We were very lucky that this restaurant took us in even though they are already very busy. We previously went to three other Italian restaurants in the area but was treated very coldly, but the receptionist at Elio Locanda Italiana was very nice and welcoming. We were pretty drenched from the rain and were invited to wait inside first. They first directed us to a sit by the entrance to the kitchen, but after seeing us facing difficulty squeezing into the two seats, they were very kind to shift us to a more comfortable seat in a quieter area of the restaurant. Every staff in the restaurant were on task and we were able to quickly get our food even though the place is packed! When the staff found out that we are sharing the pastas and beef, they informed the kitchen side to split the food for us. The food is very authentic and taste good too! I’ve never been to Italy before but my friend did, and he said it really tasted very much like what you can find in Italy. The restaurant owner also took time to do table service for all the customers, and let us try their unsweetened cakes. Will definitely recommend everyone to try this place.

P.S: if you are a foreigner, do not bother to go to , they are very against foreigners.
