“I've lived in the area for 10+ years and Luna's is my favorite. The Luna Lava is to die for if you like spicy! Portions are out of control, but it makes you feel like you got your money's worth. The only negative is that there never seems to be enough wait staff and they only take cash. Some times the wait time for a table, even with reservations, can be in excess of an hour. But, usually it's worth the wait. You'll love the food! Just remember to stop at the ATM on the way and don't take your credit card. They have another location off the island on 41 across from Walmart. Smaller place, but equally good food.”

• Everything!
• I don't live close to it.

“Fantastic in every way. I've heard about if for a long time and just went for my first time. It was all I was told and more. If you like spicy, have some Luna Lava (It is terrific!)”

• Pasta dishes to die for!

“Great Italian Restaurant. We are in Italy 3-4 times a year and know Italian food. The price of the food and the amount, A+. People that say it is not that good are completely wrong. Just look at the wait and the people wanting to get in, and how long they have been in business over 16 years. Keep up the good work, the area loves Luna's!”

• Food, wine, everything is great!
• Ambiance is friendly, but not the main feature.

“This is one of the best Italian restaurants in Florida. My family is Italian (real Italian - Sicily and Corletto) and we have eaten in Italy and many great Italian restaurants in New York and other top locations. Luna's is one of the best, we have ever been to. Try it yourself and see if you don't agree. Luna's is great! And by the way, huge portions at a reasonable price is not a bad thing.”

• Never had the rapine before, it was great.
• Not a thing. Cannot not wait to come back.

“We have been going there for 5 yrs now and it is by far the best restaurant we have eaten at in Fl. The service has always been great and the food fabulous. We just came back and ate out the whole week with our two cousins and we all agreed it was our best dinner. Maybe some people rather pay for atmosphere rather than great tasting food. We like good food.”

• Lava.
• Rude staff, poor service and food.

“Too large portions of very mediocre food. The staff is very lax with poor service provide and even after a few complaints to management-no improvement-we stopped going altogether and would not recommend this as a good Italian eatery.”

• Location.
• Food, service.

“This was, by far, the worst dining experience I have had in Venice, fl. The atmosphere was great it was downhill from then on. Five of us ordered a meal maybe someone should have explained it was family dining? We had enough food left over to feed everyone for a month, and my entree wasn't worth taking home. When separate checks arrive, we were informed they did not take credit/debit cards didn't we see that on the front of the menu? Personally, I don't read the cover of a menu; I dive right in to the food selection. So, everyone made a mad dash across the street to the ATM's location the server kindly pointed out to us. We packed the food into plastic bags, loaded everything into the stroller and then carried our toddler back to our rental home. And, of course, all the excessive grease from the food leaked out on the stroller not good as a consumer, I would suggest being more informed than we were. Buyers beware.”

“I had a great first experience at Luna's. I went back recently, and the server was so rude that I left before I ordered my food. I don't know if I will ever go back now. It is a shame because the food is great.”

• The 'lava' tapanade is great.
• The wait staff is overly familiar, loud, rude, and slovenly.
