Full Moon Mandarin Cuisine - Monterey

Food is excellent! Served promptly and always hot! Vegetarian options: Garlic eggplant dish is YUMMY!

Surprising decent Chinese food in Monterey. Close to authentic Sichuan/Szechuan dishes.

Just ordered the BBQ PORK fried rice and a small wonton soup while visiting in town for the weekend as a late night goodie.It was definitely a 10/10.The rice had a great savory sesame flavor. When you add the veggies and meat to the bite, it adds a little sweetness giving it the perfect fried rice flavor.The won ton soup was perfectly salted and had some shrimp, chicken, couple bbq pork slices, bokchoy and, of course, a couple wonton. ? yum! I was sipping the broth, it was so good!Once again, 10/10, would order again.

Quite authentic Chinese restaurant with cheap prices. The most affordable meal in California.

I'm always looking for a solid lunch option that is delicious and won't break the bank. This week I was in the mood for Chinese food and my usual spot doesn't deliver so I decided to give Full Moon a try based on the good reviews. I ordered a Kung Pao Shrimp lunch special. It came with a generous serving of rice, egg drop soup, a veggie egg roll and salad. All in all I was very pleased. The Kung Pao Shrimp had red and green bell peppers, carrots and onions and a nice spice to the sauce. The egg roll was pretty average but crispy and went well with the spicy sauce. The soup was also average and I personally would like to try the hot and sour soup if it were an option. The salad was standard, a bit wilted because it was in with the hot food but still not bad.Take away I would definitely order from here again and am actually considering going to eat there next time I'm in the mood for Chinese food.
