I got a shrimp taco and a fish taco. Both were good! I was happy with my choices. Although, I did not care for the margarita flight, the margaritas were way too sweet (coming from someone who likes sweet drinks). We also got the salsa flight. It came with 3 types of salsa and none of them were that good if I'm being honest. We thought the mild one tasted like tomato sauce and lacked any flavor. The chips were good though but they're fried so a bit greasy. Our table got a side of queso and that was quickly devoured. But it's queso so.. enough said. Service was great! Just isn't my top choice of places to eat. read more

Stopped in early evening midweek. Sat at the bar. Ordered tacos and a beer. Tacos were tasty and cooked pretty well . Beer was cold! Bartender was a nice guy and pleasant. Service was quick and the order was correct. Nice little place to grab food. I wanted to give 4.5 stars but not an option. The only minor inconvenience was the disarray at the bar area. Could have been wiped down and cleared before I had to ask. read more

Great place to go downtown for dinner. Love the tequila and mezcal selection. The NY strip fajitas are the best!

Great casual restaurant in Grand Rapids. Strongly recommend the salsa flight and tacos. Mix and match. They are really flavorful read more

Overall, pretty good. We got the Happy Hour chips and queso, which is as decent- I could have done without the beans in the queso, personally- but the pico de gallo and chips were yummy. Our daughter had a quesadilla, which was a little better than the usual due to the fact that they toasted the cheese. I had a chicken taco and a steak taco- they were both good, fine, not memorable but satisfying nonetheless. What really stuck out to me were the Mahi fish tacos. They were incredible!!!! Fresh, tasty fish with a spicy aoli and yummy sweet pineapple! If we go back, I will order all fish tacos. They're that good!!! Also need to give an honorable mention to the hibiscus ice tea- it's so good!!!! It tastes like a grown up kool aid. That restaurant was really hot today, so thI y need to get that figured out, but otherwise it was a good experience! read more

Amazing food! Liam was our waiter and also amazing - fast, efficient but not pushy.

Tonight I went to Luna for the first time ever. Many friends have told me that they have great food and a cool atmosphere so I figured I would give it a try. They were not taking reservations but we're going on a "first come first serve" system. (No problem!) I decided to get there extra early in case they were busy. So I got there at 5:45pm and put my name down for 4 people. I was told it was going to be 40 minutes. No biggie. Time passed, and before you know it, it was 6:50pm. I checked with the hostess to get an update on the wait. She checked her list (I saw it as well) and my name was NOT on it. This is the SAME hostess who took my name when I first arrived. She quickly scribbled my name down and said "umm, yeah there's a lot of tables leaving so you'll be next." I said "okay", and continued to wait. 6 other groups of 4 and more were then given tables and I was still waiting. I checked AGAIN, and the hostess said "you're next on the list". I asked "like for real? Because I've been waiting since 5:45pm" (at this point it was 7:30pm. She said "yes! For sure! You're next." I said "okay, thank you", and AGAIN continued to wait. Then, about 5 minutes later, a woman came up to me and said (in a VERY rude and aggressive tone), "I'm the manager, what can I do for you?" I was slightly confused and said, "well I'm waiting for a table". She continued to say, "well unfortunately I just put the kitchen on hold because they're so backed up, so we're not seating anyone until they're caught up. THAT is why we're not seating you." Again, confused, I said, "Oh? Actually, the hostess forgot to put my name down originally which is the real reason why it's taken so long. I've been here since 5:30pm." She responded and said, "the hostesses aren't taking ANY names, actually. It's a first come first serve system." SO confused, I said, "right....then why did they take my name if they're 'not taking names'?" She proceeded to tell me that the kitchen was on hold and there's nothing she could do about it. The ENTIRE time I never once raised my voice or ANYTHING of that regard (that is NOT my style, even when I receive the absolute WORST customer service. It's FOOD for God's sake. I wouldn't yell at someone about food.) She kept challenging me and saying, "well idk why you want me to do! I'm just telling you what's happening." I said, "okay, thank you for telling me." She kept repeating herself saying, "you're not getting a table, the kitchen is on hold. I don't know what to tell you!" Again, I said, "okay. Thanks for letting me know." She then said, "yeah so if you want anyone to yell at, you can yell at me NOT my hostess staff." I was like WHOOOAAAA, excuse me??? I never yelled at anyone. My friends even stepped in and said, "whoa! She's not yelling at you. That's incredibly rude." She said, "yeah well I'm just saying, be mad at me if you wanna be mad." I was in SHOCK. The blatant rudeness and guns-blazing attitude from this "manager" was INCREDIBLY shocking and honestly quite offensive. One of the friends I was with actually owns a restaurant downtown as well and he said, "if I had ANYONE on my staff who spoke to customers like that, they wouldn't have a job." This was an incredibly poor representation of a local business. I will 100% not be returning, and unfortunately can't give you a review of the food because I didn't make it past the dysfunctional and frazzled hostesses and incredibly aggressive "manager". I wish I could give zero stars after that insulting experience. ***in response to the owners "apology" below*** I DID reach out. I left a comment on Luna's Cinco De Mayo post an Instagram, in which was immediately deleted, and I was immediately blocked by Luna. VERY professional. But thanks for the effort. If you don't want people "bashing" your business, then try taking accountability for your staff's actions instead of deflecting and making excuses. The only other person who left a bad review (or as you like to call it "bashing") was another person who was with me and who witnessed the aggressive exchange. Every other restaurant in the city is dealing with the same crisis that Luna is. I understand it's been one heck of a year for restaurants and other small businesses, but that is no excuse for that kind of unprofessional behavior. Thanks for your response.. read more

