Ah, what a lovely question! We can't see the dark side of the moon from Earth. The moon's rotation is synced with its orbit, meaning we only see one side from our planet. In a way, it's like a happy little dance between Earth and the moon.
The Dark Moon, sometimes call "New Moon" is the phase of the moon where it is between the Earth and the Sun and cannot be seen.

The moon is seen from the Earth...
The moon phase when only the dark side is visible from Earth is called the New Moon. During this phase, the moon is positioned between the Earth and the Sun, causing the illuminated side to face away from us. As a result, the moon appears completely dark and is not visible in the night sky.
As seen from the earth, never.
The Moon Is Seen At Night From Earth because, When The Sky Is Dark, So Is The Atmosphere, And The Moon Is Very Bright Compared To The Black Atmosphere, Same Reason The Earth Is Seen From The Moon. :)

Because you're not looking in the right place. I have often seen the Moon in the daytime; it's not a rare occurrence. ____________________________________________________________ Earth's moon is often visible during the daytime. Seeing the Moon before dark, or even in bright daylight, is an ordinary occurrence.
The moon's phases can be seen from the earth, but not by an observer on the moon. Similarly, the earth's phases can be seen from the moon, but not by an observer on the earth.

Only our moon ("The Moon") can be seen from Earth.
there's not just one time - depending on where you are on Earth, you can see a full moon once every month, at the beginning of each lunar phase.
Half the moon is 'dark' at any one time. Every point on the moon is illuminated for roughly 50% of the time, as the first answer said. So there IS a dark side of the moon :). And it is very dark, so that stars can be seen more clearly than anywhere on earth.
It is not because of sunlight that the Moon can be seen from Earth. It has everything to do with the location of the Earth and Moon, and the properties of reflected light.
