Reviews of Luna Bar and Restaurant

A.

Great view, good service but disappointing food. I ordered big breakfast and it was not big comparedto other restaurants and not presentable. The taste were standard and the bacon was too salty. I also ordered smoked salmon and you can see in my picture how it looks. The management are welcome to improve and I can change my review if improved.

L.

Excellent service 👏 Great staff and atmosphere. Loved the food. Will go there again.

A.

Lovely location and great view of Dunedin though parking is a bit of a pain. We ordered three mains and three desserts. While every dish was well portioned and flavoured I didn't think it was anything spectacular. The food was solid and safe. A good place for a family meal or a date over looking Dunedin.

K.

The staff were brilliant, friendly and very accommodating. 10 out of 10 for the service, whoever owns the restaurant needs to give them a pay raise. Food was delicious, the best dairy free risotto I have ever had.....ever. this place definitely deserves a 5 star rating ☺️

L.

Good service and nice steak, perfectly cook.

G.

The restaurant was quite busy for a Sunday night and was rather noisy as a result. Once one group left it ended up being much quieter. Parking close to the restaurant is almost non-existent so expect to walk a couple of hundred metres to get to it. The meal was absolutely amazing. Looking at some of the dishes that went out to other tablets showed that they were reasonably large to justify the prices. I chose the butcher's meal and this was a delicious duck. The view across the city and harbour is wonderful and is likely part of the reason for the busy night.

D.

Great atmosphere and beautiful meal. Our party booked out the top floor and the view just added to the whole experience. Would definitely recommend to others.

A.

I had a wonderful extended lunch here. First, the views here are possibly the best in Dunedin, with an outlook over the city, the harbour, the peninsula, and the Pacific ocean on the coast. Second, the food and coffee was great. I had eggs benedict with bacon, and a few coffees, and later a dessert of apple and berry crumble. The staff were very helpful too, accommodating my desire to have a quiet spot to read a book as well as eating of course. I will definitely be coming back here.

M.

I was there today with my family. We were upstairs with an amazing view of Dunedin and the harbor. The service from the young lady was excellent. All the food was brilliant and we all enjoyed it. Thank you very much Luna, we will be back.

D.

Such a great venue. Dunedin's best view and great for lunch/dinner or a lazy Friday night drink. Highly recommended.

B.

Extensive range of gluten free options, amazing location with stunning, uninterrupted views over the city. The food was delicious, the staff were friendly and accommodating. What’s more the food was well priced. We would recommend this restaurant.

H.

Great view of the city, delicious food! For dinner make sure you book ahead. It took quite a while to get our order but we were catching up with an old friend and were not under any time pressure so we didn't mind. The fish (sole) was amazing. The ice cream was just OK, expected a bit more. Overall great experience!

R.

Lovely morning, sunny spot upstairs with a beautiful harbour view. Coffee was good, good choice of seating, nice clean tables and relaxed environment

B.

Delicious food. Good service. The choices of both food and wine are limited but in my opinion this means they can do a few things well. The bread-board starters was very tasty, with 3 dips (although it’s hard to ‘dip’ bread in nuts & seeds). Main courses of merino lamb and chicken filo were good although I felt the feta cheese overpowered the subtle flavours of the lamb. (I asked the front-of-house to pass my comment to the chef). Prices seemed very reasonably for the quality.

M.

My fav was the house baked bread with dukkah and basil pesto, so delicious. And my main course was the vegan option - Falafel platter with turmeric couscous, hummus, absolutely loved it.

H.

Met a group of friends there for lunch. Great service and food. Would definitely go there again

Y.

The food and service is excellent. I have been searching for the perfect battered fish meal for a while now and believe I have found it at last 😋

M.

We were the last booking time(on a Tuesday night)at 8:30pm. We were a little late but that wasn't a problem for the staff. The Pate was excellent and the Garlic bread with aoili was very good. I enjoyed the Duck leg. Peter had the pulled pork burger which was fine. Views were fantastic looking out over Dunedin city from the top of the first set of hills above the town. Will be back.

J.

Loved my meal of duck. The view is amazing. Will definitely be back. Great hospitality. 👍

M.

Excellent food and great views of the city.

l.

Great food. Pleasant service. First time dining here at night. Caters for a large group. Nice ambience due to large windows providing lovely city view. service a little slow only due to business of restaurant. Would recommend, and dine here again .

J.

Service OK, meals great, deserts not my favourite

J.

Good food, good staff, beautiful view. Price is for the view. Didn't had the chance to take the full view photo because the window seat was taken.

R.

We had the most delicous family lunch here today. We were lucky enough to have the room upstairs to ourselves, what a beautiful view over Dunedin it was today. The service was brilliant and everyone enjoyed their meals. Thank you

L.

Great food and nice gas fire on a cold day. I had a chicken in filo wrap with tasty potatoes and a creamy sauce with a plum sauce as well. The orange juice was good too. The staff were good but to get a five they need to come across a bit friendlier.

P.

