Silver Moon Chinese Food — Restaurant in Santa Rosa

Being a transplant from San Francisco, I'm quite picky about Chinese food. I've never been a take-out gal, but with the pandemic, I gave Silver Moon a try a few months ago, and I now go weekly. Their noodles are good, and I love their curry chicken (goes really well with rice). You can also order things that aren't at the hot table if you don't mind to wait a bit or call in. I have ordered Singapore Noodles (curry thin rice noodles with BBQ pork) a few times, and also tried their pan-fried flat rice noodles (you can ask for shrimp, beef, or chicken). Both really good. The portion is big enough for me to have leftovers for the next day. And they have GREAT shrimp dumplings. Even better than what I get at take out places in San Francisco (partly why I don't usually like take-out!). They also have steamed buns, but I haven't tried them, since I prefer baked buns (only available on Saturday -- I usually get the custard ones). Oh, they also have sesame balls. If like the custard ones, but I think they also have them...

The service was awful. First I had to stand at the front of the restaurant for about 25-30 minutes before anyone even came to talk to me, that should’ve been my cue to leave but I was hungry and there is not a lot of other food options in the area. Finally I get my seat, the one fellow who wasn’t even my server got me a beer and some chips. The server finally came over after about another 15 minutes and I placed my order. It took over an hour to get my food. And I didn’t even see my waitress the whole time. I had to walk up to the front to get another beer because I had been just sitting there with an empty beer for about half an hour already. I finally got my food after an hour and it was just par. It wasn’t even that great, I could probably make better at home. Definitely not worth the way. They are not even overly busy. I’m not sure if they were just understaffed or if the staff they have is just slow. Either way maybe they should hire new people. If you’re in a hurry,...

I have driven past this place hundreds of times and finally decided to give it a visit. When I entered it looked a little dated, but was greater right away and had my order taken. It wasn't too busy so the whole process was pretty quick. They did have areas to sit and eat but I took my food to go. I ordered the Chow mein, Szechuan chicken, Teriyaki chicken with the sauce, a Pepsi and lastly you egg roll. When I arrived home I ate the food and was pleasantly delighted. I could tell the food was there and ready for a bit, but it still tasted delicious and would have to come a busier time to get some fresher versions. All the food tasted great and it only came out to about $15. Overall a great deal and good tasting food from a local stop. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a quick and delicious bite in the area. Parking is a little hard so you might have to park a little away...
