Luna Modern Mexican Kitchen

I love going here. Their beef nachos are really good. Their appetizers are so delicious. Some of their entrees are good, like their platter. The fish tacos from the entree were burnt on top, so they tasted bad.

My family & I usually love coming here, but the last 2 times were NOT top notch. July 2025 I came for brunch with 20 friends. Reserved weeks ahead. . The air conditioner had problems a few days before, so the restaurant was hot for 2/3 of our visit. Nice waiter opened the door to get a breeze, but it was a warm afternoon. Air conditioner eventually started working after an hour and a half... They could have called to let us know the Air wasn't working to give us the option of canceling... We should have had more servers, but the 1 older gentleman did a great job. I asked 4x for water for the entire table. Finally I walked over to the bar, asked the bartender if HE could give me water for the table. Imagine: 21 women, all over 50. He gave me 2 glasses of water, when I asked for more, he said,"You want water for ALL the ladies? Your server will get that for you." It took another 20 minutes to get water . Music was too loud: asked 3x if they could turn it down: They said no. I asked for pitchers of water for entire group, waiter apologized for the delay, said he'd get glasses of water & he finally explained there were 2 large groups, us & a family after baptism of baby & they were short staffed that day! A few servers called off work. Not enough room at slender tables to place pitchers at the table. 21 menopausal women NEED water! Food choices were on the small side for brunch. I ordered shrimp paella. Tasted good, just didn't fill me. I asked our group, everyone felt there wasn't enough food on plates to fill us up. August 2025: 14 family members came, I called ahead of time, said we are coming for happy hour. When we arrived @2:30 we were told "For happy hour you must stay on the tile floor, or sit at the bar in booths" No tables were reserved for us even though I called ahead. There is a carpeted area with tables that would have accommodated all of us adjacent to bar area that was empty of people. They COULD have seated us there, & have done so in the past, but we were told, "You cannot DO happy hour from the carpet, if u sit THERE you MUST order off regular menu." No one was sitting in that area. First they seated us at a Hightop table for 8, of us were there,1 person sat at end of table. Staff came after we ordered drinks to say,"Sorry you cannot have 1 person sit at this side of table at the Hightop table, it's a safety issue for staff, the manager says your group needs to move." We moved to 2 booths in bar area that sat 4 each, we sat 6 in 1 booth, a bit tight-4 in another 2 at the bar & two at a 2 seater. I baked a cake & brought it. I was informed there was a $3.00 service charge per person for them to cut & serve the cake. 3x14=42 extra!!! We've been loyal customers for years & never heard of this charge. I was told "manager is FIRM on this policy..." I thought, hmm o.k. what ever! Margaritas were weak! Food was ok. Not up to their usual standards. Should have been hotter when delivered to table! There was only 1 other group in bar area & regular restaurant was not busy. 1 of our party went out to his car, when he returned he saw a sign on the door saying "Restaurant is closing early tonight". We asked about it: they said they just found out a staff member had died. I asked if we should pack up & leave, they said "No, just when you're ready." We were there about 30 minutes longer. We love Luna's & give our sincere condolences on the loss of your staff member.

You know… this place is known in the whole community. And I can see why. But to me it’s just pretty basic…. The exterior and interior is very nice. It’s very clean and the staff is very professional. The bar area is large and the seating in general throughout is great. But the reason why I only put 3 stars is because the food. And being that it’s a restaurant that’s the main reason you go here right? I’ve had a few things. Mole chicken enchiladas. And about all happy hour items. Their happy hour is the highlight. Can’t go wrong with anything during happy hour. The mole enchiladas are extremely dry. The chicken is SO dry it’s hard to chew. The rice and beans are not very good either. The mole? Actually very good. Now if this mole was paired correctly and or made with tender moist chicken? That would be amazing. The weirdest part about all of this. Is that it’s a Mexican Reataurant. But you know what’s the best here? The bbq ribs. Trust me try them. Or just get the sampler platter which has some. Amongst other things. Would I recommend this place? Definitely for happy hour. It’s very clean inside and staff is great. Check it out, enjoy!

