Eight of us made reservations for lunch. Unfortunately even though it was half empty, our table had not been set up. We were generally fine with the margaritas and the food they seemed very short staffed and the food took forever to come out. Talked to the manager, who was busy on his iPhone, and basically got a shrug! His attitude cost the restaurant at least one star. BTW our server was trying hard but had no help. The busboy flat refused to help - even with waters. The place has potential but they seem to have lost the desire to excel. Not likely to return. read more

Luna Loca is a longtime Danville favorite with a lively atmosphere, welcoming service, and a fun, colorful setting. It's a great spot for a casual meal, brunch, or a night out with friends and family. The food is flavorful and satisfying, and the margarita selection adds the perfect finishing touch without being the entire focus. Always an enjoyable experience, and definitely a place I'll continue coming back to! read more

The staff was great. We had a group of 8 people. They took our orders promptly. The food came out fairly quickly. No issues. I ordered the beef burrito. The order was huge. I took most of it home. What I noticed about this burrito is that it only came with the meat, beans, and cheese inside. Then it was covered with sauce and cheese on top. I asked for the beans to be replaced with rice. Normally, my burrito is not covered with sauce and the meat, salsa, lettuce, cheese, guacamole, and sour cream are spread out inside my burrito. My beef came in chunks instead of being shredded. I didn't care for the chunky beef. The overall flavor of the burrito was good, however. The sour cream and salsa were also outside of the burrito...on the plate. I would not order this dish again just because the burrito is put together differently than the way I prefer my burrito. Parking is available but may be further away from the restaurant during peak times. read more

We have not been to Luna Loca's for quite awhile and we will NOT be back! The Nachos with beef were horrible! The beef was so dry we could not eat it! We ordered two soft tacos, but were served two crispy tacos and a green sauce enchilada. We told our waiter that the meal was incorrect and he said it would be replaced immediately! The correct meal NEVER ARRIVED! We ordered a pitcher of beer and although the glasses were chilled, the beer was warm! We do not believe this restaurant will be opened much longer, unfortunately, as Luna Loca's has been a staple in Danville for years and used to be very good. read more

My buddy arranged a dinner at Luna Loca for a party of twelve men to celebrate his 25th year of sobriety. We were easily accommodated in the outdoor patio. I was looking forward to eating at a restaurant I have not yet tried. Our server worked hard and replenished our chips and salsa and iced teas. Our order took some time to get to the table but unfortunately was not worth the wait. Everyone has an entree with rice and beans. My entree was a chicken chimichanga. The rice was dry and bland. The pinto beans were good. The chimichanga had no flavor whatsoever. Everyone seemed to feel the same about their meal. Overall my experience was three of five stars. read more

Food was bad. We got sick after eating. Tastes very inauthentic and not fresh whatsoever. Family member ended up losing his lunch after eating. Service is good, I guess. Wouldn't come here again, though. read more

Loca bad! Used to be great now.. just bad. Specifically, recent order of Chicken Fajitas had chicken plank like dry and tortilla shell soaked through with oil from saturated veggies, Carnitas burrito had my daughter spitting out knuckles and my fillet of sole was sans the fingerling potatoes, purported spinach called out in the dish and just an over floured/cooked clump. And all of this for a top tier pricing structure compared to peer group in Danny which serves great Mex. So done with LL and offer Diner Beware guidance read more

Food is not good. Rice is dry and bland. Beans tasted like they came from a can. Only thing tasty was the cheese on top of the wet burrito. Shredded chicken was also dry and bland. Do not recommend this dish until they fix the rice, chicken, and beans. read more

This was a happy coincidence, wandered in to this place on accident. Plenty of parking and a short wait. Pleasant atmosphere, wonderful friendly staff. Ordered seafood nachos,(outstanding) the fajitas were ordered by the next table and smelled so great we also ordered them. ( some of the best I've ever had) We were seated in the bar area and our service was amazing. Lia, the bartender was our server and made some delicious margaritas ! We had 4 different types and shared. Can't wait to return and try other things. read more

