My husband and I stopped by on a Wednesday night around 6:30pm for an impromptu date night and were seated quickly even without a reservation. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant has two parts to it and the dinner service area is cute and cozy with a French cafe-like vibe in its decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The crab cake was good- more crab than filler which is how we like it. The shiitake was not overpowering in the pasta and the white wine sauce was nice and light. The ahi crudo was also tart and refreshing. Loved how many fresh vegetables were in each dish. The server and service were fast and attentive. We finished within an hour. read more

Review: The Ultimate Neighborhood Gem in Santa Monica! If you're looking for the perfect "everything" spot in Santa Monica, Lunetta All Day is it. Whether it's a sun-drenched breakfast, a power lunch, or a cozy neighborhood dinner, this place nails the vibe every single time. It manages to be sophisticated and "LA-cool" while still feeling like a warm, welcoming local haunt. Here is why Lunetta All Day is a consistent 5-star experience: The Best Breakfast in Town: The Lemon Ricotta Pancakes are legendary for a reason--fluffy, tangy, and not overly sweet. If you're a savory fan, the Short Rib Hash is rich, tender, and the ultimate comfort food to start your day. The "All Day" Versatility: I love that I can come here for a world-class latte and a pastry in the morning, or a glass of crisp rosé and a Chisaya Burger in the afternoon. The transition between a casual cafe and a refined bistro is seamless. Thoughtful Ingredients: Chef Raphael Lunetta clearly prioritizes seasonal, local ingredients. You can taste the freshness in the salads and the quality in the proteins. Even a simple side of crispy fingerling potatoes feels elevated here. Chic & Airy Atmosphere: [[HIGHLIGHT]]The interior design is stunning--think mid-century modern meets coastal California. With the large windows and open feel, it's one of the best spots on Pico Blvd to soak in that Santa Monica light.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Polished Service: The staff is incredibly professional. They are attentive without being intrusive, and they move with a pace that shows they respect your time, whether you're on a quick lunch break or a leisurely weekend brunch. Pro Tip: [[HIGHLIGHT]]Their outdoor patio is dog-friendly! It's the perfect place to sit with your pup and people-watch while enjoying a Wood-Fired Pizza.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Also, don't sleep on their bakery counter--the cookies are some of the best in the city. Lunetta All Day is the kind of place that makes you want to move into the neighborhood just so you can eat here every morning. A true Santa Monica staple! read more

I needed a place to grab a quick bite to eat before heading to LAX. It was 3:46 PM and there was a limited menu. Girl dinner? YES! For $35 you get a martini- classic your way. Little Gem Caesar- plum tomatoes, croutons, reggiano, white anchovy dressing. And fresh cut Kennebec Fries with chipotle aioli and ketchup. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The patio was so lovely and one of the staff members (I forget his name but he has kids in college) went above and beyond to accommodate me (when he found out that I'm a teacher) with a change in cocktail and A+++ service.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Another staff member was thoughtfully setting up the patio for the dinner rush and mentioned upcoming special events. read more

We only ordered three items, including a latte which was actually pretty good and well worth it, and also ordered the avocado toast which was very good although a little small and the lemon pancakes which were absolutely outstanding. Some of the best pancakes I've had in the while! read more

My friend said, oh I bought you 2 your favorite chocolate croissant from Lunetta. Oh mine, these turned out to be the worst croissant I ever had ( worse than those cheap croissant from Vons )!! They were dried and crispy ( Yes, burned crispy) and the amount of chocolate inside was like non existing!! If there was a zero star, that will be my rating! Common Lunetta, if you are charging that much for a croissant, pls at least make it worth the buck!! read more

