What an amazing evening! I’ve had the pleasure of dining at this old New York gem a couple of times over the last few months, and Caiden at the bar has made it an extraordinary experience, even feel at home. I first came to Laconda with my family in 2012 for a birthday and had an amazing dinner. Now over 10 years later they still have some of the best Italian food, service, and drinks in the city. Caiden got me up to speed on the menu changes, and helped make this celebration unforgettable. Starting off with the champagne coutier and sheep’s milk ricotta— this combo will leave you dreaming about it for weeks to come. Other apps worth recommending are the exquisite (melt in your mouth) wagyu steak tartare and the perfectly balanced insalata Andrea. All of the mains are great, but Locanda prepares pasta like it’s Italy. Grandmas ravioli are delightful, although I wish it came with more sauce, and the lamb ragu papardelle is my favorite. Rich, delightful, creamy, I thought I was already full but devoured the whole plate. The prime NY Strip steak is fine but I’d recommend apps and pastas route to get the most out of the experience. I also must commend Caiden the bartender, we had the best espresso martinis of our lives with their home style creamy tiramisu for dessert. Thank you Locanda for holding what feels like golden age New York, with delicious food, amazing drinks, and undeniable service. Be back soon!
