Tres Lunas Infused Tequila Bar — Restaurant in Milton

This restaurant has a marvelous atmosphere, they put a lot of love in their decorations. Unfortunately, I was impeded to try the food due to the poor service at the bar and an unlawful house rule. We were having great expectations of this place. Little did we know, we were going to have such a terrible experience. Long story short, I would strongly recommend to visit in 2025, by that time the bar staff should be fully trained and the owner should be less mediocre. Or if you make the brave and mistaken decision of visiting this place to get services and not pictures, just don’t sit at the bar, I cannot guarantee it will be a pleasurable experience. Incidentally, after we left, my partner told me he saw a black big roach... I’m sure is rare, some restaurants have 1 or 2, hope this one just has the one and not a bunch lol, that would be a public health issue. If you’re looking for the sad tea, keep on reading. Bar staff is highly inexperienced and their service doesn’t live up to the ambiance this place has to offer. I just had one of the weirdest worst nights of my life at a restaurant, and the main reason was the lack of training and experience the bar lady had, since her service was rushed and sloppy, and also an illegal rule the restaurant owner forced which consists in asking for physical ID (4th amendment violation). It is my understanding GA Code, Title 3 Chapter 3 obliges the person selling alcohol to request proper identification when the age limit of the buyer is in doubt by the seller. It was a weird case, not unusual, since I don’t look 21. That is to say, proper identification is any government ID, passport, etc including digital identification not excluded by the same code. The physical ID can be required in GA by a law enforcement officer during a traffic stop. Not applicable to this context, which is the reasonable-or in this case- unreasonable doubt of myself being older than 21 arising from the dispenser. It was very weird, as the request came not from the illegitimate rule the house has, but from what it seemed to be retaliation for not purchasing the special of Margarita of the night. I didn’t want Margarita but beer and the lady was pushing the Margarita special. However, unexpectedly and unbecoming, the request for ID came after the rejection of buying the special of the night, for she felt visibly disappointed after we didn’t get the special. When prompted to show a digital Driver’s license, I was told by the bar lady that she could only accept a physical ID, she hadn’t requested any ID before, but was doing it now. On top of that, the restaurant was crowded and she was trying to offer a service she was not trained or prepared for by the manager/owner, in addition to pushing the special of the night. Moreover, her interactions were rushed, unnatural and sadly, retaliatory, the service was out of place and just poor, due to her being stressed for the amount of clients and drinks she had to prepare. The partner I came with, coming from the American culture, was incredibly disappointed with the service. So we left. I was told by the wonderful manager that in Milton there is a strict law or policy to ask for a physical ID, didn’t want to dig into that, since a city law, or a house rule cannot go against a state law or the US Constitution…To wrap it up I stayed to talk to the manager before leaving because feedback is always good, and the manager that night was great and understanding and even offered to serve us herself. However, my partner was too disappointed of the restaurant, once the damaged is done, it cannot be easily reverted. It is truly sad, the experience was screwed by the lack of experience and training of the bar lady that seemed to have the behavior and professionalism of a teenager, along with the ignorance and totalitarianism of the house rule the owners implemented. So sad, since the chips were thin, the salsa great. It definitely takes away the appetite when the service is unprofessional and the business owners rules reflect a supine ignorance...

From the moment I read the menu online, I wanted to like this restaurant. Sadly, the menu items in the restaurant did not reflect the online descriptions - such as the 5 hour Coca-Cola braised carnitas, which does not exist on the real menu or service. We sat at the bar where the staff were friendly and attentive. Questions about the meat options were not well explained. and we found that optional items, such as warm tortillas, were added and charged for without us being asked if we wanted them.

I would like to give credit to the chips - they say they are made in-house and, either way, they are exceptionally good, as is the house salsa. The queso and guacamole were good. I wish we would have stopped ordering there.

Where I have the biggest issue with this restaurant is in the strange combination of Japanese ideas and Mexican ideas, with neither being well executed. The enchiladas Rojas sauce is essentially a poorly executed Italian style tomato sauce over the top of enchiladas. This was the strangest sauce I have ever had on enchiladas and was in no way remotely representative of a Mexican Rojas sauce - it was a jarring, strange, and unpleasant experience. We asked to have these remade and Joy was clearly upset about our request and never returned to provide service to us the entire rest of the meal. The remade enchiladas were good - to be clear - compared to most Mexican restaurants the soy pork was terrific, the chicken was actually tender, succulent, and tasty, but the ground beef was grossly over-salted and over bearing. These were bathed in queso and a green salsa that was supposed to be a salsa verde sauce that failed to deliver.

Given my understanding that the chef is Japanese, I was shocked to find that the rice was full of rock hard "off" pieces of rice and was also grossly over salted and inedible. The tiny side of rice was conceptually good with what appeared to be poblano pieces infused, but again, the rock hard raw or reused dry rice was deeply unpleasant with the extreme salt treatment. The black beans were average and relatively tasteless.

We had a pleasant flight of "taster" margaritas for $40, which was grossly over priced. However, they were good - I strongly recommend the sangria topper.

Despite the fact that across the board the owners do not take criticism well, they are attentive, speedy, pleasant and provide a good level of service.

This restaurant has an identity problem and a consistency problem. The strange combos fail to deliver and the push back on honest criticism is off putting.

I can see where there are better experiences to be had here - I expect the burritos or tacos might be quite good. I think this team have the ability to be excellent, I think they have the "ingredients" to be exceptional, but they are falling short.

For a $200 dinner for two there are vastly better options in the area, and this is not a restaurant we will visit again without...

Ladies and gentlemen, hold on to your taste buds because Tres Luna's is my new favorite restaurant in Alpharetta! They just took us on a flavor-filled journey that blew minds.

Let's start with the star of the show, the birria tacos. Oh my, oh my! These succulent, tender, and perfectly seasoned beauties took our taste buds on a wild ride. The combination of slow-cooked beef, rich broth, and melty cheese wrapped in a warm tortilla was pure bliss. Each bite was an explosion of savory goodness that left us yearning for more.

But wait, there's more! The pork tacos were a force to be reckoned with. Juicy, flavorful, and with just the right amount of smoky char, these tacos had us weak at the knees. The perfectly balanced marinade and the quality of the meat were a match made in taco heaven. Luna's truly knows how to elevate a simple dish into a culinary masterpiece.

No visit to Tres Luna's would be complete without indulging in their heavenly guacamole and queso. The guacamole was a revelation of fresh avocados, zesty lime, and a hint of spice that made our taste buds dance with joy. And the queso? Creamy, cheesy, and downright addictive. It was the perfect companion to the crispy tortilla chips that disappeared faster than we could say "cheese please!"

Now, let's talk about the firebird-infused drink. Brace yourselves for a flavor explosion! This concoction was a symphony of tantalizing flavors that left us in awe. The fiery kick of the infused spirit combined with the refreshing citrus notes created a beverage that was nothing short of extraordinary. It was the perfect accompaniment to our meal, bringing an extra burst of excitement to every bite.

But it's not just the food that makes Luna's exceptional. The vibrant atmosphere, attentive staff, and overall attention to detail make dining here an unforgettable experience. The passion and love that goes into every dish is evident, and it's a testament to the exceptional culinary skills of the chefs at Luna's.

So, if you're ready to embark on a culinary adventure like no other, head straight to Tres Luna's. Get ready to have your taste buds blown away by the birria tacos, pork tacos, guacamole, queso, and...
