The food at Longitude 315 is among the best on the North Shore. The skirt steak in particular is always wonderful. We also ordered empanadas, chicken and fish which were all excellent. As with many restaurants these days a little patience is required due to staffing issues but it's worth the wait.
Delicious food with excellent service! We loved the plantains with green dip, and small plates of eggplant, green beans, and lamb chops
We love Longitud and have eaten here many times! Food and service and ambience are all fantastic!
We've been coming to this restaurant for a long time and the food is good and consistent. I realize it was busy and probably understaffed, but service was subpar and not very friendly. When the bill came out, they charged us for something they never brought out and also tried to auto charge 25% tip when the menu clearly says 20% for group of 6 or more. They made the adjustments but never apologized or even acknowledged that they made a simple mistake. In fact, their rudeness made us feel bad for bringing it up.
The appetizers were great especially the green beans. The salmon was prepared perfectly and the sides were very tasty.
The restaurant is fantastic, we've been a few times and the food is great and it's a nice cozy place. Only things that needs to change are the terrible squishy chairs that seem to remain only at one table - which is the table we got the last two times.... :(
We have been going to Longitude 315 since it opened and NEVER had a meal we didn't thoroughly enjoy. The service is amazing. When weather permits the rooftop is our go to place to sit.
This was our third time visiting Longitud315 - and while the food was great as always, the service was definitely lacking this time. Understandably, it was a busy Saturday night. But by the time we sat down and ordered our drinks, we had to wait over 20 mins to get them. Then we ordered several appetizers which were great but drink options for wine and beer were more limited, and they ran out of certain types. Again, chalk this up to a Sat night and being busy. The kicker was when we got to dessert time - we ordered a carafe of decaf coffee w/ dessert. The coffee came out first but w/ no cream or sugar - but we had to ask 3 separate people to get some milk or cream. And it wasn't until we were halfway done with our desserts that our sever finally came out and apologized that they had run out of ALL milk products--they had to toss them as they realized they were past their expiration date! No offers to comp the coffee either (which was $13 for the carafe BTW) - which we wouldn't have ordered if we knew there were no milk products. AND looking out the window there was a Walgreens right across the street too - which I think someone could have quickly run to (even I would have run across the street had i known!). Now the clincher - the bill came out and it was quite a bit higher than we expected (granted there were 6 of us). But the server failed to note the gratuity was included (which is a pet peeve of mine when servers don't explicitly say this..). ALSO, the included tip was greater than 20% of the bill - which was interesting and not clear why this was the case. We decided not to complain or ask - but when we put in our credit cards, it came back and the bill was almost $25 higher (i'm guessing b/c none of us paid with debit cards or cash so there was an upcharge). But again, no explanation for this... While I usually recommend this place to others, this unfortunately turned us off -so I don't think we'll be returning anytime soon..so long, Longitud.
Extremely pleasant outdoor dining experience, with delicious specialties, including lamb cops and empanadas. The champagne selection was also great. The server was wonderful! We'll be back!
Great time sitting by the kitchen watching the fantastic food be prepped. We enjoyed every dish we ordered. The roasted mussels, flank steak and polpo were highlights. The pisco sour superb!

We've been frequenting Longitude for over 10 years. In that time, they expanded into an upstairs dining room and added a 2nd floor deck. We were seated upstairs inside - for the first time ever. Not my favorite place as the decor is very dark and lacks continuity. We prefer the first floor or the 2nd floor deck. The churasco is still a family favorite. They now serve the sides on the same plate as the meats (and it gets cold quickly) and are less generous in the portion of rice and beans as well as the quality. Rice texture and flavor was that of instant rice. Also, you are now charged for chips and chimichirri when it used to be complimentary. The service was excellent, including a special request for someone on a restricted diet. Overall we still like “Tony's” place however, in the last 10 years, prices have gone up and quality has moved from excellent to good.
This was an overall. great experience! Took my 91 yr old MIL and she complained the whole time- until we got the food! Then she couldn't say enough about how delicious it was, how cute the restaurant was, how fun it was. The food was different than the usual, with a great blend of spices. The plantains were amazing, we also shared a salmon dish and a sirloin/mushroom dish that was so good. Exceptional food, great sides, tasty cocktails. Super fun and delicious!
this local, loved South American-inspired restaurant is always a treat, from a girls night out to a special occasion to just stopping by for a small plate and a beer. Chef Tony always has surprises on his menu, mixing local flavors with traditional recipes. I'm always hard pressed to decide whether to eat the barramundi or the salmon, while my meat-eating diner have a wide range of options from skirt steak to tenderloin, wrapped in sauces straight from South America, lots of mole and chimichurris and sauteed onions and right now with grilled asparagus for Spring. Their fried plantains are also excellent. Service is friendly and attentive, but not overbearing. Highly recommend for a new taste experience if you have not had South American fare.
We enjoyed our first experience at this restaurant. Let's start with the okay stuff: The Hostess was not welcoming. No smiles no engagement what so ever. The waitress seemed like we were taking up her time. She acted like she was in a hurry even though the restaurant was not busy. She caught our conversation short. OK the Good stuff. The FOOD. We started with assorted Empanadas. Fantastic flavors. Then we enjoyed the Argentinan Montaditos. Amazing. For desert we had fried plantains soaked in Rum, Chocolate and Carmel. The wine choices were terrific and the pours generous. Seating: The bar is too small for eating. The tables for two and Too small for two people. There are two tables in front with street view (best choices for groups of 4+) We will definitely be back ! One Negative: I didn't see any mention of Gluten Free options / safety for Celiac People.
This was my first time here, and enjoyed it very much. A wide variety of small plates and large and all the food we ordered was delicious
