What happened to this place? It was never gourmet, but the chips were great and the food was decent. Now it's clear they don't make the chips themselves anymore (they used to be warm and crispy, but now they're stale -- you can bend them before they break). It took forever to get our food (two combination plates) and the meat in each of the three items that had it (two enchiladas, one taco) was incorrect, dry and without much flavor. It's too bad, I used to like this place but they're cutting corners and the result is a bad experience. read more

They've lost their Mexican roots. The Chile Relleno is mostly cheese, the carnitas is mostly fat, the rice tastes primarily of garlic and the carne asada has no flavor. The salsa tastes of a can and the tortillas are rubbery. Oh and the vegetables are obviously boiled. But the service is great. At least that's good. read more

Friends and I visited this establishment for happy hour last Tuesday. We have seen the happy hour menu on the website of the restaurant and it appeared attractive. However, when we arrived there, we were informed that the menu on the website was "operative" and we handed another one, substantially less attractive. The restaurant owner came to our table and explained that her website "manager" had forgotten to update the website despite her requests, but then she said that the decision to change the happy hour menu was not hers but somebody else's. This is a classic case of bait and switch and on that alone, I advise everybody to avoid this place. read more

"Luna Loca Mexican" is a nice independent restaurant to dine at in the heart of Danville, but unfortunately their food is less than desirable. Their prices are high for its mediocre Mexican food, and I was still hungry when I left their restaurant. I came here on a Sunday afternoon during the football season, and even though it was during the lunch hour, it was very empty in here; although there were quite a few people at the bar, watching the 49ers game. I actually liked it when it's not crowded in here; but I wasn't impress with their food, nor their prices for its lack of quality & quantity. I really did liked the ambiance of the restaurant, as it's quiet in here and would be fun watching a sports game while you're having a meal. I liked the atmosphere, but unfortunately a "Chevys Fresh Mex" has better Mexican food than "Luna Loca". read more

Food is always good, and the service is fantastic. It is also the best place in the East Bay to play darts. There is a section to the left of the bar with at least 6 steel tip boards, and 2 soft tip boards. They have a couple dart leagues on Thursday nights, both a beginner level and an experienced one. I can't recommend this place enough. read more

Loved the friendly staff and awesome vegetarian menu. The warmth of the place is outstanding, we found it a few days ago and here we are :-) back again in 4 days . Awesome service, friendly and welcoming staff. Loved the margarita .. over the course of two visits to this restaurant we have tried 4 different types of margarita and they were yum! Happy customers. I felt a review was much needed. We will be going back again without a doubt. Thanks guys for the pleasant experience. read more

It's an ok place to eat. Food I ordered a chimichanga. It cost about $15. Chips and salsa is complimentary. And the chips are warm. I don't know if they make it there though. The food is decent but I think a little bit expensive. Environment It has a nice bar area where you can order drinks and liquor. The place has lots of televisions where I could watch March Madness. But it felt like an American Diner than a Mexican restaurant, nothing wrong with that other than I would have liked to order a burger and fries. The only solidly good place about this is that it's great for big groups. But maybe not for your wallet. read more

Just held a surprise 40th birthday party there last Saturday night. Everything was absolutely perfect ! The food, the service, the pitchers of margaritas. We were out on the patio, which was awesome since it's semi-private. There was about 20 of us total - all our meals were hot and brought out timely. Our server, Paulo Z could not have been more accommodating and attentive. Everyone raved about how great everything was and they all want to make it a regular place for us to hang out. read more

Absolutely DISGUSTING display of customer service. Watching bartenders belittle and snap at customers waiting patiently for drinks. Hostesses taking parties before people who had waited a long time. Literally left before my name was even called because I couldn't stand to be there one more second. DO NOT GO HERE. read more

Perfectly average. Not terrible. Not great. Pricey. Service a little lacking but not horrible.

