We live in Pontremoli and had wanted to try La Luna for some time having read good reviews, so had booked a table for last night. We duly arrived, eventually were shown to our table by a charmless waitress, where we sat, and sat, and sat. No one offered us anything at all, not a drink no menus, nothing, in spite of staff hurrying backwards and forwards, we could catch no-oneâs attention. We were ignored for roughly 20 minutes, as were one other couple opposite us, until eventually the lady who had shown us to our table came and asked us whether we wanted still or sparkling water. We said that we would like to order some wine and asked for menus. We were told in no uncertain terms that wine could only be ordered after we had ordered food, so water and menus were then both brought. At this point we were already on the verge of walking out having waited so long and with such grumpy service, but we studied the menus, and waited, and waited some more, until after at least another 10 minutes had passed and still no-one had taken our order, we overpaid for the water leaving money on the table and left. A thoroughly awful experience!! Happily we walked around the corner to another little restaurant slightly off the beaten track, behind the old theatre in the Piazza S. Christina. This is the Osteria Caveau del Teatro Relais, where we had a truly excellent meal in a charming old building, served by a a delightful owner who more than made up for the previous unpleasant experience. We will not be returning to La Luna.Buonasera Signor Lett,è più che evidente che lei non era animato da curiosità od interesse per il nostro locale. Pur vivendo a Pontremoli, come dice, pur avendo letto le recensioni, se è vero, lei non ha tollerato niente, ha solamente esagerato esagerato esagerato nel descrivere una situazione 'normale' per un'osteria. Sonia è gentilissima, garbata e sorridente, e nel giro di pochi minuti lei sarebbe stato servito, o forse voleva che tutte le altre persone sparissero, oppure lei si ritiene più importante di tutti? Ha parlato di tempi biblici, di scortesia, e ha fatto un bello spot pubblicitario a favore di un collega. Non si prenda il disturbo di tornare e saremo tutti più felici, mi creda.

A busy place and for good reason. We had an excellent dinner here. My wife ordred a primo piatto of Tagliatelle with funghi. I ordered the local specialty Testaroli with funghi. Both were outstanding! For a secondo piatto we split an order of coniglio (stewed rabbit). With a half litre of rosso and acqua frizzante, only 47 euro. The people here were very friendly and treat you like a local. Service was great and the atmosphere was rustic romantic. The cook took the time to wave to us as we left. Pontremoli is such a nice village.

It's a quaint little place indeed, down an alley and an archway, with a couple rooms and many tables, busy to a surprising degree, with hindsight at least.The outside view of the river is nice, if only available when it's warm enough to eat outside.Walls are all covered with flattering remarks from travelers. They must have had better food, or goodwill.Our lunch was beyond homely, down to plain dull.One acceptable first course, typical "testaroli" pasta from the region, was OK but in a small serving. The other, vegetable soup, felt like straight out of a freezer, or a hospital canteen.One second course was stuffed cabbage leaves, nicely bitter if a bit greasy, with an egg and vegetable filling. Ok, again, while the other, roasted veal with mushrooms, was as dull as it gets.We would have been happy if this were a set working lunch menu. In Milan, where we come from, this would cost you 12-15 Euro per person. Here, with two 3/4 liter bottles of water, we paid 18 each. Had they shown a menu with prices in advance, we would have paid and left after the first course, just like our smarter German neighbours did.Service is nice, mind you, friendly and appropriate if informal, and fast. Would be perfect if they either showed prices, or charged you much less.
