Very disappointed. For starters, this restaurant was advertised as a top pick for vegetarians. After arriving, we quickly found out that there are two vegetarian options, mac and cheese and a veggie burger. After being told the wait for food was over 30 minutes due to the kitchen being busy we decided to order an appetizer and a beer. Not even 1/10th of the way into my beer and the entrees arrive, no appetizer to be found. We both ordered the veggie burger which comes with a side salad. The salad was wasnt noteworthy but the veggie burger was, in a bad way. It was mushy, not seasoned and an all around disappointment. After "solving" the appetizer issue, our appetizer finally arrived when we were almost done with out entree. We ordered the olive and veggie plate, advertised as three different types of olives with veggies, black bean hummus and pita bread. There was 4 olives, all soggy pimento variety from a can. And then there was the hummus which I am 100% convinced was a black bean burger mushed up and called hummus. The waiter was kind enough not to charge us for the appetizer but it still didnt do much to fix the dining experience. For a "natural foods" business, I really had high hopes but was very disappointed.

My husband and I frequented this place and gave it many chances because the owner is a really nice guy and their food is great. However, when "The cat is away, the mice will play". The staff is inconsistent when the owner isnt in. You can definitely tell. On a good day youll get the regular staff or the owner working. However the kitchen staff is sooooo slow! Last straw was a 20 min wait on appetizers that came out cold (shrimp and vegetable skewers) and 40 min for our entree and their excuse was the place was busy. Busy eh? I look around and there are empty tables and no one sitting in the patio area.. Ive seen busier when theres a live band and have never waited this long. We had a clear shot of the kitchen where we were sitting and the kitchen staff was busy talking amongst each other most of the time. Time management was horrible. Ineffective management. Anyhow, I recommend the breakfast here, salmon entree and any of the burgers. Stay clear of the shrimp skewers. I hope they upgraded to better quality shrimp for the price. With that said dont come super hungry and be prepared to have patience to wait just in case you get a staffer who acts as if they just did not want to be at work that day.

I went by this morning for breakfast at 10:00AM. When you enter there is a sign that says see the counter for seating. There was a line of folks so I stood in line. The people in front of me ordered drinks so when it got to me, I said I wanted seating outside. The employee said go sit wherever. I wasnt given silverware, a menu, or anything. I chose to sat outside and I was by myself. There were probably 3 other tables occupied outside and the other folks had been waited on. I went back inside and grabbed a menu and walked back to my seat. There were two different wait staff working the patio and both said hello to me but never said anything like they would wait on me momentarily. I waited 10 mins without receiving any type of service. I walked back in and returned my menu. I will not be going back.

Outstanding breakfast! First of all, the service was great (at the bar). Had the burrito and a pancake: The burrito is different compared to a lot of breakfast burritos in that its more-so Mediterranean/Italian, imo. This is in contrast to the usual Mexican-style breakfast burrito one would find at many places. It comes out to be really good; the garlic aioli is wonderful. The pancake is very comparable to Northstars (in the Columbus area). Its superbly soft and melts in your mouth. You can definitely taste the lemon in it and the Lavender syrup brings a unique flavour. I look forward to going back to try some of their morning cocktails and also hitting them for dinner. 9/3: Just had dinner here today. JUST AS GOOD AS BREAKFAST

Staff is inconsistently friendly (ie some shouldnt be here) and lack urgency. Ive tried coming in for a quick cup of coffee, and with no wait, that really isnt possible. The kitchen is also REALLY, really slow. It took over 10 minutes for veggies and hummus and over 20 minutes for our dinner. Weve been here on several occasions and the above has consistently been our experience. Nevertheless, the food is good and fairly priced so we will return when time is not important. The owner is really nice! If they could nail down the aforementioned concerns... It would be a 4 star review.

My husband and I go to the Harvest Moon Cafe on a regular and never had a bad experience. The staff is very nice and polite. The atmosphere is amazing and the food and drinks are good as well. I highly reccommend the Hibiscus Cosmo. Its my favorite. This place is very warming and can get crowded really quick. Even still they always acknowledge there customers and treat them great. I will be going there this evening with a friend of mine for her first time. Im sure she will like it.

Awesome! We stopped on the way back to Michigan from North Carolina. What a surprise. Totally worth skipping the Micky Ds and spending the extra time for wonderful food. Everything was delicious. So we stopped on our way back and got food here again. The second time, even though they were out of the hummus for the wrap, they came up with a fantastic alternative. Being from Michigan, I told the waitress, Harvest Moon cafe has improved my opinion of the whole state of Ohio.

Stopped here for dinner during a cross-country drive and was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and quality of the food and beverages served. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and I got lucky enough to see some live music while I was there. The prices were a bit higher than I was looking for, but worth every penny for the sheer craftsmanship that goes into every dish. I hope I can pass through this area again so I can come back and visit.

Wanted to love this place. Tried it 3 different times. Service staff was rude and indifferent (typical hipster attitude) not to mention slow on all occasions. Twice we went for breakfast and wanted the breakfast hash but they were out of it both times. Disappointing when there are only about 6 breakfast items on the menu to begin with. The food we did have was really good, but unfortunately the service is awful. Three strikes... we wont be back.

So the service is shaky. They are really slow at getting your order prepared but I think its usually because a bunch of teens are usually working and they dont really care about customer service. The redemption of Harvest Moon is that their atmosphere is nice, and their food is always good, alittle pricey, but good. Overall, the prices and service hasnt stopped me from going. The food is always good and really, thats all that matters.

Good drinks and food, not so good (or even polite) service. A small group of us went to the cafe to get drinks and read for a while, but when lunch hour approached a waitress approached us hinting that we should order food in addition to our drinks. We offered to switch to a smaller table that had opened up so that they could use ours for lunch guests, but then the manager flat out told us that we should buy food or just leave, so we left.
