Lunetta - by bloomspot Staff Writers

Lunetta welcomes all who share a love of Italian food and wine made with high-quality ingredients and prepared with passion. Step into Lunetta—Italian for “little moon”—from bustling Smith Street in Boerum Hill and find your Italian heaven in house-cured meats, the finest local artisanal and Italian imported cheeses, savory pastas, and decadent desserts.

Lunetta’s sconce-lit dining room is a study in rich shades of scarlet, with cozy banquettes that invite diners to slow down, relax, and savor every bite. An intimate bar overlooks the chefs in action in the open kitchen, where raw ingredients are chopped, grilled, and combined into an array of traditional dishes. Chef Adam Shepard’s menu incorporates fresh meat, dairy, and produce sourced from local, natural, and organic farms, accompanied by a well-edited list of wines from across Italy.

The Chef’s Selection of Formaggi and Salumi—which often includes Lunetta’s house-made pancetta, finocchiona, and sopressata—is a mouthwatering mix of meats and cheeses that is perfect for sharing and pairing with any of Lunetta’s 15 wines by the glass. The perfect platter for two, enjoy this specially selected collection of meats and cheeses, paired with a glass of wine to complement both. For a rare summer treat, dine beneath the moon and stars in Lunetta’s lush garden, surrounded by towering bamboo plants and gently flickering lights.
