LUNE Dennis Reviews
Made a reservation for 6 pm.
When we got to the restaurant, they said it was at 6:30 pm. I confirmed with Open Table that it was indeed for 6pm. After the co-owner told us our reservation was incorrect, maybe go to get drinks somewhere else. I received an email from Open Table saying it was "changed" to 6:30 pm, then to 6:45 pm. So we went somewhere else and spent $30 on drinks. We got there and told the co-owner said "it wasn't me who changed it" and "we will make it up to you". We were seated at a counter, rather than a table - I made the reservations 60 days in advance!. No one did anything to "make it up to us" , they never acknowledged their mistake and never did anything to "make it up to us". Food was OK, everything was very salty, and for 2 people, a 20% tip was added. I understand that tips are important but with their mistake, not a great table, and nothing to apologize for, and sorry, mediocre food, for $187 for 2 with a tip, it was very disappointing.
Very Disappointing, Bad Management and Unappreciated Hostess

Not including some of the best freshly harvested scallops
Not including some of the best freshly harvested scallops or oysters, this is the best meal I have had in 20+ years on Cape Cod. Lune did get a James Beard nomination - which I think is very well deserved. We came for the ala carte menu on Sundays. We had gnocchi and halibut for the large plates. My wife never eats gnocchi, but really loved it at Lune. The halibut came with some sort of corn side. It was well flavored and the corn was quite sweet. We also had a small plate of a "compressed" melon salad. This was very good as well, although possibly the weakest item we had. And their bread is phenomenal. The wine list is interesting, and seems fairly, but not inexpensively, priced. The service was very good, attentive but not intrusive. We sat at the counter and was able to watch dishes we regretted not ordering being prepared. This is a very small dining area, with perhaps 8 counter seats and perhaps 8 additional well spaced tables. This is a great addition to the Cape - I tend to think they will want to find a larger place given how hard it is to book now.
Get the biscuit.
Service was great. Atmosphere was great. Prices were reasonable for such a quality restaurant.
Outstanding!!!! Best service I've had in a restaurant in
Outstanding!!!! Best service I've had in a restaurant in years. Food is fresh and delicious. It's a must try.
We dined on a Sunday and the menu that night was a la
We dined on a Sunday and the menu that night was a la carte, so we were able to choose our items rather than the chef's menu served on other nights. We ordered several starters and one entrée. Here's what we ordered for shared plates: Homemade Sourdough Bread, marinated olives, Brewster oysters, cucumber salad, tinned fish (little neck clams), and stuffed squash blossom. For our entrée we shared the Gnocchi. Everything was amazing and prepared perfectly. Of particular note was the oysters, which had a delicious marinade on them. We ordered more of those! The tinned little neck clams, made by Island Creek in Duxbury, were also delicious and a good choice to add to their menu despite it not being made on site.
WELL WORTH THE WAIT!
Had to wait awhile for a reservation but boy, was it worth it!! Last night at LUNE ws one of the best dining experiences I have ever had - and I consider myself a big time foodie! EVERY SINGLE bite was beyond description. Such culinary talent we have right here on little ol' Cape Cod!!
The best restaurant in the area
Lune is amazing! Every restaurant tries to be unique and delicious, but it’s hard to be both at the same time. Lune succeeds brilliantly. Our meal was so good, I was stunned. I cannot recommend this restaurant enough!
I was torn between 3 and 4 for the restaurant.
I had high expectations going in and felt that it did not meet my expectations. The food was good but not fantastic. The waitstaff was very nice and professional.
I can't say enough good things about Lune.
The food, the ambiance, and the service were all absolutely perfect. From the moment I took my first sip of the beautifully rich mushroom consommé when sitting down I knew just how much this team cares about providing a 5 star experience. Every wine pairing was perfectly matched. I enjoyed every single glass. I can't wait for my next chance to dine at Lune.
Forget simple "Gem," this is the Dazzling Diamond of the Dining Diadem on the Cape!
