Super cute spot! A bit loud but cozy and great lighting. We shared the bread and burrata, some pizzas, and 3 pastas. My favorite was the bone marrow and other favorite was the crab pasta. Top dessert would be the carrot cake.

This bad review is for the manager last night, my friends and I genuinely felt bad for the staff here. I hope when she reads this she can adjust her attitude and treat her staff with a more respect and kindness. The staff was REALLY SWEET + hardworking and they deserve to be treated well.

The server personally made sure we felt uncomfortable throughout the evening and had no intention of making our dining experience any better., manager showed zero professionalism when discussing our concerns regarding both the service and food.I brought the error to the attention of our server after discovering that we had mistakenly received food intended for a different party at the restaurant however, judging by the language both server and manager used during explanation of events to the other party (incorrectly assuming both myself & whomever else they may have been referring to are immigrants?)Bravo!I am thoroughly disappointed with my experience at this restaurant and will never come back here again.

Decent atmosphere, kinda dark and fairly loud. Food was over all good. The meatballs were good, but nothing crazy. The ricotta wip was a good addition to them and the bread was good and crispy. The mushrooms lasagna was absolutely over powered by the balsamic and wayyyy too sweet. The egg pizza was delicious from the dough to the toppings. The desserts however were best described by my friend as grocery store desserts. Tiramisu was ok, missing half a layer... Strawberry shortcake a hard pass. Neither worth it imo.

Food: Delicious take on modern Italian. The mushroom lasagna was rich and delicious. Think mushroom ravioli on steroids. The seared California striped bass was flaky and flavorful along with good pairings of small accoutrements to enhance the flavor.Drink: The cocktail I ordered was VERY weak to the point I had to ask if there was any alcohol in it at all and was told that's just how it is. After informing the bartender and manager they still tried to confirm it had the appropriate amount of mezcal in it, however, I could not taste a drop. I really think they forgot to put any in it as it was overpowered by lime.

Service is very irregular - for the 2nd time we've been there in the last month. 10 minutes at the table before a waiter stopped. Appetizer was served 10 minutes after my wife got hers - last time she had finished her entree before mine was served

The server told us food was to be ordered all at once but would coursed out. Instead, everything came at once, so our main dishes were cold before we had a chance to finish our appetizers and salad. They started taking our plates before we were finished and were clearly in a rush, which was bit conducive to catching up with friends. That said, the food was very good.

I have dined at Love and Salt more times than I can count. The cocktails are always a great way to start dinner. Very inventive and tasty. The food is always excellent. The pizzas are amazing , salads fresh and delicious and the chicken is one of the best I've ever had. The service is A plus and it is a place I happily return to over and over again !

The entrees & appetizers we ordered were awesome! We had the broccolini, smoked prosciutto pizza, diver scallop, & mushroom lasagna. Inside the atmosphere is very lively but not overly busy. Would definitely visit again ?

The service was great but the food was really bad tbh.

I'm just in love with this place. It amazes me every time. They constantly change their menu so you get to try different things all the time. It reminds me of a true Italian restaurant. The pizza is outstanding and the service as well!