Came here at 10 am on a Saturday after picking up some friends from the airport. We had a reservation for 10:30 am but there was almost no guests there yet so we were able to be sat early. I think the main entrance is in the back, facing the parking lot which is a decent size. They have an outdoor seating structure, completely shaded, in the parking lot as well as some tables on their patio. We didn't see much of the inside except for the bathrooms because we chose to sit on the patio which was the perfect option for us. The sun started to get a bit more intense so they opened large blue patio umbrellas to protect us which was very nice. I decided to get the crispy jidori chicken & pancakes ($24) while the rest of the group got the two+two+two, OG breakfast sandwich, and eggs Benedict. They also got 2 coffees and Bloody Mary. Everything was out quickly since we were some of the first guests. The chicken wasn't completely crispy all over because of the marinated peppers but had great flavor. It went well with the syrup and melted butter. Everyone was satisfied with their meals. A lovely brunch spot! I would be interested in seeing their dinner menu sometime as well. Would come again as it's convenient on the way up and down the 405. It is a little pricier for brunch for me personally but the prices make sense for the area. read more

Service was great we were seated promptly. Parking is really easy here. Brunch food was classic American brunch. The Jidori chicken sandwich was great! I also had this delicious green tea with juice I forgot what it was called but super refreshing! [[HIGHLIGHT]]The patio is split up between the back patio and an add on in parking. It's still in a sheltered area with sun protection but caught me a little off guard.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My friends and I enjoyed a refreshing brunch that was inviting and refreshing. The outside back patio is pretty and could be perfect for a sunny day when the weather is right like it was for us. Their chic wooden aesthetic really dresses the space up and staff was very personable and courteous. We were greeted promptly, sat, and even had the umbrellas adjusted for us to avoid too much direct sun. The food and drinks are certainly tasty but do be aware there, menu prices are a bit on the higher end given circumstances and environment. My Bloody Mary came out and was plenty spicy, tomato taste with some fresh green crunches and an olive. It was strong liquor and had been made well for my idea of the perfect starting treat for a brunch with friends. We all had enjoyed our drinks and food. The ingredients on our entrees and apps were certainly fresh, and all delivered amazing breakfast flavors. The meal was filling enough and the atmosphere was perfect. Lunetta will be on my brunch list to consider when I'm back in the area read more

Met up with friends for breakfast. Everything was good. Loved the cheeses on the fromage board but certainly the bread ratio was not there. The lemon pancakes a bit on the dry side.

Beautiful day to enjoy a late lunch... We used to live down the street from this venue before the pandemic... it is a familiar neighborhood to us and a very special one for our family. What a lovely venue with so much outdoor seating... The weather yesterday was a bit chilly, so my pal Jack and I dined inside. I had the chopped vegetable salad with grilled chicken atop of it. The best chopped salad I've ever had, seriously!!! I am a big fan of a chopped salad and have never found one that was better. Jack had the salmon sandwich, and he was blown away by the nuanced spices. He loved that this sandwich was so delicious and different than usual. We had a wonderful repast together. The waitstaff is superb and the manager was so lovely and attentive. To be honest, dining here, even at lunch was a bit pricey. However, they do have an interesting "specials of the day" menu for lunch that you could share with someone. ( a complete meal including dessert that intrigued me). I definitely will return to try. Absolutely a great lunch experience! This lovely restaurant is part of our local westside community and I highly recommend it! Plenty of parking in the back or on the street... read more

What a great meal at Lunetta! A friend & I were here for the first time for brunch. We shared the guacamole & chips. I had a hamburger & the friend had Eggs Benedict. All of the food was really delicious. The guacamole & chips were especially good with various dips. The ambiance is quite lovely with patio dining. The server was quite attentive & responsive. All in all, a really wonderful experience. We will definitely be returning soon. read more

Cute brunch spot! They have inside & outside dinning. The outside dinning is in the parking lot of the location! There is limited parking & I was able to find a spot on the street. I came on a Sunday with no reservations & did not have to wait to be seated for 3 people. Now for the food: Fried Chicken Sandwich 8/10: great sandwich! Was easy to fall apart, however, the toast & salmon were cooked nicely! Crispy Chicken & Pancakes 8.5/10: the chicken was cooked nicely! The pancakes were a perfect size & a nice balance of sweet & savory Wood-Grilled Salmon Sandwich 8/10: the chicken was juicy & crusted nicely! disclaimer the OJ is not fresh & from a jug, but hey it still tasted like OJ! Overall great place to grab brunch with some friends! read more