We had a 30 minute wait on a Saturday night for the outdoor seating. great service. Street tacos were outstanding. We got pork, chicken, shrimp and carne asada. Surprised that pork was the tastiest. All were very good and piping hot. I should've heeded prior reviews and skipped the prickly pear margarita...weak and not flavorful. We were happy with the experience overall read more

Was visiting my sister who's a student at GVSU with her boyfriend who is also a student there too as well. Was hungry while walking around downtown Grand Rapids and we decided to have Mexican food and this was the closest place while we were walking. I have to say my grandma picked this out and she picked out a very good place for sure. We got sat right away and sat outside with amazing waitress named Jenna. The food was amazing ans we just had a wonderful experience. The chips were also amazing due to them being made fresh in bouse every day. We can't wait to be back for sure on future visits to Grand Rapids. read more

Visited Luna for the first time tonight. We sat in the new outside "Covid-19 patio" where they have taken over part of the street to allow for outside Seating. I had chorizo, fish, and sweet potato tacos. All 3 were excellent. The pineapple salsa is pretty sweet which I think went well with the fish. The chorizo had great flavor but was a tad dry. My favorite was the sweet potato black bean taco, which I almost didn't get but am very glad I did. I think every table had the salsa flight and I totally see why. The chips have just the right amount of salt and they have a great crunch to them. My fav of the salsa was the hot but all were good. My wife had the mango margarita which was the crowning piece to put Luna on our short list for favorite date night spots. read more

I would say this is a decent place for Mexican, but by no means the best in the city. The space is nice with a good ambiance, but the service is only average (not overly attentive or friendly, but adequate.) Many of the menu offerings are solid, but I really wasn't blown away by anything in particular. The tacos were ok. The Quesadillas were a bit better. The Otto's Chicken Fajitas were pretty good. Notice that I'm not really gushing about anything here, but since I didn't have any real expectations when I came, it wasn't a huge let-down. If you asked me to compare it to some of the other truly exceptional taquerias in town, it falls a bit flat. The dishes aren't spectacularly flavorful and they don't offset that with really large portions, as some of the other Mexican restaurants do. If this doesn't sound like a ringing endorsement, it's not meant to be - but it's not a bad place either. read more