I ordered the chimichanga with beef. Growing up in AZ, I’ve had my share of chimichangas. They are delicious. They are familiar. Then this (refer to pictures) shows up at our table. A literal sack of meat. It’s tied with a red “ribbon” of sorts that crumbled when I attempted to remove it. I do not recommend combining the meat sack of a chimichanga with a margarita unless you’d prefer to cackle with laughter instead of eating. The chips were good.

I recently had the pleasure of visiting a stunning restaurant that truly amazed me! Its picturesque location makes it an ideal spot for hosting events, offering a perfect blend of ambiance and convenience. The staff went above and beyond with their attentive service, ensuring every detail was taken care of. And let me tell you, the food was simply delightful—each dish was an extraordinary culinary experience. I can't wait to return!

This hidden gem in Corona is absolutely 💯 👌 delicious in their food and their drinks are not just stunning in their presentation but amazingly so good. Everything is freshly made. Their food takes traditionally Mexican plates and transform them into more tasteful plates. Definitely the title of Luna Modern Kitchen lives up to eat. My husband and I love coming here on special occasions such as our wedding anniversary 💕 ❤️

I arrived at 11:30 for lunch with a colleague. The hostess showed me to my friend's favorite table. The staff was VERY helpful and attentive. We both ordered the chicken mole enchiladas, which came to our table very quickly. Lunch was very good, and the service and atmosphere were even better.

The staff is very nice and welcoming. The restaurant was clean. The food was delicious a bit pricey, but it was definitely worth it.

Luna Modern Mexican This is my absolute favorite restaurant in. The food is always fantastic and no matter what I order I am always delighted with my meal! Servers are also great and always efficient, happy and polite. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to eat Mexican cuisine. We are so fortunate to have this place just a 45 minutes drive away from home. Food is stunning, both the tapas and enchiladas are amazing. The restaurant cocktails wow, wine great and lovely selection of beers. Love this place and will continue to visit. Cocktails wow, wine great and lovely selection. And the butter cake excellent.

I'd give it 3.5 stars. We (double date) stopped by for dinner this past Saturday early evening. The booth we were seated in was very comfy. Service was good and decor was an upscale dark, classy lounge vibe. We started with the guacamole, made table side as our app. I got the Cisco appetizer sampler. My husband got the carne asada burrito with red sauce on top and the other couple shared the fajita special for 2. The guac was the best dish, in my opinion, especially with the thin tortilla chips and salsa. My appetizer sampler was ok, nothing to write home about. I should've ordered something else. My husband said the burrito was ok, again, nothing to write home about. The other couple didn't mention anything about their fajitas, so again, not spectacular. The cocktails were pretty good, though. The restaurant and another restaurant (Cisco) are located right next to each other in a new-ish and nice business park. At first I thought I was in the wrong location as you don't expect any restaurants there, but I guess they probably do really well for lunch during the week, catering to all the business lunches in the surrounding business park.

Luna is a yummy place to have a celebration. We went here to celebrate my coworker's retirement. They made her feel special by gifting her a flan and wrote happy retirement on the plate. That was such a sweet gesture. Other than the kind gesture, the place was very clean, service was good and the food was delicious. I had the appetizer sampler and had more than enough to bring home.

Good meal! Attended a wedding rehearsal here so can't speak on typical dining service. We had the Steak Adobado and Shrimp pasta. Definitely some great flavors going on. Steak had two different cooks , but still good with the potatoes. I really liked the shrimp dish. Butter cake was also delicious. Oh and the drinks were STRONG This restaurant is perfect for an event or special occasion. If in the area I would definitely go back.

Luna Modern Mexican Kitchen is great! The cheese enchiladas verdes are one of my favorites! It's just so good. The tortilla, sauce and loaded with lots of cheese. 10/10 on the enchiladas verdes! Not spicy at all by the way. I ordered these again this time. They were great!! I also ordered the Chopped Entrée Salad. Added some salmon on that and the salmon was good. 10/10 for the salmon filet. It was cooked well. The salad itself was just, odd. It had beans, corn, peppers, pickled onions, tomatoes, grapes, and a sweet vinaigrette dressing. The flavors just didn't mix together well. My husband got his favorite Mar Y Tierra Duet. He loved it and always orders this dish. It's hearty and always cooked well. We had good service. The server was friendly and as soon as my iced tea got low, she was on it! Nice ambiance at Luna Modern Mexican Kitchen.

