Reviews Summary

Luna Bar and Restaurant is praised for its breathtaking views and romantic atmosphere, making it a popular spot for dates and special occasions. Diners often rave about signature dishes like the steak and crème brûlée, along with generous portions and friendly service. However, some guests have experienced long waits for their food, which has occasionally arrived lukewarm.

"The view is beautifully awesome. You can see Dunedin from the top. The parking space is easy to find. Nice coffee and delicious food."

Alexander Santosa

"Went to Luna Bar for a lunch coffee. First thing I noticed was the great atmosphere and view. Outdoor seats are amazing on a nice day and has a balcony also.
Only ordered some coffees. Tasted burnt and was far too hot, indicating that the milk was over steamed. Got it for takeaway and could barely finish it which is disappointing.
Would still come back and give this place another chance given the location and atmosphere is top class."

Tander Andy

"Though it was late, they did provide us a great lunch. It was excellent 👏 👌. The view from here was awesome and I must say the service was friendly and helpful. I would recommend it to those visiting Dunedin."
