City: Locarno, via Villibaldo Bastoria 13, 6600 Solduno, Locarno, Switzerland
"The ristorante was good, it just continued to fill up so we were pleased we got there early. It seems booking is essential on certain nights. We were there on Friday night. The menu is a little overwhelming to work through, so many set meals,...some exotics like Ostrich, Kangaroo and different grills of meat. When you have a large menu and a party of even just five the discussions, pointing out and debating really takes on a whole show in itself. It is often how funny then people revert to a safer position of what they know as what they could try. Menu's like thois confront you. We had different types of nüsslisalat, then one veal cordon bleu, three went for beef stroganoff and one went for a rump steak. These come with french fries, noodles or spaetzle. I took the beef stronganoff and although the meat was tender and good, the source was far too tomato based, it lacked a balance, little sour cream (if any), lacking worcestershire sauce, less than usual mushrooms and not seasoned well. Now I tend to like a spiced version so even ordering the tabasco it failed to change that overpowering tomotato (some paprika) based sauce. Shame. The stand out one for me was the Veal Cordon Blue- nicely done, just well balanced, cheese was right. That was a clear winner. The steak was a steak. (yawn) Then a follow my lead as we mostly went for Vermicelles, usually served with whipped cream and Meringues. It was but the Meringues were a little on the mean side, the vermicelle also but you got lashings of whipped cream and a scope of icecream. Pity I wouod have liked a decent portion of Vermicella and Meringues and less of the fluff and the puff Good selection of wines, we went for a local one, a White followed by a Red and two of the partly finished it off with a Grappa Good food, a little overwhelmed in service when busy, you have to keep looking and chasing and a menu that I feel could be reduced of all the bells and whistles to make the food coming out of the knitchihn a little more focused to a higher end result. No question it is popular and good but as many become well known, they tend to forget or let slip perhaps on why people go there- the food is good, it just could be better with a little more attention"

"Not a warm welcome. We ordered 4 pizzas and the restaurant owner sighed. Honey goat cheese pizza, without goat cheese and without honey without any word from the cook/server. Otherwise pizza not bad but good"

City: Locarno, Vicolo dei Chiara 1, 6600 Muralto, 6602, Locarno, Switzerland
"Locarno and neighboring Muralto have quite a few good restaurants. But none of them are quite as charming as Osteria Chiara. Located in the old centre of Muralto (a few steps up from the boulevard), the restaurant features traditional Italian dishes, but what sets this restaurant apart is the very friendly couple that make you feel at home. In the winter you can dine next to the fire place and in summer outside on the terrace shaded from the sun."
