You know when you are so hungry because you haven't eaten all day, and when your food finally arrives it is so disgusting you can barely eat most of it? Welcome to China Moon. My experience begun positively when the woman who answered the phone could speak English, and was very friendly, albeit saying she'd call back in 2 minutes and 15 minutes later nothing. The barramundi spring rolls were quite nice, and the king prawns with snow peas were edible. However, here is where the positives end. Between us we had beef in oyster sauce, chinese mushroom and brocolli, mixed vegetables and tan tong chicken. Everything was so bland and tasteless it was like eating overpriced gooey air, smothered in grease. Every dish was essentially have a tub of oil with half a tub of goo, and ingredients that tasted like nothing. I have never known anywhere to screw up beef and oyster sauce before but apparently it can be done. Would never eat there again. Disgusting and bland food.

I would not call this place a restaurant. I would struggle to call it "budget-style homestyle dining". The quality of food is probably on par with 7-11. We made a booking for 7 pm, some people were late so we didn't order until 7.30. The restaurant was empty.

Food didn't begin to arrive until after 9.30! Ridiculous. The vegetarian pizza was literally those Heinz steamfresh frozen bagged vegetables on some lebanese bread, for $16.50 that's absurd. The waiter was nice enough, The restaurant didn't have a particular nice interior. When you read the menu the prices look alright, but when you see what you get it's insanely disproportionate. Some other people were satisfied with steaks, tried pasta dish which was just overcooked pasta in cream. Would not return.

Was a bit hesitant to order due to all the recent negative reviews but was told they were the best so gave them a try anyway. The service was fine, delivery didn't take too long. Can't comment on the ambience. The Leone was swimming in oil, it soaked through the Pizza box, making the crust so soggy it was essentially a soup. Would not order again. The Freddie was quite nice. Would order that again. Overall it was alright, nothing to rave about.

The pizzas were a lot smaller than I expected. Quite expensive for the size. The shop interior was nice but I ordered take away so can't really comment. Staff were nice. Had the Diavola which was alright. Nothing more than a Pepperoni pizza really. The crust was nice. Il Capitano was disgusting. Aesthetically it looked horrible and it tasted about as bad. Could not eat it after one slice.

Soggy inedible crust covered in a kilo of cheap rubber cheese swimming in oil. Disgusting. I don't understand the positive reviews on here. Took twice as long as they said for delivery to arrive, the driver couldn't even speak enough English to know what "pull the door open" meant. Save your money and order better quality pizza for half the price from dominos. Only slightly better than what I'd expect from a kebab shop. Didn't go in so I can't comment on the Ambience.
