Customer Review Summary
Diners most often single out the focaccia, described as fresh from the oven and one reviewer's best bread ever, though another found everything else disappointing. The La Luna Lasagne and a caprese cake with pistachio ice-cream also earn praise, along with friendly staff. The main complaint is uneven mains: a soggy pizza, old chicken in a salad, and a bland pasta.

“We really enjoyed our meal here recently. The service was fast and the waitress was attentive. Our food arrived quickly and was delicious. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting or locals!”
- Sam Brooks
“Decent restaurant for the end of our long day of hiking! The food was ok, we both had pizza and it was tasty but nothing super special. The margherita was great and the one with more things on was quite sloppy. Would recommend! We came here on a Friday night and didn’t need a reservation.”
- Ffion Ellis
“I’ve been to La Luna several times and am always incredibly happy with the food, service and atmosphere. It’s such a cosy, nice place to go with friends, on a date, on your own or with anyone! The food is exceptional. Last time I had the La Luna Lasagne and it’s by far the best lasagne I’ve ever had. I loved being offered parmesan and pepper on top of our food. The wine and limoncello’s also very tasty. The staff are always so lovely and chatty no matter how busy it gets. I’d highly recommend going here.”

“Pasta was very nice but a tad bland. Caprese cake was lovely with pistachio ice-cream. Reasonably priced & non alcoholic beer. Service was very good & all the staff were very friendly and welcoming.”
- Clari Searle
“Delicious focaccia, but everything else pretty terrible - we didn’t finish our dinner and the music was obnoxious dance music.”
