- KKellyVIPNew York City •39 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoThis was my first time at The Love + it was an exceptional experience from beginning to end. The check-in hostesses were warm and welcoming, and every staff member, especially my server, John, was friendly + knowledgeable about everything great the restaurant has to offer. My meal, the Caesar Salad + Ravioli was outstanding, the flavor profiles in both dishes fresh + inventive ~ I devoured everything! The restaurant itself is beautiful, lending to the perfect dining experience I thoroughly enjoyed. I look forward to my next experience at The Love.More infoThe LovePrice: Expensive• American• Rittenhouse Square•4.8
- BBrookeLos Angeles •4 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoWe enjoyed everything from the moment we waked in to the moment we left. Our anniversary was acknowledged by the hostess, our server and a manager. They also sent out a sweet little dessert. Timing was very fluid. I was very impressed with the acoustics- the restaurant was totally packed but you can not hear another individual conversation and can still make out the music. Hard to achieve without seeing visible panels or an abundance of heavy drapery and rugs which there is not. Food was perfect.More infoParcPrice: Expensive• French• Rittenhouse Square•4.8

Varied and interesting menu selections and free of the eternal and uninspiring steak and green beans offering.
