caffe luna
As long as I’ve lived downtown I have never been to Caffe Luna…until tonight. I’ve walked by there hundreds of times and as i expected the experience was exceptional. The service was great and the food showed me why they’ve been around for so long.
I started with Caesar Salad. This was unlike any Caesar I’ve had before. The ingredients were the same, but dressing was different. Instead of dressing and croutons and different textures of cheese, the dressing incorporated the cheese. It wasn’t too overpowering and made the dish. I liked having crunchy lettuce and croutons as the only main ingredients. The dressing was spread evenly and really worked.
My main course was Tortelli Crostacci which was fresh pasta sutffed with various seafoods (crab/lobster/prawns i believe) in a ricotta tomato cream sauce. This dish was hearty but light, filling but not over done, great example of the amazing food downtown.
Parking:
Several options here, you’ve got on street parking around moore square and various roads. There is also a public deck one block north on Blount Str.
