Locanda Locatelli review by Matt B

This is the second time we have visited Locanda Locatelli and I have to say we were not disapointed.

It was our anniversary and had previously visited Locatelli's on our honeymoon, although being quite tipsy at the time it was a bit of a blur. This time we started the evening with staight heads and eyes and I have to say I enjoyed every minute of it.

To start we had the carpaccio of beef and the chargrilled squid with chilli, both of which were excellent and generous without being overwhelming.

Next we had Tagliatelle with kid lamb ragu and Linguine with Lobster with were again excellent and again good portions.

Finally we had Caramelised Bannanas with Honey Yogurt Ice Cream, which was fab especially as I don't eat cream so yogurt ice cream was great. my partner had Lemon Souffle with lemon sorbet and bitter chocolate biscuit, the Sorbet and biscuit base was lovely but unfortunately the Souffle was a bit undercooked although it did taste nice.

Because we had very differrent courses we asked the sommelier to provide wines by the glass for each course, he provided some fantastic.wines varying from £3.50 a glass to £10 a glass, a couple of which weren't normally sold by the glass.

all in all the entire evening was fantastic, the atmostphere, the service and quality of food and wines made for a magical evening.

Other reviews saying that this was over priced and poor service are absurd, I have eaten in many restaurants including 3 star michelin and can safely say that this is a great restaurant.