I've been here countless times over the years since moving to Corona and I must say, the recipes haven't changed! I love the all the food and the drinks! I haven't had one complaint! Luna has a special place in my heart!

I love going here. Their beef nachos are really good. Their appetizers are so delicious. Some of their entrees are good, like their platter. The fish tacos from the entree were burnt on top, so they tasted bad.

Decided to come here on a whim for Valentine's Day. The restaurant is a hidden secret and as soon as you go inside, you would be surprised with its size. It's nicely lit and has a good ambiance. We ordered fresh guacamole and the shrimp for appetizers. For dinner, my husband got the chicken fajitas and I got the fish tacos. Overall, the drinks were decent as were the appetizers. That was about it. I was not big on the tacos nor did my husband enjoy his fajitas. The chicken was a bit overcooked. The service was decent but apart from that, I would probably only come back for a happy hour.

Luna Modern Mexican Kitchen is a very nice place located in a fancy business area in Corona. The restaurant is very well decorated with different pictures of famous Mexicans ie Cantinflas. Even though the restaurant was kind of empty, they gave us the table next to the room where employees take their breaks. Not good... More patrons started arriving and the restaurant got busy, we ordered Empanadas and Fajitas for two. Everything was tasting good and going well regardless the conversations we were hearing from the break room, until I found a HAIR in my food! It ruined the whole experience, I told our server and he blatantly ignored me. Needless to say I won't be going back over there, no matter how good the food and how fancy the restaurant. A hair in my food and bad service? That's wrong!

The food was decent and the restaurant was cozy, but the service was almost unbearably slow. The servers were very nice when we talked to them, but it was really long to get ahold of our waitress. We had a larger than normal group and were able to fit into a long table. The food came out at a decent time after we ordered, but again, it just took forever to get them to take our order. I will say that the chips were above average, super crispy with a good salsa.

Been here three times. Excellent upscale Mexican food. Excellent service, atmosphere & food. Last visit was for Easter Brunch 2025. Different than your typical brunch but very delicious & the price was right.

The gringo of the Mexican family raved about this spot. I knew it was questionable when his fav item was the chimichanga... The food is extremely Instagram worthy. I'll add pictures. THATS IT! All the appearances and ZERO FLAVOR. The food is so underwhelming, the entire party of 10 felt the same. If you're Mexican and know any flavor, do not come here. Most of the people here were of the lighter complexion and around 80 years old. NEVER AGAIN.

Great high end restaurant with authentic Mexican cuisine! Chips were warm and delicious.. salsa had a great taste and was mild. I had the chicken fajitas with flour tortillas and everything was perfect. Service was excellent! Food came out at a normal pace ... about 1 basket of chips in! It was across from our hotel and we said we were just visiting and they brought us a complimentary flan on a big plate with "Welcome to Luna" written in chocolate. * side note... that flan was awesome!!! A very nice wine selection with a nice sit down vibe .

I came here as part of a work gathering with a party of 14. There was a 3-course tasting menu that was provided in advance and I'm not sure if this is only offered for large groups. They offered chips and salsa for the table and the chips were crispy and fresh! We started with drinks and I ordered a virgin blackberry margarita which took almost an hour to get. I think there were several other large groups that night and the waitress definitely seemed frazzled. For my appetizer, I ordered ceviche. It was a little different from other ceviches I've had since I believe that used coconut milk so it tasted a little heavier than I was accustomed to. There were large chunks of seafood so it was very satisfying. For my main entree I had the filet mignon and lobster enchilada with scalloped potatoes. The filet mignon was tender and paired nicely with the reduction sauce. The lobster enchilada surprised me and was my favorite part of the dish! For dessert we ended with butter cake topped with a scoop of caramel ice cream. The ambiance is very nice and is a great place for a celebration. The dinner just took a long time to get through because there was a lot of time between each course, but this may have been due to issues of being short staffed.

