Lunch was delicious and fast. Being new place it's less visited but it's definitely a cornerstone of restaurants in this area.
After one visit to Abbiocco Luna, I can certainly say that I was happily surprised to taste a wide array of homemade, scratch-kitchen Italian foods. I was intrigued by the Minestrone, as it's smokey flavor was quite different than most I have tasted. Following my soup, I was greeted with the two entrees that we had ordered: Linguine (with Clams), and Apellini Con Polpette (spaghetti and meatballs). The linguine is black due to its "burned Millhouse" effect, which I suggest you ask your waiter to explain, it's an interesting story. The pasta in the linguine was Al dente, and I enjoyed the spice. The spaghetti was somewhat overcooked, being a bit too soft. The house made meatballs were quite tasty, however. We finished off with flavorful desserts, which were consumed in moments, even after eating a full meal. I will be returning to try the dinner menu, as we attended during lunch.
Pretty good for the first visit. Prices to be expected for a place like this w/ drinks and dessert. Will be back. Service was good.
I had dinner here with my 15-month-old on a quiet weekday. There was no wait when we got there and we were promptly greeted and seated at a table that worked well for a baby (facing the TV). I especially appreciated the waitress disinfecting the high chair before bringing it to our table. The best part was the staff. I am not sure if the waitress assigned to my table was new or better trained (after reading the other reviews), but I enjoyed their service the most.
The food was good, not great and a bit pricey. We had a pizza, meatball appetizer, a lasagna and a side of brussels sprouts. The dough on the pizza is thin and crunchy but a bit more oily than traditional Italian pizzas. The Brussels sprouts were a bit burnt, but I like that, however not everyone does. The lasagna was very good and it’s a bit different: short rib instead of ground meat. The total for our bill after tip was about $80.
Overall, I would eat here again.
