    Came to Pilsen specifically for La Luna and it did not disappoint! The chilaquiles were so good and paired perfectly with the drinks. Everything was flavorful, the drinks were great, and the whole vibe made it such a fun brunch spot.

    ENCHILADAS VERDES
    Ahmad O.

    I had a good time at La Luna! It was my first visit even though I've passed this restaurant hundreds of times lol. I kept it simple and got the enchiladas verde and the accurately-hyped Luna potatoes. Everything was amazing - the crunch on those potatoes is unforgettable. Try and go at an off-peak time for the best experience - we were there on a Thursday evening and it was pretty crowded.

    Lovely atmosphere with beautifully colored interior design. Portions were large, especially the appetizer/shared plates. Really impressed at how well all of the meat was cooked. Service was a bit slow but friendly and our food came out at a good pace. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a slightly more elevated but casual Mexican spot in Pilsen!

    Chicken Flautas
    Sydney H.

    La Luna was sooooo good. It was super quick, so it's a good spot for if you want to be in and out. Everything we got was amazing. I loved both the tacos I ordered and the chicken flautas. I was expecting to need food but the two tacos and flautas filled me up. The margs were also great. Tasted super fresh and was a great balance of sweet and sour. Can't wait to go back here!!!!!

    The mussels

    Great place to grab dinner or drink before a Thalia Hall show. It's right across the street and the food and drinks hit the spot. I've been twice and both times I was very happy with my well made mezcal cocktails. This time I focused a little more on the food and my husband and I wanted to try a lot of stuff so here's how it went down. 1. Mezcal Paloma 2. Mata Miel 3. Salsa Flight 4. Pork Belly Taco 5. Al Pastor Taco 6. Sweet Potato 7. Meijillones La Luna 8. Taziki Steak Taco I'll break it down. Drinks are wonderful and beautifully presented. Salsa flight is fine, didn't knock my socks off other than the mango salsa and the chips are a bit denser than I prefer, but that's just my preference. Tacos were mostly wonderful. Liked all the seasonal specials with my favorite being the sweet potato. That was a shocker. Both my husband and I are big carnivores so didn't expect us to both choose it as our favorite. Pork Belly I thought would be my favorite, but it was further down on my rankings. It was a little bland and slightly tough. Loved, loved, loved the homemade pita tortilla on the tzatziki taco. Fun take on a gyro. My least favorite were the mussels and I think the reason partially had to do with fact that I didn't like how dry they were. My dumbass wasn't aware all the sauce was at the bottom with the rice and I probably should have mixed it all up. Guessing that was my rookie mistake, but PSA for the rest of you.

    I had been wanting to try this place but every time I wanted to go, it was packed. Finally made it in! This place has the best fish and steak tacos! Drinks were also amazing. Great ambiance, fun place for just about any occasion. A little pricey but definitely worth it.

    Cucumber mocktail

    La Luna was alright. The guacamole is very fresh, with pomegranates. The quesabirria was hard to pick up so I ended up eating it with a fork and knife. Tacos were good, and they have a good happy hour with $3.75 tacos. The tres leches chocolate was experimental and was decent. The restaurant seemed to cater to a white crowd, so if that's your thing go there. The cocktails were too sour.

    Cute spot in Pilsen! Went with a group of 6 on a Sunday night with a reservation, otherwise we probably wouldn't have been able to get a table. We got the salsa trio and guacamole to start and both were good just over priced. The chips were super fresh! I got 3 tacos for dinner: carne asada, fried fish and al pastor. The carne asada was a little dry unfortunately but the other two were good. Street parking in the area, metered as well as some free side streets.

    Salsa Flight
    Jesse P.

    I always love coming here! My friend and I stopped by on Halloween around 5:30pm without a reservation, and we were seated right away since it wasn't too busy. We ordered the carne asada tacos and the salsa flight, both were delicious! The portions were generous, and they loaded up the tacos with plenty of meat and extra onions just like I asked. Our server was super attentive the entire night, checking in often and keeping our drinks coming. We ordered a few cocktails and shots while watching all the costumes out on the street from our window seat, such a fun Halloween vibe. We ended up staying for about four hours just enjoying the food, drinks, and atmosphere. Highly recommend, amazing food, great service, and good energy every time I visit!

    Margarita And The Cauliflower Tacos
    Steve A.

    Checked out this Mexican restaurant that has a modern touch to authenticity. It may not be quite authentic but it's more like an update to it. La Luna is among the many options in Pilsen. A lot of interesting combinations. The prices may be kind of high which is the only bad thing to be honest. Basic in concept. It's another one of these modern takes on classic Mexican. There's some fancy looking trickery but it all ends up on a plate. Gets crowded. There's hardly ever any room on the inside. A lot of people still willing to overpay for average. It's about $14 for a margarita. This is made with agave, Cointreau, lime, and Milagro tequila. Food has a few vegetarian choices. It's about $5 each for the Cauliflower Tacos. Certainly is small but filling. These come with onions and romesco sauce. Other things on the menu include ceviche. There's lots for those who like seafood. For sure it's one of the popular places in the area. It's closed Mondays. There's meaty options but there's some things for vegetarians.

    Fish, pork belly and al pastor tacos.
    Frank T.

    Six of us came in around 5 to celebrate Birthday. The place was half full so got seated right away. We started with the guac and the elote. Both were good. and the chips were fresh. We started with a pitcher of margaritas....about 5 glasses. They were decent. They refiled the chips. We all had various tacos and the mole chicken. with sides of rice and refried beans. The beans were amazing. Nice a creamy. The fish tacos were a handful. a nice bit of heat and batter fried tilapia. The pork belly for me was the best. A nice portion with really yummy pork belly. I had too much. I had to being my al Pastor taco home.

    Paloma
    Ella W.

    The vibes are amazing. I had the Paloma elote, queso, guacamole and sala flight. So so so good! Our server was super attentive. The only thing I have to say is that you NEED to arrive early to find parking. I definitely was not familiar with the area and drove around for a second! So be warned :)

    Kendra L.

    Went here a while back and the food and drinks is delicious!! Our server octavia was great. Nice little spot, clean and great vibes. My only problem was personally too expensive for such small portions.

I got the cucumber gin cocktail which was the highlight for me! For our food we got the Caesar salad with chicken, the chicken tacos, and the chips and guacamole. You could tell the chips were homemade and were so light and crunchy. I loved that the tacos had bite sized pieces of grilled chicken in them, and they were seasoned so nicely. Overall a nice lunch!

I must admit that I had low expectations because quite frankly, I have not enjoyed Mexican food outside of Mexico or California. However, we were hungry, and it was near where we were staying, so I decided we should check it out, and I am so glad we did! The food was great. Both adults and the VERY picky children in our group all enjoyed our meals. I ordered the green chicken enchiladas and the other adult ordered a chile relleno combo, which I also got to try. Everything was delicious and devoured by all! We were so full but the owner talked us into the chocoflan, and we did not regret trying it. It was soooo good! Speaking of the owner, the service was great. We really enjoyed how he and the rest of the staff were very courteous. It is a small establishment, and it gets a good amount of people, so I assume that there are waits during peak hours. I highly recommend Sabroso! And we plan to return the next time we are in the area.