Popped in for a late dinner. The manager had just closed the kitchen but managed to hold the chefs and cook me an amazing duck confit. Enjoyed with a nice glass of red. Great friendly service and great food.

R.

Love the view by the window, excellent service. Breakfast bagel 3/5 Fish and chips 3/5

D.

Excellent restraunt overlooking the city with fantastic views. Food was good, but atmosphere was lacking on the last visit being places upstairs with one other table on the last visit - with no staff upstairs 50% of the time it did make for a weird situation. All in all always a good meal however, would recommend.

R.

Lovely food, fantastic staff and unbeatable views! Your gonna it!

D.

Very delicious snacks and great price. Highly recommended.

L.

Fast service and delicious food BUT vaccine passport NOT ASKED FOR.

S.

Best meal I have had in a long time in Dunedin. Every course was perfect. So utterly delicious and the girls working were so charming and polite. Great price for everything. My new favourite 😍

S.

excelent place, nice staff and very good menu for choose

F.

Excellent food and great view from the harbour and city. I recommend if you want to have a nice dinner or just a beer with friends.

R.

10 of us had dinner upstairs at Luna. Dunedin put on an evening of snow. The food was great and we even felt inclined to tip the waiter. There was a good view of the city from Roslyn.

J.

Good food and good view of Dunedin town from the restaurant. Better to reserve in advance to have the best sits nearby the windows to enjoy good view of Dunedin town.

L.

Amazing views. Amazing food. Amazing service.

H.

Spent lunch here for labour day by myself. It's in the perfect spot if you like a nice view on a sweet day. PS. Pork ribs are amazing 😁

C.

Lovely food and location. The service left a slight sour note as our server interrupted an import family announcement/conversation and just started talking over us. I am reasonably sure that this is probably an isolated incident and I would still recommends trying them out.

L.

A Fantastic meal. Had the lamb and could not fault it. Staff were friendly and there is a beautiful view from the restaurant. Only down side is the lack of available parking as most if it is resident parking.

L.

A while since I have been here...beautiful meal..really enjoyed it..so did those with me...great service from the girls...nothing was a bother to them...

A.

We ordered Eggs Benedict and Thai salad. Food was good and views are stunning from the restaurant.

C.

Good spot, few more beers I'd splash out another star

R.

Good venue for a meeting. Lovely finger food snacks

Y.

Great restaurant with fantastic view. We had tapas and drinks in the afternoon. So chill and friendly.

B.

It was really loud and I would have loved a view of the sea. The steak was cooked well but the potatoes were really average. Desert was ok and the service was good.

C.

Great service & my Thai beef salad was nice, but they could do with dialling back the peanuts a little - they overpowered the main dish. The view is fantastic

S.

Lovely meal,keep up the good work.

r.

Stunning view. Friendly staff. Always busy.

J.

Wonderful views of Dunedin. Great service and meal excellent. Family group celebrating a birthday. Would recomend

K.

Great views over Dunedin CBD and campus areas harbours and hill suburbs beyond. Modern clean contemporary restaurant, fresh tasty food, good service not OTT. Nothing extraordinary but popular menu choices

D.

Has to give these guys 5 stars. We found it by accident and we're welcomed by smiling staff in a full bar. The beer choice was perfect for my taste and I can recommend the 1812. The first thing we saw were people eating plates of fantastic looking pork ribs and we could not resist trying some. They definitely did not disappoint. The view is stunning and it was a great experience.

M.

Good food, nice staff,Great views and staff.

F.

Great service, fantastic food, great views. Very relaxing place. Recommend to any one. Prices are great as well. Great selection.With one exception, this was an excellent meal. Everything off the menu (e.g. seafood chowder, duck leg) was excellent. Service was friendly and efficient. View out over the city was great.

g.

classic fish and chips from a really great menu choice

C.

Stunning views and layout. Simple, elegant and classy. It's a good place for a quick bite, snack, or just a casual meet up. Lunches I've heard are fairly decent, though I didn't get to try them and just had some fries on my visit. Great attentive staff too!

f.

Their ribeye is excellent 👌🏾

J.

Great Service from the staff! Entrees took a bit long to get there, but I had the Cheesy Garlic Breads as an entree and a Ribeye steak for mains! Beautiful presentation perfectly cooked steak, and the Red Wine Jus with the steak was delicious! Definitely be back again!

G.

The staff were very helpful too, accommodating my desire to have a quiet spot to read a book as well as eating of course.Extensive range of gluten free options, amazing location with stunning, uninterrupted views over the city. The food was delicious, the staff were friendly and accommodating

K.

Back second time the Lamb was disappointing unfortunately quite a bit grizzle and a bit too rare, however last time was perfect. Service was excellent and they responded positively to the dip in meal quality. It won’t put me off going back as the Service top notch! View just lovely. 👍🏻

J.

Went in for Brunch with my friend. It was lovely and warm on a cold winters day. I had the Eggs Benedict with bacon, and it was perfect. My friend had the Full breakfast and that was perfect too. Coffee was really nice too. I will be going back in the evening sometime soon with my partner to see what the night time menu is like. Watch this space. 😉

K.

