About this business
There is nothing like stepping into a restaurant and being served 'authentic' cuisine that is truly authentic! Locanda does just that by serving genuine cuisine from Northern Italy's Lombardy region. Highlights from the menu are Insalata di Mare Calda described as a warm seafood salad of calamari, scallops, mussels, tiger shrimp, and clams tossed in lemon-caper vinaigrette or try the Melanzane alla Parmigiana baked eggplant layered with fresh mozzarella, tomato sauce, basil and herbs; the appetizers should have you primed fo... read more

Locanda del Lago Lago is a great Italian restaurant with a prime location on Third Street Promenade. They have an outdoor patio which has a wonderful European feel. The antipasto and salad bar at lunch is excellent and so are their pastas and pizzas.
Good Restaurant – We eat a lot of Italian food so we're picky when it comes to restaurants. This place rates pretty highly for us. The service was prompt and attentive despite being there on an extremely busy Saturday night. The food was excellent, especially the Butternut Squash Risotto with Scallops. Outstanding! Only complaint was because the restaurant was so busy we ended up sitting on wooden folding chairs that were uncomfortable. Definitely make reservations if planning to go here.
Great food, very poor service – I just dined here with a friend yesterday Sunday 7/22. After walking by this restaurant several times and taking a peek at their menu we decided to give it a try. Your dining experience starts off with delicious warm bread and a very tasty trout spread with walnuts and garlic. My friend and I shared the eggplant appetizer which was really good. I had the spaghetti bolognese as my entree, which was absolutely delicious! The quality of the food is really great, however, the service is quite diss... read more
Bad waiter – I do thing that it takes little to make people dinner happy, especially when the food is good. But unfortunatelly that sould alway be something wrong, like our server. I'am sorry, but iwould never comeback.
Taste of Europe – Nice location and European ambience just off the Third Street Promenade .
Great dinner experience, excellent for lunch, too – I have been to lunch and dinner at Locanda del Lago several times, the most recent being about a week ago when my husband and I took my parents out for a nice dinner, and it was wonderful. Terrific service, where they really make you feel welcome and are happy to see you come back. They give you a delicious dip with the bread when you sit down, and the food is pretty different from the standard stuff you find at a lot of Italian restaurants. Their menu says they specialize ... read more
Great Pasta and great location on 3rd Street – Went with girlfriend and we had a great table tucked in the back. Service and waiters were great - very helpful. He quickly understood that we came there first to be able to talk and then the food so he let us take our time in ordering. The pasta was great. I'll go back there again. A little pricey though.
Terrible, Rude Service – I made a reservation for Valentine's Day and called the restaurant to ask if they would be offering anything off of their regular menu, or if you had to eat the prix fixe menu. I was assured on the phone that limited items would be available, by request, off of the regular menu. Completely different story when I arrived. The hostess couldn't even figure out what my name was (it's not that hard) and had a difficult time finding the reservation. She then looked at me blankly when I asked about the regu... read more
Best Italian on Third Street – When it comes to great, fresh Italian. This restaurant always comes to mind. I enjoy the atmosphere, the location, and the food is great. I have eaten at this restaurant plenty of times, and I always walk out feeling satisfied. They have a great cheese plate, and the wines are great. They have an entree that is very interesting. It's a rock salt fish....and they debone it for you right there for you. It's an interesting restaurant, and I recommend this place highly.
