Harvest Moon Gourmet Bistro

Harvest Moon is my go-​to spot for lunch.
In the Hialeah/​Miami Springs area it is extremely difficult to find healthy eating options, so Harvest Moon is a God-​send.
It has a huge selection of sandwiches, salads and smoothies that are all fresh. Every day they sell homemade soups and offer various specials.
Let me start by saying, the food is really good. You can taste the freshness. The hummus is made in house and one of the best I’ve ever had.
Some awesome dishes are the Black Bean Melt, the hummus, the Southwestern wrap and the mushroom soup. You can also never go wrong with a banana smoothie.
Tip: If you are picking up, order beforehand. Everything is made to order and may take a while. Also, they only have outdoor seating and only accept cash. There is an ATM at the location.

Delicious lunch! We had the black bean chicken melt and a tuna melt; both were very tasty. The outside of the locale doesn’t do this restaurant justice. Only downside was our wait time to receive the food after ordering, but we were there during peek lunch hour, and it was quite busy.
Overall, great lunch spot.

This place is amazing, black bean melt is so delicious and it’s healthy. They give you a very generous portion and it’s so good you can’t stop eating.

This restaurant is one of my favorite all time lunch place! Yes they only accept cash and parking isn’t the best… But any dish that they make is guaranteed to be delicious! I have tried just about everything on the menu and it’s all perfect!

Good food, dirty place, kitchen is the size of a small bathroom, I feel bad for employees all cramp up in there, and the outside siting is hot,

Everything here is delicious! I’ve had the greek salad, the gyro melt, and the turkey melt. Service is quick. I love the local feel, and the outdoor seating area, it is a perfect Saturday lunch spot. The only down side here is that they only accept cash.

Just reviewing the Greek salad here: it’s not a Greek salad.
The «feta» cheese is actually cotija which has a completely different and less interesting flavor and texture than real feta. The dressing, which should be a simple olive oil red wine vinaigrette, is instead a «vidalia onion» sickly sweet mess that tastes like mostly high fructose corn syrup.
You get 6 olives and a few slices of cucumber to round out the pile of romaine, garbanzos, tomato, little bit of purple cabbage, and crumbled up non-​feta. They get 1 extra star for not just using iceberg lettuce.
I won’t be back any time soon. No gluten free bread option for sandwiches and very limited vegetarian/​vegan menu.

Great food: I had the chicken salad sandwich on pita bread which was really yummy
Service was alright: kind of slow if you’re in a rush but the waiters are attentive
Cash only: the reason I gave it four stars. I never carry cash so this is an inconvenience for me. They have an ATM this can be a hassle of you’re picking up an order for a group.
Overall this is definitely a place worth trying out just make sure to bring cash.

To sum it up: The service was nice, the food was not worth the expensive price. I should have read some more info on the place before going. The place only takes cash. I won’t return since I’ve been to better places that are much cheaper and have the same quality food.

This place never disappoints! I have ate here over 30+ times (I work in the area) and every time the food has been delicious and fresh! The services is great as well! Yes, it’s cash only but it’s well worth it and they have an ATM on location. Definitely try their banana bread, the best I’ve had!

If I could give this place 10 stars, then I would definitely do so. I was introduced to it by a coworker and have been here everyday for a week. Everything I have tried on the menu is absolutely delicious!
*Cash only but they do have an ATM.

My favorite place to go to for a casual, healthy and refreshing lunch. I have been coming here ever since it opened (I grew up in the Springs) and have brought everyone I know to eat at Harvest Moon. It is definitely one of Miami’s finest delights! You feel as though you are traveling back in time with the beautiful flowers and array of vines, old Miami Springs architecture, and community feel. Everyone is polite and treats you like family. Make sure you have cash handy, but if not they have an ATM inside with a decent service charge of $ 2.25.
Don’t miss out!!!

Well-​sized portions, flavorful food and great service. What else could you ask for?
As soon as I walked in a guy asked me if it was my first time and since it was, he quickly guided me through the menu
I ordered to go: gyro wrap and one of their specials, the falafel salad. And please, do not think of a tasteless salad. Così buona, senza parole!
Last but not least, great prices as well.
Worth te visit!

