Definitely get a reservation. Everything we had was excellent. We had the veal osso bucco, the calamari, and the spicy penne alla vodka. My boyfriend says his shrimp was slightly overcooked but I honestly thought it was good. It’s a bit pricey but it’s very clearly a higher end restaurant. Doesn’t look as nice from the outside but the inside has great ambiance and even better food. Our server was also excellent.

Our daughter and her boyfriend had dinner at Luna Bella around Christmas. Like we always do when eating at a restaurant, we take pictures and share in the family group chat. It looked AMAZING! Forgot all about til my husband and I had a “date night” and we wanted something different. That’s when we remembered Luna Bella and so we made the 30-45min drive and it did NOT disappoint.
We did call-in on our way to double check if reservations are needed and I’m glad we did because YES…make the reservation ahead of time. It was a full schedule, and I think the Oaklawn races played a part in how booked they were, but thankfully they had 2 seats available at the bar. Not our typical choice but we didn’t mind seeing how we called on our way there.
Our server, Caitlin, could not have been more welcoming, very attentive, and very helpful when answering my questions (I have a shellfish allergy). My husband and I both ordered the Spicy Penne Alla Vodka dishes, except he had the shrimp & crab while I had the chicken, and it was SOOOOOOOOO good!!! Great flavor, great portion size, tender meat, and all around AMAZING. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting and definitely not what you would expect when driving up. We will most definitely visit again.

Luna Bella was amazing! Be warned that if you aren’t under a light, you might need a flashlight to read the menu. But the dark ambiance makes this restaurant so much fun. The service was great. The staff all seem to know each other well and work well together. The food is pricy if you’re on a budget, but it is SO WORTH EVERY PENNY! The herbed butter and bread is some of the best I’ve had, and I’ve had lots! One of us had the Burrata Caprese Salad and one had the Caesar Salad. One of us had the Eggplant Parmesan with angel hair and one had the Chicken Fettuccine. All of it was close-your-eyes and do a happy dance worthy!! We had no room for dessert. The wait was tolerable and we were after a large wedding party. The martinis were stout! All of it very very good. Highly recommend. Be sure to call and reserve a table!

The is a must. Two shelf scratch made food. The elk was incredibly juicy, tender, and full of flavor that was complemented by the crispy Brussels sprouts and smooth sweet potatoes. I topped off the meal with the best creme brûlée. The second best meal was the scallops that melted in my mouth with such flavors, it was hard to go back to the elk! The best meal we have had in nearly 10 years. The chef and staff present a world class restaurant. The unassuming building will have you fooled. The food outstanding. The staff was totally on top of their game. We will be back again soon! Worth every penny.

This was an amazing experience. We made a reservation a week in advance for 7 pm on a Friday night. The place has lots of ambiance with heavily tinted doors and low lighting. (You’ll need a flashlight to read the menu but it’s worth it). The staff really seemed to like each other and worked together well which makes the experience much better. Food is pricy, as it is advertised to be, but worth it. We had the Eggplant Parmesan, the Chicken Alfredo, the Caesar Salad, and the Burrata Caprese Salad (big enough for 2), along with the house Martini (strong!). We had no room for dessert but if we ever go to Hot Springs again we will definitely be making a reservation here! Also, the bread and butter is to DIE for!

We had dinner here for our date last night, ot was my first time trying this place and I was blown away with the food and service. Our waitress Tammy was awesome, great personality and knowledgeable of the menu. We started with buratta caprese and a ceaser salad, then had the stuffed lamb chops and scallops. Every dish was fantastic, I highly recommend this restaurant.

Unexpected gem! We were traveling for work with a group and were so impressed with our food, the ambiance, and our service. We had gluten and vegan restrictions in the group and they didn’t blink at our requests and even went above and beyond. Compliments to the chef and staff alike!

The food was all very delicious, and service was fantastic! My only thing was I felt I got hardly any food. Perhaps I’m used to large American portions, but I felt like there wasn’t much served. Again, super yummy.
