    Doors were still closed when we arrived for our 12pm reservation. We didn’t get to choose where we wanted to sit so we were placed right in the middle of the restaurant. We ordered 2 mimosa bottles and they were lukewarm. Overall food was OK nothing exceptional for the price. What we did not like was the service. Hostess was a little rude and did not thank us for our service as we left she just gave us an annoyed look. Waitress never went to check up on us after the 2nd bottle of champagne. We paid with the QR code and she did not thank us for our service either. Would not recommend. There are better places in pilsen.

    My friends and I enjoyed most of the food but the rice and beans were not fresh and were partially cold. For the prices we paid, it was disappointing to see that the ceramic plates we were being served on were chipped and our glass water cups were all dirty.

    My fiancée and I recently tried two incredible dishes. She had the Luna Chilaquiles Verdes con Steak, which featured crispy tortilla chips in a tangy, spicy green sauce, topped with perfectly cooked, tender steak, over-medium eggs, pickled onions, sour cream, queso cotija, and cilantro — a delicious balance of flavors. I had the Entraña Dominguera, a 7oz skirt steak served with salsa dominguera, potatoes, chipotle chimichurri, and eggs any style. The dish was equally satisfying, with a perfectly cooked medium steak, over-medium eggs, and crispy potatoes. Both dishes were flavorful, comforting, and cooked to perfection. Highly recommend!

    The food was better than the drinks, but not very impressive for the price range.

    La Luna has been a preferred dining establishment for the past five years, although service inconsistencies and a lack of staff attentiveness and cordiality have been noted. The exceptional quality of the food has consistently warranted our patronage. Last week, a 7:30 PM Sunday reservation was made via OpenTable, without awareness of the 8:00 PM closing time. The resulting pressure to expedite our order was disappointing, particularly given the unavailability of chicken flautas. This pressure precluded me from ordering. Approximately 20 minutes later, staff commenced clearing putting chairs on top of the tables and turning on the lights. Accepting reservations when insufficient time remains for adequate customer service is not acceptable. Given the substantial bill exceeding $200, this will be our final visit to the restaurant despite prior opportunities afforded.
