In Short
Located in the heart of downtown St. Paul's burgeoning Lowertown (hence the name), LoTo has the wide-open feeling of the artsy lofts that are making this neighborhood hot. Look for contemporary American classics--New… Read Full Editorial
Great setting for substandard menu by fpdowntown via Citysearch on 4/15/2009
I recommend Loto to meet friends for a drink and conversation or to quietly read with a glass of wine. It is a great place to unwind at the end of the day or week. The wait staff have always been friendly and inspired me to try some new…

This place is a wasteland of medeocracy. If the dinosaurs were alive today this is where they would lay thier heads at night. - Matt…
Lo To hits new low by Topper68 via Citysearch on 2/28/2008
I've eaten at Lo To before and it was wonderful, but tonight's experience will keep me from ever again stepping foot in Lo To. I shared a wonderful Spinach/Gorgonzola salad that was ruined by being drowned in what should have been a light…
Give me a brake! by picric5286 via Citysearch on 12/10/2007
My friends and I have given this place several tries. Each try has been very disappointing. The poor and rude service is very consistent. We will never go back to this place and we live in downtown St. Paul. Calling the food average is a…
Would not recommend this restaurant! by mlt2908 via Citysearch on 9/5/2007
This had to be one of the worst restaurants I've ever been to. We were the ONLY patrons there when we first arrived on a Sunday at 6:30 pm and we did not see anyone else in the main dining area, yet it took an incredible amount of time…
Bad Service, Good Food, Awesome Atmosphere by dwtnspxpert via Citysearch on 2/5/2007
Please set your expectations on low for service at this restaurant. After going there several times, it was the same poor service - whether weekday lunch, weekend brunch, or weekend night. If you can get the attention of your waitstaff…
Neat Place by katieje via Citysearch on 10/25/2006
I went there with my boyfriend for dinner. I didn't love my food, but his was good. Not that the food was bad, just I'm a little too picky. My boyfriend thought mine was good. Bar is neat. I think it would be a great happy hour hang…
Relaxed atmosphere with nice decor and good food by anabean via Citysearch on 10/17/2006
Not being from the Twin Cities area, I found LoTo by doing an internet search when I came here for a conference. I noticed the bad ratings but went anyway, figuring I would see for myself about the food and service. I was pleasantly…
Improving by mpas via Citysearch on 9/18/2006
This is not a fine dinning and it is not trying to be it is simply a great neighborhood restaurant with good food .
very disappointed by sgalba via Citysearch on 9/18/2006
When my best friend and I first walked in we were going to order our food promptly at the counter. The man behind the counter was too busy talking on the phone to take our order, so we decided to sit down and eat. The service was very…
best veggie pizza - wood fired pesto veggie pizza, happy hour wine prices by kh459 via Citysearch on 9/13/2006
The food is consistently good to excellent, and the veggie pizza with pesto is incredible. Don't come here for perfect service, it varies - bartenders excepted, they're awesome. Come for the great views over Mears Park at night and the…
Horrible service and average food. by nbeau via Citysearch on 8/11/2006
I decided I wanted to check out the hot new place for my birthday over lunch during the week. Boy, was that a mistake! We were seated near the bar fairly promptly after being frowned at by the manager for not having a reservation. Then…
Watch out! by ssmith2008 via Citysearch on 7/19/2006
I live and work in lower town and so I get stuck at LoTo for plenty of work and social events. It has only slightly improved since its inception. First, the happy hour is a joke. They never have all of their beer in supply and if you…
Nice enviroment, bad service... by natimalania via Citysearch on 6/27/2006
We ordered salad ... they brought sandviches, we ordered beer and wine ... they had neither one. Just enjoy the interior... I would recommend this restaurant if you don`t care about food and drinks
Right at home in lowertown by distanced via Citysearch on 6/6/2006
LoTo is trying to do a million things, and they actually do them all quite well. What a great addition to the neighborhood. I frequented LoTo when I lived in lowertown. I wish I hadn't moved! I still get back occasionally. The service…
Gutsy restaurant!!!! by patrick7 via Citysearch on 3/6/2006
I live in Minneapolis and work in Lowertown and for many years and I have seen restaurants come and go Lo To at it's worst is a 100 times better than anything Lowertown ever had Lo To at it's best can't be beat by any restaurant…
Yikess by chloemn via Citysearch on 3/2/2006
I was there on Sat for lunch, and agree with the previous review that they were totally understaffed. Only one server who also a cashier at the self service counter, and a bartender. The server was nice, but totally swamped, no time to…
Not good. Just plain embarrassing. by underwood72 via Citysearch on 2/7/2006
This place was so bad I honestly thought I might be on Candid Camera during my dining experience.
Went on a Saturday night (group of 4), and to start off, they were clearly understaffed. Our waitress was pleasant, but irretrievably…
Fine Digs, however... by perfem via Citysearch on 1/3/2006
I went with a group of 6 on New Years eve. We made res @ 8:00 and were seated promtly. We sat out in the "lobby" or mall enterence of Galtier PLaza, so we did not get the great views of Mears Park still lit up for the holidays. They were…
Sometimes, beauty is in the imperfections. by puravidachica via Citysearch on 12/20/2005
When assessing the value of this quaint neighborhood spot please bear in mind they are new, and still finding their niche. That said, being a guest who frequents LoTo regularly I must note that both management and the service staff take…
