Luna Restaurant - Concord, California

Best Italian restaurant we've discovered on an early Sunday afternoon. We've come at a recommendation from a close friend of ours, and I am glad that we're near the area to try. We arrived 30 minutes earlier than their usual opening time, but they were very accommodating and took us in. We had a wonderful evening, and the food was phenomenal. I highly recommend the lamb shanks as well as their mushroom gnocchi for appetizers. But their pastas are very good as well. I highly recommend this place next time you visit concord. They won't disappoint. Shout out to ADAM for being a nice little boy to his momma!

Luna is one of my favorite restaurants for date-night with my hubby. It feels like a mix of fine dining, but cozy and romantic at the same time, especially some nights when they have a live accordian player.

The service is wonderful, staff is friendly (we've had V a couple of times and he always makes us feel welcomed and gives great recommendations), and we love that the owner is often present and greets guests, making you feel very special and shows that he truly loves what he does; I believe it's family owned.

Food is amazing! There hasn't been a dish that we've tried that we didn't love. The Mediterranean mussels are so flavorful and the sauce is addicting. My husband is obsessed with their lobster Ravioli. And I love the chicken parmesan, but tonight opted for a delicious rib eye. You can never go wrong with dessert and drinks either, pictured here is the mango panna cotta - love the banana cream and nutty texture that was added.

Luna is easily one of the best Italian Restaurants in the East Bay. While I gloat about dinner, their lunch menu is just as amazing.

Fantastic restaurant with fantastic hospitality! My boyfriend and I first discovered this restaurant when we moved near the area in 2022 and have been here multiple times ever since! The food is absolutely amazing. The owner, Habib, is very hospitable, kind, and an amazing chef. He continues to go out of his way for his guests to ensure an amazing experience. We experienced his genuine nature first hand when my table had a situation where a guest had unbalanced insulin levels. He offered his support, soda/sugar water and even walked her to her car at the end of our meal. We appreciate him having us and will definitely be back!

Beautiful restaurant close to Todo Santos Plaza in Concord.
Food and appetizers were amazing! The owner and hostess, Habib is an amazing person and extremely welcoming into his restaurant.
We sat at the bar and conversed with the owner while eating appetizers, lunch, and drinks.

Would highly recommend. They have indoor and outdoor seating within walking distance to live outdoor concerts. Great location and safe to park/walk.

I cannot thank Luna Restaurant enough for hosting my family's celebration of life lunch for my grandpa. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The food was delicious, and the service was impeccable. It truly made a difficult day easier, and we felt so cared for. Thank you for helping us honor his memory in such a beautiful way. We will definitely be returning!

I came here first the first time with some friends recently and was very impressed with Luna. The owner is amazing and the service here is done with love. Each dish seems to be thoughtful, with lots of effort in putting together the food as well as time spent preparing. Some of the options are not really my taste but I can appreciate why so many people love this neighborhood gem. Give it a try - I think you’ll be glad you did.

Looking for this place on the map to write this review, I went across quite a handful of “should-of-had-it-there’s.” That was my big birthday dinner. I love Italian food. My pick, so my friends made the reservation. The food was good, but long from memorable. I found the Zinfandel SutterHomely sugary. Due to one of my friends clearing only a few days ago from a positive test, we wisely ate outside ON THE SIDEWALK - how discomforting; I should have picked a place with a patio, but I forgot to check for that detail. I found our waiter a little contrived. This place truly was not what I expected and I am disappointed with myself for not taking better research of where to eat.

Here is a nice restaurant for a romantic dinner.
The staff were polite. I like the atmosphere inside.

We ordered:
🔹️1. Caprese Salad in large portions. It costs $12. This dish was delicious, everything was perfect. Tomatoes, mozzarella, enough balsamic vinaigrette.
🔹️2. Scampi Risotto. It costs $28.
My rate is 4 from 5. I thought my risotto was a little overcooked. Tiger shrimps and day boat scallops were nice. I was worried about tomato-lobster sause, but it was so nicely done. Not too much tomato sause and reach taste of the lobsters.
🔹️3. Dessert
It's an adorable dessert. Beautiful notes of chocolate, sweet sauses, and gelato.

Overall, it was a good place, I would come back to try something else here!
