Luna Park Description:
The sister restaurant to Luna Park in San Francisco continues a successful run in a roomy, high-ceilinged space on La Brea that proved unlucky for its previous occupants, including ventures from prominent chefs. A large bar occupies one side of the restaurant; you can choose to sit at a table or in the private booths (where you can close the drapes) to enjoy the California bistro-style fare, which is always fun. The noisy, dark setting---crystal chandeliers dress up an inviting, casual scene---draws a young clientele for the lively bar scene and a value-oriented menu of old standards with occasional twists and turns. One can start with the warm goat cheese fondue, moules frites or the grilled artichoke with lemon aïoli, followed by a flat-iron steak with salsa verde or country-fried trout. And pizzas have been added to the comfort food selections (try the Moroccan meatball pie or the Magic Mushroom, with Brie and truffle crème fraîche). Desserts---which include "interactive" items like make-your-own s'mores---can be on the heavy side. For drinks, Luna Park offers everything from a can of Pabst Blue Ribbon, the quintessential working man's brew, to some killer retro cocktails, paper umbrella and all.