If I could give this place less stars I would. Five of us had bought into there Super Bowl party. $100 per person. That gave us unlimited margaritas and food. Upon arrival we were told ( by I assume the manager) they had no table for us to sit at. When we explained that we were part of there Super Bowl party, we were told they had no clue as to what we were talking about. We proceeded to sit at a table near the bar but only to be told we couldn't sit there because the owner reserved them for the Super Bowl party. Okay but we were just told that by the same guy that he had no clue about a party. We asked if we could sit around the other side of the restaurant to only he told that those tables were reserved as well. So now we are all standing there. When we asked where we "could" sit he said there was no tables. So he decided to push tables together in a part of the restaurant that I wouldn't let my dogs sit at. By this time we were trying to make a really bad situation better for us. We wanted to order food to be told the kitchen was closing in 15mins. I need to explain we were not the only people being told this. We knew the food that was being offered was not going to be done for at least a few hours. We ordered quickly. My son was at the bar getting a margarita to have the one of the wait staff walk up and hand him plates of food. They couldn't even deliver it to our table. Or wouldn't. No one ever came to clear the table. This is honestly the worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant. This restaurant had multiple football pools going on. Unfortunately at the end of the game people were told to come back in two to three days to collect there money because the owner left. If there is one thing that I can say was pleasant was the two bartenders Melissa and Ruby. They were very nice. read more

Ordered their food from DoorDash last night. They missed one of our entrées. And the food was only okay... definitely not the best Mexican food in Danville. We ordered the taquito appetizer and they were overcooked, dry and burned. I don't think I'll be ordering from them again. I have eaten at the restaurant before and had better food. I'm not sure if they just took shortcuts because it was a DoorDash order. Very disappointing! read more

Great restaurant, service, and food. We had a birthday party for my niece and they even brought out complementary ice cream. It was very nice experience. read more

Tonight was my first time here as I'm a long time loyal customer of Los Panchos. Decided to sit at the bar for dinner rather than take a small booth in the back. Was warmly greeted by the courteous & pleasant female bartender who quickly took my order. Wish I could say the same for the kitchen staff. While the bartender made every effort to check on my meal, having to wait almost 45 minutes for a simple combination plate was just unacceptable. As for the food, the crispy taco was extremely small & tasted rather bland; the chicken tamale faired a bit better. The rice & beans were just that, fair, if that. All in all, other than the pleasant & courteous bartender, Los Panchos doesn't have anything to worry about. I'll remain loyal... read more

I so want to give this place the full five stars but I really can't. First time I came here in person, I ordered the Chicken Sixty-Three with a side of guacamole. The second time I came here, which was earlier tonight, I ordered their chili Colorado with a side of guacamole. Both times their food was pretty good. Their service was really friendly too. Ambiance wise, it's mildly noisy. There's a restaurant side and a bar side. But with people talking, it's not the quietist place to be, but neither is it the loudest. So the -1 star? Both times I ordered guacamole and both times they were forgotten. The first time, I had to flag down my waiter to remind them they forgot the guacamole. Earlier tonight, I gave up on it entirely and told my waiter to take it out from the check. I'm not entirely sure how this has happened twice? The check literally said "add guacamole" and it was forgotten. I swear if I didn't mention it to the waiter, I'd be getting a check with the guacamole price included while not getting it. So definitely check that your order is correct and if not, don't hesitate to tell them. I wish the kitchen was more attentive to make sure not to miss things... read more

I had such a great experience here celebrating a family birthday! The ambiance was lively and authentic--it truly had a warm, family-owned feel. Joanna was an incredibly polite and attentive server, and our food came out quickly. I ordered the chicken burrito, and the portion was generous and absolutely delicious. The nachos were amazing as well. We were started off with fresh salsas, and you could tell the chips were freshly made--hot and perfectly crisp. Highly recommend! read more

