La Locanda

Ich habe mich hier sofort wohlgefühlt!

Ein typischer Italiener möchte ich meinen: rot/weiß-karierte Tischdecken, dekoriert mit Essig und Öl plus einem kleinen Kerzchen, Weinregale an den Wänden und leicht wuseliger Betrieb. Dennoch ist der Service absolut professionell und meine Bestellung kommt flink.

Weder am Rindercarpaccio noch an der Qualität des Hausweines lässt sich etwas aussetzen.

Die Karte ist immens groß und mein längst überfälliger Premierenbesuch macht definitiv Lust auf Wiederholung.

Corona-Ängstliche sind hier allerdings falsch, denn mit den Abstandsregeln haben die es hier nicht so.......

I had just taken the train from Antwerp to Hamburg, a very long journey it was... And I was staying at the Renaissance nearby a.k.a. the 'ssaince-licious...

And I was also severely hungover from the night before in Antwerp (too many Belgian beers...)

So really I just wanted some pizza, some vino, and a bedtime situation...

Discovered on yelp-ola, walked here, sat down right away...

Had a bit of a language barrier initially then someone else who spoke perfect english came over and was fine.

Had a delicious pepperoni pizza and some vino...

Brought the pizza home and ate it the next day as a snack.

Everything was right, so just hold tight.

I've been to La Locanda a couple of times. It's quite a popular place - you can usually get a pretty average meal quite cheap. I was never too impressed with pizza or pasta, preferring some other places in the area, but when my colleagues went there I would sometimes join.

I stopped visiting the place after they had served me lasagne that was fridge cold inside and only warmed up on the outside. Pretty disgusting.

A year have passed, so I decided to give it another try. I ordered pizza and spaghetti bolognese. Spaghetti had pretty bland taste, but at least we could eat it.
Pizza on the other hand was just burned. Not only edges looked like charcoal, it was also severely burned at the bottom on the entire surface.

We ate a little fragment and left most of it on the plate. I was curious if the waiter would care to ask why we did not eat the pizza, but he didn't bother to inquire if that's connected to how it looks or tastes.

Finally the waiter decided on his own that he deserves a tip for his service, gave me incomplete change and said "Danke". Only after a moment of me not agreeing to this he gave me the rest of the change.

This place has solid classic italian dishes with a good prive/value.
All Pizzas cost 5.90€ at Lunchtime. Pretty good deal.
Go quite early because it can be crowded at Lunchtime.

One of the best Italian restaurant I've tried so far in Hamburg! Trust me I'm Italian :) Lunches are really cheap, every pizza just for 6€...really good value!

You can enjoy several kinds of Italian pasta. I've tried the "zucchini and salmone" and it was really delicious. Dishes are really huge, you won't be hungry after a lunch at "La Locanda". Insides are a bit small and could become crowded around 12.30, so please consider getting here around 12.

Overall, that's the kind of italian restaurant that I love...simple menu, good food, nice services...I'm feeling at home :)

The food is definitely good for the price but the service is terrible. Service is un-coordinated. Waiters we unsure and asked us thrice for what we had ordered. Food came in quick though. When we had to pay, the waiter took my cash and went away without returning my change, coming back later to return the cash and at the end making a giving me a weird(bad) look and storming off when I didn't understand what he said.

Arriving into Hamburg late we were pretty concerned that we were going to miss out on somewhere to have dinner. A quick look on Yelp guided us to an area nearby with tonnes of restaurants and fortunately this one was still open. We were the last customers of the night by a distance and decided to go for something easy. I quickly picked the spicy salami pizza.

The prices were crazy cheap. 7 euros for a big thin base pizza. The pizza tasted incredible. Flavour perfect, not to heavy and just enough spice. I had it with a pint of holsten and it went down surprisingly well.

This is a no frills straightforward Italian style restaurant. Staff were fine, but not overly friendly. Still it was 10pm at night when we wondered in so who can blame them. Pizza was great and at a bargain price to. Great little place if you fancy a cheap & tasty, quick bite to eat.

This is one of my favourite lunch spots. I cannot understand how their pizzas and pasta dishes costs less than 6 €. Maybe I don't want to know... According to my Italian co-worker, this is authentic Italian food. Do not expect extraordinary food or service considering the price though.

The interior is also kind of messy and full of tables. This means that it gets very crowded during lunch time, and quite warm. The service is still fast considering the amount of people that they serve here. I might sound negative, but I'll still regularly go here and I have been satisfied every time. If you want hearty Italian food, I don't think you'll be disappointed either.

I see why all of the Italians at the office rave about this place. It's probably not going to be the best meal that you've ever eaten, but it's going to be good, and it's going to be cheap.

My wife and I stopped in for dinner around 6:15 on a Friday night without reservations and we were seated immediately. She got pizza margherita, I had the pasta bolognese, and we had a half liter of wine. Everything was really tasty, and we left quite full.

I didn't really pay attention to the prices, and so when we got the check I was mentally expecting €40 or so. It ended up being €24.20. For that price, this place really can't be beat.

I've been hearing about this place for a while, as it is very popular among my co-workers. Now I understand why! The prices are very reasonable (~6 EUR) for a good meal, and the quality is good. It also accommodates large groups comfortably (today we were 9).
I had the pasta with ragu and mushrooms. The meat was tender and the mushrooms were well cooked. Overall a great executive lunch experience.

A nice Italian restaurant which is not pricey with good service too!
I've been there several times whilst working in Hamburg and tried it out as it was near to my hotel :)
My last visit I had a lovely mushroom risotto, which arrived reasonably quickly and with a nice relaxed feel in the restaurant, dining alone didn't intimidate at all...food was good, service attentive and would definitely recommend for a casual and enjoyable dinner!
