    As always, the Moth did not disappoint with anything! Too bad they are closing soon after 15 years. They will be missed!

    We sat on the outside covered patio for lunch. The service was excellent and attentive. The food selection was appropriate. Cocktail, wine and beer options were extensive. We are very disappointed that The Moth will be closing in mid May.

    First time visiting. Was expecting quieter ambiance. Waitress at the table behind us kept bumping my chair. Food was good. Waitress was nice.
