Bar Luna
"Luna is a modern cantina-style restaurant featuring a fusion of Tex-Mex and authentic Mexican comfort food with an upmarket twist along with creative cocktails. Something that drew us to our location in downtown Nanaimo is that it is a beautiful, old fire hall and one of the most historic buildings in the city. Our goal is for guests to come in to have tastings of the variety of unique flavours that we offer in our menu choices. We offer gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan options."

Some of the best Mexican food I've ever had. Really cool location as well, we dined in & the building is historical & unique. Nice view out the windows, nice decorations. Our server was very friendly and gave us some great recommendations around the area, as we were visiting Nanaimo for one night only. Definitely recommend checking this place out. The margaritas were great as well!
Very beautiful old building. Tacos were generally very delicious but some were hit and miss. The magic mushroom very yummy, the tofu vegan one not so much..very salty. I really like the soft corn taco, but the crispy taco were a bit greasy. The mango desert was really good as were the churos. Over all it was good and would recommend.
Feeling blue? Bar Luna has the answer to all your woes, with tacos and handhelds of the food in a blanket variety, I had the al pastor pork tacos with their spiciest offerings of in house hot sauce hot enough to melt the tastebuds right off your tongue! washed down with the Blue Island Iced Tea with edible candied orange slice! The perfect spot, nestled away in the quiet corners of Nanaimo BC 10/10 would recommend to anyone in the area, looking for a classy, comfortable, warm and inviting environment with all the tasty tacos and fixings for a spice aficionado like myself!
The best meal we had in Nanaimo and the tastiest Mexican I’ve had in years growing up in So Cal I’ve had a lot. The ceviche is unique and flavorful. The salsa trio with guacamole is fantastic…plus the chips are warm. The cocktails are creative and yummy! Hibiscus sour, mezcal margarita and mezcal paperplane were enjoyed. We had barbacoa, carnitas, and mushroom tacos. They were all out of this world! The churros are a perfect way to end a perfect meal. The bartender is from New Zealand and he was delightful to chat with and provided perfect service.
I ordered the $12.99 Salsa Tasting & Lime Chips, $7.99 Pollo El Carbon soft taco, and $7.50 Pescado soft taco through Door Dash for Cinco Del Mayo. The salsas were flavourful and fresh. The chips although crispy, did not have a taste of lime. The chips were warm on arrival. Overall lovely flavored salsas but will not recommend due to the cost. Pescado ST - delicious but mushy, likely due to it being delivered. I expect if you ordered this in-house it would have a better texture than in a delivery situation. Would order again, if in the restaurant. Pollo El Carbon ST - Winner of the night. This was like a flavour bomb. Chicken was tender and cooked to perfection. Toppings were fresh and added the fireworks to the taste. Yes, I'd order it again. I should add that the two soft tacos were very filling, each contained lots of protein and toppings. I was happily satisfied with the food.
I’m SO happy to find a new home. I moved here from the Sunshine Coast and thought I’d never find something as good as Lunitas, but here it is! Amazing Mexican food with delicious drinks! Fabulous staff and service. Thank you so much Gabby and Davina sorry if I spelled that wrong. We WILL be back!!!
Wow! Wonderful high quality Mexican dining in our city! I had three tacos which had flavours bouncing around on each bite. My wife had the soft burrito highly flavourful and very filling. The guacamole and chips were very yummy. Fresh, hot, & made to order tortilla chips. Awesome. The desert we had hit the spot, not too sweet but with great taste and classy presentation. Andy our server was very attentive. He gave us lots of great choices, very personable, respectful and helpful in guiding us to menu items that fit our needs. The only thing I would say about this restaurant is it has to have a bit more decor. It has only been open three months and it is very clean, organized and looks professional but I think it is missing that look that will create its unique identity and brand. Easy roadside parking, easy to find location, a Nanaimo historical building with great charm. But the food was outstanding so just go for the food. I would highly recommend this restaurant for you next evening out.
Amazing food ! Amazing drinks ! We sampled several dishes and were impressed with the quality and how delicious it was ! This will be on our regular rotation of restaurants we support in Nanaimo. I can’t wait to take out of town guests to show them this awesome spot! Don’t delay trying this place - it is fabulous, I want to go right now !
Lovely place! We didn't have a reservation on a busy Saturday but were seated right away at the high chairs near the windows with a wonderful view of the waterfront. The first thing our server asked us was if we had any allergies or dietary restrictions. We had the Luna Margherita and Mezcal Margherita which was rated highly in the reviews but it did not fully match our expectations. Moreover, they served it in regular glasses so we didn't feel like we were having margheritas! We ordered the Nachos to share and it was a big portion for two! Wonderful, creamy, garlicky guac and nachos made inhouse which were perfect - not too oily! Unfortunately we were too full and didn't get to try their tacos, will go back for sure. The servers were wonderful and kept coming back to see how we were doing. It's a nice, cozy place with not too much clutter and minimal decor.
It was a fun experience....size of the tacos took us by surprise....but the flavors, heat etc, were spot on... We will go back but try a different group of foods....Food: 4/5
