Created by renowned Chef Margarita Forés, LUSSO is a champagne and gastrobar that serves exquisite European dishes. The restaurant invokes an old-world elegance with delicious dishes and a special high tea menu to add to its charm. LUSSO, which is the Italian word for luxe, is truly a gem as it brings Europe’s much-desired flavors to Manila through the plateful of delicious food they serve.

While the restaurant is known for luxury dining, Lusso makes sure that they have dishes that will cater to everyone. Their menu is composed of all-time favorites such as pasta and sandwiches with an added twist.

Take, for example, the crowd-favorite Lusso Demi-Pound Burger with foie gras and their iconic Spinach Taglierini pasta, made only with high-quality ingredients to preserve the authenticity of their flavors.

We also recommend their US Angus Short Rib Roll, a combination of tender Angus beef with just the right amount of fat, soft-boiled egg, and horseradish cream on Dutch crunch roll.

With its limited seating, we advise guests to place a reservation beforehand. The best time to visit LUSSO would be at dinner time, where you’ll truly enjoy their sumptuous food as you take a seat in their al fresco dining area, complete with glimmering lights and a lush garden for a perfect backdrop.
