Had a lunch meeting recently at Luna South. First off, they did a great job creating an atmosphere that makes it easy to spend time there. It’s very laid back and the art everywhere is fantastic. We sat in one of the booths in the bar atea and it was so perfect. Our server was very attentive and offered recommendations to those who hadn’t eaten there frequently. Then there is the food… nothing short of incredible. We shared the spinach and artichoke dip and I should have stopped there. But of course I didn’t and proceeded to overfill myself with some Dragon Tuna, crispy fries and a side of cosmic dressing. There is nothing like it. The others with me were also hurting after the meal because they simply couldn’t stop eating. Overall, Luna will always be my favorite restaurant and now having another Lake Charles location is going to be so great...
Read moreWe love going to Luna Downtown, so we were really excited to visit their new location, but we were pretty disappointed by the visit.

I’m willing to give Luna South another chance, but it just didn’t live up to the Luna experience we...

My sweet potatoes were cold. Had to send them back and the second serving was burnt. However, the waitress was nice enough to apologize for the food mistakes. Second, the place was freezing ! I had to dine with my cape on and my husband had to eat with his outdoor jacket. Another customer was also in her coat. I asked to crank the ac up but nothing was changed. Good ending. The ying yang cake was good if you like chocolate and cheesecake. Lastly, we had to wait 30 min for our food to come out ( just 2 entrees ), when people who came 15 min after us got their food at the same time as us. Would not...