Came here for lunch w/ 2 friends, and left wondering how much longer LAD will be around. Business seemed to be slow even at peak lunchtime, and when you walked in there was a pervasive fish smell. We got: - potato chips & shallot dip app: Dip is fine, but chips are really weak and break as soon as you try to pick up dip - Chicken sandwich: Looked good, absolutely flavorless - Ahi Nicoise salad: Had a lot going on, and was served across 2 plates, which made for a very confusing moment - Salmon Sandwich: fine It was just a very disappointing meal, and the environment just felt like a slow descent into eventually closing. Service was very friendly, but also felt stressed and short-staffed which led to some mistakes that were rectified quickly. Sadly this just didn't feel like the LAD experience of previous years. read more

Very cute place, they have a private lot and there is also street parking available. The decor is fantastic, love the clean details throughout the place. Awesome customer service. My friend and I share the polenta/meatball appetizer and the gnocchi plate. The polenta was delicious and I am extremely picky when it comes to polenta and gnocchi. The gnocchi was too soft for my personal taste, and my friend agreed on that. For dessert we share the toffee pudding and we had coffee. The desert was very delicious and the coffee was perfect!!!! Looking forward to coming again, perhaps for lunch. There was a band the night we dine, they were good and extremely enjoyable read more

This place is a hidden gem in an unexpecting parking lot next door to a Rite Aid. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The food was EXCEPTIONAL and we didn't even realize there was a whole indoor section with cozy seating and inviting ambiance[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] (we sat outside on the lovely patio). The grilled artichoke and sourdough with truffle butter were the stars of the show, but the hanger steak frites were also incredible and so tender. The head chef/owner personally thanked us and even gave us a little walkthrough of the whole restaurant. We were treated like regulars even though it was our first time there. We can't wait to come back! read more

What a cute place! Three different seating options, a vibrant makeshift parking lot patio, a garden-like outdoor setting adjacent to the restaurant, or the nicely decorated and bright interior. Came here for brunch and our server was very sweet and accommodating. I was impressed with the variety of options on the menu. My friend got the uniquely made smoked salmon omelet. To get both my sweet and savory fix, I had the Two + Two + Two. Lemon ricotta pancakes, two eggs, and two bacon slices. There's a dedicated parking lot for the restaurant and plenty of street parking nearby. read more

Service is great, parking is ample, atmosphere is cute. Food: Shrimp ceviche : this was good, the shrimp was nice and plump, and I like citrus so it was good, but lacked a bit of salt. Salmon eggs Benedict: smoked salmon was good, but a little too salty for me. The egg was cooked perfectly, and the sauce was good too. Nice and creamy. Chilaquiles: again eggs were cooked to perfection. I feel that the sauce lacked a little flavor though. But it was still good and I ate it. I would come back and try the other brunch options/ menu items, as I see the other reviews are really good. But I probably wouldn't get any of the dishes I got today again. read more

This was a great brunch spot to meet up with one of my friends when I was in town visiting! It was a super fun vibe and well decorated. I also really liked how this establishment had an outdoors area for additional seating and to enjoy nicer days. Food was also delicious! I had never seen egg yolks this color of orange before but apparently it's because the product is more natural and healthier for you. Prices were a little steep, but nothing out of reason for the area. Our server, Brian, was also very pleasant and attentive to our needs. I highly recommend this fun yet laid-back spot for Sunday Funday! (Also don't forget to dress up cute and take advantage of their backdrop wall!) read more

