Very good food. Chili cheese fries and breakfast burritos here are my favorite but everything else I have tried has been delicious. Extremely polite people here as well. One of my favorite places to eat in Moorpark

Cookies and cream with boba!

They have BoBa now!!! I've been coming for years and their food and service has always been top notch and it just keeps getting better and better!

Bacon Breakfast Burrito

So, a little back story. I enjoy heading over to Starbucks and occasionally eat their breakfast burrito with my dark roast coffee. Well naturally one day I go and they are out of their burritos. The gal at the register was trying to tell me to get a "real" burrito by signaling with her head and eyes like over there...so, I was looking at her like where's over there? Long and short she never actually told me where over there was but after driving around in the parking lot I finally realized she meant at the very end of the parking lot where no one goes . So, basically Char-Broiler has a following for their Breakfast Burritos. Who knew. Well now you're in the know. This place has some of the best breakfast burritos I've ever had. Seriously, you need to try it! Also, be sure to get an extra side of their salsa. You can watch how much they stuff their burritos with golden hash browns, scrambled eggs and cheeses. I've only had it with their bacon so my review is limited to that version. Basically you cannot go wrong with this burrito. Pro tip. Order by phone and pick it up. It will save you some time and while you wait grab a coffee at Starbucks and thank them for the burrito tip.

New menu items!

Best breakfast burritos in town! Burgers and chicken Greek salad are highly recommended too! Ranch is ok. Not sure if something changed in the recipe but would love to see them refine the ranch recipe!

I just recently celebrated my birthday here in the private room and the staff were really attentive and helpful. I finally got to try their pizza and it was definitely delicious. Top drinks to try: yuzu lemon drop (sooo good), paper planes, and the cucumber smash! Appetizers: Mac n cheese balls are always a crowd pleaser and Brussel sprouts were my favorite. Mains: the chicken scallopini, the sand dabs!!! So good, and the beef short ribs!

Starting with the good... Ambience - Cozy and inviting. Service -- Warm, friendly and attentive. We were quite impressed with everyone who took care of our dining experience starting with the hostess, to our sweet server Danielle, the food runner and to the exceptional busser who kept our table cleared, water glasses filled, then packaged our leftovers. Kudos to Freda's for this. The Focaccia Rustico -- This was the best part of our meal. It came out freshly baked and so satisfyingly delicious as we dipped in the small bowl of olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Portions - Generous. Parking - Lots of options nearby and free. The disappointments...(see pics) Food delivery - There was a long wait during our visit. We overheard a waitress tell a table who arrived after us that the kitchen was backed up. Gnocchi -- This did not look like the picture on their website. The gnocchi was perfectly cooked but was barely covered with sauce. My husband initially thought that they served me Mac n' Cheese by mistake. I could not taste the sun-dried tomato at all. The added shrimp was seared on only one side and was severely under seasoned. Then as we drove home, I notice that the price we were charged ($25+$9 (shrimp)=$34) did not match the menu or the website that noted $24+$8=$32. This overcharge was minor but added to the overall disappointment. Braised Short Rib - This was closer to the website but with far less au jus. The carrots were terrible. They were not roasted, tasted boiled and had a rubbery texture. The short rib was fork tender but very salty. The mashed potatoes were good. We skipped dessert. Sadly, we won't be returning.

I came here to try out California Bun, an eatery that has harnessed an interesting (long overdue) concept, to package portable food. Here they prepare snack sized bites (or a little more) of favorite food fancies, enveloped in a daily fresh baked round brioche bun. The store is high ceiling, spacious and large, with ample space to dine in or carry out. It is a mom and pop joint, that is slowly but surely, beginning to make a mark. On the main wall, elegantly displayed, are all the many enticing varieties, for the day. My visit was designed to take something to go. The conundrum here is, what to order, because there were so many inviting choices that were talking to you. I finally decided to select three of these evenly browned and differently topped buns. The El Sabroso (Egg, cheddar & jack cheese, bacon & Jalapeno salsa, garnished with Cheese, bacon & jalapeño). The Roadside Burger (Seasoned ground beef, grilled onions, white American cheese, & secret house burger sauce, garnished with Cheese & bacon). The Mac Daddy (Creamy mac and cheese with a cheddar, jack, and parmesan cheese blend, garnished with Panko bread crumbs). So whats the verdict? The Mac Daddy was my least favorite. In comparing the other two, the Roadside Burger seemed to have the higher of (inside filling/inside bread) ratio, as compared to the El Sabroso. However, the latter is the most attractive bun on the outside and overall, contains a good mix of flavors and slight kick. Any food with a visible Jalapeño is a magnet, for me. Still, this concoction needs more of the egg mixture, to achieve the right balance. In general, all 3 buns were soft, had a nice texture, bread taste and chew. Service here is warm, inviting, friendly and informative.

The sandwich was delicious--the avocado was fresh and flavorful, and the sprouts added such a great touch.

The Modern Greek Salad is sooo good, with or without chicken. Today, I had a chicken kabob plate (a reorder that is totally worth it) today and finally tried the falafel - one of my favorites (crispy on the outside and not dry on the inside). I LOVE the drinks - the mango lime agua fresca and lemonade are especially delicious on a warm day. The indoor area is pretty and the patio area is too.

If you like fresh Mediterranean food in a comfy and casual environment, I think you should go to Luna Grill . : )

Update regarding gluten-free options:…read more I honestly wouldn't be lowering my rating if Luna Grill corporate and the restaurants had really thought through this situation better. I've always loved Luna Grill, and that's what makes this so frustrating. They recently started using pita chips in the fryer, which means several items that were previously considered gluten free can no longer safely be flagged as gluten free because of cross-contact. For people with gluten allergies, sensitivities, or celiac disease, that's not a small change. It removes a lot of safe options from the menu. The sad part is that this feels completely avoidable. Pita chips could be purchased separately, fried somewhere else, bagged, or handled in a way that doesn't contaminate the fryer for gluten-free diners. Losing access to items like fries, falafel, and other fryer items over pita chips is extremely disappointing. I still love Luna Grill and want to support them, but this change makes it much harder for gluten-free customers to eat there safely. I really hope corporate reconsiders this decision or creates a dedicated fryer solution so people with gluten allergens are not pushed out of options.

Within ten seconds of walking in, I was greeted by Ama, who set the tone for the whole visit. She was warm, welcoming, and attentive throughout.

Most places serve it in a paper cup where the espresso and gelato just blend into a mushy mess. Not here. Carrara's presents it beautifully on a stone tray, with a proper espresso cup and a transparent glass so you can actually see the layers of gelato and espresso.
