Locanda Locatelli review by Jed Evans

I never gone to a restaurant where virtually everything on the menu seemed so unappealing. There was only 1 pasta that seems edible. When the waiter took our order, all 4 of us wanted the same pasta. To be different, I ordered a lasagne with "wind-dried" cod with capers. I like seafood so I figured I had to keep an open mind and not be turned away by the description. What a disappointment. It was a square of lagagne noodles with a puree of fish poured over the top. It was like a dish of catfood.

There wasn't one member of our party that was impressed with either the antipasto or the entree.

The service is excellent and the ambiance is enjoyable. It is the food that disappoints. Having just returned from Rome, I enjoyed much better meals at 1/4 of the price.

Locanda Locatelli has clearly gotten a little too impressed with itself and needs to return to the roots that gave it it's name.

Stay away at all costs!!!
