Best brunch I’ve ever had in Boston! The lobster Benedict is great!! Although the cinnamon roll looks just like cinnamon toast, it tastes amazing! It was so busy on Sunday so we can only seat at the bar. Would love to come here next time for the outdoor seats!

Before saying anything, I'd like to give a special shoutout to the kind man who asked us to call him "honey butter" who gave us 4 honey butter biscuits, 2 cinnamon rolls and lemon ricotta pancakes - all on the house - just because it was one of my suitemate's birthday. What a kind soul. I also can't stop complimenting this place. What delicious food! I ordered Joe's slider duo with chipotle chicken, bacon and scrambled eggs and my suitemate ordered the same but with chipotle chicken and corn beef hash and poached eggs. So filling and so savory. Toasted to perfection. You could see the golden yellow toasted side just gleaming right at you. My friend ordered the Belgian Double waffle with Nutella, strawberries and bananas and my other friend ordered it with chocolate, bananas and butter pecan. The best thing about these waffles was the richness and the freshness of the fruit. Strawberries were so ripe - they were fantastic! My other friend got the Raspberry stuffed French toast which I didn't personally taste but it looked really good and she said it was amazing and brought some back home. We also ordered a Lobster Roll Egg Benedict for the table and a side of Western Fries. Everything about that was amazing. The taste, the quality of the food and just the right amount of spices and salt. We are going back here again next Saturday and I can't wait!
A great place for a relaxing brunch especially after the long flight from Melbourne, Australia. The coffee and omelettes are great, and for the first time in my life I had a lobster omelette. This cafe deserves its reputation.

Esteemed friends and guests, please join me in congratulating Cafe Luna for winning my Best Brunch in the Boston Area Award. Considering the extent of my research, this is a much-coveted and highly-respected honor.
Can't decide between savory and sweet? Get Everything But the Kitchen Sink for a miraculous medley of sausage, waffles, corn beef hash, bacon, and home fries. This is brunch epitomized.
Want a New England take on a classic? The Lobster Eggs Benedict provides sweet chunks of crustacean under a delicately poached egg with asparagus and homefries.
Do you wish you could just eat dessert? The Nutella and Banana Stuffed French Toast will hit the spot with just a little less guilt than eating cake for breakfast.
And drink up! The chai is spicy-sweet, and in the fall the pumpkin latte stomps this staple at Starbucks.
But in all seriousness, trust me on this, people. I realize the enormity of my statement, but Cafe Luna just gets brunch. And I love them for it.
The place is tiny, so if you're looking to come without reservations on a weekend, try to keep your party small (which of your friends do you like the best?) and arrive just a few minutes before they open. Chances are, there will be others with the same idea, but using this method I've only ever had to wait a few minutes.
Cafe Luna, it is my honor to present you with this bacon-shaped trophy. Display it proudly, and brunch on.
Sunday brunch was very tasty but be ready to be crowded in. We practically shared a table with another couple and were constantly aware of the bustling aisle. Corned beef hash was excellent with two nicely poached eggs and side of grilled foccacia. The lemon - ricotta pancakes were airy but rich and topped with fresh berries and lemon curd. Total bill minus tip was $42 with two non-alcoholic drinks.
Cafe Luna is, indeed, a brunch mecca. I am still reminiscent of the Lobster Eggs Benedict; rich egg yolks soak chunks of succulent lobster and thick, crusty English muffins - divine. Don't be surprised to order a table-full; the goodies at the next table may be too tempting to resist!
Amazing brunch!. Four words: Lemon blueberry french toast.
The lemon makes everything tangy, and prevents the sweetness from overwhelming you, and the blueberries color the dish with a vivid purple, and add a soft texture that perfectly offsets the toast. Basically the best thing ever. I keep telling myself to order something else, because everything is wonderful, then I can't resist and I order the toast again.
It is obvious whenever you go to that place that the owner really cares about you, and about the food. It is clear that the restaurant is his baby. It makes for a really great atmosphere, and truly creative and wonderful food. It would be nice if there was more seating, however, particularly on Saturdays and Sundays. (But the fact that it is a completely overrun by people can be fun, too)
Fabulous. Great food and coffee, genuinely friendly and helpful staff, free music, and wireless to boot. What's not to like? The place fills up quickly, so go early.
Good place for lunch. Delicious paninis and quality service. The espresso is decent. It's a cool atmosphere when they have live music in the evening.
Cafe Luna is a modestly-sized joint just a few doors down from Toscanini’s, and they’ve got the basic “breakfast joint” menu down pat, with breakfast all day and a smaller lunch menu (aside from special events, they aren’t open for dinner). But there are two things that really grabbed my attention right away: the iced coffees, and several people ordering up various waffles and French toast covered with fresh berries.
Excellent service. Hash brown Benedict was really good. Heard a lot about the lemon ricotta pancake and I enjoyed it. Irish hard hot coffee hit the spot and the cappuccino was nice as well. Very very busy but relatively fast operation. Overall, great experience.
This place is amazing! I’ve gone here twice now for Brunch and it’s definitely worth the wait. Food and drinks are definitely good! Make sure to get the biscuits because they are amazing too! The menu at first glance is a lot but no matter what you choose it will be worth it.
Highly recommend!! Ordered a variety of dishes and was impressed with all! One thing to note is that the brunch menu has a different selection than normal which we didn’t realize. Despite this there are still plenty of options. Ordered two orders of the kitchen sink, ordered the French toast, and 2 egg breakfast. French toast and waffles had the perfect texture and was amazing. Would definitely return!!
This place is a go-to spot in Cambridge for brunch. They don’t take reservations so make sure you get there well in advance, because there will be a wait. I realized this past visit that their pancakes may be the best I’ve ever had. Great fluffy texture, great flavor, combined with tasty toppings. I’d recommend trying them, but if you’re not in the mood for a sweet brunch, they have some great savory options as well, such as corned beef hash and lobster egg dishes.
We had a large group and was able to sit outside. The food came after an average wait time. Most of my group enjoyed their meals. My food was tasty but I honestly thought it’d be better given all the hype.
Came here because it was nearby and had good reviews. So glad we did. Got here just before it opened and there was already a line. Luckily we got seated right away. Restaurant was clean, open, and bright. The service was good. The food was fantastic. I highly recommend getting the grilled honey butter biscuits. Also recommend the corned beef hash. If you are in Cambridge, definitely stop in for breakfast.
Mexican Churro French Toast is really good. It is not moist or oily as normal French toast, which is good for me.
Other dishes are also nice 😊😋 we are all enjoy.
Come early so you don’t have to wait too long. The queue can be long.
Been here a few times, always a great brunch place! Recommend a reservation for parties of more than two. I had the sweet potato & butternut squash omelet and a hibiscus punch mocktail. The omelet was excellent and i was offered ketchup and hot sauce to go with it. The server double checked if we had any allergies before taking our order back and offered a refill on coffee, but did not come by with water refills.
The hibiscus punch was interesting (it’s just a mixture of different juices). The smoked salmon egg benedict was very delicious. Everything tastes pretty good. The restaurant is usually busy and hectic especially during the weekend. They ended up splitting the bill incorrectly for us.
Incredible place for brunch, ALWAYS busy (for a reason), so booking well in advance is a must. They have so many delicious plates that it’s difficult to choose only one! Really big size of plates - come hungry! Outstanding service as well.
