Not sure what all the high marks reviewers were eating but my pasta with tomatoes, basil, garlic, and olive oil (pomodoro) was really nothing special. Bland sauce, in part due to tomatoes that were not ripe. Even Olive garden tastes better! Salad was just a plate of iceberg lettuce--no tomatoes or anything. The sauce for their calamari was good (maybe they should have used that for their pasta sauce) but the dish itself was marred by small pieces of squid beak and a few other pieces that looked like plastic.. not a pleasant find. The spumoni was good, but didn't try their tiramisu. Service was fine but they need to improve the food.

Very good. Quite heavy on the garlic, but I love garlic. The atmosphere and service is nice. You have to look for the place, but well worth the search.
4I love this place. Cafe Luna is one of my favorite Italian restaurants. My favorite dishes include fettuccini with sundried tomatos and green onion (served with salmon or chicken), stuffed chicken, eggplant parmesan. So many things to choose from. This is a quaint little place with candles and cloth tablecloths. Delicious bread served with olive oil and balsamic vinegar (they'll bring butter if you prefer). Very friendly and courteous staff.

We have dinner here at least once a week, the specials are awsome. All you can eat pasta for a very responsible price. Environment is very cozy, and the service is prompt.
4Cafe Luna was the neighborhood Italian comfort food joint, at least that was my impression in years past. The decor is antiquated, the lighting (at dinner) is downright too dark, the service is Carl's Jr. quality, the music is that of LA

Pros: Alfredo sauce is very good
Cons: Service, ambience, Mexican background music, wilted lettuce, dark lighting
Cafe Luna has some really good dishes and a lot to choose from. Some are god and some are just average. A lot seem to be average dishes doused with sauce. However, overall, and for the price, the food is decent and there are some very

Pros: Good selection, Decent prices
Cons: Slow, Inattentive Service
We have gone to Cafe Luna at least for the last 5 years. Until about a year ago, we were always extremely pleased with the quality of the food and the friendly, fast service. However, over the last year, we have now gone there twice.

Pros: the inside looks nice, good parking, dinner special price
Cons: the service, and the food quality
we ordered penne with shrimp and scallops, mine with their normal source, and my husband's with marinara source only since he wanted to feed the penne to our one and half year old daughter, who is not allowed to eat shellfish yet by order

Pros: can't think of any
Cons: Terrible service
I just had the most horrible experience at Cafe Luna today. It took them at least 10 min. to take our drink order. Then another 10min to take our food order. 45min after our order was taken, we were still seating there waiting for our

Pros: Good food
Cons: bad service
This restraunt has quite a selection of Italian food. They also have fairly reasonable prices. They are a little high but not over the top. They also deliver with minimum order requirement.
4Cafe Luna has wonderful food, a great wine list, and fabulous service. I have never been disappointed with this great place.

This is the kind of mom & pop community restaurant that is hard to find these days. Good italian food. GREAT friendly service. Large servings, you will most definitely be taking some home, especially since the bread/salad/soup is sooo
