lasagna, which would definitely feed you to three people, and my sister had the Cara Cara salad, Frito misto and pasta. I am a loyal fan!

    Pasta Moon was well prepared for the Valentine’s Day rush. The prefix menu provided many alternatives and the ones we selected were prepared perfectly. Service was superb with all the staff being quite attentive to diners needs. They exceeded my expectations.
