Loved the chef, the food and the ambience. Wish you luck in all you do. I would preferred a later dinner, but because you are so good. The wait ...oh my. A small reservation room would be great and worth extraoney. Your food was delightful. I will be back and staff are great.
What a delightful surprise to find an authentic Italian restaurant tucked away in the backyard of an unassuming house. To reach the restaurant, you have to walk through the side alley gravel path next to the house for quite a distance to find the front door of the restaurant.
Once you are in the restaurant, you will find a warm and inviting place to enjoy your dinner. We ordered Cioppino which is indicative of just how authentic the joint was. To our delight, it was one of the best Cioppino we've ever tasted. It's quite the experience. Can't miss it.
We loved Luna. The food is so amazing and the service is perfect. My wife has been searching for the best Italian since moving west and found it in Fort Bragg.
We come all the way from Sacramento to eat the best Italian dishes here at Luna. Their cappuccinos have froth like ice cream, you can taste the art and love in each pasta that's full of delicious flavors. There's always room for the tiramisu. We've been to Italy and it's so nice to come here and be taken back to Italy. Even the warm welcoming helpful service makes me feel like I'm back in Italy.
Had the best chicken parmesan there last night. It was served with some asparagus and roasted potatoes. I also had a small salad before the meal, which had a homemade honey balsamic dressing. They served warm bread at the table that had some cheese and red sauce on it as well. I will definitely be going back soon! I loved the entire meal start to finish!
Lunas is our fave restaurant on the Mendocino Coast!!!! Never disappoints Massimo and his beaitiful wife are always so amazing and the service is outstanding! We will be in for Valentine's Day again! ����
The food was phenomenal and the walkway back to the restaurant is a cool garden tunnel! Loved everything about this place!
We loved Luna in Fort Bragg, and the new place in Mendocino has the same excellent food! Massimo and Marisa are the best hosts, and we can always count on consistent quality of food and service. My husband is partial to their spaghetti and meatballs, and I love the Sangiovese pasta. Try Luna Trattoria!
Amazing food and Shelly, in particular, was fantastic as server and bartender. Enjoyed my evening immensely and will return someday!
We had the best dinner here. The shrimp linguini was amazing and the spaghetti bolognese had the best flavor. So glad we used Yelp and stopped here. Service was great and it was moderate priced and worth every penny.
My Christmas present to myself is a trip to my favorite haunt on the coast. Located in the heart of beautiful Mendocino California, this gem is a must to try when you visit. The owners have brought the best of Italy to Northern California and everyone that enters is treated like family. The staff is very knowledgeable, entertaining and extremely attentive. The atmosphere both inside and outside is second to none with every detail thought of and shared with you. I have tried everything on the menu so you can not go wrong with any of the meals deserts or specials, while their beer and wine list pairs perfectly. I had the Carbonara which was bravissimo… celebrate a holiday meal or special occasion here. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This was truly one of the greatest dining experiences I’ve ever had. The atmosphere the service and most of all the food was incredible. You will not be disappointed
Had a great dinner a couple of weeks back at this restaurant. It’s pretty packed for my dinner time slot at 5. Lots of diners placing their orders when we arrived.
We had a great minestrone soup and 2 pasta dishes for the night. The soup was surprisingly light, compared to those I had elsewhere. My pasta had prawns and steak, both were juicy and well prepared. The pasta was really tasty!
Do pop by for dinner if you are in town!
Great atmosphere 👌
Just go check it out.i don't want to spoil it, be surprised at the outset.sit outdoors if you can.
Really good food, I'm mean, really good.
Best spaghetti carbonarra I've had,it's not too rich but it does taste like bacon and eggs(sooo good!).I ordered the Linguine alle Vongole (clams) with GLUTEN-FREE linguine.I cleared my plate, it was delicious but not the best G-free pasta but that's rare anyways. Probably my fault because the waitress suggested the fusilli pasta instead(also gluten free).
I will gladly return on another beautiful mendocino evening 🙏
Ehat can I say about Luna Trattoria other than it was one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to. I had high expectations for this restaurant and even they were exceeded. Though I definitely recommend making a reservation in advance because walking in could bring you to an hour long wait with no guarantees of actually being seated. With our reservation we were able to get seated with no wait whatsoever. The service was amazing and all the waiters had an amazing energy to them as well as the building overall. The feeling of the restaurant as a whole was very welcoming and authentic. As we ordered we didn't even notice how much time had passed until we got our food, but that may just be from the good company. The food was amazing every single dish that we ordered did not disappoint, and the chocolate moose was delightful!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to come back
Lovely place with very good food. The service was excellent and for many the food would be 5 star (my personal taste is a little more experimental - this is standard fare Italian food quite well done). My Caesar salad was fresh, though the salmon seemed to be smoked and I did not care for the flavor. The mushroom appetizer was great, the polenta was nothing special, the croquettes were good. The semi freddo was good…
Delicious food at Luna! Started off with fried calamari ... delicious, crispy rings and tentacles lightly breaded and served with lemon wedges and a zippy cocktail sauce. I had the Spaghetti Carbonara which was well sauced, ample pieces of pancetta all through the dish, but it was a little salty. Dessert was Italian Crème Brûlée ... deliciously creamy with a crunchy sugar topping, sliced strawberry and blackberries. To die for! The staff was welcoming and friendly, always there to pour more water or ask if you needed anything. I will come back again.
Amazing Italian food! We always hit Luna when we're in town! Come see for yourself! You won't be disappointed 😍
First time trying eggplant parm (a bit too salty for my taste)
Got seated at the bar at 6pm w/o a reso
An absolutely beautiful place to eat outdoors. Wonderful atmosphere with impeccable service serving well-executed food. I also love the cappuccino they serve here!
