In Short
Situated at the edge of the Windmill Plaza strip mall, La Locanda seems ho-hum from the outside, but don't be fooled. This place is a favored destination for some of the best Northern Italian food in town. Start with calamari and head into carpaccio, osso buco, lamb, gnocchi, and risotto, as well as the famed tiramisu. Finish up with a snifter of Nocello, a tasty hazelnut liqueur.

La Locanda Ristorante Italiano is as good as you'll find in Scottsdale. I really like their Veal Piccatta and the Lobster Risotto, but my favorite is the Gnocci (truly al dente). La Locanda has a very casual, comfortable feel to the dining room and the food just can't be beat. Friendly staff and a really good dining experience.

Magnifico!!!! Very casual atmosphere. First class service with a touch of familiarity. You feel like in a small rural italian Ristorante. Veal Piccatta is my favorite, also scampi and a large selection of pasta. House wine is very good. !Felicidades!

Thank you Gaetano for the most romantic and wonderful evenings ! This restuarant is so cozy, quaint and reminded me so much of Sicily when we walked through the door. We were truly in heaven. Visiting from Boston (with the great North End), we were right at home., and put La Laconda right up there with Strega in Boston. We loved the atmosphere, your staff and especially the food. You a truly a wonderful host, along with your lovely wife Robin. Your Lobster Risotto was the closest I have had since being in Taormina Sicily and the Proscuitto Risotta was right behind. The simple elegant ambiance of your restuarant made our entire vacation worth coming back for. The Ferraro's
