    Amazing first time at Losanti. Our server Izzy, was fantastic. She asked questions, gave great recommendations, and checked in on us throughout our time there. Highly recommend this restaurant for special occasion, girls night out, date night or even just treating yourself to a great meal. Also, the Bleu martini was phenomenal!

    Everything there was great. The food, the staff and the atmosphere. We had been told by multiple people of how great the food was and ie did not disappoint. All of our questions were answered and we were able to taste a few wines before we decided on one. The portions were perfect and we all really enjoyed the food and atmosphere.

    Went before a show at the Anonoff which was just a quick walk away. Have a great wine list and cocktails. We had the oysters to start which were great and then split the Bronzino which was amazing. Will be back for sure
