    Make your own Salmon Bowl in APP ONLY
    Sabi M.

    Really appreciate the thoughtful personal service offered by Litzy! With so many dietary restrictions, it was great that she could guide me through what's offered. She even came by the table later to walk me through adding my receipt to their app! Food was good and healthy, no necessary surprises, like the shop across the street that gave me a tummy ache from whatever additive they failed to inform me of when I inquired. I appreciate businesses like Luna that's transparent and courteous. Food didn't take long to receive and everything was fresh. Both chicken skewer and salmon bowl were amply sized. Restaurant had individual booths for seating, clean bathroom that needs a code, and tables were clean. Nice, quick, no fuss meal.

    Excellent! Running out of energy and looking for dinner, Luna Grill in Hillcrest is just 1/2 block from the MTS #10, my chariot:) today. I love restaurants with plenty of salad and side dish varieties: Luna Grill meets or beats most; several main dish salads are also available as a side dish on your plate for a dollar or two more. Today I chose a simple plate-fragrant rice, tossed salad with vinaigrette, gyros and a Koobideh Kebab add-on. I enjoyed everything from the artisan lettuce salad, rice and gyros with pita and tziki, but my favorite was the Koobideh. Koobideh is a fragrant, seasoned ground beef entree rolled into balls and flattened then threaded on a skewer and placed over the fire. Delicious! The location offers on site parking, metered street parking, and as I mentioned is very near the University and 5th Avenue bus (MTS) stop. Customer service is helpful and friendly. Casual interior and patio dining. Food quality is great. Pricing is very good for this area

    This is like less than a quarter of a chicken breast... what kind of portion is this... won't be going back here!

    Great dinner at Luna Grill in Hillcrest this evening! They do a free kids dinner with adult meal if you are a Luna rewards member. My kiddo ended up eating my meal and vice versa. Tiffany was very helpful and aided in giving my son crayons and a flag - he loved it. Nice quick sit down dinner healthier than any other fast food options around!

    A new Mediterranean spot in San Diego? Say less…read more I came here with friends, and it was a first-time visit for all of us. The moment we walked in, the space made an impression. The decor is gorgeous, warm, and stylish, with beautiful blue tones throughout -- which already won me over because blue is my favorite color. Our server, Emily, was fantastic. She was welcoming, attentive, and genuinely added to the experience. Great service can make a good meal better, and she absolutely did that. Now let's talk about the food, because they did not miss. At all. I ordered the salmon, and it was masterfully prepared. Perfect texture, full of flavor, and the sauce was the kind of sauce you keep going back to even after you swear you're done. My friends had the lamb, chicken, and beef plates, and everything at the table looked and tasted like it was made with real care. The salads were crisp and fresh, and the dressings were bright, flavorful, and balanced. And then there was the espresso martini. Honestly? Best I've ever had. No notes. The owners and staff were also genuinely kind and welcoming, which gave the whole experience that extra "we'll definitely be back" feeling. This is officially my new favorite Mediterranean restaurant in San Diego.

    Was excited to try this place and it lived up to the current reviews and expectations!…read more The red pepper hummus was so good. Its smooth, great olive oil in it and the bread was super warm. The lamb adana was a great sandwich. Solid amount of meat, great flavor and a sauce on the side + great, crispy fries! The service was excellent. She was so attentive, friendly and on top of everything. Music was good too in there & there is plenty of seating, including outdoors! Will be back when in SD

The menu was a bit confusing, but I know that I like grilled veggies and Greek salad and then Ike was able to pick my protein that I wanted so that seemed easy enough. The base price with falafel or chicken Shawarma was Close to $16 but since I chose the meat, they added two dollars to my total. It took about 10 minutes for them to assemble my meal, but my veggies were cooked fresh on the stove, which was really nice. They tasted very freshly cooked just as they would as if I had cooked them myself at home. I was there about 1245 on a Monday and there were a few people there and they had some takeout orders so my order took about 10 minutes before I could walk out the door with it. They had a nice condiment bar where you could pick out some yogurt with dill sauce and then they're famous garlic yogurt sauce, as well as a jalapeño sauce And another spicy hot one that I would never try. When I got back to the jury room to eat my meal, I saw that there was a nice quantity of the fresh salad and the grilled vegetables but the meat was piled high! The employees were working efficiently and the place was spotless and orderly.

Everything was cooked well, but I guess although I like pickles, I'm not as big a fan of Mediterranean pickles. The first bite or two were actually good, but subsequent bites the pickle tanginess was overwhelming and just not so pleasant as I finished it. I thought maybe I'll get it without the pickles next time. However, after eating I got an unexpected headache that usually comes from ingestion of MSG. The fries were tasty... maybe there was MSG in those? Not sure. I've honestly had much better phenomenal shawarma in San Joes CA. I have yet to find a great Shawarma here in San Diego. Feel free to recommend.

We were initially aiming for the crispy shawarma however only Mira Mesa and La Mesa does it. So I guess that's next on our list! The wraps were unexpectedly big!

Not really an ambience since there's not much as far as a dining room. There are a couple of cocktail tables where you could eat. After ordering online at 20:20pm, my estimated pick up time was 8:39pm and got the order at 9:03pm. The cashier informed me their chicken is taking a while and added extra time to the wait. It probably would've been faster if they weren't so backed up. I ordered the Wagyu beef and chicken shawarma plate for me and my wife to share. I added 3 falafels and pita bread on top of it. The food was still fresh when I got home 15 mins later. Everything was good and just enough for us two. Also, I'm not sure why there's a range of where they may be located on Yelp since this is just a food truck that seems to be permanent at this location.

    Oh my gosh. This place is so good, I highly recommend checking this place out…read more I had the Moussaka (Lebanese eggplant stew) and I throughly enjoyed it. It was so flavorful and the portions were pretty big. I also got to try the cheese fatayer, I loved the pastry it came it, it was great. This place has great vegetarian and vegan options along with some gluten free options. The menu is marked very well and they make it easy to navigate. The staff were friendly and the food came out fairly quick. The restaurant is on the smaller side. There was seating available for large and smaller parties. From the dinning area, they had a window into the kitchen so it was fun to be able to see the cooks make the food. They also had cute decor that added to the ambiance of the restaurant. There is plenty of parking available in the plaza that it is in.

    The food was actually really good, but the service was terrible…read more The staff seemed condescending and like they didn't want to be there at all. Not attentive, not friendly, just kind of dismissive the whole time. We ordered a bunch of dishes and to be fair, everything we tried tasted great and was flavorful so you can't go wrong with anything on the menu. The cheese knefe was a bit disappointing though. It's supposed to be crispy, but it came out mushy and kind of fell apart. The rose water reduction also made it way too sweet for my taste. Still decent overall, just not what I expected. But honestly, the service alone ruined the experience for me. I wouldn't come back. Food: 8.5/10 Service: 0/10
