Love the meat lovers pizza, other dishes are very good too. Service is always poor to mediocre. Atmosphere is ....interesting :-) Food makes it 5 stars, be prepared to tolerate the rest.

I can’t say enough good things about Locanda Wine Bar! From the moment we walked in, the ambiance was warm, welcoming, and effortlessly elegant — the perfect blend of cozy and refined. The wine list is exceptional, with a thoughtful selection of both local California wines and international gems.
Our server, Antonio, truly made the experience unforgettable. He was incredibly knowledgeable, attentive, and had the best recommendations — both for wine pairings and food. You can tell he’s passionate about hospitality and takes pride in ensuring his guests have a wonderful time.
Every dish we ordered was beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. The small plates were perfect for sharing — we especially loved the burrata with heirloom tomatoes and the truffle mushroom flatbread. You can tell the kitchen puts real care into their ingredients and flavors.
Whether you’re a seasoned wine connoisseur or just looking for a relaxing night out, Locanda Wine Bar is a must-visit. With service like Antonio’s and a menu this good, I’ll definitely be back!

What a great experience! Food A+ Service A+++ thank you Luigi! Cocktails A+ Ambiance A+ We went for my husband's birthday and they were wonderful. The complimentary gelato was an amazing finish. Thank you Locanda!

Good food service attentive but slow convenient downtown location. Creative menu and craft cocktails.

Oh gosh it felt like a five star restaurant. Love the atmosphere servers are amazing, and love the Italian music playing you can hear and see the servers dancing and singing to the lyrics. Drinks are amazing, very casual. Tell them to slow or speed the service up at you timing. We suggest to slow it down and enjoy. We not once picked up our phones. We need to slow down and not be so rushed in life enjoy where you are. It's our go to place when craving good healthy Italian food. The food alone is amazing; but it's such a great atmosphere, we prefer indoors to watch the staff. However, outside is enjoyable, Livermore has such great weather compared to the Valley.

The staff is always so friendly. Love the food but it would be nice to have a change in the menu
Rami
The staff was amazing and the vibe of the Resturant was great. But the food was below average. If they do better with the food, it will be a great place.

It's a busy restaurant lots of people sitting indoors and outdoors. Waiters going every which way. Food was delicious I had the branzi ( sauce was a light buttery lemon sauce) my husband had the salmon. All was good.

It was a special anniversary dinner so we wanted everything to be perfect. We sat down and no one addressed other than pouring water for 15 minutes (unacceptable). Finally we got to order wine and an appetizer. The wine came 10 minutes later. The food was excellent but the service lacked significantly. I believe Gino, our waiter, was new but he shouldn't be out there by himself serving customers yet.
I love locanda!! The staff are amazing, and the food was outstanding. It was my mother birthday, and It was her first time at locanda. She fell in love with this restaurant. When my wife was cold, they offered her a blanket!! Locanda will see us again

First let me say I loved our server. The kitchen staff didn't get our order correct, but, the food was good. The seating is not handicap friendly. The tables are crowded together; very difficult for a wheelchair. The uneven cobblestone is a trip hazard. The manager acted as if my question about accommodation was a burden and something unheard of. I do come more for the ambiance and my family enjoys it. It's not my 1st choice of Locanda locations; but, it's not bad.