It was my first time visiting here. Great food and drinks. I had the chimichanga, which was flavorful and elegant in presentation. All of the entrees are really well presented. The server was unfriendly and bland, but she was attentive in service. She smiled once, when dropping off the check. Perhaps it was a terrible day, but each encounter felt awkward.

My recent visit to LUNA was a delightful experience, I order the Steak and Shrimp Fajitas it was delicious, the presentation of the Chimichanga was very cute and it tasted great, our server was friendly and kind and the restaurant has a nice ambiance. I will highly recommend.

Tequila tasting dinner is back. Service was terrible cocktails were supposed to come with the appetizer and main course and dessert. We finished each of those before the cocktails showed up. Waiter disappeared numerous times we had to ask other folks were working there to find our waiter for us. We even spoke to the manager and nothing happened when we asked her to get the waiter for us. Food was very inconsistent between the four of us two pork dinners two fish dinners. Portions were different on each plate. Pork on one plate came out extra rare. We showed the waiter and he just shrugged.

Good food. Great service. Nice ambiance. Food is not spicy, but very tasty! Salmon was delicious. A hidden gem!

Fabulous flavors, bright colors, made-to-order delicious meal. The chicken taquito appetizer was the perfect bite with a wonderful presentation. The initial salsa and chips they served were a great start to this wonderful meal. The service was pleasant and the decor of this restaurant is beautiful. We were a very large group that privately reserved the entire restaurant and they were very accommodating to our group.

Amazing food, ambiance, and drinks! Came in impromptu and sat at the bar. Was a great experience! Bartenders gave amazing service!

I visited the restaurant when they opened it and i remember food being great! Unfortunately they went down as far as flavor, to start the salsa for the chips didn't have salt, we asked for a salad and a tamal with goat cheese, that was good, after that we got the pork chop and the cochinita, the pork chop came out on the dry side, and believe or not it was dry (for the type of cut they are using) and salty, i was thinking that the extra salt on the cochinita would be perfect on my salsa for my chips, the presentation seems a little too old school but that's not a big deal. Service is decent not the greatest and i can't complain since as far as they take the order and bring the food out is enough some times. The ambiance is great and it's very upscale as far as good music and beautiful decor that doesn't match the food I want to like it but I think next time I just go a cross the street.

Came here for Happy Hour with a few friends on our way home from the mountain. Happy Hour Margaritas were on point. We ordered the sweet potato fries, chicken taquitos, and beef sopes. The chicken taquitos were my favorite of the 3. The chicken was marinated very well. Not dry. The combination of the chicken and the sauces made this a dynamite dish. The beef sopes were good. It seemed to be my friend's favorite. Bartender was attentive in the beginning of our visit. Once our food came out he really didn't check on us. By the way, he was not busy. Didn't even ask if we wanted another drink until we asked for the check, which we definitely would have ordered another one easily. Although we only came in for drinks and appetizers I felt we should have been asked if we wanted chips and salsa. I'll never understand restaurants that only give out chips and salsa with a meal order. Especially since one can easily spend the same amount on drinks and appetizers. Money is money. Maybe I had to ask, I don't know. I did hear him offer a gentlemen chips and salsa, but that gentlemen ordered a meal. Restaurant itself was fairly big. Plenty of tables. Average noise. Clean. Bathrooms are shared with the entire building.

Delicious! A favorite for when I visit friends in Corona. Happy hour is incredible. Such great process for food and drinks. Service is always spot on.

Romantic ambience once you get inside the restaurant. Our drinks and food took a very long time to come out which the reason for the two stars. Also, the staff is extremely inattentive and unfriendly.

I'm always nervous to walk into a "modern" Mexican spot. Typically the food is a terrible substitute for the traditional food. Not here! This was priced very well, the food was delicious and the service was excellent. This is a nice casual like environment with a great selection of foods. It's quiet yet not, At the same time A must try. My camarones were delicious and only $18

This was my husband and I first time dining here. And let me just say, we will definitely be back! The food was amazing, we ordered a couple TNT margaritas really smooth and made very well. We also got cazuela con queso fundido as an appetizer, I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I did, normally I like just cheese and chorizo but it had rajas I believe and bits of corn?? I'm not sure but all so tasty. Our mains were Steak Adobado, and my husband got carnitas de lechon pibil they were so tender and full of flavor and the salsa ancho chile I believe the flavor was outstanding. Our server was Maria, she was just perfect! She was such a sweetheart, she came checked on us very frequent and made sure our drinks were never low and she was just very bubbly and happy. We didn't take too many pictures of overall this was delicious and will definitely come again!

