I was very disappointed by the food that was tasteless and boiled over. I had the overcooked grilled sea bass with kartoffels that lubricated as if they were the frozen type. the service was slow and our food came in batches, but we said that the original cook had a notch, so there was a step in the chef.

A couple of grumbles, but only to myself really the olives tasted very salty as if preserved in brine. I just prefer fresher. The chicken in my main was just cubed, so felt very straight out a packet. However, from the Tapas section, the Calamari was lovely and the mushrooms also superb. The one main of Chicken in a white sauce (can't remember the name) was very well received it was really enjoyed. The other main was a pesto chicken pasta mixture which was decent enough. So overall it was a decent meal. No offer of a desserts menu, so can only assume there isn't one.

Did not realise it was £26.00! When the food came the salmon was hot but the vegetables had cooled down. It was not even busy, just a few other people. So the veg were cold by the time i ate them. These were cauliflower, broccoli and green beans. The broccoli was crunchy so wasnt cooked properly. Cauliflower i dont eat anyway but was cold and looked tasteless, probably not cooked enough. Green beans were cold. Some pieces of potato were ok but some not cooked thoroughly. I ate the salmon cause it was hot. Terrible customer service. The manager said usually you call for help if you need it! He was too busy chatting and laughing with a customer to even bother to check if my friend and i needed anything or were happy with our food. No wonder the restaurant wasnt busy if the food and service isnt good. The toilets were horrible and toilet not clean. I hate to think what the kitchen is like. Would not be going back and will instead stick to the lovely italian restaurant opposite down the road. Please do not waste your money here.

They obliged and then some, came up with a Linguini Scallops Prawn special with mustard, just for me, loved it. Did not spot a cheeseboard on the menu but asked if they could do me one to accompany the house Red, hey presto a generous bevvy of delicious cheeses arrived with suitable crackers, lettuce and marmalade accompaniments. As Arnie says I 'll be back , hopefully with the family next time.

The staff were so attentive and made us feel so welcome and the food was absolutely wonderful. Tiramisu was a real treat! And we really enjoyed the wine recommendations from the owner. If you want an authentic experience, not a run of the mill chain, then this is the place. Thank you Locanta for blessing Birmingham with your restaurant!
