I love Italian food! And I love a great Italian restaurant! It took four years for me to even try out Locanda Vecchia. Formally known as the Montville Inn, Locanda Vecchia has both great Italian food and is a perfect restaurant! The service was outstanding! Terrific table radar. The food came out perfectly timed between courses. We didn’t feel rushed. The renovations inside are awesome and impeccable! Beautiful arches, color scheme was perfect for romance or a lovely dinner gathering. I loved that they paid homage to the old Montville Inn by utilizing their etched wine glasses. 🍷 From appetizers through dessert everything was delicious and cooked to perfection. The bartender was also creative. The drinks were really tasty.🍷🍸 Thanks Locanda Vecchia for a great night out ❤️👍🏽👍🏽 We’ll be back more often!!

The ambience of the location was lovely. We sat outside on a beautiful porch however, the road could get noisy at times. The service was five star excellent service and very attentiveness. Some of the food tasted authentic and I appreciate it. Other things were very spicy and not very authentic, overall good experience though

This is a high end Restraunt and people should dress accordingly this place needs to have a dress code We were dining here, Saturday night, while some people walked in in shorts and a T-shirt while the wife was wearing denim, jacket, sweatpants, and sandals this would be fine for a diner but not a place like this restaurant needs to implement a dress code and tell people sorry you’re not dressed appropriately. We can’t see you.

First time at restaurant. Sat outside. Very heavy traffic on roads. A bit noisy. Staff excellent. Very attentive and knowledgeable. Food was incredible. Wife had Cod, I had the sole with mussels. We were both thrilled with our dishes. The appetizer and desert were delicious. We will be back.