Gentle reader----this is a tale of warning. Take heed. The food at this establishment is served hot and good. Our waiter was attentive and tried to understand our English requests. The sour note--the unfortunate episode was at the end of our evening. Paid with the debit card. It was bright red in color against the black vinyl restaurant billing wallet. The charge was run--receipt taken--patrons left. Customer returned within 10 minutes having gone no where else realizing he/she had left the card. The party checked the floor and seats. Nothing. Asked that napkins be checked and billing wallets. Left name and address with surly fellow at the checkin podium. He said we would not get a call back. The card was shut down as the attitude and lack of concern suggests the card was absconded for attempted nefarious use that night. Pay in cash if you go. We will never return. read more

3.5 stars. Better than it had been in the past, I ordered a simple bean and cheese burrito that funny enough came on a plate with a side of beans and rice. Service was great aside from never getting the salt shaker we needed. Chips don't get my vote, salsas weren't bad but not good either. My family really likes the place so I'm sure we will be back. read more

Love this place! Haven't been since I moved away from my hometown and met up with some friends. Still great Mexican food! Both my husband and I agreed we will come back and get the fajitas again! The loca margarita was delicious. I got chicken fajitas and loved them! My hubby enjoyed his steak fajitas. Wish you could open something closer to where I live! read more

Everything was drenched in bad sauce. Feel ill. Beans, rice and meal floating in an inch of spicy sauce that did not belong in the styrofoam. Sour cream was super warm, should have cooled our tongues but it was broken down, obviously scooped in the am mixed in a box with jalepenos that made it seeped and thin and clotted like bodily fluid. Meal was full of peppers without chicken. Tortillas not even cooked. Old food. Very sad. Very nice restaurant very lazy cooks who let it sit all day on a counter. read more

I do not often write so positive reviews however this one needs to be posted. The quality of the chicken was great, perfectly cooked and the salsas were nice unfortunately that is where the positivity ends. I was trying to eat something healthy, so I ordered the chicken fajita skewers with lettuce and Pico de Gallo on the side. Healthy right? I took the first bite and was instantly hit by salt. I looked more carefully at the plate and there was a brown sauce on the bottom. So I poured it off but the "damage" was done When the waiter walked by, he saw the small plate of sauce and asked if everything was okay. I told him the chicken was good but the salty sauce was unexpected ruined the dish. He literally said, "oh that's soy sauce" and just walked away. No give a fkuc. Now, if I wanted a soy sauce based dish, I would have gone to a Chinese restaurant not a Mexican restaurant. My husband ordered the chicken salad, again, the chicken was nicely cooked but it was just iceberg lettuce, chicken, Pico and shredded bag cheddar. It was probably the most gringo food one could order. Thinking back, the whole menu is pretty Americanized, it is nothing I would call authentic Mexican There are so many good places to eat in the bay area, this is not one I would add to your list of places to go. read more

The bean dip will change your whole damn life. Big serving and topped with chorizo? Amazing. Drinks are great, love the Coyote Margarita. Super burrito is fantastic and the street tacos are excellent as well. The chips and salsa are superb, served warm and fresh and the refills keep on coming. Kinda hard not to spoil your appetite with them, so be warned! Can't wait till this place opens up again. I need to take my boyfriend here. read more

I was invited by a friend for their Cinco De Mayo celebration event. Food was ehh, drinks were okay. Service was nice. There was a rock band playing a bunch of American white songs. Thought the band was going to play something in Spanish or related to Mexican culture, which was unfortunate. Don't think I'd come again, but experience was interesting. read more

Always a fan of Mexican food and Luna Loca did not disappoint. My hubby had both the ceviche and beef enchilada, which he said were delicious. For my entree, I had the shredded chicken soft tacos which were soooooooo good! I'm still dreaming about them a day later. Our service was sweet and our drinks were strong. We loved sitting in the bar and will be back for sure. read more

Food is good, not amazing but very good. They do not have horchata witch is one of my favorite drinks but that's okay. The service could be better. I come here often with my family. We love the rice and beans. The outdoor area is nice. read more

