We were enticed by the typical menu which offered the luganighetta ticinese alla griglia con rosti e insalata di stagione. This is a fancy way of saying the grilled local sausages with roasted potatoes and a mixed salad. I thought the food was good and the staff very pleasant. My only complaint is that I found the prices in Locarno outrageous. I'm sure the prices at this restaurant were in line with everywhere else but, honestly, I wasn't expecting things to be so high. As an example, we both had the above-mentioned lunch and I had a bottle of water (very small, something like 1/4 liter) and I think my companion had a small beer and it was almost 49 Swiss francs. The lunches were 19.95 Swiss francs each (decent portion size) and that miniature bottle of water was 4.30 Swiss francs! Again, though, I think these prices were in line with the rest of the town. There is a seating area indoors and out, including a very large room upstairs. The exact address, since I can't seem to update it in the restaurant information, is Largo Zorzi 18.

Not earth shattering, but entirely reliable, and the staff were good and welcoming.
