A charming, friendly and warm Italian restaurant that I would highly recommend. Really friendly staff. They also play really good music and have a fifties mod/vespa theme. Quite expensive by UK standards (I'm from Scotland) but cheap by London standards and what makes this place good value is that all their food is home made, by Italians. They also have parking places in the street so call them to book a table as well as that place.

Hidden gem in Camden. The outside looks like a restaurant you could easily pass by. But don't! The food is amazing and truly Italian. Top lunch specials and the pasta and antipasti is always amazing. Finished with focus on details. The service is always very friendly and up to speed. Great value for money. Recommended.

I can't believe I haven't been there before. The food is FANTASTIC, the atmosphere is CHEERFUL, and their OWN invention gnocchi chocolate dessert is close to what the meaning of life should be. You have GOT to try it. The portions are seriously generous and the menu options are plentiful. One downside: humans only have one stomach to fill, so I guess I have to go back for the rest of the menu.

Having tried most restaurants in Camden this is easily the best Italian. Highly recommended. Great food from a friendly family run business. Current top choice for a meal out. Get in whilst you can still get a table.

Honestly, this is my favorite Italian in London. Small, cute place just off he high street run by a really warm and friendly couple - who, importantly also make DELICIOUS food. I work around the corner so come here really regularly. Never disappointed. I actually recently became vegan and they've also been really helpful and accommodating me being generally annoying. But I can also vouch for the fish and meat dishes from when I used to eat them. Definitely give it a go. You won't regret.

Delicious, homemade Italian pasta! We've tried the Orecchiete pugliesi - and had to order an extra plate - that's how good it was! The staff is super nice and friendly and make sure you feel welcome and at home. Lovely place - can't wait to come back again on my next visit to London.

Tucked away in Camden is this little restaurant with a huge personality. The vibe is friendly, intimate and relaxed. The food is excellent quality and the portions are huge! As well as the usual Italian food (heavenly Burrata and antipasto platters overflowing with delicious morsels) you would expect are the inventive and delicious mains I have not come across before. I had the Pork shin baked in Barolo wine and it was to die for. The Italian Gnocchi are life-changing - I have wanted these every day since my meal there! The staff make you feel at home and service is great..all in all you can't ask for a better place to spend a few hours enjoying excellent food.

Wonderful neighbourhood Italian. Authentic northern Italian cuisine. Homely during the day, romantic in the evening. Simple good value lunch set menu. Don't leave without trying the chocolate Gnocchi!!

Loved this place. It's cute and quirky and the food is great. My caprese salad starter was a little disappointing - but then you just can't get the tomatoes in England! Still it was tasty and I ate it all! My truffle tagliatelle was like heaven in my mouth, with perfectly al dente pasta and aromatic, but not overpowering truffle flavour coating every bit. Classically italian, with more emphasis on olive oil and less on sauce. The portions weren't huge, but perfectly reasonable and I was certainly satisfied. For dessert the limoncello ice cream was a little too hard in texture, but the taste was sublime. Laid back, but attentive service - our waiter was very friendly and we had a nice chat with him since there were no other customers in the restaurant (Monday night, after all). I'll definitely be going back!

HA HA HA. I'M STILL HERE. I'm celebrating my youngest son results of university in what he studied mathematics and philosophy. My younger brother organised the table at this beautiful restaurant. I don't know if I will be honest enough. But Locanda has everything that you need. Food, Service location and price. SIMPLE THE BEST.

Only popped in for a quick carbonara as I was killing time. Bloody lovely! Stop in and you won't be disappointed. Minor criticism- no pepper grinder on table and I would have expected a spoon with my meal and the music was really loud but other than those very minor moans I would say top notch.
