Iâ¬"ve eaten in La Lombarda several times and the quality and service have been pretty good every time. The service has been slow at times, but Iâ¬"ve only ever eaten there on weekend nights, so I couldnâ¬"t say what itâ¬"s like on quietr nights. The food is generally pretty good, although some of the sauces are a tad bland and needed plenty of salt and pepper. Iâ¬"ve always found the staff to be very friendly and eager to please, which I think makes up some for the slow service, and they tend to be quite knowledgeable about ingredients and the wine list. I would recommend La Lombarda for a romantic evening out or a dinner with friends but itâ¬"s not particularly child friendly]]> Fri, 22 Aug 2008 19:16:14 +0000 /review/uk/aberdeen/restaurant/1d13w6u/la-lombarda-restaurant/1v0bk81336782822 Darla24 57.148516967465 -2.0941689491401 http://trustedplaces.com/review/uk/aberdeen/restaurant/1d13w6u/la-lombarda-restaurant/1a6767

La Lombarda seems to be a very up-and-down sort of place, though for the last few years it has been mainly down. I went there for dinner in December - wouldn't have been my first choice of Italian eatery in the town - Panino offers great food and great value - but a friend booked it so gave it a shot. I ordered vegetarian cannelloni and friends ordered carbonara, lasagne and veal. The veal came, somewhat bizarrely, with a portion of spaghetti bolognese on the same plate. The carbonara was, in my friends words 'alright'. The lasagne smelled like tinned bolognese and apparently tasted not dissimilar. My cannelloni was without question the most disgusting thing I have ever been served. It came in a dish, invisible under a watery tomato sauce with chunks of vegetables in it. It had a processed 'packet' sort of taste. When I eventually found the cannelloni, it disintegrated on my fork and was utterly vile. Dreadful. It was just mush. I sent it back immediately. The waiting staff were pleasant and offered me a dessert or complimentary drink but I refused. I felt so sick that I just wanted to leave. And it was not cheap. The quality of food was absolutely appalling - none of us were impressed and definitely will not be returning.]]> Sun, 24 Feb 2008 11:56:26 +0000 /review/uk/aberdeen/restaurant/1d13w6u/la-lombarda-restaurant/1a67672048967931 mrsdallas 57.148516967465 -2.0941689491401
