Lunette Cambodia

San Francisco Ferry Building

Led by James Beard-nominated Chef Nite Yun (featured on Netflix’s Chef’s Table), Lunette celebrates the “golden era” of Cambodian culture through vibrant, authentic flavors and bold design. Chef Yun, born in a Thai refugee camp and raised in the Bay Area, has transformed her journey into a cultural and culinary masterpiece.

“The concept for the mural pulls in influences from Phnom Penh’s hand painted signs, art deco, French impressionism, and Indian truck art.”

-Nak Bou, Artist

Cambodian street life meets 1950s vintage diner

The design concept features a striking collage of variegated turquoise tiles at the counter, a stunning mural by local artist @nakbou, and retro-diner furnishings with custom lighting by @metrolightingca.

The restaurant façade fully opens to the pedestrian promenade, evoking the energy of a Cambodian night market while creating an inviting indoor-outdoor dining experience. Lunette is a nostalgic yet modern celebration of food, culture, and community.
