"eating here is always excellent, and they do not scrimp on their portions, especially the paella, which is very generous! do not let them be tempted to order paella for the exact number in their party, as the portion size will be huge, unless they have no tapas stars. we were a party of 2 adults and 2 children (11 13). we had a selection of tapas stars (approx. 3 pp) followed by a paella mixta for 2 people, and we were filled! that was more than enough, actually enough for us to take away a Doggy bag that later fed 2 adult to dinner. the restaurant is consistently packed, especially on Saturday night, so reservations are advisable to avoid disappointment or long waiting times. my only handle is that the service is very slow. we have eaten there on 2 separate Saturday evenings and it always feels like they are a little short staff. at a point in the evening I saw 5 employees behind or at the bar, and only 2 tend to customer. to give something context, at this time there were only 2 customers at the bar, but a complete restaurant. if they are not in a hurry, then slower service will not be a problem, but the lack of personal neigen too tables always makes the attention of the waiting staff very laborious, and the delivery of things like drinks very slow. my biggest thing with the restaurant is the toilets, especially the lady room. with this opportunity were 2 out of 3 damen cubiken unusable, with paper and other waste substances blocked probably this is due to bad water pressure and flushing, but whatever the reason does not make for a pleasant experience, which leads to a long waiting period for the 1 work room."

"Having been to Moo previously and as I was passing me and the girlfriend fancied a cocktail as they were advertised for £6 a go on the front window, why not! Went in and told the waitress we were only drinking and she said it...was OK. We sat down and looked at the cocktail menu. Menu wasn't clear what cocktails were £6 each so I went up to ask. Guy behind the bar just said the classics were included so fair enough. Went back to my table, looked at the menu but none were classified as classics so a bit confused went back up to the bar to ask and was intercepted by the waitress. Don't know if she was having a bad day but she was really quite rude and abrupt in advising me that it was actually a restaurant and thus table service and that I should go and sit down and wait to be served. (maybe don't advertise £6 cocktails on the window if your that restaurant orientated and also dont have a bar there if its just a restaurant). Went to sit down (didn't want to get told off again) and chatted with my girlfriend and told her I thought the waitress was pretty spiky. Now looked over to see the waitress serving the table next to us, caught her eye and got a look of a face like thunder lol (if you're gonna be that stressy maybe look for a new vocation away from hospitality anyway when she came over she took our order of 2 porn star martinis. 5 minutes later, the drinks turned up and I have to say that taste of the drinks were definitely as sour as the waitresses attitude. Not a very good balance of taste at all. Much better places to spend your money on brick lane. Thank moo very much!"
