This place was chef's kiss . I had my shares of Italian food and trying to find a really good Italian restaurant that serve good quality Italian food is pretty hard to find but I'm so happy that I found this place . I came here the other night to have dinner with my friends and we loved it the food was spectacular and the service was top notch! Always checking up on our table making sure we were really taken care of. Now that's a great Italian hospitality . Our waiter I forgot got his name but he was an amazing waiter making sure we got what we needed and accommodated us when it came to splitting the bill. This place is perfect for a first date or if you want to impress someone you like. The vibes gives off classy and fancy just perfect for dinner with a love one or a group of close friends I will definitely be coming back to try more of what they have to offer ! Thank you Luna Rossa for an amazing experience and excellent meal
Was in town for work. Very nice place. Food was excellent from start to finish. Would definitely go back.
Really nice place and totally Italian decor! Our waiter was even Italian. Great food and great service. I have eaten here before and both times we all loved it. I went here for my Birthday celebration. We all chose different dishes. Ravioli with lobster, pasta with mushrooms, shrimp and cream sauce, pasta with calamari! My pictures of the rest should be obvious. We all loved it! You need to go. It's located in the Tustin Market Place compound. Great job!
Luna Rossa was a place that was pretty decent for an Italian Restaurant, but nothing over the top or insanely remarkable. Ordered two dishes: Capellini con calamari ($33) and Risotto ai Funghi Porcini ($31). Kind of expensive for what it was, but at least the portion sizes were decent and I had enough to take home for an extra meal. Capellini: The biggest (but not major) issue I had with this was that the ratio of sauce to pasta was somewhat lacking. When the dish was served it looked very presentable and the angel hair pasta looked like it was well incorporated into the sauce, but then after mixing it a bit I realized that almost everything immediately not visible under the first layer of sauce was all pasta, making it less incorporated towards the end. Everything else was great though, good portions of calamari, the sauce itself was great, everything tasted fresh and simple but well executed. Risotto: The better of the two dishes in my opinion. Has a lot of mushroom flavor, the rice was not overcooked and mushy, which tends to be a problem with risotto due to the cream and such. I don't do too well with heavy, creamy food so I wasn't able to get through a lot of it but for people who enjoy it and enjoy mushrooms, it definitely delivers as advertised. Restaurant ambiance is nice, they go for a more homestyle decorated restaurant and it's cute/works well. The biggest plus I had was that the walls are not very echoey, so it makes the restaurant not too loud, a usual quip I have with Italian restaurants in general. I could actually talk at a normal voice and hear the people around me at the table, and opened up for more comfortable conversation and a better experience in general. One negative I had was the singular hostess working the front was in charge of handling reservations, putting people on the waitlist, handling calls for takeout, guiding people to their seats, and even giving water to us. I definitely don't blame her, but as a result of having one person do all the guiding work there was a noticeable delay in the whole experience (coming into the restaurant up until the food comes to your table). Overall, I would recommend Luna Rossa as a good spot for casual conversation and a relaxed and comforting dining experience.
I am a FAN!!! Amazing food AND SERVICE! I want to thank my waiter for his patience but can't remember his name. We had a fussy toddler and he was BEYOND patient. Beautiful restaurant and AUTHENTIC Italiano!!! I will be back!
