25 Essential South Bay Area Restaurants
"Ever since its inception as a family-run, farm-to-table Mexican restaurant, Luna has been committed to its tried-and-true processes. The restaurant’s masa is made daily using the thousand-year-old method of nixtamalization, and the tortillas and chips are hand-pressed with the nixtamalized masa. All of the salsas, sauces, broths, dressings, beans, rice, and chorizo are made from scratch in-house. Diners frequently order the mixed grill parrillada, a sizzling hot, communal-style tabletop grill with Niman Ranch carnitas, steak, bacon-wrapped shrimp, Mary’s chicken, lobster, and cheese chile relleno. The enchiladas suizas are also a crowd pleaser." - Paolo Bicchieri, Cathy Park
