I hate to say this, but Moonshine just seems like such a waste of space in that cool Division/Damen area. We need something a little bit cooler, because there's really nothing special on their menu. more

I used to really love this place. But the service has gotten horrific. Last time we went (last weekend), before we were even seated we were treated in a snotty and rude way.

Avoid this place if you want good bar or a decent wine list. Not a good experience - it smelled like old/rotten beer and my glass and fork were dirty. It was a disgusting e xperience. The staff is untrained and lazy. When I complained the manager, John, was a total jerk! more

I had an absolutely awsome experience at Moonshine. The atmosphere was friendly and inviting, and the service was given with a smile. After my first experince there, I told my family and friends about it. They have grown to love it love it too! We celebrated my aunt's birthday there not too long ago. Moonshine is GREAT!!!! I would recommend... more

Everything the guy above said times two. The worst was the rude staff there. Forget the horrible food. When I wasnt watching my back because of the people in the place i was feuding with the staff they got nothing right. An excuse for a bar. Hand over money and dont complain about it. more
