Luna Lounge at Bella Bru. Same menu with waiter service outdoors. Filthy, stained, sticky concrete, shabby seats and faded, dirty tables. Slap Dash service-had to ask for napkins, and silverware. Ketchup squeeze bottle had dark brown encrusted old ketchup on it. Off brand, watery with zero taste. Shocked at the environment, the sticky cement, the cobwebs--and the lack of cleanliness. So few decent outdoor places and this was a grade A Fail. Split a tuna melt sandwich and fries-greasy, floating in oil "toast": with a minimum of tuna and cheese. Fries were tasty but cold. Obviously there is no consistent management or oversight. What else can I say? Oh yes, expensive too. read more

If you live live or hang your hat in Carmichael, and you're looking for a quality (but not stuffy) place, there's no better place for food and drink than Luna. The food is almost always exemplary, atmosphere (including outside patio) is great, but the treasure here are the bartenders and servers). Been coming here for over ten years and they've always been friendly, accommodating, and it doesn't take long before the bartenders know your name and your drink. If you're looking for something other than a sports bar (though they have 4 screens with games on) and the the corporate bar/restaurant, check this place out. read more

awesome experience!! team is great i highly recommend if your going with a significant other or a group of friends. Alfonso is such a hard working employee and makes sure his customers are high priority!! read more

The good....Great food. Great staff. And Wed night is 1/2 price bottles of wine. Not so good...DOGS. Don't know why but they allow people to bring dogs to the tables. Not only small dogs but we had a large Husky at the table next to us on the patio. So we ignored it barking, we ignored it staring at us when our food came.. but when it shook (as dogs do) and fur flew all over our food I had to ask Why??? The staff was great at getting us a new table and new plates (a re-fire we learned)..but as long as they allow dogs I am not sure we will be back for food. Please note: we love dogs...we have two, but a public restaurant is not the place for them..may be legal but it's stupid. @lunalounge #furinmyfood read more

Yum! Ate here yesterday evening. This is casual with great ambiance. The bar area is great and comfortable with TVs with sports on yet does not feel like a sports bar at all and its not. They have a great beer and wine selection along with cocktails. The food is fantastic and you can order off their Bella Bru Menu. I like the fact that it is connected to and part Bella Bru. The outdoor space is nice but ate inside to avoid the smell of cigarette smoke outside which might have only been one or two people. Do people still seriously smoke in this day and age? And in California, no less. Anyway, we had the Bella Bru nachos and the polenta with meatballs. Yummy starters and really plenty of food to call each an entree meal. Did I say yum! Yes, I did. read more

Food is decent albiet a bit over priced. Service is decent inside and not as good outside. There are 6 people eating now and we are all waiting, and have been waiting , for someone to come out. I know it's shift change and all but the prices here dictate better service. It's probably not the norm but frustrating none the less read more

I've been visiting Luna Lounge for several years now, which always offers great food, tasty cocktails, and a mini-high school reunion for us Rio grads. The recent change of head chef has been an absolute upgrade in the quality of food. And if you still have room for dessert, the pastries and cakes are some of the best in town. As for the late-night bar scene, I've never had a negative experience in my countless visits. The crowd is usually pretty mellow and friendly. Of course, the highlight of Luna is everyone's favorite bartender, Eli. Despite his looks, Eli is actually a real pleasure to be around. It is more common than not for him to know a customer by their name, or at least their drink - and he's always quick to welcome new guests as they walk through the door. I highly recommend Luna for lunch, dinner, or late-night! read more

Luna Lounge for brunch is our favorite weekend meal! Our kids love it and the service is awesome. Our server Jessica is stellar, we are always excited to see her shining smile! Keep up the good work brunch crew! read more

Great place to take the puppies. Server Stephanie will bring them a bowl of water and tell them how cute they are. read more

Omg I love their pasta Bolognese!! It's a big serving ( for me at least). Took half home to reheat the next day...Yummmm... even better!!!

Ok... my review is so past due! We come here a lot for breakfast on weekends and always have friendly, great service with yummy bloody Mary's and food. But today is Valentine's day. No reservation, but still had fabulous service and excellent food! Both had different specials and hubby and I both very impressed with our dinners! Great neighborhood gem! Thank you everyone at Luna! read more

Luna lounge is my favorite neighborhood bar/lounge!!! My favorite part about this place is it serves your every need. There's a friendly bar service, delicious food and tv for entertainment. Eli is great in the bar and serves with exceptional customer service. Every item I have tried on the menu from the kitchen never disappoints. I have also attended a private party upstairs in the banquet room. This is an all around exceptional place, I highly recommend!! read more

Great bar with tons of options Upscale Bar drinks are on the pricy side but still the bartenders do A good Job. Eli was one bartender he was good But was an asshole to my friends and I! We tried there pizza and wine combo which was good I would recommend this lace if your looks For a quick Bite and drink! read more

I absolutely love this place. Brandon, the new head chef is awesome! The pizza and the sliders are delicious, definitely not your average bar food. The bartenders are super friendly and pretty cute :) The decor is very comfortable and a little swanky. It's a good escape from the normal sac bar. Get off the Internet and go to Luna! You won't be disappointed! read more

