The dishes in Luna Rosa were amazing! The staff were very friendly and professional. I did not recall hearing any music, but the atmosphere was already great when we were surrounded with friends and families.

This is my new favorite NYC Italian restaurant. It’s incredible hospitality (which goes over and beyond “service”) makes you feel like family. The food is outstanding. And the restaurant has a wonderful and cosy ambience; and is kept spotless.

Neighborhood delight! This is my go to dinner place for a chill Italian meal. All of the waiters have been here for the past 10 years and welcome you like family when you come in! The fig gnocchi and chicken martini are my favorites!