We had a disappointing experience with the host/manager on 7/31. We made a reservation in advance for six adults. He sat us at a booth. When some of the group expressed concerns about us fitting, he mentioned bringing a chair or that we could sit at two separate tables and walked away. When we inquired about the patio, which contained only one full table, he said no to accommodating us, that a large group was expected. No one showed during our long stay there. Both a waiter and another service employee expressed concerns at us fitting at the table. They volunteered to speak to the manager to seat us elsewhere not realizing he was who seated us. They were profusely apologetic when he responded again that we could either split up and or pull up a chair. They did bring us a chair. (Incidentally, most of the restaurant contained empty tables on the opposite side, but he sat all guests there at that time in the same tight corner.) The seating was tight and uncomfortable for the six of us with the chair at the booth's end. We believe this would be true for any group of six adults. The wait staff was the most impressive part of this place. They were friendly and solicitous all night. The food was mediocre to bad. The vegetable fajitas included an odd selection of atypical vegetables for this common dish. The tamales and chicken breast dishes were found to be pretty inedible. The enchiladas was the group's favorite dish. The bathrooms were out of toilet paper. When one of our party requested it get refilled, the same host/"manager" was visibly put out. The place has lots of potential. Again, we appreciated all the wait staff but the host/manager was a true disappointment. read more

I get takeout here a lot. If you're a guacamole fan you must try it here! It's made very fresh and not over salted. For a quick lunch I get the chicken taquitos with the guacamole/chips and that fills me up. No joke, you must try this guacamole!!! read more

Group of us first time here 3 of us ordered the ceviche. one came like someone had eaten it, the other 2 had 3 tiny white fish!!! No shrimp. Manager came over 30 minutes after we requested and said "who's complaining about the ceviche? Then said there is nothing I can do about customers order all day! I would never recommend coming here !!! We won't be back!! Ever read more

This has been a decent spot for Mexican. Recommend the fajitas as they are my go to item here. They really don't do a good Chili Colorado. The peppers here just aren't in the same league as Hatch Chilis read more

What's wrong with you guys! Carne asada plate with a vegetable medley! You run out of refried beans at this place? Are you kidding me! This is the saddest Mexican plate I've ever had. Walk down the street to the other numerous Mexican restaurants in that area to see how it's supposed to be done. I gave you a shot. No mas! read more

I know what a shrimp cocktail is but yet when our waiter brought me a Caeser salad with 4 shrimp he insisted it was a shrimp cocktail.... strange but okay. After we got our check I asked him again that what they served me was not a shrimp cocktail. He finally admitted that he knew it wasn't because he saw in the computer that it was a glass filled with shrimp but yet he did nothing to correct his mistake. The only good thing about dining outdoors here is that nobody was outside dining but yet there were people inside drinking at the bar. No mask enforcement from what I could see. One star for the waiters wearing a mask. Our mistake for dining here. To owner Jake: Ha yes I should read the fine print! But wrong name for a shrimp cocktail that has just romaine lettuce and shrimp. $16.95 is way overpriced for this "cocktail" salad. You pay for the name of the plate not the dish. Even your waiter admitted it wasn't right lol!! read more

Great happy hour deals! $4 craft beer, and endless free chips/salsa. Sports bar with several TV's.

Great restaurant!! Been coming here for years and it just keeps getting better. The lovely ladies behind the bar are great, friendly and always helpful. Nice music and great dollar tacos on Tuesday! I recommend coming!! I'll be back! read more

