La Locanda

The exterior may not draw you in, but fantastic Northern Italian cuisine, attentive service, and welcoming ambience make you wish you never had to leave. From start to finish, the menu offers a wide range of excellent choices. Tonnaccio affumicato (smoked ahi with smoked salmon dressing) and calamari al carbone are among the starters; entrees include risotti alla boscaiola (porcini mushrooms, vegetables, parmigiano cheese, and white truffle oil) and ossobuco. Although dessert may seem an extravagance, diners simply can't pass up expertly prepared tiramasu.
