"We were looking so much forward to this evening. Having eaten at a few michelin starred restaurants around the world we had some expectations for food and service. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with Locanda Locatelli. We were a party of 4 and it was a birthday dinner. The only really good dish was the sepia antipasto, all the other dishes were average or below, felt totally uninspired and were far from 1 michelin star quality. E.g. the burrata antipasto was boring, lacked salt and some acidity. The gnocchi with goat cheese and truffle were nice, but it would have tasted exactly the same without the truffle, as we could neither smell nor taste this truffle, even though ther was abundantly on the dish, we found this very strange... Also the fried zucchini lacked salt and were hence not as pleasant to eat as they could have been. Also, in a restaurant like this, I expect the chef to greet the guests at some point during the evening, which unfortunately did not happen. Also, we got unlucky with our waitress. We had 2 people in our party that only spoke Italian and we got the only waitress who didn't speak the language. She was friendly, but also very insecure and I always felt pity when she presented the dishes because she did this in a very peculiar way. Also, to be honest, all these fabric bracelets around her wrists felt very unhygienic... All the other waiters, the maître d' and the sommelier were fantastic though! They also did their best to make up for it when we shared that we weren't happy about the food. It is for this quality of service that I give 3 stars to this post. Service 5, Food 2!"

Quiet place, excellent service and finally an extraordinary dinner. Cost??? Proportional to the above but in line.

We went there for dinner for my husbands 60th in March. We were so disappointed with everything especially the food which was very underwhelming! And then a huge bill! Not what we expected at all

Great food… but when I ask for the bill at 10 pm and don’t get it till 1040 and then the machine takes just as long to come, the service quality significantly declines. Do not keep your patrons waiting an hour to leave your restaurant, it is quite rude.

Trip to London and second time at Locatelli. Elegant environment, with excellent atmosphere. Attentive and precise service. Account in line with London prices. Good menu for local palates, in Italy I think it would be very different, however everything was appreciated. View menu

For our birthday, my sister and I treated ourselves to a trip to London, why not end with a good dinner! The staff is helpful and friendly. Moving the table to sit/get up is a little inconvenient. Not drinking wine (we only ordered a bottle of water for our personal reasons) I felt like I was stingy . They bring a basket of bread and oil: delicious. Too bad the bread plate was missing! The breadsticks were not to my liking. Having chosen the dishes (too bad there was no tasting menu) and specified that my sister doesn 't like cheese, hers comes with a sprinkling of parmesan! A serious oversight. My second course with all those raw artichoke leaves, even not, the cream and the fish were excel...

Tragicomic experience Once you arrive at the restaurant, you enter independently and are welcomed by the staff. Overcoats are put away and you are led to the table. First embarrassment already in sitting down: the table is completely moved to accommodate the diners on the sofa but the scene is completely singular and awkward. After a few minutes, the breadsticks (1 per person), bread, focaccia and oil are brought. The sommelier lived up to expectations by recommending good wines based on our preferences and orders. Some flaws on the service however: side dish not arrived, stained table, re-fill carried out with the wrong wine. In general the staff seemed quite tense. Moving on to the menu: d...