A friend and I came here randomly after an event downtown. I have been meaning to check this place out for some time now and thought why not now! It was a Tuesday evening around 8pm when we walked in - not crowded but not dead either. My friend and I decided to sit at the bar which was straight ahead from entry. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that even thought the door was to my back, that I did not feel any cold drafts from the doors opening and closing. We were greeted promptly by our server with a warm welcome. He was quick to offer suggestions on the drink menu, but my stomach was leading the way. We each ordered a taco and a tamale. I order a fish taco and a chicken tamale. The tamale was great, moist and great flavor. The fish taco was also great (this natually comes on a flour tortilla - not specified on the menu, so I was glad when I made sure to have both of my tacos on corn tortillas). We also ordered chips and guac to start. The food came pretty quick and before our chips and guac. We needed to remind the staff that we ordered the chips and guac - they jumped right on it. Just to warn you the amount of chips you received is HUGE! Be sure to ask for a doggy bag. Since the chips and guac we late to the party we were not charged for them. Overall the good was great. The fish taco was spicy which I am not a fan of, but I think it was because of the sauce and I will know for next time. Silly me, I should have asked since I was dining in a Mexican inspired restaurant and typically things are on the spicier side! I will come again! I want to explore more of the back room where you can sit. The lighting overhead looked awesome, would love to take a closer look next time. Thanks for the great experience. read more

I seriously love Luna. Kind of obsessed with their margaritas. Go here for sure! I always get the pink margarita but I've had them all and they're all great! I could live on their hot salsa. Nothing compares to the hot salsa. Eat the hot salsa if you love spicy, you can thank me later. My daughter thinks saltine crackers are spicy so she gets the queso but says it still has a kick. Enjoy! read more

I LOVE Luna and come here often. However, the way that they have handled Cinco de Mayo is absolutely horrible. No waitlist, no taking numbers or names. Was told it would be a 45 min wait, for then after 2 hours of waiting in line the hostess came up and said they are no longer seating tables. Absolutely RIDICULOUS. I've never been to a restaurant where they prioritize Togo orders vs the people (ALOT of people) who are waiting outside their restaurant. I truly feel horrible for the staff who have to put up with managers who don't know how to run a place. When asking for the manager she wouldn't even come out to talk with us. I am very disappointed in Luna and the way they have handled everything. read more

This place rocks! Our server Brittany was excellent and the overall experience was great. Luna has a really nice modern atmosphere. It was aesthetically pleasing and clean. The menus are beautifully designed and are easy to read/understand. There is a wide variety of cocktails offered, the lavender whiskey sour is delicious. The salsa flight makes for a great appetizer and I really enjoyed the chorizo tacos I had. I would love to go back and try some of the other entrees as well! My girlfriend and I were both very pleased with our experience here! read more

Great service good shots. Large selection of tequila. Varies from cheaper shots to very expensive ones.

My friends and I went to Luna last night for a girls dinner. Our reservation was at 7, we arrived 5 min before and was immediately seated at our table. We were not greeted for 30 min. I had to grab a craft of water from a wait station because it was taking so long for a server to come to our table. Eventually, we went up to the host stand and mentioned that we've been waiting for a while and have not been helped. She made a comment that Victoria was supposed to be our server, but she asked another employee to take our table. He was overall a good server, our drinks came out quickly and he gave us chips and salsa on the house for our wait. He did forget a few items that we had ordered but was able to take those off our bills. On top of it all, they had turned off the AC and we were all uncomfortably sweating and we were better off sitting outside. This was my first time at Luna and most likely my last. Pretty disappointed in the service and the food. read more

I came here alone last week, sort of on a whim, as I'd heard a lot about it from friends (a lot of mixed reviews, to say the least). It was super busy that evening, so I took a spot at the bar, so I didn't have to wait for a table. I was promptly given drink and food menus, and bartender more or less acted as my waitress, and she was very attentive and helpful, in spite of all the commotion. Even though I don't rate on service, I was super impressed with Luna's service team, as I was acutely observing the on-goings there, since I had no one to talk to. I'd heard and read a lot of positive things about Luna's drinks prior, so I initially ordered the Paloma (a popular Mexican tequila-grapefruit margarita) and it was perfect! So perfect [and reasonably priced] that I ordered a second one to have with my meal. I wasn't extremely hungry, so I just ordered the huitlacoche quesadillas dish. For those who aren't familiar, huitlacoche is the black smut that grows on corn, and is a delicacy in many regions of Mexico. If I remember correctly, it was labelled "Mexican truffle" on their menu, as to sound less off-putting. I've known about huitlacoche for a long time, but I'd never had the opportunity to try it until my visit here, and I was pleasantly surprised. It was very savory and delicious, and was complimented very nicely by their aioli sauce. The pico and guacamole garnishes were very tasty too. I was pretty impressed with Luna, and would definitely recommend trying it out and I recommend trying out their huitlacoche (if you're an adventurous type). And you can't beat their awesome prices! (especially considering how cool and trendy their decor and menu are). Being a new business, I really hope it gets established and can stick around for a while, as I'm excited to see how it changes and develops in the coming months. I will definitely return soon. read more

