About Luna Junction

Luna Junction is a cozy, family-owned restaurant with a Portuguese-based menu that emphasizes seafood. Standout dishes include octopus on black-eyed peas and rapini, a flavorful rice dish for two, and octopus with delicious seasonings. The restaurant offers a bring-your-own-wine option for $25 corkage. Guests can enjoy dishes like liver, eggplant, and yogurt, risotto, and olives, with many praising the delicious cheese selection. Recent reviews highlight the freshness and flavor of the aubergine with feta, beet salad, and stew, as well as the standout lemon cheesecake, described as light and absolutely delicious. The atmosphere is intimate and private, perfect for a relaxed meal. The Petisco Sampler is a generous starter, and the Eggplant Harissa is highly recommended even for those who typically don’t enjoy eggplant. The steak is cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful. Service is friendly and attentive, with food arriving promptly. Although there was a minor issue with a dish arriving with chouriço despite a specific request, overall, the experience is outstanding. Luna Junction is a great place to visit again, especially for brunch, where eggs benedict with chipotle hollandaise and buttermilk pancakes are favorites. The back patio is beautiful with fresh flowers, making it perfect for a hot day or a summer night out. Guests often enjoy the seafood, such as monkfish and mussels in a delicately seasoned broth and rice, or the beautifully dressed mixed greens with prosciutto and shrimp. The wine list is excellent, with a good selection of reasonably priced Portuguese options, including a very reasonably priced Alberino. The atmosphere is inviting and casual, making the restaurant feel unpretentious. Many guests praise the service, the amazing food, and the good pricing, with some noting that the monkfish rice dish is enough for three people. Reservations are recommended, and Luna Junction continues to be a favorite for those seeking quality seafood and a friendly atmosphere.