I have been to this restaurant several times in years past and enjoyed my meal, but I went last night and the quality of the food has decreased drastically. I am not sure what the cause for this is, however it was really a bummer of a meal. I ordered the combo plate to share with a friend. The taquitos were hard..not as in "crunchy"...but as in overcooked, old tortilla. The chicken inside of them was dry and bland. The quesadilla had what probably equated to a "pinch" of cheese, basically was just a folded tortilla. The nachos also had hardly any cheese on them, so basically chips with sour cream and jalapeños. The ceviche was not even edible. The shrimp looked and smelled as if it was old, or perhaps poorly stored, but either way I was not willing to risk it. My husband had the enchilada and he was equally disappointed. The sauce was thin with not enough of it on the enchilada, the rice was dry and the beans were bland. Their margaritas and chips are good and so is their salsa, so maybe stick to this place as a spot to grab a drink but definitely not worth it if you are looking for authentic, or even slightly palatable Mexican food. read more

Good Mexican food. Great friendly service. Amazing margaritas at decent prices. Will come back!

The service was decent although the waiter did not know what was in the burrito as I am allergic to certain ingredients. The food is fine, no complaints however the portions are small for the price. Beans seem to cover 1/3 of the plate but when you go to take a spoonful, it's spread so thin that it would fit into a 1/4 cup...maybe lol. A small size of sour cream is nearly $3 and two small tortillas on the side is about $4. Spent about $60 on dinner for two. We ordered 2 enchilada combo and a burrito with a side of sour cream, tortillas and a vanilla ice cream. read more

Great place to go after a hard day and just relax, eat great food with excellent service and even play a game or two. There is one room off the bar and dinning area for playing darts and video golf while enjoying a cocktail or two while being served free homemade salsas and tortilla chips. We have also ordered full meals that were catered to us while playing. In the middle room there is a large bar where you can enjoy socializing, picking music and or watch the game on one of their large tv's. If you prefer to sit at a table you have your choice of a booth or separate dining area that's a little more quiet. They even offer outdoor dinning if that's your preference. There is something for everyone here and I go every week if that says something. There's something to say about a place where the owner is onsite every time you show up.....You can tell they are dedicated to a great customer experience. read more

Cannot even comment on the food as after ordering and waiting over an hour never could get our dinner. Yeah I understand it's Covid and tough to find help these days and the kitchen is backed up but can you not respond with an order update when asked multiple times? Disappointed customer who used to enjoy the place. read more

The BEST!! Great food great prices great people. Small arcade and darts in back. They other than just Mexican food. Great steak etc.. Raj the owner and son jake are excellent restauranteurs' read more

Ordered 8 entrees, pitchers of margaritas, and appetizers for pick up. Order was correct and well packaged. Margaritas are the real deal, and make sure you get chips and salsa, large bag of chips and both red and green salsas. Excellent food, fresh chips and tasty salsas at a reasonable price. Try it, you will not be disappointed. Best Mexican food in Danville by far. read more

Overpriced, servings are very small and food wasn't good or what one would expect for the prices. I ordered the Carne Asada it was very chewy and dry. No what I expected as a Mexican person who really knows carne asada and how carne asada is served and presented. read more

This used to be one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. Now we felt it was overpriced and mediocre in flavor.

COVID-19 protocols. When we dined inside, we noticed that they don't wipe the menu after each use. Yikes. A man came inside without a mask. As we understand, we take off our mask while eating. A lady walked to the restroom without her mask. So you know they are not enforcing their customers with their mask. read more

Luna Loca is our go-to Neighborhood restaurant. I usually get the Luna Loca Special, which is two soft corn tortillas stuffed with snow crab. It comes smothered in the special sauce and never disappoints. My other favorite is the Seafood Tostada, which is a large flour tortilla shell layered with shredded lettuce, with prawns, black beans and jack and cheddar cheeses. The portions are generous. Some nights we just get chips and salsa to go; their chips are so good! During COVID, they had outdoor seating and we ate on the porch. They also had tents set up conveniently outside so patrons could enjoy their food without fear. read more

Great food, great price, great place to take the family to eat. Great customer service. Wonderful bar and bartenders.

2 words: "STAY AWAY"! Horrible food and service! Waited for more than 1 hour and 20 minutes for the food to come out. It was not even worth the wait. read more