Perfect. I love mole, the burrito looked amazing but we didn't share. Food came out remarkably fast, service was top tier. Should've tried the butter cake but we'll have to come back.

The service was great and the food was good. The beef empanadas were really yummy. The shrimp pasta I got was just ok lacked flavor. The butter cake could have been moist. The drinks were on point!

What a great ambience and service. The food was amazing. The Paloma drink was just as good. We got seated right away, and waiting time was just right.

I'm a huge foodie and first impressions are always lasting! When I walked in the hostess Olivia greeted my husband and I with a huge smile and happily answered my array of questions. I especially appreciated that she set up seating for us outside although the patio was closed ! The empanadas Olivia suggested was a huge banger and we will definitely return to eat them again ! It was dimly lit on the inside and perfect for a date night. Absolutely love this place!

Can't say enough we had reservations for Mother's Day Brunch, our reservations was at 11:30 we were seated on time great menu great price champagne was a good added bonus. Everyone was nice, friendly and accommodating. Looking forward to going again

This place is going downhill. I believe the Rancho location already closed. Bartender was nice but you had to flag her down or stare at her whenever you needed something. The desserts we ordered were awful. Hard dry stale butter cake. I can't believe they'd serve that. The flan tasted like it had been in the refrigerator for months and the fried ice cream was difficult to eat. This was a go to spot for my family and I but we will be choosing other similar locations in the area next time we're craving over priced Mexican food

Everything was delicious. Very upscale menu, not the usual Mexican food. Love it!!! Would come back over and over again!

Right across from Residence inn, corona. Convenient for business lunch. My co- workers seemed to enjoy.

Hands down the best happy hour in the Inland Empire. They serve real food (not like other places that offer fried junk) and decent serving size. I highly recommend the chicken and slaw salad, steak tacos and rib sopes. Service is excellent and cozy ambiance in the bar area.

Met some friends here for Christmas lunch and the server highly recommended the Chile Relleno lunch special -- 3 out of 4 of us ordered it and it was truly amazing! The first bite was like a party in your mouth--delicious is an understatement. Thank you Luna for serving this special lunch for the holidays. We think you should make it a regular lunch special on your menu.

The restaurant itself was beautiful, and we tried it out after a late church service (on a Sunday around 1230). It wasn't super busy when we arrived, but service was pretty slow. Our server was super friendly and nice, but we waited a good amount of time for our check, refills on water, etc. Grace upon grace, because she seemed to be one of the only servers, but I would say this is something the restaurant needs to be more mindful of. It's pricey. This is definitely not a restaurant you would visit often, more of a special occasion place (at least for us). We didn't know this, but decided to make the most of our time there. The food was presented beautifully, and it was seasoned well. We thought it was just fine. We enjoyed the experience for sure, and anyone who is looking for a more fine-dining Mexican restaurant, I would definitely say to give this place a try.

I was visiting someone who worked above this restaurant and wanted a little bite waiting for them to get out of their meeting. Amazing customer service from the servers who are super friendly and made me feel welcomed to the establishment immediately! As for the food, the chips were super crisp and yummy with the right amount of salt and salsa. They definitely taste fresh and authentic! The enchiladas verde were very delicious and filling along with the beans and rice. All for a decent price too! The ambiance is very pleasing too with the booths being comfortable and the lights being the perfect amount of dim. Definitely was a nice comfort lunch during the rain if you work or live nearby! Will be back.

A gem at Corona! Great food and great ambience. Complex taste with subtle notes on flavors of dishes.

