Cafe Luna

This is a neighborhood spot that serves American, Italian and vegetarian cuisine. Patrons can dine inside or outside, when the weather allows. Although it is not a vegetarian restaurant, you'll notice that they are generous with the vegetables -- a good thing for health-conscious diners.  There are half-priced specials for pizza, pasta and wine.They also have a build-your-own pasta menu feature that lets you be in control. However, control is not the name of the game here because the atmosphere is very relaxed.
