    Food quality and flavor has really gone down. Very disappointed in my meal. All of our waters had particulates floating in it. Hopefully not slime mold from the ice machine but kind of resembled it.

    Caffe Luna never disappoints. We celebrated my wife’s 60th birthday dinner with the kids. The service was great and the food was outstanding as always!

    One of our favorite restaurants in Raleigh. The food, ambiance, service are all spectacular. We had a wonderful birthday celebration that included wonderful salads and pastas. Can't wait to go back again soon!

    Had a great experience celebrating a birthday! Staff was super friendly and very helpful. A person in our group had a gluten allergen and they were very knowledgeable about which dishes could be accommodated and which to avoid. They were also very knowledgeable in cross-contamination.