Disappointing -I was really hoping for a bit more service and care for the cost. I had a group of girlfriends who were going to Luna one night and I could not join them so I called in to order them a round of drinks on me. I realize this is a little out of the ordinary, but not out of the realm of reality. I ordered 3 drinks and for my friends and added a generous tip. I was VERY clear and they repeated my order back to me correctly. Once my friends got there the people at Luna lounge only brought them 2 drinks and because my friends were informed there would be three drinks they questioned it and the Bartender assured them I only ordered two drinks. Not a huge deal in the scope of life, but disappointing. read more

I don't get out much at night, because I have two kids. I've been to this place a couple of times, though, and I like it! I really can't stand those clubs and bars where there is a $1 cocktails for an hour. You know the kind I mean? All the young kids with no money are rushing up to get those watered down drinks. Or the neighborhood bars that are a hole in the wall, with the old lady behind the bar that is super grouchy and slow. I read what people wrote about cougars here, but I don't see many cougars, unless I'm just too old to know. Oh no, maybe I'm a cougar! I like that the food is from the Bella Bru kitchen, because their food rocks. Two thumbs up for this place. Great food, great service, and great drinks! read more

I just went to Luna Lounge for their wine pairing. This was the second one and they do these the 1st Monday of every month. Where do I even start! The food was unreal. I honestly didn't feel like I was in Sacramento. We had lamb, sushi, halibut, cheeses, strawberey pound cake, the list goes on....and there was a wine pairing with each dish! Holey Moley amazing. They have new head chef there and let me tell you if you haven't ate there you need to go NOW!!!!! I've also been there on just the regular nights as well and the servers and bartenders are great. I've never had a bad experience there. read more

Love this place! My only wish is that they offered more meatless options :) Then I'd eat here on the reg!

I love this bar for the experience: the food, drinks, staff and the people it attracts. My favorite lounge to visit when I am visiting my hometown. read more

This place is bad ass. Great cocktails and wine by the glass list. Even better apps. Try the grilled artichoke or steak sliders. Very good use of the space they have and top notch service. read more

My brother, roommate and myself ran in on a Sunday night just for one drink. Well...four drinks later we were in last place for trivia night. It was a blast and we all learned a few things we didn't know the answer to before that night. I had the tuna melt, which was really good and the fries were even better. I will be a repeat customer, whether they want to be or not!! read more

Who's doesn't enjoy this little place. Eli the bartender kicks butt! The food always amazing. Dim lights, nice decor and mellow place to hang out! read more

Came here to watch the National Championship and grab a bite. Was able to land a good spot at the bar, but it obviously was busy and service was a little slow,(they should have staffed up) but the bartender was totally cool and made up for it. I had a great Salmon salad. I will be back as I am often in the area on business. read more

This is a great place for a solid drink in a comfortable environment. The riff raff will not slow you down coming to party here. The only reason that this place does not receive 5 stars is because the regular drinks that are a bit weak are 6 bucks. They should be 4.50 or 5. read more

Food is excellent. I love having dinner and drinks in this place. It gets awfully crowded in here on Friday and Saturday nights. Drinks are great, strong and made correctly. The bartending is outstanding, conversation and service-wise. Eli, the bartender on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday is a hit! You can't miss with this guy. If you don't have a good time with this guy, you shouldn't be out at a bar because you obviously suck. Higher end patrons make for a nice environment, a little on the douche side but still chill. NOT a dive bar. read more

I was attacked here by the female owner last month. The incident occurred at the night time services. After paying the bill, and waiting for my boyfriend to use the restroom I had accidentally crossed over into the wrong part of the bar. There was no signage to speak of indicating the event. The owner ran out screaming at me that it was a private party, and accused me of trying to steal food after we had just paid a $50 dinner bill, and we are regular customers, (usually spending about $150-200 a month here alone), and as I turned away to leave the event area, which was open and directly next to the bathroom waiting area, she retaliated at my unaffected response of "sorry," as she ran up to me and twisted my arm in several directions in an attempt to break it, resulting in bruising and scratches through 2 layers of wool coating and blouse. I notified the police and they sincerely attempted investigation, however, I was misinformed about security cameras or they were taken down following the incident. I cannot recommend this bar. However, we were friends of the bartenders who worked here. This establishment does not respect its customers nor the generous amounts of money my significant other and I spent there. I was told it was most likely age discrimination (absurd since I will soon be 30), although moving here from San Francisco and being of visibly ethnic heritage I can say it felt racially motivated. I would like to echo the reviewer, Analisa S. who is also from San Francisco who said do not even wear ("an expensive") coat and jeans because apparently that is like putting a target on your back. I am a modest working designer with a label-loving wardrobe and this is not necessarily where I'd like to embarrassingly want to put on a flashy dress on a cold night. The bar is literally in our backyard which is why we frequented prior to this unfortunate discovery. I should also add, this isn't the first incident of discrimination I've seen here either. I saw an African-American customer get kicked out after a white male tipped his drink only 2 weeks prior. Speak with your money. In result, I tried hard to stay calm, I had pulled her arm away from my body, and I lectured the owner that it is completely inappropriate what she did, while my boyfriend returned bewildered at what the heck just happened... but honestly this lady is not fit to run a business and I hope she never misses another dose of her crazy pills. Having class is having gratitude for the customers which provide for your livelihood. Attacking loyal customers is so out of line...shocking, disrespectful, and simply monstrous. Logically speaking my significant other and I were robbed of our money that night, and then some. Beyond offensive and all levels of shock. Would give 0 stars if allowed. As many awful experiences have been reported on Yelp, not many establishment owners can boast they've actually went full-on mongering psycho and --attacked-- good customers. This woman does not deserve your patronage. read more

