Tribeca's Italian gem: refined Italian fare, adaptable atmosphere, consistently great service. Perfect for almost any occasion.
Willa Moore reviews Locanda Verde, an Italian restaurant in Tribeca that has mellowed with age, offering crowd-pleasing dishes and impeccable service, making it adaptable for various occasions.
This Tribeca Italian restaurant, a long-standing favorite, has matured into a reliably pleasing dining destination, offering a versatile experience from casual drinks to intimate dinners. Known for its crowd-pleasing Italian dishes and impeccable service, it's a go-to for various occasions.
Customers rave about the authentic Italian cuisine, with specific recommendations including the squid ink pasta, scallops, ricotta toast, and lamb meatball sliders. While most dishes receive high marks, the chicken has been noted as average and potentially dry by some. The Sunday pasta dish, featuring multiple meat cuts, was a standout but is no longer offered.
"Highly recommended dishes include the Sardinian Sheep's Milk Ricotta Crostini, Lamb Meatball Sliders, My Grandmother's Ravioli, squid ink pasta with crab, and scallops. The pesto pasta is also praised, though only available during lunch/brunch."
Overall, customer sentiment is highly positive, with frequent praise for the delicious Italian food, charming ambiance, and reliable service. Some recent feedback suggests a decline in quality, but the general consensus remains strong.