The best part about Luna Loca? Leaving. Hands down, this was the worst dining experience I've ever had. We were in town for a large event, which included a $25 lunch voucher, per person, for this restaurant. My wife and I--along with several friends--decided to give it a try, assuming it would be at least halfway decent. That was a mistake. We waited over an hour just to get in. Understandable, perhaps, given the crowd. But then we waited another hour just to get our food. Our server, who was clearly overwhelmed, did her best and wasn't the issue--she even corrected our missing sides promptly. Still, the food was awful: cold beans, cold salsa, cold rice, and a flavorless burrito. Ironically, our server warned us the plates were hot. They weren't. Not even close. We barely touched our meals and decided not to finish. When it came time to pay with our vouchers, things got worse. The manager--or owner--refused to accept our friends' digital ticket, insisting on a printed version for reimbursement purposes. He was rude and dismissive, refusing even to accept an emailed copy. Our friends had to run back to the event organizers just to get a paper version. Then came the bill: $118 for two burritos (at $17.95 each) and two beers. Seriously? I told my friend to just hand over the two $25 vouchers and walk away, but being the good guy he is, he paid the extra $18. To top it all off, I passed by the kitchen on the way to the restroom and saw staff yelling at this same manager--clearly tensions were high even among employees. Bottom line: it was obvious the manager didn't bother to bring in extra help for the event. He looked lost and completely in over his head. So if you're looking for long waits, cold food, rude management, and poor planning--Luna Loca is your place. Otherwise, avoid it at all costs. read more

I come through Danville a few times a year, and my last two stops Here included dinner at Luna Loca. I sat at the bar both times, and had stellar service! Cocktails and food were excellent. The female bartender was there on both my visits, and she was very friendly and attentive. Great food! read more

DISCLAIMER - We live about 500 yards from this place and have always just used it for beer and chips. Which are really good. Then some friends recommended TRIVIA NIGHT!! on Wednesday's at 7:00PM. We had a blast!! The food has actually improved over the years, I ordered the fish tacos and they were light flaky and perfectly nestled in a soft tortilla with cabbage and lime. The rice and beans were also really good! But trivia night was outstanding. No prizes other than bragging rights for a week, but the MC was a funny and with it kinda guy! The competition was fierce but we held our own. We'll be back!! read more

Luna Loca - Fish Tacos - Mexican Near Me - Danville, California

After years/decades of coming here, we are done. The older gentleman who is the host/manager is a very unkind human. When I came to pick up my order I asked them to check the order before I left and they didn't. Got home and didn't have everything we ordered. Called and was passed to two different managers 4 times. Not a joke. I don't need to go into the phone call. We are also over the lack of "more expensive" food ingredients being included in the meals. The amount of meat that comes with the meals is minimal. We want to support local restaurants, but also feel that we should not be taken advantage of or treated like complete crap. read more

Ordered the one and two combination meal. Tasted okay. Black bean was too salty .saving grace are the chips-generous refills and salsas read more

It had been a long time ago since my last visit. Friends wanted to go and then play darts. The only good thing was playing darts. The food was awful, and the furniture is very tired. Temperature of the food was lukewarm, taste unauthentic, amd ingredients tasted cheap. Even the chips were stale. No interest in ever returning. There are plenty of places with much better food. read more

We just started going to Luna for cocktails after golf. My wife and I each order a Kettle soda. However, my wife asked for a small splash of cranberry. When I reviewed the bill, they charged me an additional $1.35 per splash. Nothing I hate more than being nickel & dimed for no reason. I have never ever been charged like that for a splash (less than an ounce). I brought it to the attention of the owner and he blamed Trump for the increase. What a POS. He obviously doesn't care about his patrons. Won't be back. read more

