Testimonials

On 8/26/2025 Derrik Abell had this to say:
Great food, accommodating staff, good atmosphere.

On 8/19/2025 Gavin Thomas had this to say:
La Luna Mexican Restaurant is located in a strip mall opposite Walgreens on the NE corner of Kingshighway and Independence in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. They provide what I consider the standard menu of Mexican style dishes such as Burritos, Fajitas and Quesadilla. They have friendly staff and provide good value. The building doesn't have much atmosphere, but the food is delivered quickly and the service is good. Often I see larger groups of friends and work associates using this for a speedy and affordable lunch location. They often run lunchtime and evening specials so ask about those. There are several Mexican style restaurants around the town and this is one of my lunchtime favorites.
