Indeed, there, upon the mantle of one’s most tangible good sources, laid so gently upon mine eyes such beauty of cuisine as to inspire my most melodious passions. That is, when flavor met tongue — or was it heart — I seemed an effigy of awe. Awe, turned to purest rage. A seething not against incompetency, nor lack, nor any such unpleasant makings, but rather against an inner child who simply can no more comprehend exquisite flavor as a dog comprehends the shape of its tiny perceived universe. Indeed, I was enraged, moaning, desirous, dismantled, amazed. Pleasure, and all the more pleasure.
Took a bit longer than expected to prep the order though.

The smash burger was amazing! My son had both the pulled pork and quinoa empanadas. I tasted the pulled pork one, and it too was amazing and full of flavor.

Everything we ate here was excellent. Our waiter was great & super friendly. The only drawback is that we had to eat outside, which probably would've been fine during the day, but not at dusk.

A pleasant surprise - while looking for a place to have lunch got mixed with the need to find cover from heavy rain. Luna's staff treated us like they knew us - in a good way. Spotless service and delicious food. No issues with modifications on our order. Great restaurant.

In town for work. Chose this place based on reviews. Excellent choice! Fantastic customer service from start to finish. Everyone was friendly. Our server was excellent. The food was delicious. You MUST save room for a dessert empanada! And honestly the cost was shockingly affordable.

We ate here twice during a 5 day work week in Durham. The food was excellent as well as the service.
Our favorite thing was the Chile Lime Cauliflower. It was so good we came back for lunch today before flying back home, just so we could have the Cauliflower again. If we make it back to Durham we will definitely eat here again.

What an impeccable meal - totally hit the spot - and excellent service and dining experience. Our second time visiting this restaurant and it’s SO GOOD. I had two veggie empanadas and garlic kale - PERFECTION! Bae had meat and collard greens and black beans and rice. Yum! God, their collards are so good! Our waiter was very kind, and we enjoyed a great meal.
Vegetarian options: Their vegetarian options will scratch ALL your itches and still allow you to get some protein. So good.
The rotisserie meat entrees are incredible and the Pork empanada is Fuego!! Hilary is the best!!

Fast service and great chicken empanadas w flavor. I wish I had ordered more. Very interested in trying the chocolate empanada!
Parking: Street parking can be hard to find a spot there are 2 spots directly in front of the restaurant. I do not believe they have their own lot.

Just moved to the area and have been anxiously excited to try this spot! Had the chance to do so tonight, I got the beef brisket takeout. I’m not sure if it was because it was to go, but the portion of brisket couldn’t have fed an 8-year-old much less a 30-year-old man. The food was super tasty and I wish I could give them a 4 honestly but how small the portion was is pitiful.
I don’t mind paying $20 plus but make it worth it..
