The Moonlight is a small independently owned restaurant that serves both Chinese and Canadian cuisine. I wouldn't personally recommend the egg rolls, as they are not as traditional as most are accustomed to.. However, I have found the following to be exceptional! Hot and Sour Soup {mild, med or hot], General Tso chicken, Mongolian Chili beef, Cheeseburgers made to order,... More

I have been a customer of Moonlight for quite a few years and have vary frequently had a bad meal. I have got to know the senior staff over the years and have had good service. The only issue i have is the cleanest of the establishment. They need to hire a clening company to go do a major cleanup... More

I used to frequent the Moonlight during my days as a student at St.F.X. It served relatively good Chinese cuisine given the calibre of what is available in the region. I had not been there in years and thought to give it a try during my last visit to Antigonish. The food that came out was far worse than what... More

This restaurant has been around for years. There's something about it that draws us there during our visits every year. There is nothing fancy or particularly outstanding about it. It's there along the main street of town and it's fun to watch the people and cars go by. While the food is not outstanding, it has always been good. Over... More

I ate there the other day, as Wongs is now under new management and from what I hear, it has gone the way of the dodo bird!

We like to have a good chinese food meal every once in a while and picked the Moonlight Cafe in downtown Antigonish. We were disappointed in the choice of chinese food combos and even more disappointed when the food arrived. Talking with local folk after eating there, we found out that most people order the fish and chips there, not... More

We live near Antigonish and this was one of our favorite restaurants - however the quality of the food is steadily going down. One week ago we ordered our favorite - the shanghai noodles. They were bland - completely tasteless. Previously they had been delicious - nice and spicy. The General Taos chicken had so little chicken in the dish... More