Save your money. I really wanted to like this place, but will not return. Food is flavorless. We started with chips and guacamole, and elote There is never a time when I don't finish guacamole and elote...but here we barely ate half. Completely flavorless and stuff I could've thrown together at home. We had fish and sweet potato tacos...fish tacos were fine, but nothing to write home about. We won't return, but I hope the revamp their recipes!! read more

After a mediocre first visit we came back a couple months later with some friends. We made reservations and were promptly brought to our table when we came in. The first thing we noticed were magazines and napkins shoved under table legs to stop table from shaking... We started with some cocktails and the chips and guacamole. The drinks were fantastic and we truly enjoyed them. The chips were nice and crispy and not overly salty. The guacamole was fresh and was overall awesome. The waitress was friendly and told us about all of the specials, of which we did get the lamb tacos which were on special. We also ordered the quinoa salad (3 of us). The quinoa salads were fantastic!! Bursting with flavor, light and refreshing. We all loved it. You could get it with your choice of meat, I had the shrimp and it was great. The tacos however were not great. They were just as bad as the first time I came here. No matter what filling you order, the shells are so flavorless that you can't enjoy them. We told the waitress our thoughts just to be nice so she could tell the chef and she took them off of our bill (we did not ask for this, but it was a good touch). We ended up hanging out after paying the bill for another hour or so and in this time we were pretty ignored, not even an offer to refill our drinks or water. Overall better experience than last time, but still a lot to work on. read more

I was very excited to try a new place downtown. As I walked in I look at the tap handles and I was excited because they had some good offerings. My wife and I decided to get some tacos, but both of our fist choices were unavailable as they had ran out. It wasn't that far in to lunch and the place was pretty empty, kinda disappointing. I ended up getting a fish and a chicken taco, while the wife got chicken and yucca taco. The plate presentation looked amazing, they tasted a tad flat though. It game with a side of black beans that were tasty, just kinda soupy. All in all, it wasn't all I hoped for, but not bad. I'll go back in a few months after they get their legs under them. read more

Luna is a solid option if you want a great drink in the buzzing downtown Grand Rapids. There's plenty of seating both at the bar and on the floor. My wife, sister, and I ordered a drink and the guacamole. The chips were amazing but the guacamole just okay. But the drinks may be the best we've had in GR. If you like sweet drinks, order their seasonal Adele. Somehow they put cranberry sauce in it and it was amazing. My sister and wife order their two Old Fashioneds and loved it! read more

I am hoping that the owner of Luna reads this review as my rating of 3 stars is based on poor service given us by the 'manager'. (At least, she claimed to be the manager). The sign on the restaurant said they closed at 9 pm. Four of us were seated right around 8 pm. We ordered 2 flights of the Margaritas to share and placed our dinner orders. The flights were DELICIOUS and we had 3 varieties of the margarita options. Spicy was my favorite! At 8:30 pm we had finished our flights (2 couples each shared a flight) and our meal had not arrived yet . We asked our waitress for another flight round. She replied the bar is closed. I said, 'can you see if the bartender will be agreeable to making us another round as our food has not even arrived yet' (not to mention it was still 1/2 hour before the closing time and there were other occupied tables in the restaurant) Waitress said "the bartender said she's closed so no you can't get another round'. I replied, 'is there a manager as I don't feel that it's right that guests can not get another drink especially when their food has not yet been delivered.' Her reply 'I am the manager'. To that I said, 'Well, I think it would have been courteous for you to give us notice of last call before the bar closed'. She said, 'I guess I could have done that'. Very poor service on her part!!! Our food was very good and I would have given this a 5 star review had the 'manager' been more accommodating under the circumstances. Had it been 8:50 pm or we'd eaten our dinner already I could have cut her and the bar some slack but 8:30 pm and our food had not been served..terrible customer service! Also, I'm sure the bar would have had even more sales from the other tables that were still there. If I owned a restaurant I would never have allowed this to happen. read more

