Locanda Locatelli review by TL

I was really looking forward to going to Locanda Locatelli. It is not an easy place to book especially for a Saturday night. I was not disappointed. Service staff were wonderful. Everyone was very friendly and attentive from the moment we were greeted at at the door. It was completely different than some of the reviews I've read about this place. Loved the decor. Very intimate. Ordered their special cocktail...grape martini. It was delicious made with fresh grapes. The food was lovely and the pasta dishes were done to perfection...al dente unlike most places in UK where you find pasta generally too well cooked. I started with beef carpaccio which was lovely and a generous portion. My partner had a fish soup which was filled with moist and tender chucks of fishes. I had linguini with langoustine. It was a good portion with a good quantity of langoustine tails. My partner had the chicken which moist and delicious. Our guest had spaghetti with sardine which was also delicious. For dessert we ordered green tea mousse which was light and had the delicate taste of green tea just perfect. The wine list is extensive and had a good range of different priced wine. The service and the food was really good. The restaurant do have a 2 hour table policy and at times, I do feel a bit rushed but otherwise, it was a lovely meal.
