    The services are great, very polite and professional. Due to our diet, we asked to change the menu a bit, and the chef was able to accommodate without additional charges. Told us the price when going over the specials ( very few restaurants do so). The food is very good, Oyster is the best I have had for while. Fish was done just right with lots of flavors. My husband had steak and was very happy with it. We also had three appetizers, they are all very delicious! This is our new favorite restaurant!!

    I have been here like half a dozen times and every time I always get excited to come back. However this time I felt like something was missing and lacking. They raised the price but everything was still the same. The service was still very good but for some reason I felt like it wasn’t as good and as fun as it used to be. The food didn’t taste as amazing, maybe because they were all the same as before so it didn’t surprise me anymore. I felt a bit rushed for each course, maybe because there were not many people at the dinner. Still, the hosts should have found the way to entertain the guests in order to keep up the reputation of the restaurant. Though I and my party were having good time among ourselves, I just thought that it would have been better if things were different. I also thought that they should change the menu more often to keep regular customers coming back and still be able to have fun.

    Had a delicious lunch here last weekend. Service was friendly and prompt and the view is splendid. My husband enjoyed his chicken katsu very much. The lobster tempura roll as are the lobster wantons is extraordinary. I would definitely recommend Luna Asian Bistro.