WOW! This beautifully refashioned former gas station with open kitchen provides the perfect combination of casual and intentional. From the super -warm welcome of the ripped denim-clad hostess to the professional and friendly waitstaff to the Michelin star-worthy cuisine, the dining experience is in a category by itself. The tuna crudo was positively magical and the morel tartine exquisite while the duck the best I've ever had and the moules mariniere bowl-slurpingly delicious! Reservation was easy on Open Table. Compliments to the young chefs! Their divine dishes are creatively crafted and beautifully plated. Our waitstaff, "niece" (sp?), was super knowledgeable, open and enthusiastic, and hovered without being intrusive. We'd try to ask for her the next time. And we can't wait for the next time (after "the Season").
Amazing food and lovely little restaurant! We had heard all
Amazing food and lovely little restaurant! We had heard all the hype but Lune met and exceeded our expectations. We went on a Sunday so "à la carte" (no tasting menu that night) but our appetizers and entrees were delicious nonetheless - inventive, carefully presented and just delicious. We were greeted as we were driving into the parking area and told where we could park. Our server was delightful, friendly and very helpful. We chose some dish options that we were told were not often served as part of the tasting menu. The confit halibut with rhubarb compote and duck breast with frites were delicious, as were our appetizers (foie gras tarte, boeuf tartare and asparagus with poached egg). Almond tarte for dessert was also very yummy :) We are looking forward to our next visit, hopefully for the tasting menu!
Just as good - maybe better - than the buzz
There’s been lots of buzz about this new little spot in Dennisport, and it didn’t disappoint. We shared light and airy focaccia with a beautiful salted butter; a chanterelle tartane and a foie gras tart - all scrumptious and beautifully plated. For entrees we had duck and halibut- each praise worthy. Deserts were yummy too - a fun Dixiecup Sunday and almond torte. Can’t wait to go back for the tasting menu! Our only complaint is that it’s tough to get a reservation.
Cape Cod gem
This little place is an absolute gem. The food is remarkable...creative,nuanced and so delicious. The wine pairings are genius...different and unusual but perfect with the menu. The service is friendly,professional and personable. We had a delightful evening and look forward to returning. The only thing missing is a Michelin star!
Coming from culinary meccas like Austin, Texas and Boston,
Coming from culinary meccas like Austin, Texas and Boston, MA, I was incredibly excited to walk in to Lune the day I did and meet the owners. A young couple from Cape Cod that has traveled and worked together under some world-class establishments, they opened Lune together in summer of 2024 just a few blocks from our summer home. The menu is magnificent; you will not have any idea what you're eating until you arrive (as I think it should be, it's a tasting menu). You are not coming to Lune to just eat, you're coming here to experience. Mick and Charlotte (owners) go out of their way to make any experience there personal, profound, and unlike any other you will find on Cape; they are bringing something to Dennis Port that I don't believe has ever been here before, and I think it is being incredibly well-received. Come ready for a long dinner with friends (or go to make new ones), the space is intimate, the service is impeccable, and the food is superb. Hands down the best dinner I have had on Cape Cod. Looking forward to coming back in 2025 for next season! Great job, guys!
My friends and I had a beautiful time at Lune! We came for
My friends and I had a beautiful time at Lune! We came for the 6 pm seating and made a reservation in advances. The restaurant is small, but has a homey feel. The main hostess and chef are husband and wife! They created their own menus with fresh ingredients from their garden and the cape. Pacing for 6-7 course meal was fantastic all throughout. My favorite dishes were the scallops and the tartlet. The dessert was also super unique! Overall, I left satiated and satisfied. Highly recommend for a nice meal in Dennis Port!
Connect with users posting reservations for LUNE Dennis
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with LUNE Dennis. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to LUNE Dennis at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the LUNE Dennis page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* ElaborateHouse74, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* ElaborateHouse74 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to ElaborateHouse74 for any questions Peter may have as ElaborateHouse74 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* ElaborateHouse74 now uses their connections at LUNE Dennis to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If ElaborateHouse74 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, ElaborateHouse74 receives the $200 reward which is credited to ElaborateHouse74's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at LUNE Dennis!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
