Many things have been said about Lusso's famous foie gras burger, and for my 23rd birthday, Boyfriend and I decided to give it a try. We were originally planning on dining at the Phoenix Court in Bellevue, but because I was stuck in Greenbelt, we ended up at Lusso where we had the most amazing time.
Truffle Mushroom and Cream Fries (250) Lusso is famous for their truffle potato chips, but we were already starving so we decided to start with something heavier. The fries were fat yet crispy, but the sauce is what really made this appetizer special. Every bite made me gasp with how good it was. They didn't skimp on the truffle to make sure you can taste it in every drop of the cream. It was ridiculously the most luxurious, and best tasting fries we've ever had. Shepherd's Pie (575) Boyfriend picked the shepherd's pie from Lusso's very simple and straightforward menu. He was excited for me to try it because it was my first time, and I ended up loving it. The braised lamb was tender and still has that distinct meat taste that only lamb has. On top was perfectly seasoned mashed potatoes, that went nicely with the meat. I would definitely recommend this to anyone planning to eat at Lusso. 
We loved our Lusso experience. The food was awesome and the servers were friendly. The ambiance during lunch time was very relaxing and was absolutely perfect for our date. And with the lovely interiors of the restaurant, I bet it would make for a romantic spot at night, especially the gorgeous al fresco area. Lusso is located at the ground floor of Greenbelt 5.
