Locando Ottoesmezzo offers authentic and varied Italian cuisine in an informal atmosphere. The cosy interior is enriched with lilac and red coloured walls adorned with contemporary art. The low wooden seating has comfortable soft cushions to sink into and at sundown the soft lighting takes over.

Start with buffalo mozzarella served with Italian vine tomatoes aromatized with orange and dressed with basil olive oil and Carpaccio of tuna served with Granny Smith apple, lamb lettuce, dressed with chilli and mango. Mains could follow with grilled fillet of sea bass with boiled asparagus and cold fennels salad and roasted rack of lamb served with vegetables in a sauce of mint and pecorino cheese. Italian cheese cake with yolk of eggs, cream and coffee liqueur, and warm chocolate tart stuffed with chocolate sauce and topped with vanilla ice cream round off the meal with a flourish.
