Yelp.com Review - by Bm A.

5.0 of 5 stars. This place is soooo good. It has a great ambience as well, with orange walls in a dimly lit room. While it can be crowded during dinner rush hour, it is a great place for a date or quiet conversation....

Yelp.com Review - by Danielle F.

5.0 of 5 stars. My husband and I love this place. It has a very hip atmosphere, but everyone is dressed casual. It is very small, so on Friday and Saturday nights it can get very busy and have a long wait. Make...

The food is terrific (especially the tamales)! The staff are all warm and friendly, and the atmosphere is extremely chill.

Luna Maya was a great surprise. The food was great with a very cozy atmosphere. I only wish it was a little larger, as we had to wait for about 45 minutes for a table for 7.

Try the Pastele Tres Leches

Ah. The Pastele Tres Leches...it's single best desert ever made and Luna Maya has it. The two sisters who own the restaurant go out of their way to serve authentic dishes.

the trifecta - my favorite drink, my favorite dish, my favorite dessert by Jennifer E. at InsiderPages