Nice Ambiance. The food is good nothing great. The reason for three stars is because of the service. It is slow and, most of the time the server is not listening to my request. I am sure he/she relay the request to the kitchen but, they should check it first before they serve. For example I ordered a well done hamburger and, it came rare! I was hungry and, did not want to sent the food back. They seem to be short on staff. Also the tables are very close to each other. I could not move my seat because someone was behind me! read more

Easily one of the best breakfasts that I have had in Santa Monica. I have pretty much been everywhere so that's really saying something. There's a lot about this place that I really like. First the food quality is great. Our server was extremely polite and very attentive. They have a free giant parking lot in the back, and plenty of seating inside. We sat at the bar because all the dining tables were taken, but it was still a really nice experience. They don't have a very large menu, but they do have a lot of great choices on it. Lunetta At Night shares the same roof, but is next-door. I plan to be back in the near future to try it because their breakfast was that good. I started off with a Cappuccino, and it was terrific. Strong and flavorful just like I like it. I chose the Eggs Benedict for my entrée and honestly really loved it. I got a side of the chipotle aïoli, and it was a great combination with the mini potatoes. I especially liked how the ham is shaved instead of a thicker Virginia type ham. I thought it was great and I would order it again. Overall a great breakfast option in Santa Monica with extremely easy parking. I would recommend to anyone and I plan to be back in the near future. read more

On a whim after yoga, I decided to visit Lunetta All Day after admiring the food for a while. And it did not disappoint! I will say, the parking lot in the back fills up fast and I had to circle around for parking for a long time in order to score a spot, but it was worth it. I took a seat on the lovely patio, which has plenty of shade on a hot day, and ordered the TWO + TWO + TWO (eggs any style, lemon ricotta pancakes, almonds, thick-cut bacon, blueberry butter, pure maple syrup) and it was AMAZING. The lemon ricotta pancakes and the blueberry butter especially. It's a great variety of food for the right price. I also got a really drink as well! I'd love to go back here...if I can get parking! ;) read more

Met a client here for lunch. It gets really busy so definitely make a reservation. I had the Grilled Chopped Salad ($19) and my client had the Caesar with an add-on of salmon ($29). Both salads were good and the portions were very large. Service was fast. We were seated in an area of the parking lot that is covered for outdoor dining. It wasn't loud or uncomfortable. With a portion of the parking lot being taken over for dining, it's not likely that you'll find a spot in what remains of the lot. Street parking is your best bet. read more

Wowwww lunetta 4+4 ateeeee tonight. We came here for our 6 year anniversary. We usually go to fogo de chao in mid city, but we recently got a dog so we were looking for outdoor pet friendly restaurants. Lunetta has an outdoor patio then two astroturf sections for the pups. Tonight there were three big dogs. 2 cane corsos and 1 golden retriever. All of the dogs were quiet and well behaved. There was plenty of space for the dogs to be separated. We ordered the steak for two entree and the calamari. Calamari was a great way to start off our dinner. It was light, crispy, fresh, and not rubbery. It was served with a marinara sauce and black garlic aioli. My partner hates mayo but he scarfed down that aioli! The steak for two came with the steak, Brussel sprouts, onion rings, potato gratin and cognac sauce. The steak with cognac sauce was deep and sexy. The medium rare steak melted in our mouths and was seasoned perfectly (not too salty). The Brussel sprouts were tender and the sauce it was tossed in caramelized on top. The onion rings were gourmet. They didn't taste frozen at all. We've never had fresh, not frozen, onion rings. The batter was light and crisp. It reminded me of a thin beer batter. The potato gratin was rich and creamy. If you're not a cheesy person, I'd probably sub. I devoured them and my partner focused on everything else. Parking was ample. There was plenty of seating. We reserved 6:15PM on a Saturday night and didn't have to wait to be seated. The staff was accommodating and welcoming to the dog families. I really appreciated the space between tables and how the host noticed we were next to be seated when a couple cut in front of us last minute. We will definitely be back! read more
