"What a hidden gem! We had a lovely time at Locale last night celebrating our wedding. The food was delicious - we particularly enjoyed the ragu and the tiramisu. Staff were really friendly and attentive as well (special shoutout to Sophie and the gentleman whose name we unfortunately didn’t get!). W"
"Our friends suggested and booked this restaurant for lunch on Saturday. Lovely ambience, welcoming atmosphere and staff and lovely service. Unfortunately the food fell really short of our expectations. 3 of the 6 oysters we ordered (with finger lime) were so so tiny and hardly had any finger lime on"
"Top notch food with great service. It’ll be nice if they can upgrade their outdoor seating so it feels more comfortable to sit outside."
