Moon Garden
4011 St Claude Ave, New Orleans, LA
Crema's Take
“Moon Garden crafts some of the most inventive fruit teas in New Orleans, with standout offerings like their watermelon and mango-blueberry-lavender blends that strike that perfect balance of refreshing and indulgent. Beyond drinks, their salmon sandwich is a revelation—thoughtfully seasoned and worth pairing with one of their creative beverages—making this a rare spot where both the beverage program and light food shine equally. It's the kind of intimate, creative space that rewards lingering over coffee or tea, whether you're meeting friends or taking time for yourself, though arriving with patience during peak hours pays off.”

9/10 i like everything but the wait super under staff I have went with a group of people. We had the hotdog the hot sausage several of the drinks off the menu none of us really had complaints the way to order along way to get the food was just long because it was only like two staff members back there
Reviews are personal opinions, so I am going to leave that for myself and 3 others I was with. Customer Service was just fine. The boba (chewy tapioca) itself was great. The drinks, even with "Less Sugar," were coyingly sweet. I mean really sweet. We asked for Lychee Jelly in some of the drinks put instead received popping boba (which is not the same and two of us can't stand). It was an online order. There is an option for Extra Tapioca, but I assumed (sorry for that) that boba already came in it IF the option was for extra. And it did come in one of the drinks but not all...super weird. ONE drink was supposed to be blended and was just iced. Not a great experience. We couldn't drink our drinks. But great chewy boba and nice people.
Magnificent!! The teas we ordered—mango and blueberry lavender—were outstanding, with just the right amount of sweet goodness. We also tried the salmon sandwich—OMG, it was seasoned to perfection! The pesto mozzarella sandwich was equally amazing. This place is a true gem. The only thing that could make it better would be some indoor seating.
Literally the best fruit tea drinks in the city, try watermelon. It really is a hidden gem. I had the pleasure of renting out the space for senior prom for my daughter's school, it's a small class but everything was perfect. It was so easy to work with the owners they are extremely accommodating, and everything is fairly priced. I suggest using them as a event space for a small event. I will definitely use them again for a event!
I ordered salmich which comes with chips & drink ($15.50), but I replaced the drink w/Mango Lychee Tea passion fruit jellies toppings ($26). That was a bit pricey imo. The salmich was good, chips Mesquite Zappos bbq nothing special, tea was good.
