    I've been to LP 3-4 times now and every single time they exceed expectations; last night I celebrated my birthday there and it was excellent as always. Service is fantastic. The front of house staff was very accommodating when I asked to change my reservation and nothing on RESY was available. The presentation, food quality and ambiance is great. The menu is creative and execution of each dish is near perfect. The drinks are made well and the energy of our waitress last night was particularly fun, engaging and extremely positive. Will continue to come back again and again.

    Great seasonal restaurant! Their menu and food offerings change with the seasons, as it should be. Love restaurants that follow the seasons= fresh food! Therefore, they have freshest ingredients and know how to make a great margarita with organic tequila, so no hangover! At least thats wheat they told me :) My friend and I sat at the bar, highly recommend the gem salad, tuna crudo and ricotta with bread - and of course a margarita with their organic tequila, ha! Great for dinner with friends, casual get together or date night. It accommodates everyone's needs on any day or season. Looking forward to the next time.

    I came here for a team of 10 dinner, so didn't take pictures of the food. We got the snap peas and mushroom pizzas. The mushroom pizza was good, but was expected from the description. The snap peas pizza was so unique and tasty! For starters we also got hummus which came with piping hot pita bread, both delicious! We also got the tuna crudo and artic char sashimi, both of these were small for the price, but tasty. The charred broccolis could've been skipped, also tasted what you'd expect it to be like. My teammates really enjoyed the fried tempura asparagus, but I didn't get to try. One of them said he would go back just for it! For drinks I got the pomegranate & hibiscus in house soda, which was refreshing, but a bit too tart for my liking. I wouldn't get it again, but finished it. For my main course I got the short rib, which from the smell I thought it was going to be really sweet, but it wasn't! It was tender and the pickled onions that comes with it balanced out the hearty flavor nicely. The restaurant was bigger than what you would expect looking in. Really dim lighting. Service was great initially, but it got really packed and they didn't come around to give us our checks for a while, but overall really good especially for a big group. They were constantly refilling our water.

    Not only does Loring Place have a well-informed and friendly staff, their menu includes a lovely selection of options for people with various dietary preferences, and they have an ambiance that is fitting for any occasion. Dining at this restaurant was nothing short of a perfect setting to celebrate my friend and I's graduation (party of 2) and allowed us to have great conversation while still being attended to regularly. I loved their French toast, snap pea salad, and their freshly squeezed orange juice which was very refreshing. Their marinated chili sauce paired well with many of their items. Diners can expect to pay ~$30 for an appetizer and entree (pretty reasonable) and will surely enjoy their time here!
