I recently dined at Sum with Moon Japanese Dining, drawn in by a friend's rave reviews about their seafood rice bowl. Unfortunately, we both found it underwhelming and not as impressive as we had hoped. On a positive note, the service was attentive, and the ambiance was quite pleasant, making for a nice dining experience overall. While the seafood rice bowl didn’t meet our expectations, I appreciated the overall atmosphere and friendly staff. Given the overall experience, I’m not sure if I’d return, but it’s worth checking out if you’re in the area!

TDLR: Food is decent but terrible service. Would not recommend. Made a reservation for lunch at 1.30pm on a Saturday, and was made to wait in line with the walk-ins. When I tried to clarify with the front of house staff, she told us to join in the walk-in queue rudely even though it was already 1.30pm. There was only one person assigning tables, and when we reached the front of the queue, we shared that we felt it would be better if they had a separate queue for walk-in and prior reservation, even emphathizing that it was busy, she did not accept the feedback and put up an arguement with us with the most disgruntled look. That was a terrible start to the meal. The food was fine. When I went to pay with my membership card which I had purchased years ago, I found that the barcode had scratched off due to wear and tear over the years, and the phone app they suggested I download was not compatible for my phone (Google Pixel 9) as the app could only be downloaded on older Android versions. As a result, I could not collect any points for my meal. Though the food was decent, the terrible service put me off visiting Sun with Moon in the future. There are many better Japanese food options in Orchard, like Sen Ryo in ION with much better service, and staff members who accept feedback from customers.

Good value set meals that are of good quality. Highly popular and reservation recommended. Really extensive menu which will take many visits to work through. Excellent and friendly service.

I’ve only tried Mediterranean food a couple of times before, and I didn’t know much about it. But this restaurant really surprised me. The menu is much more diverse than I expected, with lots of options — especially grilled meats. If you love meat, this place is perfect. Their signature flatbread with dips was amazing. I thought it would be hard and crispy, but it was actually soft, warm, and really flavorful. We ordered the grilled prawns, a beef dish served with flatbread, and a small vegetable pancake. For dessert, we tried one of their signature items — a cheesecake that’s deep-fried on the outside and served with ice cream. Very unique and surprisingly good. Overall, it was a great experience and definitely exceeded my expectations. Even on a Monday afternoon, the place was quite busy.

Abby is friendly and provided a great service during our dinner. Thank you for the lovely experience. The food is awesome especially the bread, pide and the meats. The meats are still juicy and not dry from the grilling.

The food here is exceptional. The flavors are vibrant and balanced, with ingredients that are clearly fresh and thoughtfully sourced. The falafel is crispy on the outside and tender inside, while the grilled kebabs are juicy and full of flavor. Beyond the food, the service is fantastic. Their staff Abby is knowledgeable about the dishes and happy to make recommendations based on your preferences. It’s clear they care about your dining experience and want you to enjoy every bite. Whether you’re here for a casual meal or celebrating a special occasion, this Mediterranean restaurant is a perfect choice. Highly recommend!

Came back to Pistachio after 2 years — still solid, but not all hits. Good quality Mediterranean food overall. The slow-cooked lamb shank was rich and full of flavour, and the falafel was the bomb — crispy outside, fluffy inside, just the way it should be. The Adana kebab was a miss — pretty forgettable. We paid $90 for 2 pax after GST. Not surprised at the price — they do use quality ingredients, though the lack of a queue on a Saturday evening says a bit about the crowd appeal.

I came here on recommendation by someone to try their 200 day aged beef. While browsing through the menu, we also decided to get hummus and garlic cheese pita bread. I decided to get an iced lemon tea as well. The garlic cheese pita bread was an absolute banger. It was served hot and you could still see the cheese sizzling. The hummus also made for a good dip to go along with it. When the beef came, I was really wowed by the size of the bone. The meat also fell easily off the bone, and we could portion it seamlessly with the fork and knife. It also tasted great. The lemon tea was also quite well made. Reservations are recommended as I saw some people being turned away as it was full house. I would also want to return with a bigger group to try other things.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Pistachio yesterday! The Mediterranean cuisine was exceptional, from the tender lamb ribs and juicy beef short ribs to the delightful mixed grill and fresh-baked pita bread. The muhammara, moussaka, harissa sauce, and fiery halloumi cheese added delicious layers of flavor. The service was friendly and attentive, making the dining experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend Pistachio!

Have always wanted to try this place and finally did when it’s not too crowded before 6:30pm. The lamb chop paired with the cheesy eggplant is very flavourful and lamb done in almost like medium rare style which I really like. The dessert is also yummy and I love the ice cream that comes with it.