Our visit was our first time there. We were greeted and seated promptly. Our drink order was taken quick and it arrived quick and they were good. The table and seats were clean and the lighting was perfect. We shared to fajitas and they were so good. We were given a complimentary dessert for it being our first visit. Definitely a do again

YOU CAN LAUGH! BUT PEOPLE USED TO BELIEVE THERE WERE NO SUCH THINGS AS THE BLIBBERING HUMDINGER OR THE CRUMPLE-HORNED SNORKACK - Luna Lovegood And people still believe there are no good restaurants in Corona. And they'd be wrong. For there is Luna Modern Mexican Grill next to the Residence Inn I sometimes stay in. Excellent food, lovely interior, $15 corkage fee. My chicken mole enchiladas were good, not great. Mary Jo loved her filet special of the day. The empanadas were interesting and tasty. We've ate here before same consistency. The chips and salsa are addicting. When it's not 100 degrees the patio is lovely to sit outside too. Highly recommended :-)

This was a nice place and inside looked a little fancy. Went here with a few of my friends after Skull Canyon and it was nice to have some really good food. I've never had fajitas where they had 3 different types of protein so that was delicious for sure. My friend had some soup, but it was very different. I liked it but didn't love it. The salad was yummy and loved everything they put in it. The chips and salsa were yummy, but wish there was a chunky version. Service was great and I would definitely come back, especially with a group and maybe at night time, seems like it would be a fun place in the evening and get dressed up.

First time coming here, made a reservation and mentioned that we came for an anniversary. Ordered a wine, cocktail and mocktails for the kiddos. Appetizers was just okay, we did enjoyed it. Food came and i thought it was overly salted. Specialty drinks were just okay, nothing special. Service was slow but after you got everything the server seemed like he wanted to just kick you out. Wasn't asked what kind of occasion we came in for, or if we wanted to order any dessert, he just dropped the check. The check was laying on the table for like the longest time, then he came back to run our card 23 minutes after he dropped our guest check. Went to the bar and grabbed our own to go containers and plastic bags that were laying on the side of the bar. Not sure if we ever want to go back. Cute place, looked very authentic, maybe we were just patronizing on the wrong day or given the worst server.

I would give this place 3.5 stars not sure if I can give half but the reason is the food was not authentic I know it's modern however the salsa had too much of a tomato taste and didn't taste like salsa but rather tomatoe chutney. We ordered the special. Surf and turf which was filet mignonand shrimp with mashed potatoes and spinach the steak had some kind of sauce which taste like cinnamon but yet clover I can't explain the flavor but I didn't like it. Mashed potatoes had a hard substance on the bottom perhaps baked potatoes no difference besides the texture. The food including our appetizer was not hot but Luke warm, I was fine but my husband likes his food hot. We ordered mini sopes , so cute and little stuffed with braised short rib those topped with tomato and geso fresco I liked it. I ordered the lavender Martini, delicious served in a tin Martini cup to keep cold. My husband tried the waitresses suggestion which was a watermelon Martini with some flower , it was pretty good as well. His drink had pieces of what it looked like watermelon. Service was good, our waiter was attentive and brought our items fast, appreciated! Ambiance is dark and can be romantic, we were there celebrating our August bdays!! There's 5 of us who have bdays in August, it was a great time. Parking is close and several spots. This place is located in commercial buildings which I've been seeing lately, nice place. I don't think I'd come back, it was nice to try but not my style of Mexican food.

We normally judge a Mexican restaurant by it' salsa, as that it your first food impression. If we had done so in haste, we would have missed a wonderful meal. We went for a late Sunday brunch. The food, the atmosphere and the service were all in line for the price we paid. The shrimp enchiladas and steak were both well prepared and very flavorful. The salsa, however, let's just say that it would be best if Luna scrapped this cilantro-flavored water and started over (maybe a nice quemada?). Also, the desserts seemed pre-made. I would have preferred a freshly made sopapilla to the butter cake.

Amazing food and good service. Shoutout to my amazing server Olivia, very professional and outgoing

I love Mexican food and Luna has a different flair on things that take it to another level! Brunch is amazing!

Awful restaurant !!the owner is an extremely unprofessional and rude! We we're not welcomed and they took forever to take our order he also ruined my sisters day and made her cry in front of all the guests...I will definitely not be returning
