Creative and attentive candle light diner - Edit
MOON was a great discovery in Siracusa/Ortiga! The setting is very cosy with little lamps and candles everywhere. All the paintings, the different assortment of tables and chairs and bar made out of old shelves gave a great artistic vibe. The staff was very welcoming, fluent in English and attentive during our dinner.
Read moreWe enjoyed the delicious fresh take on caponata (they added apples) and a Sicilian salad with fennel and orange. These and even all dishes we saw pass by were very pleasing to the eye. The salad, later on we found on, you can find in different places in the city but it was tasty nevertheless. As a main course we had topinambour risotto and leek ravioli. The risotto had little lemon tasting pearls which were a nice surprise. The ravioli was not really my taste but my partner liked it. The risotto was okay but had except for the pearls not that much flavor. It also felt more like rice pudding then risotto.
All in all our best experience in Siracusa but flavors could even improve the experience.

Fantastic - Edit
We were pleasantly surprised to find in such a small island a plant base restaurant which even though looked very posh prices were very reasonable. The host and waitress/waiters were outstanding. Even if you aren’t plant-base you would love this dining experience. We went three times in the three days we were there and eat twice and loved it. Bonus they have live music. Highly recommended.
Read morePros: Great menu, Great wine and €5 a glass, Great staff
Cons: We can’t go every day , Wish they had a restaurant in Marlow

Great vegan restaurant - Edit
Lovely environment and ambience. We had to sit inside due to all tables outside fully booked! This is s very popular spot. We had the vegan cheese platter and Hummus to start both delicious and then Moon carbonara and seaweed linguine amazing! Staff are super friendly and coffee and dessert also good.

The food at the MOON restaurant is outstanding, the ambience is beautiful and the service is great BUT unfortunately it is also quite expensive and the portion sizes are tiny. You need to order at least two to three courses to get really full!

This is a great restaurant in general that also happens to be entirely vegan. Dishes are creative, inspired by the region and made with fresh ingredients. Terrific staff and environment as well.

Syracuse’s perle - Edit
This is one of the most creative vegan restaurant that I have been to. They revisit Sicilian dishes and make a great vegan version. I would recommend the lasagna and carbonara. Enjoy!

The Food and Atmosphere are Perfect! - Edit
I can't say enough good things about this restaurant! The food was just delicious, the staff are friendly but not pushy and the atmosphere was spot on. The appetiser portions are generous and the mains are as you would expect for a la carte. Price is average for the area and worth every penny. This place is a must for everyone in the area, especially vegans!
Read morePros: Delicious , Great recommendations from staff, Fab atmosphere
Cons: Nothing!

Top quality, mainstream experience at a vegan restaurant - Edit
Moon is a phenomenon! It is top-rated and featured in several mainstream guidebooks to Sicily, yet it is a fully vegan restaurant. Staffed by a young, motivated and stylish waitstaff eager to talk about the local, slow cuisine being served, you are inundated with service at Moon. Indoor and outdoor venues, live music, and a full bar. The food is imaginative, uber-modern Sicilian cuisine. Portions are stylishly small. Like the rest of Sicily, prices are surprisingly affordable. A hot spot if you are visiting lovely Ortygia.
Read morePros: Stylish, Experimental, Comfortable
Cons: Light portions -- not the place to satisfy hunger

What a restaurant! Among the best I ever did - Edit
Moon is definitely one of my favorite veg' restaurants in the world. And I did a lot of them. The food is just amazing, from starter to dessert. Top quality products, very fine cuisine, I was surprised at each dish and came here twice in a row (so sad I cannot do more!). Their cheese, their ravioli, their pasta and their desserts are gorgeous. You wanna try every single dish. Besides, the staff is super friendly, the owner speaks many languages and will offer you the coffee or some liquor. And the place itself is beautiful. Visiting Siracusa and not visiting Moon is a felony!

Delicious lunch - Edit
I came here for lunch and sat at a table outside. It looked nice inside too, but the music seemed to be incredibly loud. I ordered the tempura veggies as an entree. This was a big serving and I really enjoyed it, the. I ordered the spring rolls for my main. These were very tasty and so I had to try dessert. The chocolate mousse was delicious. I have a feeling whatever you chose here would be nice. The staff were friendly and helpful and offered to explain anything we weren’t sure about. Everything was well presented too.

Expensive Gourmet - Edit
There's no doubt that the food is excellent and unique. Meat-eating local Syracusans that I met all agreed Moon is the best restaurant in Syracuse. My only complaint is that, like typical gourmet food, the portions are small. Plan on buying two plates to fill your belly. For me I'd rather eat somewhere more affordable. That's the only thing preventing MOON from getting a perfect rating from me.
Read morePros: Winning over the meat eaters, Very unique flavors
Cons: Expensive small portions

Fancy and tasty - Edit
The atmosphere is cozy and one of the waiters speaks several languages.
Read moreIt was quite expensive for the small portions but after all we were able to eat veganized meals like ravioli or carbonara. It was tasty although it wasn't exactly what you are expecting hearing the word carbonara (as it contained quite some turmeric) and the pasta was rather hard compared to the pasta we've had so far on our 2 week-Italy trip.
The tempeh was delicious (maybe a little bit too dark) and the burger okay, but nothing special. The potatoes that came with the burger were very oily.
Pros: Atmosphere (outside), Ravioli, Central location
Cons: Small portions, Expensive

I love this place! - Edit
I stayed in Siracusa for 3 days and I went to Moon twice! They have a lovely terrace so you can sit outside and the staff is super friendly and keen to explain the dishes, their English is pretty good too. The menu is awesome, didn't know what to choose so had to come back. There were things like spaghetti carbonara, zucchini noodles with pesto, a burger, springrolls, tofu with italian red wine, basically a mix of traditional italian dishes and products and untraditional dishes and products. The food was really delicious!! All in all would 100% recommend!
