Luna Park

Well, it was a little noisy, a little cramped. But, the hostess was charming and our waitstaff Constance efficient, pleasant and very helpful. We ordered some goofy drinks. The fresh strawberry mojito and the Dr Pepper bottle w/ vanilla vodka. Really delish, I am embarrassed to say that. So now I am both a coupon using senior and a spring break drinker. I am sooo ashamed.
The grilled artichoke had a really nice lemony sauce, the little bibb lettuce and radish salad perfectly delicate. We had the special trout, it was a huge portion.Fried and not greasy w/ smashed potatoes and stewed tomatoes. The only deficit was the underdone fennel. The mac and cheese was good,not transcendent.
I really don’t like peanut butter anywhere but on a sandwich. My other half, will eat it on a pork chop. We had the peanut butter pie, AMAZING. Light yet intensely flavored. I want more!

Four girlfriends tried Luna Park for their Dine LA prix fixe menu.
Appetizers – The tuna “poke” (pronounced pokey) was very tasty; seared tuna, tomatoes, onion, marinated in soy sauce w/crispy wontons. The goat cheese fondue was okay; a small ramekin of melted cheese came with thinly sliced apples and (too much) toasted bread. i love feta & apples, but this cheese was not as salty so was kind of bland. The carrot soup tasted like tomato w/a slight carrot aftertaste. It needed some zing.
Entrees – The flat iron steak salad was tender & juicy w/lovely mixed greens. Grilled Salmon over Spaghetti ‘Aglio y Olio’ and Watercress was very nice but the cress might just as well have been spinach. One of us doesn’t eat carbs, so they accommodated her w/spinach instead of pasta.
Desert – the Meyer lemon tart had a thin chocolate layer that was moot. It was very tart. It came w/bittersweet chocolate sauce, too. It didn’t need any of the chocolate & i didn’t like the bitter w/the tart citrus. The fried apple pie w/caramel ice cream was yummy.

Great food!

Crabcakes were way too salty. Mashed potatoes were way too buttery. The food is whatever… but the atmosphere is good. Supposedly, the smores are great…

it’s good but not spectacular. halloween is fun because a lot of people come in costume.

Their menu selection isn’t that big, but definitely get the mac and cheese dish. Everyone was eating off of my dish instead of theirs b/c it’s that good. Overall, it’s just ok.

It definitely wasn’t as good as I expected it to be.
