    Wonderful anniversary dinner location! Could come here for Marsala mushrooms alone. However the Burrata, house salad, ribeye, and charred onion mashed potatoes were excellent! And the butter cake for dessert…just WOW. One of us didn’t have room for dessert but once they tried it …well let’s just say I had a lot of help eating it! Thank you Losanti! Our experiences eating out on January 1 have typically not been good as the chef is rarely on site the day after New Year’s Eve but you folks were perfect!! We will be back…often!

    Always a fun experience. We got lucky with the weather, but the new heaters they installed this year and the table and chairs below make it warmer. Bring a game have some drinks!