Though this place is only outdoor dining and can get a little warm. To me if they have fresh food, natural juices and fresh baked goods it deserves 5 stars. We need more places like this. Great for lunch if you work in a stuffy office and want to get out and be in the open. Prices are reasonable for fresh food.

You know when you enter the office with onion breath from having lunch, and feel slightly guilty for the person in the cubicle next to you? Well, this place makes onion breath worth it… Yeah, I said it.
My boyfriend told me that he wanted to visit this place after his coworkers were raving about how delicious it was at the office. Me being selfish, bored, and hungry, decided to go with my mother while he was working… And I’m glad I did.
Firstly, it is not difficult to find parking. There is plenty of street parking in the area, however the entrance may be a little difficult to find. Do not feel intimidated as the staff is very friendly and excited to help. I will begin by saying that YOU MUST ORDER BEFORE YOU SIT & IT IS CASH ONLY! I know it may seem a little weird, but hey, respect the hustle. There are menus in the inside, and I recommend you know what you would like to order before you get in line.
I ordered the gyro melt and my mother ordered the black bean melt– both were equally delicious. Consider these melts like little mini pizzas, made with love, too many toppings, and just the right amount of cheese. They definitely come highly recommended! I did not have a salad, but they looked large! We also had some freshly baked brownies that were slap-​yo-​momma good. Luckily, I didn’t slap my momma. Although the portions were large, we did not leave feeling guilty or regretful. This is how I know the ingredients were fresh.
By the way, do not forget to tip the kitchen staff and your server. They collect the tip differently.
4 stars only because it is cash only & has obscure hours.

Absolutely love this granola little bistro! Everything is simple, delicious and fresh. I love the carrot, Apple, ginger juice! And the hummus sandwich on toasted multigrain. Also, the desserts are all fantastic only to be enjoyed at their outdoor covered eating area. Come check this lil gem out!!!

Omg suuuuuuper yummy!!! I wanted something different for lunch… the service was great & very fast! Good to know that there are other things to eat in Hialeah other than Cuban food lol. Will most definitely be returning… The Black Bean Melt & Turkey Melt were absolutely delicious!!! I can’t wait to go back & try something different off the menu :)

I never really liked garbanzo beans before visiting Harvest Moon– but it really is a special ingredient featured in most of their salads and they make hummus RIGHT! Best hummus I’ve ever had. I had a tuna melt and fell in love. Their melts are made to almost resemble a pizza, and are easily mistaken for one. All fresh ingredients for a great price. Only downfall? Cash only. But you do get plenty of bang for your buck! Dont skip out on the hummus appetizer.

This place was awesome! My girlfriend and I were in town and looking for lunch but wanted something not greasy. Found this place on Unilocal and was very pleased. Friendly staff, great fresh food, nice patio seating, and inexpensive for the quality of food!
The staff was helpful with the menu, we got a hummus platter that fed 2, a gyro melt and a Santa Fe chicken wrap. All were great!

After several visits here this place is a great find. Pretty greenery wrap around the entrance and there you are in a large patio area with plenty tables and chairs. When you go inside to pick up or take out wow it literally is two small counters, a register and a small sweet case where today this lemon cake was starring me down to buy a piece. Agh I resisted. Not sure I ever can resist again.
They only accept CASH. Keep that in mind. There is an ATM there but today I went to pick up a large order for my office and had my company credit card that’s not a debit card. Luckily I had plenty cash otherwise I would have been quite embarrassed.
Ok let’s see the food, smoothies and juices are quite delightful. The food is prepared fresh with fantastic fresh ingredients. They offer salads, sandwiches, soups. Panini’s, and melts. They have various breads to choose from which are all excellent.
Today I shared a chicken Caesar melt that comes with a Caesar salad. It had diced chicken with melted mozzarella cheese. It was on a pita open face. It was very good.
The staff loved everything they ordered. They are super pleasant, quick and very reasonable prices. 8 people for lunch was $ 82. You can call your order in and they have it ready very quickly,
Excellent fresh food and juices!
Lovely gem! Glad your walking distance.
