Ristorante Locanda Locarnese

The overall experience was good. My expectations were higher, food was greatly presented (even though a bit old fashioned), but it overtook flavours. The atmosphere was good and the staff really friendly. We got the full menu (5 courses) and they also brought an amuse bouche in the beginning. My comment is that somehow it was missing 'love' from the dishes. With a bit of extra care from good they could become delicious/extraordinary. I am not sure if I could go back for more. Thank you.

One of the best restaurants in Locarno by our experience in very center of the old city. Everything from menu was amazing! Service was friendly and professional.

A very special restaurant in the old town elegant, traditional but modern and dynamic Elegant setting The specialities are from local inspiration but definitely modern in their presentation Excellent offer of wines 🍷 Service is impeccable and friendly

Wonderful tasting menu, cozy open fireplace, and absolutely charming service. Piemonte at our doorstep.

Wonderful place, great food, the best service and everything for a decent price.

Nothing to compare with the best restaurant in Como. Disappointment

Incredible, mouthwatering risotto. We had the five course dinner, they even made us a vegetarian version on the fly as they had no equivalent on the menu. Service was incredibly kind, very “home”-like feeling. Reserve if you can as it was and maybe still is very busy, even during the week.

Dishes were decorated with berries and camomiles and had amazing taste. Staff was very nice. The menu doesn't offer many varieties but most likely everyone finds something for them. Prices above average but it's worth it.

I love seeking the hidden gems, and this is certainly one in Locarno. It's Michelin listed but not rated - but then, who cares? Sometimes Michelin rated means dropping a few hundred francs for a beautiful atmosphere while still feeling hungry... A group of us ordered various dishes and every single dish I have eaten/tried are simply very fresh, ingredients meticulously blended, and nicely decorated. They even proudly claim their local tomato served in their tomato/mozzarella dish is the best - and amazingly it really tasted as if it was freshly picked. The serving sizes are perfect and I'd recommend ordering from their menu of the day - you get a special pricing based on how many dishes from the selection you want to order, and this ensures you are eating the freshest dishes from the menu. With pasta cooked and seasoned to perfection, lamb that is perfectly cooked, fresh succulent tomatoes, perfectly cooked risotto served with local egli filet, one can't go wrong eating here. The service is very helpful and the chef comes out to meet everyone after the meal. Set your GPS and find this place. It's located on a small corner across from the Migros Garden and Coop - so not too hard to find. Reasonably priced meal for a Michelin listed restaurant.

Absolutely adorable and quality service/food! Found it by accident and could not have chosen better! Intimate athmosphere and warmly welcoming staff.

Decided to go for the lunch menu. Excellent choice. Four courses, all freshly made and nice served. My favourite was ravioli with tomatoe sauce. Yummie. Waitress very kind, very good recommendation what wine goes with the menu - ticinese white wine.