This place has truly excellent dishes and great service. There's even off the menu dishes that are available. Very nice ambience with a game room that the kids can enjoy. It's also a great place to watch sports. It is not a hole in the wall type place. Rather a place to sit down and enjoy the food. I'm surprised to see some of these negative reviews and wonder if yelp is screening out the good ones. I could not more highly recommend a Mexican restaurant read more

We had a group of 32 people which has to be difficult for a restaurant. Luna Loca handled it beautifully. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. read more

Ate here on our way out of town and heading back home. We wanted a place where we could watch Sunday NFL. It was casual and laid back which was perfect for us! Chips and salsa were very good and the server was very pleasant. I had a vegetable burrito and my son had a pork burrito. He liked his and I'd call mine ok. If we were ever back in the area, I'd probably give another place a try before I came back to this one, but I also wouldn't avoid altogether. Good, not great! read more

There is a reason we had not been back to this restaurant for the last 10 years. The food is gross, it does not look appetizing. The beans are dry, the rice is dry and the tortilla on the shrimp taco was a grease ball that fell apart. Bottom line, expensive and nasty. Too bad because the location is very nice. read more

Luna Loca, Danville: 22 Feb 2022 Our original plan went bust - so we settled for this eatery in Danville. There were 6 of us and we each ordered something a little different - but we all had rice & beans. The plates arrived at our table piping hot but the food was cold. The rice was not properly cooked - it tasted crunchy. The beans were okay. The tortilla was near raw. My order: Seafood (crab and prawns, flour tortilla with cream sauce, rice and beans, sliced avocados.): Good flavours on the crab but the prawns were under-seasoned and the fish smelled fishy. We decided not to taste our dining companion's orders because we all felt the same about the taste and texture. Great service by Lalo - but some of us may not return to this eatery. read more

Luna Loca - 2022 Feb 22 - Mexican Near Me - Danville, California

Please for the love of god turn off your heavy metal music! Read the clientele. 70's music would be more appropriate. I had the fajitas and they weren't good. Dry chicken and goopy. Hardly any beans. No cheese. They were awful! I usually only order a veggie tostada and I guess I'll go back to that if I ever go again. read more

Loved the location and ambiance but the carnitas tostada was terrible. The lettuce was all wilty, peppers over cooked, carnitas was in big chunks. Seemed like the cook should have put the hot beans and meat on the bottom and fresh lettuce on top. Their $25 Cadillac Margarita was the most expensive margarita I have ever had. The service was great. read more

