La Locanda Del Duca
Latest Reviews
We visited La Locanda last Tuesday evening for my Fathers Birthday celebrations,and we were very impressed with this restaurant.The food was superb,the atmosphere was wonderful and the service was just top notch,The owner who also owns the restaurant next door which is also very good,was very hands on,making sure everything was going to plan.The food was superb,the service in my opinion is what sets this restaurant apart from others and makes it a must go to especially for special occasions. It would be difficult to find a better restaurant in Eastbourne.

We had walked a section of the South Downs Way, and this restaurant provided a fitting climax to the holiday. The place was very busy with tourists and locals, so booking would certainly be advisable. I really enjoyed a veal dish with a cream and mushroom sauce, and my 2 friends were equally happy with their selections. I just wish I had left a bit of room for dessert. Service was impeccable, making for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.

Four of us had dinner here to celebrate my dad's birthday. Warm greeting on arrival, great choice of menu and very reasonably priced. Service was attentive, food arrived quickly and was delicious. A lovely evening. Guess you'd need to book it was packed all evening.

Found this place from tripadvisor, we were staying in a hotel nearby for a few nights, sadly we didn't eat here on the first night as we would have definitely come back. Booked via telephone day before, it was a Wednesday and it is packed when we arrived at 8, they had allocated a table but fussy boots didn't like it so they were so obliging as to ask to wait a few minutes and indicated another table, just about to be vacated, where they would lay up and seat us, it was perfect. The ambience is very buzzy but no loud music and most of the people seemed PLU and clearly were used to dressing for dinner. Lovely menu, extensive also cocktail menu, which we had found sadly lacking in Eastbourne. Waiters were very professional, timing of the courses just right, lovely wine list and veal was exquisite, my husband had pasta to start and he declared it the best ever, good amount of side dishes and not all served on the plate so that was just right for us. Fresh bread and olives on the table and white napery with appropriate glasses for red, white wine and water. Puds were utterly scrummy and lots of birthday celebrations with cakes, candles and singing. Just wish this was closer to us, one couple we spoke to lived in Tunbridge Wells and had made the considerable journey several times a year just to eat here, can see why. Meal was served freshly cooked, hot and together. Could not fault this place, as was evident from all the other diners, most seemed regular and locals. Excellent price for standard of restaurant, make sure you book, even on a weekday.

We had the set lunch which was excellent value. Good feel to the place. Attentive staff and managers / owners very visible. Entirely deserves its high rating.

Maybe we were unlucky but the Monday night we went (3 friends)our service was not as good as it could have been. The food was suburb but the effect was spoiled by the wait. The owner apologized but customers were still being served before us. I know that no one table is comparable with another but the wait between courses was rather long. Would go back and hope that service improves.

We came on a Saturday without booking and they made all their best to give us a table as soon as possible. We were with our 3 years old daughter.
The food was great, really good Italian food. We chose among the chief choice and were not disapointed. This is definitely a good address.

My wife and I come her quite often and have always been a with the quality of the food and service. My only observation is that in my opinion they should change the menu every 3 or 4 months especially the pasta dishes.

A fabulous evening had here for a friend's 70th. It wasn't a problem for me to ask for a fish without onion or garlic...and I had a beautiful piece of salmon in a brandy and cream sauce. The restaurant was packed but the staff were so helpful and attentive. No over loud music either which meant we could here each other talk. Definitely coming back-delicious

We came here for an evening meal on a Saturday. The service was quick, efficient and friendly. The food was wonderful, I had King prawns for a starter and Ravioli for main, they were both delicious. Prices were absolutely fair. It was a very busy evening, at least 3 birthday parties going on, with a lovely family atmosphere.
It was a little noisy and busy for me, but being a Saturday evening at such a popular restaurant I should have realised that would be the case!I shall definitely eat here again but maybe on a weekday or a lunchtime.
The toilets were spotlessly clean.

We visited with six friends who all used to live in Spain. We had previously eaten at this restaurant before and enjoyed it so much we recommended it for the reunion dinner and it did not disappoint. The food, service and surroundings were excellent and we had a lovely evening and our friends all agreed. Excellent value. Thank you.

Have eaten here several times before and always found the staff helpful and friendly.
Quality fare, without breaking the bank.Super starters of minestrone and calamari.
Steaks were perfectly done. The calves liver with bacon melted in the mouth. All came with vegetables, but the extra we ordered, the deep fried battered thin slices of courgette was fantastic.Decent range of desserts, and wine list.
Deserves it's excellent rating.

If you like real Italian food in a buzzy setting, La Locanda should fit the bill perfectly. Food is great and reasonably priced. Good wine list. Service attentive. Happy Birthday singalongs with cake can be discretely arranged. If you are in a group and people want to pay individually (in my experience this can sometimes end in tears) guests are given a number and staff do the rest. A really nice place.
