One of our favorite places to go. Food and service are always consistently top notch and the atmosphere is great. Their Aioli is a work of ART - it’s so good that I’ve been buying it in pint size containers to go. Michael is the absolute man for going out of his way to accommodate and hook me up.

It’s a rare treat to be able to be able to give five stars across the board, and even more of a treat to have the restaurant experience to merit it. Tonight’s dinner at Losanti met and exceeded all of my expectations. The West Coast oysters were very fresh and came with the most unbelievable homemade sauces, the kale salad is the best I have ever had (ask for a little hot sauce to add to taste, it’s spectacular), the truffle spaghetti was tender and rich, the strip steak was accompanied by a brilliant gold-raisin chimichurri, and the butter cake is absolutely to die for. Don’t skip a course; save up and a make a whole night of it. The best part, though, may have been the service. Our server, Kristan, and the manager, Michael, went out of their way to make us feel really special and taken care of. We ended up spending 2.5 hours here (nobody was waiting to take our table), and it was an evening unto itself. Highly recommend for a fancy dinner out!!

I chose this restaurant to celebrate my birthday. The ambiance, service, and food made for a great experience. Parking is a headache even though the restaurant is literally across from a parking garage. The garage is central to so many things that it is often full. I gave my food 4 stars because the kitchen ran out of garlic and didn't bother to let the waitress know. I was looking forward to that item as it was included with my steak. Also, they served my mother the tail end of the salmon which I know is a no no for a restaurant at this price point. Our waitress Rebecca was very accommodating and really made the evening even more enjoyable. They have this super cute system of bringing out your check in a reading book that you can autograph. I would recommend this restaurant to celebrate any occasion. FYI, my ribeye and gnocchi where perfection. :-)

Fantastic First Time! Losanti has it all!! Delicious Food, Beautiful Ambiance, and the best experience was from Becca, our bartender and food guide!! When she said they had the best burgers and dessert, she was 💯 The butter cake is generous, to be shared! We will definitely be back for the food and to see Becca!!🤩

We made reservations for 09/30. We specifically requested more private seating, and were given just that. The food was excellent. Not pictured, but we also tried the meatballs as an appetizer. Some of the best I’ve ever had. Appetizers and drinks were on the table in less than 15 minutes. And food was out within 20. Loved the ambiance as well and the service was excellent. Thank you to the crew working for helping make the night so special! We will definitely be back.

The perfect cozy winter experience. The food was top notch, and all made from scratch. The menu is diverse enough to suit anyone’s appetite. Whether you have dietary restrictions, don’t enjoy red meat, or if you are just in the mood for some warm pasta 🍝. The burrata is a need, not a want. We loved the truffle pasta, the salmon, swordfish, and steak with frites (there was like 3 whole potatoes on the plate lol) the star for me was the honeysuckle cocktail, and the burrata. The whole evening was a great experience thanks to our waitress who was an absolute jewel!💎

Nick was our server and he was fabulous! Food was incredible. We had oysters to start, then truffle pasta, 16oz ribeye, charred broccolini, and butter pie! Fantastic Italian wine, too. Can’t say enough about our food and experience. I can’t wait to go back!
