Our waitress did a great job. Food was good. Value was above average. We had the last seating for lunch. They needed to turn over the restaurant for dinner. They never rushed us and were very accomodating.

Had a delicious lunch here last weekend. Service was friendly and prompt and the view is splendid. My husband enjoyed his chicken katsu very much. The lobster tempura roll as are the lobster wantons is extraordinary. I would definitely recommend Luna Asian Bistro.
