The bruschetta here is the best I've had in my life. My wife and I come to the North Coast for getaways once or twice a year, and we make reservations here every time. I had the carbonara most recently, it was great. Chocolate cheesecake for dessert. The music selection in the first floor dining area can be fairly eclectic - I actually love it, but if that idea is a turn off for you, ask to be seated on the outside patio or the second floor!

An incredible Italian nestled in the heart of Mendo. We sat outside, on a relatively cold night. Heaters were absolutely perfect, keeping us all warm, live music was a great touch and the service was excellent. We had the Sangiovese, Ragu and Carbonara, all of which were delicious.

Amazing food, gorgeous ambience in the garden and excellent service! Especially loved their pesto sauce! The complementary fresh focaccia with cheese and tomato sauce was a delight!!

Came to Mendocino (and thus the restaurant) for my ten year anniversary. Never been here in all our times visiting, so the wife made a reservation a day in advance, as suggested. We were seated promptly, and the at and ambiance are wonderful. Our waiter was super cool, engaging and sharing stories from Italy. Saint Francis is there as well!The food is exquisite. Caprese, bursts and lasagna were everything I remember from Rome. But in the beautiful confines of Mendocino. Wine list is available, as is root beer!Definitely a place to go for a special occasion. Delightful.Parking: Can be tricky when that area gets busy. Best to walk if possible.

Took my beautiful wife for her birthday to this lovely restaurant and it was definitely a treat. We tried the Tortelli al Funghi Porcini since we usually like trying the most popular dishes from restaurants. It was perfectly balanced with the ravioli, mushroom, and sauce. We also tried the Spaghetti Carbonara which was definitely both of our favorite. It was suggested by our server Alessio as he said it was the "Best in the West" and he was not wrong. The dish was light, the pancetta wasn't overpowering at all, but it still packed an extremely powerful punch full of italian flavor in every bite. Of course, I literally had to lick the plate clean (con permiso!) Added the Cannoli for dessert which was immaculate and a must! We didn't have an opportunity to sit outside or have live musicians which we are sure would've been the cherry on top. Our server was fun and the helper was very attentive. Thanks for the great service Alessio!

Phenomenal and dreamy dining experience! Could not recommend enough and I believe Jenny was our servers name- she made the experience ten times more pleasant with her knowledge on the menu and kindness!

Ate outside despite the cold; every table had its own heater! And the food was worth it!

My Christmas present to myself is a trip to my favorite haunt on the coast. Located in the heart of beautiful Mendocino California, this gem is a must to try when you visit. The owners have brought the best of Italy to Northern California and everyone that enters is treated like family. The staff is very knowledgeable, entertaining and extremely attentive. The atmosphere both inside and outside is second to none with every detail thought of and shared with you. I have tried everything on the menu so you can not go wrong with any of the meals deserts or specials, while their beer and wine list pairs perfectly. I had the Carbonara which was bravissimo… celebrate a holiday meal or special occasion here. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ehat can I say about Luna Trattoria other than it was one of the best Italian restaurants I have ever been to. I had high expectations for this restaurant and even they were exceeded. Though I definitely recommend making a reservation in advance because walking in could bring you to an hour long wait with no guarantees of actually being seated. With our reservation we were able to get seated with no wait whatsoever. The service was amazing and all the waiters had an amazing energy to them as well as the building overall. The feeling of the restaurant as a whole was very welcoming and authentic. As we ordered we didn't even notice how much time had passed until we got our food, but that may just be from the good company. The food was amazing every single dish that we ordered did not disappoint, and the chocolate moose was delightful!!!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to come back

The carbonara might be the best Italian dish I’ve had. The vegetarian lasagna is also fantastic. Go here for dinner if you can.