I'll post a picture of the tray full of cold, overly salty shards and crumbs they pass off as freshly-made tortilla chips. These were served with the salsa flight and a side of guacamole as our sharable. When I asked our server, Justin, if they could drop a fresh batch, with no salt, he came back and said sorry they could not. The bright red salsa tasted like Campbell's condensed tomato soup. The guac had way too much lime and zero spice. I couldn't detect any onions and only a few bits of tomato. The tacos were less than average, overpriced for that reason. read more

The staff is very pleasant and efficient too! Also, it's very clean, airy, with spacious seating indoors or outdoors. read more

Good tacos but not great tacos. The quality of food we recieved was very good and it tasted delicious but I was not wowed by it. I ordered a chicken and steak taco and it was a very basic taco for how much it cost. I was hoping to have more of a variety of taco choices but they do have quite the variety of entree choices! I'd highly recommend order the chips, guacamole and salsa, it's delicious and you get a TON of chips. We sat at the bar because of how long the wait was and we had great service at the bar. Very friendly staff and we received our food very quickly. It can be very busy there so naturally it was very loud inside and they do take reservations so keep that in mind if you're going on a Friday or Saturday.

I always try to get here early because it tends to fill up quickly. One reason is that they have a really great happy hour, and it goes until 7pm on most days. I went on Friday and unfortunately they weren't doing happy hour due to the events in GR that night, so that was a bit disappointing. It's reasonably priced--tacos are 2 for $8 or 3 for $10. Their entrees are a bit more expensive but I've never tried them. The chips and guac are delicious and a MUST here. The margaritas are also very good. So is the pozole! And I've tried a variety of tacos and they've all been tasty. I've also been to a wedding in the space upstairs. It's very beautiful and a great space, but there are only two single-stall restrooms. Not ideal for a wedding reception! read more

Good tacos, Margs, and great location, but I can't get over the queso. The queso is like a frothy curdled cottage cheese milk with a very bland non cheese taste. Not like anything I've tried before and not something I want again. The chips are 10/10 but the cheese is a 0/10. Started the meal off on a bad note and no recovery. read more

The seating is quite crammed , and uncomfortable, tables too small for large parties. The noise level made it difficult to communicate at the table.

My wife, son and I just had lunch at Luna today (first time visit). I don't do many reviews, but I couldn't let this great experience go without saying something. I was extremely impressed with the plates we tasted. The three of us shared chicken quesadillas, tacos and tamales. All three meals were wonderful; as my son said, "This is the best lunch I've ever had!" The interiors of the restaurant is also very nice with attractive lighting, interior finishes and furnishings. Thank you Luna for providing a unique experience and delicious menu. We will be back again and again. read more

The place has great food to say the least but that's about it....we've been here multiple times with no complaints except lacking on the service side. We tried to go yesterday and we were highly disappointed. We put our name on the wait list at 5:30 online which said 80-105 minutes. We showed up at 5:45 and checked in where we were told it would be about an 1 1/2 hours. We sat at the bar for two hours. When we went to check back with the hostess she said we were 12 people back....we decided to go to another restaurant to get an appetizer and finally gave up. We got a notice at 9:45 that our table was ready. The time estimate for our wait or other factors completely baffles me. For a business to take up 4 hours with minimal communication on what the real reason or why time was taking longer as we waited for our table is very unprofessional in the service industry. As a note if you don't get a table within an hour of your reservation don't waste your time. Update: I was contacted by Mario about my experience and he said they unknowingly had issues with their reservation system that night. Just a suggestion either accept phone reservations or none at all to mitigate issues like this arising. read more
