Locanta Bar - Birmingham

Family with a group of friends joined for a good food and a few drinks. Service was immaculate, food was tasty and excellent. The service and attention could not be faulted. Really enjoyed the night and the food. Bonus: good decor.

Beautiful, the warmest, cosiest loveliest vibe, felt like you were abroad! Lovely and romantic for couples. 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!

We visited this restaurant I had not been there since 2008. I only wanted a light dinner so I opted for a very light starter .My husband ordered a lovely spaghetti chicken dish .My husband had the house white wine and said it was excellent. I had a glass if merlot which was very good .We shared a lemon cake with ice cream as a desert .The service was excellent as was the ambience and value for money

AVOID if you expect great customer service and warm/hot food. Went there for lunch today. Had the dish from specials menu, salmon, veg with potatoes. 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.

Turned up solo, fancied the Scallops from the Starters specials board, but as a main course. 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.
