That said, @ $8 it was one of the cheaper options that included meat. You can add meat to the other salads/wraps for $1.50 (chicken) or $2.75 (steak or shrimp), but it starts to get kind of expensive for a wrap. The salads look large, and I will try one next time (although again, it starts to get pricey if you want to add meat and more than 4 toppings). I understand that freshly prepared food is a bit more expensive - you get what you pay for - but I can't really justify regularly spending $9-$12 on a salad for lunch when Wegman's is right down the road ($6 for a huge market fresh salad).

Again, it was very good & I'll go back, but just not as often as I would like to. —NoBS

But at $10+ for a half-salad and a drink, it's on the expensive side, and quickly gets out of reasonable lunch territory if you make additions. I'm glad to see they've been doing well enough to open a second location, and I'll certainly go back for the quality and tasty creations. —daverea

2013-02-17 00:10:52   Oh, half moon. I had such high hopes for you. A place dedicated to salad, tons of ingredients, and artichokes available as topping. But the decor! And the chopping! If I'm having a really nice salad with interesting ingredients based on baby field greens, then 1)why would I want these ingredients mashed together, instead of laid out and presented beautifully? and 2)why would I want to eat it in a pretty cold dining area with plastic/metal chairs? Consider re-doing the decor so it's a nice place to actually sit and eat - say wooden tables and chairs and and putting in wooden floors or cozy rugs. Otherwise, it's hard to justify paying so much for a salad when you feel you have to scarf it down because the atmosphere isn't there. —LH