My wife and I have frequented Luna Loca for the past 14 months for our Mexican food cravings. We ate at Luna Loca at least 2 times per month and sometimes once a week. We found the food to be good, the portions to be adequate, the price to be fair, and the atmosphere to be pleasant. We would often grab a Margarita or 2 and enjoy some appetizers such as guacamole, nachos, and casadillas. The casadilla were 2 large tortillas with cheese and whatever else added and it was a very nice appetizer. The casadillas were sliced into 6 pieces. The nachos were a full plate of chips, beans, cheese and whatever else added, and it was filling if one didn't want a full Mexican dinner. One had the option of a 1/2 or full order of nachos. The guacamole side dish was decent in size too, and was available in 1/2 and full order. All was well until about a month ago when we noticed the portions suddenly became smaller. The casadilla was now a single tortilla folded in half with obviously half the cheese, meat, or chicken. The casadillas were now sliced into 3 pieces. The "full nachos" plate is now equivalent to the old 1/2 size nachos order. The full side of guacamole is now about the old 1/2 order size. Last night my wife and I went to Luna Loca to enjoy the "Happy Hour". Happy order as stated on the Luna Loca website is from 3pm to 6pm Monday through Friday with "NO" restrictions shown such as holidays, ect. We arrived at Luna Loca little after 5pm, ordered the Happy Hour appetizers with what we thought were "house margaritas". We told the waiter we were specifically there for the Happy Hour and asked him to make sure he stopped by our bar table before 6pm for another Happy Hour margarita. We then ordered 2 blended strawberry margaritas (without a tequila upgrade) and some appetizers. Prior to 6pm we ordered 2 more blended strawberry margaritas from our server. When the check came, I noticed we were charged $12 for the Happy Hour $7 margaritas and were charged the Happy Hour price for our appetizers. Our server was elusive so I brought this price discrepancy to the attention of the older Latin male host who I assume is the manager or owner of Luna Loca. Keep in mind this person is not friendly or customer oriented whatsoever and has a cavalier attitude like he is doing his patrons a favor for being there. He looks at the check and then tells me Happy Hour does not apply to "Holidays". I asked him what holiday was it stating it was not a National or State holiday as banks, government offices, and the Post Office was open. I also asked him where does it show anywhere on the Happy Hour menu that holidays were excluded. Yes it was Valentine's Day, but I don't recall that is anything other than a Romantic Day. I also did not see a single sign, heart, or anything that related to Valentine's Day in Luna Loca. When the older Latin male heard me state the above, he replied that the strawberry margaritas were not "house margaritas"!! I watched the bartender poor the tequila into the blender and it was "house tequila'!! The only additive was a bit of strawberry mixer. At no time did our server tell us that strawberry margaritas were NOT part of the Happy Hour even though we specifically told him we we there for the Happy Hour. The older Latin male then said, "I don't know what kind of day you are having", and handed me the same check without adjustment! I can honestly say that my wife and I have spent at least $1500 at Luna Loca in the past 14 months and most likely closer to $2000. The older Latin man has seen us there on numerous occasions and knows who we are, as he is ALWAYS staring at my beautiful wife. Nevertheless, I find it incredible that for a simple matter of honoring what is written in the Luna Loca Happy Hour policy along with the diminished appetizer portions will keep us from EVER returning to Luna Loca to eat or drink. Personally, if the older Latin man is not the owner, I think it would behoove the owner to fire this person and save his business. Look at the recent negative reviews about the marginal food, lack of service, and the rudeness of the older male host to solidify my suggestion. read more

Luna Loca - As shown on the Luna Loca website. - Mexican Near Me - Danville, California

Review is for Doordash takeout during Bay Area SIP: Danville has two newly opened, upscale Mexican restaurants in Cielito and Cocina Hermanas. Unfortunately, both were closed for lunch takeout during the 2020 COVID-19 version of Cinco de Mayo. To satisfy our Mexican food craving, we used Doordash for Luna Loca, which is an older, established Danville Mexican restaurant. The food is solid, albeit slightly on the pricier side. 3 stars overall. * Our favorite dish was the carnitas plate. Generous portions of seasoned and moist shredded pork that can accommodate lunch and dinner. It wasn't overly salty nor oily either, so 4 stars. * Chili Verdes is one of my favorite Mexican pork preparations. Luna Loca's version is decent, though I would prefer a more tender pork texture. Ideally the pork should be shreddable by fork and nearly melt-in-mouth with that excellent green chili sauce. 3 stars. * Chicken Quesadilla was on the thicker side, and served with generous portions of chicken that was seasoned. I prefer thinner quesadillas with a bit more searing, which not only adds a crispy texture but also a nice caramelized flavor too, especially on the cheese. This dish was still good after microwaving for dinner. 3 stars. read more

We had a wonderful experience at Luna Loca-they saved my father in law's 90th birthday celebration. They took our party at the last minute due to the family who was hosting being sick. The manager and our waitress were so attentive and kind. They made sure my f-i-l and m-i-l were cared for and happy. We brought a cake that they graciously took care of and served. All of us were very happy with our order-food and drinks, and the green salsa was a favorite. We had a great time, great service and food. We are loyal Luna Loca customers now! read more

Nice people. Decent bar. Food all tastes like tortillas and bland beans. Not recommended.

We have been a frequent customer for many years. Unfortunately the last few times it is apparent that things are changing at Luna. The food quality is definitely not what it used to be. I really hope that they can get back to the quality that we were all used to. Unfortunately we will not be back to find out. read more
