NEWS:
We have added an “event + dinner reservation” - which secures our clients a 5:30PM table (very limited). This ticket does NOT include dinner but allows you to hold a table and order from the menu, or you can select the "$55 LearnAboutWine 3 course prefix menu!"
Dinner is additional and paid to the restaurant the night of. We are hoping to help our guests reserve a table as this restaurant SELLS OUT and this helps Lunetta make you happy - one of Santa Monica’s Go-To spots. Chef Raphael Lunetta has been friends with Ian for over 25 years and you will love him, too.
Wines are tasted 3 wines at a time. 21 Champagnes when sold out at 21 people. Fewer people? Larger pours of fewer wines - we open one bottle per person.

Lunetta serves great food paired with locally roasted coffee options, classic cocktails, large selection of craft beer and delicious wines that we enjoy drinking with our family & friends.
People matter most, seasonal makes sense, authenticity rules, quality governs, deliciousness is undeniable, pretense is absurd, comfort feels good, fun tastes better, teamwork and pride sustain it all.
We buy the freshest ingredients we can find. We cook seasonally because that’s what is fresh and best. We support local farmers and businesses whenever we can, because the best flavor naturally follows.
Menus for Lunetta are locally sourced and responsibly grown, using seasonal ingredients based on the abundant product available on the California Coast. Food is served either as separate items for each guest or family style to share amongst everyone at your table. Our full bar features classic as well as craft cocktails using the finest in artisan spirits, mixers and seasonal fruits and vegetables. Our comprehensive wine list highlights small California producers and artisan winemakers from around the world.
OUR POLICY
All tickets are non-refundable. We can adjust your menu for dietary needs up to 72 hours prior without any additional cost. Wines can change without notice, failure or corked wine at the dinner does not result in any type of credit or refund. We open one bottle minimum per paying guest, and can reduce the total number of bottles being opened so that the dinner does not have to cancel should ticket sales not reach the minimum. Fewer bottles / larger pours - you will get the same quantity of wine and we always open the best wines for the quality of the event. Cancellation due to illness is not allowed, you may however take food to go - or assign your seat to someone else without fee. The perishable nature of our product requires no cancellation, no credit, no refunds for any reason.
*Ticket price is not inclusive of gratuity which we encourage 15 to 20% based on the quality of your experience paid in cash or use of Venmo, PayPal Zelle or other cash related app.
