just wow - Edit
Not only is the vibe exquisite and the staff so friendly but the food is honestly some of the best vegan food I’ve ever had. If you go, try the vegan cheeses, the burrata and ricotta was insane 😍😍

Very well curated - Edit
We loved our dinner at Moon. It is a bit fancy, but still down to earth and with a great value for money.
Read moreThe atmosphere is nice and the dishes are really creative. We really enjoyed that they are experimenting with plant-based ingedrients to replicate some tipical Italian dishes.
The only thing I disliked was that one of the waiters kept insisting for me to get an (alcolohic) beverage instead of just drinking water.

Very tasty! - Edit
The cappuccino was very tasty and you can even choose between oat or soy milk (rather rare in Sicilia). We had the "cheese" platter and the vegan tiramisu from the snack menu which were both amazing!

A wonderful experience - Edit
Amazing to have incredible vegan Italian food in the heart of the beautiful island of Ortigia. The cocktails were incredible, the starters and pasta were exceptional, the setting on a warm September evening idyllic, and the welcome and service were charming. A truly memorable experience in every way.

Unfassbares veganes Restaurant - Edit
Es war alles super lecker und unfassbar kreativ und alles in eigene Herstellung. Wir waren mehrmals bei unserem Aufenthalt dort zum Lunch und Dinner. Auch der Service und vor allem die Location waren besonders. Den Ramen habe ich gleich 2 mal bestellt - probiert den unbedingt!!!

Delicious pasta but not a great experience - Edit
Food first:
Read morePasta dishes were great (I think they do this best), esp the carbonara.
The sushi was ok (but so tiny) and the cheese plate was pretty but the blandest I've ever tasted other than the smoked one. The others lacked flavor and all tasted similar. The pistachio cannoli dessert was yum.
The experience: disappointing. Our pasta order was forgotten. We ordered at 7.20pm and after patiently waiting for more than an hour (and no wait staff coming over to the table to even ask us if we wanted a drink), I inquired about it. 20 minutes later, still nothing. The table next to us who arrived when we did had gone and other tables that sat down after us were eating the carbonara I had ordered probably while they were out somewhere else having aperitivos.
At this point, it was nearing 9pm and I went to speak to another staff member. At first, they suggested that I just pay for the starters already eaten or get the food take away (!), and couldn't tell me why I hadn't received my meal. The staff member who originally took our order was rude. I was offended. I explained that I had traveled to Syracuse just for this meal, waited hours for them to open, and had an hour long drive left to get to Catania. I also told them I came to support their vegan business and at 9pm, where else was I going to find decent vegan options?
We finally got our food and what seemed like a genuine apology and they knocked the final bill down which we appreciated. We did notice other tables waiting a long time for their meals too, but just not as long as us.
Good food, but you shouldn't leave a dining experience feeling like crap.

Amazing authentic vegan Sicilian food - Edit
The food was amazing. I loved all the cheeses they had. The staff was also very friendly. I went with my non vegan friends and they were blown away by how good the food was.

Ottimo locale con molte alternative - Edit
Siamo stati a mangiare ieri sera al Moon io vegano e 3 amici non vegani. Siamo stati tutti e 4 molto soddisfatti sia dalla varia scelta del menù che dai piatti. Tempura ottima e leggera, sushi molto particolare e carbonara cremosissima. Prezzi onesti visto il tipo di ristorante. Servizio gentile e preparato, ci hanno anche svelato il trucco per l'ottima salsa della carbonara che senz'altro proverò a replicare.

Lovely gourmet place in the heart of Siracusa‘s old town - Edit
The restaurant serves Italian classic dishes 100% plant-based. Beautiful location in the centre of Ortygia (old-town of Siracusa). Great wine menu, which perfectly matches the tasty food.

Beautiful vegan restaurant and cocktail bar - Edit
Rare to find vegan Italian food that is high standard whilst also being in a cool beautiful building with an outside seating area. Good prices. Best to ignore the daft concept hype eg - ‘moon’ stands for move Ortigia out of the ordinary ! Busy bustling place - great staff, nothing to not like. Don’t need to deliberate on this. Also menu range covers most tastes from Italian classics veganised to pretend cheese and meat (which isn’t for me)
Read morePros: Beautiful place with great cocktails , Menu - great and original , Music
Cons: Heavy on the ‘cool’

THE reason to go to Siracusa - Edit
Extraordinary! Extraordinarily innovative kitchen, the best Carbonara you‘ll ever taste. Friendly and beautiful staff, beautiful and tasty drinks, tasty and amazing food. This is a reason to go to Sicily. I won’t believe anyone trying to tell me that the non-vegan Cannolo can do better than the MOON-ones! Go there! I would love to have such a place in Vienna.

Vegan options but not exceptional food - Edit
The setting was nice, there were enough vegan options to choose from, but the food was not that exceptional (except for the desserts!) and the staff played loud music that didn't really enhance the otherwise nice atmosphere. Not sure I'd go there again, or if so just for one course and the dessert...

Breathtaking! - Edit
Went here when visiting Sicily with my Italian in-laws. This was their first vegetarian/vegan experience, and I wanted to show them that you can eat fantastic healthful food and it be plant based. We were not disappointed! This place should be a pilgrimage for any travelling Plant lovers in Sicily ❤️

Great spot for some fantastic food - Edit
Really nice setting inside or outside, serving up great food with creative options and fantastic service. Tried the cheese board, mozzarella starter, carbonara, tempeh spaghetti, cannoli, tiramisu, burger and cheesecake. I wouldn't recommend the burger and was slightly disappointed being that it wasn't anything special, definitely should have chosen a more creative option. Every dish was tasty, as were the drinks. It's not cheap, but for something a bit nicer it's perfect.
