    We love La Luna Bakery Panaderia. Not just a bakery but they serve awesome food as well!We are new to Canton, GA. We moved here from the Seattle, WA area and we LOVE Mexican food. Especially Street / food truck tacos. We were in search for great beef tacos.The tacos at la Luna are amazing. Just what we were In search for. We order the carne asada tacos as well as the pork tacos and they are so good. We like the rice and beans and the tamales as well.The gentleman who runs this place is super friendly, welcoming and helpful. We eat here now probably about two to three times a week LOL.there cream cheese and pineapple pastries are also really really good and our daughter's favorite!Our kiddos, 9 years and 6 years also let their food. La Luna is cash only. Just go up to the counter, ring the bell, place your order set blacks eat then pay when you are finished with your meal.La Luna is a great place for quick bite to eat or breakfast, lunch or dinner! I believe they're open six days a week and close at 6 p.m. so get there before then so you don't missed out on all the fantastic food! :)

    Oh my word!!!! By far the best authentic taco pastor ever!!!!! Including my visits to Mexico. The beef was so tender and seasoned perfectly. Also the banana wrapped tamale was the tastiest ever. This hidden family owned gem is a must visit.
