We had lunch here – and it was excellent. The beet salad was nicely presented, great mushroom soup and a good chicken parm dish.

Came in 25 mins before closing on a Monday and staff was very friendly enough to still serve me. Great impression considering I just moved in near by… Chicken Marsala is phenomenal!!

We were in town visiting from the East Coast, and the menu/ratings drew us in. While the live music was nice, the food and service were subpar.

This restraint was great! The food was perfect for the price, the wait staff was helpful and fast, the location was clean, and the menu had so many options I will be going back to try. It’s great any day of the week- but I highly recommend Thursdays if you like jazz.

We have been to Italy many times and the authentic dishes were spot on as well as some fun new twists to some of the traditional dishes. The service was unbelievable even mid week near closing. They took the time to really ensure our dinner was perfect! We will be back very soon. (Side note: my uncle lived in Italy for 2 years and this is his favorite spot in the entire valley for authentic Italian! His recommendation!)

We wanted to try a local neighborhood Italian spot and we heard about La Locanda. Right away, you are greeted by friendly staff and the ambience is intimate. Our server gave us great wine recommendations too.

Casual Italian restaurant tucked away against the canal. Is social distancing (3/21). We had a very nice server and the staff was very friendly all around. Food wise, the menu is a bit limited though hard to tell if that’s covid related like others. It was shown as Italian seafood cuisine though it had more turf than surf. We had the calamari, which was unbreaded and perfectly cooked though a somewhat sweet lemon sauce was with it that we weren’t thrilled with. I ordered an arugula strawberry almond salad with a very tasty vinaigrette; it’s huge and we shared it. I also ordered the linguini arrabbiata (linguini and shrimp in spicy tomato sauce). It was definitely spicy Calabrian Chile sauce. The shrimp were large and well cooked but had that odd tinge of flavor some frozen shrimp has. I ate it anyway. My companion had the veal Gorgonzola special with red sauce. He said it was good. There was some spinach sauté on the side. The dessert options were standard with one “impossible cake”. It was a chocolate cake on the bottom and cheesecake on top, cooked together. Also surprisingly bland on the bottom and the baked cheesecake was okay.

Came here for our anniversary. Made a reservation for anice table. The gentlman at the door gave us a table with a glaring outside light coming on…not the best table ? Our server was great, and they wipe the table after you eat, a nice touch. The goat/beet salad and mozerella/chili jam appetizer was fresh and good! The osso bucco with risotto moise and flavorful and home made gnocci the best. Pleasant, quiet restaurant! Just need red tanle cloths!! Oh, Italian music as well!!

An AMAZING experience! Started with the muscles, had the gnocchi for my main, and the chocolate mouse cake for dessert. I was unbelievably full at the end, but I wouldn’t have changed a thing! The staff was amazing and knowledgeable!
