    A true neighborhood gem. Lunetta has become our new go to restaurant. A diverse menu good for vegetarians, pescatarians and carnivores. Excellent friendly waitstaff who know the menu well. The eggplant starter along with the olives and artichokes are delicious. You can never go wrong with the salmon and Caesar salad and ending the meal with the sticky toffee pudding. Highly recommend!

    I think Lunetta has one of the most consistently delicious menus in the area. The service was 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ It is definitely my go-to favorite place in my neighborhood. We go there for brunch and dinner and are ALWAYS pleased with Chef Raphael Lunetta’s cuisine. My most recent visit there included highlights of the salmon and Jidori chicken entrees plus onion rings and the house made potato chips with onion dip were beyond. Definitely recommend finishing your meal with the sticky toffee pudding! Can’t wait to go back.

    My wife, sister and niece had the most incredible meal at Lunetta!! The diverse menu options pleased all four of us and everything was amazing! My wife and I ordered the meatballs and crabcake, my wife is Italian and the meatballs were amazing, I’m from back east and the crabcake was jumbo lump crab with an amazing corn remoulade. My sister and niece ordered the BLT salad and Cesar both were excellent and portions were generous. My wife had the filet and I had the pork chop (pictured) and sister & niece ordered the salmon which they absolutely loved. The pork chop is one of the best I’ve ever had and my wife’s filet was incredible with the ancho chile (smoky) sauce!! I’ve already made another RES because of the crabcake and pork chop & can’t wait to go back!!

    I love Lunetta it’s a little gem in Santa Monica. We had the pork chops and the chicken parmigiana, and I had the trout. And it was all delicious. The cocktails are fun and tasty. We loved the BLT salad that we shared and side dish Brussel sprouts amazing. Desert vanilla bean crème brûlée. It was all amazing. We love our Friday night dinners at Lunetta