Not too shabby for a sleepy suburb such as Carmichael. The food IS good here. The drinks are good too. Although, could use a change on the wine menu...it's been the same since I've been going there (3+ years). Bartenders are awesome. I think the best nights to go are Thursday and Friday. No live music, just a selection or playlist of the bartenders choosing - mostly 80s rock and variations. Starting at 9ish, you'll see one spectrum of the clientele, which is mostly from the neighborhood and the later & longer you stay, you'll see a completely different demographic. The Sunday Trivia nights are a lot of fun! Wish it started earlier though and a good place during the winter to watch football games! read more

What Luna lounge is this. The one I go too doesn't have belly dancers. The room doesn't look like this

After having breakfast and lunch at Bella Bru for years and wondering about the Luna Lounge, I finally visited recently and found it to be a decent experience. A group of us rolled in for happy hour and stayed for trivia night. We had chicken wings, nachos and a plate of mussels, and had desserts later. All were ok, although the mussels were served at room temperature. Several Moscow Mules were consumed in trademark copper-colored metal mugs and were a hit. read more

The food is presented nicely The salad. dressings are homemade and refreshing. The steak is very tasty. Some of my favorite breads are from Luna Lounge. .For. Quieter conversations, the elevated seating is nice and comfortable.The food is quite good. One disappointed walnut/a salad because of lack of date and wnuts were not candied. Huge disappointment! Its' why Icom here for my favorite salad. Ill be back to try the salad one more time. Keep up the good work. read more

Great happy hour! 2-6 everyday! My husband and I go here a couple times a week. We always start our evening out at Luna Lounge and then go from there. I also meet my girlfriends here a lot. The bartender, Eli, is great! He knows us by name and drink. The atmosphere is hip, dim, relaxed, and fun! Their food is decent. Can be overpriced, but usually good. Their pizzas are tasty. My husband loves their burger. The calamari is a good appetizer. Carmichael was in need of a great bar like this. read more

This is definitely an upscale hangout in Carmichael. I've been here on many occasions but never had a chance to sample their food, until Tuesday night. They have a great special that includes a large delicious gourmet pizza and a bottle of wine for $25! The pizza had a crispy thin crust with fresh mozzarella, bacon, caramelized onion and arugula. Amazing! This will definitely be a Tuesday ritual for me! The drinks are great and the wine list offers a great selection. There are also large TVs for viewing sporting events, good music and a wide selection of seating. My only negative thought is that it tends to attract an older crowd... but after a few drinks it always makes for interesting conversation! read more

Attended a party here upstairs. They had a nice set up of mimosas and champagne as we all arrived. As we sat and mingled they slowly brought our catered lunch. It was absolutely delicious! We had a cheese and meat board, fruit salad, chicken and brie sliders, and korean pork sliders. All the flavors were on point! Now I'm excited to come and try their regular menu. read more

Great food, service, and little place to watch football!

I love the outdoor patio and the ambiance. Super relaxing and a cool spot to have a drink with my sister :)

The two stars is just for happy hour. I love Bella Bru. However, a group of friends and I frequent Luna Lounge for the trivia night on Sundays (Shoutout to Christina, the best host!) However, recently the happy hour menu changed DRAMATICALLY. Much more expensive and far fewer options. It went from being one of the best happy hours in town to just "MEH" - Why the drastic changes, Bell Bru? read more

This was a nice place...,plasma tv for sport watching, booths that are comfy, nice bar...how come I have never been here! Really attentive staff...the Steak Sliders were perfect and I think the ambiance is just right for a Sat night casual cocktail w/a friend..we were able to catch up and have a good convo here. Not to packed when I was there that night but folks kept coming past the 10' O Clock hour...hmm...we had to leave shortly after but overall my quick hour stay there was nice and planning to go back especially for one of those Martini's they were making! read more

Short pours, tickets prices that don't match the menu, and servers that stink of cigarettes. All that's missing is the stripper pole.

After, "one of those long days at work".... My neighbor and I agree to hit up the Luna for some cocktails & good eats. Never to disappoint, Eli was spot on his A game. If you're looking for a terrific burger, look no further.... Add on; bacon & avocado.... It's so worth the extra 5 miles you have to run!!! :) read more

One of the best burgers I have had in quite sometime , staff was on point in every aspect . Not to prices for great upscale service
