Great service, good food, reasonable prices. The menu offers a lot of variety and there are daily food and beverage specials. The setup of the restaurant is pretty much all bar style seating, but it actually works pretty well at Full Moon. You constantly have severs attending to you or other customers nearby, and so it’s almost impossible to go unnoticed if you need anything. Again, the staff here is on their game and we were really impressed. Definitely looking forward to going back!

I had an amazing experience at Full Moon! The oysters were fresh and delicious, and the risotto was absolutely perfect—creamy, flavorful, and so satisfying.

Full Moon is a must-visit if you’re looking for quality seafood and a great atmosphere.

Unexpected...the outside looks like a typical plaza restaurant, but inside is fun, cozy and very welcoming! We sat around the bar and got recommendations from Dennis and Crystal that were superb. Four of us had different menu items and were all very satisfied. Order up was quick and the seafood was delicious. Marvelous cocktails and cheesecake rounded out the meal.

We had an amazing dining experience! The complimentary starter of seasoned potatoes was absolutely delicious, and while I skipped the coleslaw, everything else we ordered was incredibly fresh and flavorful. Our server was attentive and made the whole experience even better. Definitely will return soon!

This place was fantastic. I was able to get my oyster fix. I didn't order an entree and just went with a few small dishes. The oyster's were from Jamestown 5/5. They were nice and fresh. They were a little sweet, a little briney, salty and delicious. Their condiments for the oyster's were lemon, horseradish and Tabasco hot sauce. Would have loved to have a vinaigrette with shallots too. Bacon wrapped scallops was 4/5. The bacon was nice and crispy, but the scallops had no color. I was hoping for some type of sear on the scallops and was just a tad under salted. The scallops doneness was great and very tender. Ahi Seared Tuna was so good. Beautiful presented with seared exterior, sesame seeds and raw interior. Besides the oyster's this was my favorite dish of the night. The texture of the sesame seed was nice with the tender tuna. It was served with spicy mayo, but I would've loved just having soy sauce with this as well. All and all 5/5 for me. My wife got the seafood mornay. Whew, it was delicious. The sauce was thinner, but tasted amazing. The shrimp and the scallops we perfectly cooked. Super tender and juicy. It was mouth watering good, 5/5. For desert we got the orange creamsicle cake and the Alligator crawfish cheese cake. The orange creamsicle cake was ok. The frosting was hard because it came right out of the cooler. The cake was a bit stiff because of the same reason. It probably would have been phenomenal fresh or warmed up a bit, but this was a little bit of a let down. 3/5 Turns out the alligator crawfish cheese cake is not really a dessert. It's hot and savory. Better as an appetizer and the name was a bit deceiving, but it is in the appetizer section and not the actual desert section on the menu. It was phenomenal though. Loved the chunks of crawfish with a nice bit of crust and gooey, creamy, hot interior. 5/5 for sure. Service was slow, because they didn't have enough people working on a Sunday night. It was busy, which is awesome, but let's get our awesome servers some help out here. We loved our server when we were able to get time with her, but I couldn't give it a 5 star because we were idle more then I would like to admit. Great, nice people who were all working hard to help everyone, but they just need more people back there.

I visited Full Moon Oyster Bar - Concord for the first time this evening, and I enjoyed it so much. I met my best friend whom I hadn't seen in person in nearly a year. This restaurant was the perfect backdrop to our reunion. We shared "The Full Moon" entree: FANTASTIC! We had a few drinks. That margarita -- my favorite drink -- was the best one I've had in a while. My friend enjoyed her martini, which was garnished with giant green olives. I didn't think I'd like the bar seating, but I did. However, the vertically challenged (aka 'short people') must high jump to sit on the stools. It was a great night, and I will definitely visit this restaurant again!

One of my favorite restaurants to stop at when I'm in the area. I love the Food, Service, and atmosphere. I have never had a bad experience at Full Moon Oyster Bar here in Concord. Also if you go at the right time you might get to hear some live music which is always a plus. I would most definitely recommend it if you are in the area.

Best grilled oysters in Charlotte. And the price beats other options out there. They do them New Orleans style so you’ll get a nice char from the oysters while enjoying them in their buttered goodness. We drive 45 minutes just to eat here