Bar person could be more friendly but otherwise an excellent place for a casual drink. Will be back to try to food.

S.

Lovely food and service. No tables inside as we couldn't get through to book on the day but pleasant to sit outside with the dog for pre Xmas meal

J.

Another of our all time favourites in Dunedin. We've been here since 2017. Simon and his crew are awesome Did i mention the views? Breathtakingly beautiful

K.

Food was amazing but wait staff need to learn to smile and be friendly!!

L.

The food was amazing. I had sole fillet. Everyone enjoyed their food. Only one waiter and she worked her butt off. Need more staff when restaurant is full. Thanks for a good night.

Y.

I ordered the Thai beef salad as a main, it was delicious. We were seated by the window which had a fantastic view overlooking the town centre and harbour

s.

Great food, great service and fantastic view over Dunedin.

C.

Decided to go for a drink after work, thought of Luna. Staff are super friendly and efficient. Sat at a table with views over the city. Amazing.....

B.

Great for a coffee but an Emmersons Pilsner was not cheap at $12 00 per pint. I usually pay $9 00 but in saying that I don't usually have a view right down Stuart Street; a nice venue with lots of windows and therefore lovely in the sun plus the Harbour view

C.

Great site -views are fantastic. OK service. Main course is large but my chicken was overcooked. My partner thought the pork was a bit weird served with rice. Wine is very expensive!!!

M.

Awesome place and fantastic views

N.

Lovely place, great service and amazing staff. Wil come back again and again.

Z.

Great for drinks, the view is gorgeous, but I wouldn't eat here again. Waited over an hour for the wrong meals, which we accepted and ate. They were average. Staff were friendly.

I.

Beautiful lamb and brulee.

K.

Nice atmosphere, good range of drinks and food whether there for a meal or bar snacks. Would recommend. Great view of the city from day to night.

E.

Window tables have great views over Dunedin, fries and wedges are very yummy but didnt try a main so am not too sure (I bet they would be good though). Would reccommend for a romantic dinner as thats the kind of vibe I got when there

S.

The first time we went here there was delightful young man ( with a deep resonant voice) who made our experience friendly and professional. The second time we went we were rudely ignored by the female staff member in favour of people who walked in after us and we left upset and dissapointed.

a.

Lovely meal and atmosphere 🙂

J.

We had an hour for dinner, wanted real food and speights. Found both, with awesome menu, amazing staff, outstanding views and even my favourite Mt Difficulty Pinot Noir. Can't wait to go back - Thank you for an outstanding meal. Highly recommend.

W.

Great food and service, but very noisy. Not a place to go if you want to relax.

Had a great meal with my wife. I had filo chicken parcels and my wife had lamb rump. Both meals were excellent! Staff were friendly and helpful.

J.

Good food to be had here with friendly staff.

Wonderful views. We only stopped for coffee, which was OK. I'd like to visit it again for a meal.

N.

Perfect evening. Food lovely... And good(large) portions. Service great. Little noisy as busy.

Beautiful view of the harbor at night. Stopped in for a glass of wine and piece of cake. Loved the atmosphere and the staff were super awesome-warm, friendly, and inviting.

S.

Awesome bar, great place fro a cheeky mid-week drink with the wife. Great views over the CBD, staff are brilliant as well.

M.

Nice meal, good waitress, social distances well done. Been just before lockdown and now again on reopening and will be back again. Thanks Luna.

R.

Great views. Romantic setting. Men .. Order the right meal and matching wine you must just get lucky? ... a fruit desert choice.

R.

Had the very delicious waffles for brunch. Generous serving as well.

N.

Beautiful views and great range of snacks and drinks! We went for an afternoon tea and we were very happy.

t.

One of the best places in Dunedin. Awesome food, great views and Simon runs an amazing restaurant. Highly Highly recommend.

T.

The meal and the surroundings were excellent but the service was poor, we were a large group of 16 but had booked in advance so a 50 minute wait for our meal was too long

G.

Fantastic location and views. Service was prompt and efficient. Food was excellent with very large servings.

j.

Good customer service there, food is generally nice an they have a bar there. The views are incredible on the second floor as it over looks Dunedin.

(Translated) This restaurant is located above the city and also offers this view of the city and bay. The food and drinks are good and worth the slightly higher price. The waitresses are very friendly. You don't have the classics like Martini or Ramazzotti and you don't even know them, but here in Dunedin it's not a broken leg. (Original) Dieses Restaurant liegt über der Stadt und bietet ebenfalls diesen Blick auf die Stadt und bucht. Das Essen und die Getränke sind gut und den etwas höheren Preis wert. Die Bedienungen sind sehr freundlich. Man hat zwar nicht die Klassiker wie Martini oder Ramazzotti und kennt diese nicht einmal, aber hier in Dunedin ist es kein Beinbruch.

N.

(Translated) Friendly staff service and views over Dunedin. The seafood chowter wasn't bad either. (Original) 친절한 직원의 서비스와 더니든이 다 내려다 보이는 경치. 씨푸드 챠우터도 나쁘지 않았습니다.
