They seated us outside and the views during the daytime are just incredible. It felt so peaceful and relaxed :) I enjoyed a stuffed pasta dish while my fiance had lake fish with vegetables. Both of our dishes tasted very fresh and flavorful; not too heavy for a lunchtime meal and we left feeling satisfied. Definitely a great meal, plus this place is located just a short walk away from the beautiful Villa Carlotta!

Impeccable and friendly service with a true chefs tasting menu, be sure to make a reservation as the restaurant is small. Choose from a 1, 2 or 3 course meal, with dessert being additional, we came here twice and all menu items were amazing. The ravioli with stracchino, black truffle, mountain butter and parmagiano reggiano was my favorite. Mom loved the risotto with roasted onion semi dried tomato and basil. Interesting items such as the Catfish appetizer and complimentary seasoned herbed ricotta on a rice chip had interesting and unexpected flavors. Truly, don't miss this one.

During the warmer months dining on the terrace while taking in the gorgeous view of the mountains and Como Di Lago is a lovely experience. Fresh melon, prosciutto and local cheeses and a bottle of regional red wine to start. The roasted rabbit, Pizzoccheri, tender rich gnocchi, and polenta uncia were all delicious. Should you choose to avoid the more touristy spots while in the area, this is a solid choice to enjoy regional fresh dishes in a relaxing atmosphere.

Highly recommend if you're trying to get a more authentic experience than the big hotels.

A reservation is a must . The staff is very friendly , happy and attentive. We started with appetizers and wine . I had the Bresaola rocket and parm this was thinly sliced pieces of beef , somewhat like prosciutto, on a bed of rocket with pieces of Parma cheese, just so delicious! My daughter had Lake fish tartare she said was amazing! For our main dish I wanted something simple so went for the Baked Chicken sliced fried potatoes . The chicken was so tender and perfectly seasoned . Was surprised to get the fries , which were delicious and crispy but was expecting a roasted potato . Spaghetti with lake fish carbonara was my daughter's selection which she loved ! Everything we had was prepared well and presented beautifully !

It was a very hot day and we asked for extra ice for our drinks, which the waitress brought without hesitation. It's a great stop, in fact I think the best stop, if you are looking to eat before/after visiting nearby Villa Balbianello. The food here is well made and reasonably priced. It's not gourmet cuisine nor does it pretend to be. We tried several dishes and everything was well made and delicious. If I was in the area, I'd definitely return. Food: 4 stars Ambiance: 4 stars Service: 4.5 stars Pro tip: if you are visiting the Villa take the express walkway directly to the restaurant. Look at a map app and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Where do I even start. I guess this place got really popular from TikTok and a friend wanted to go…read morebased on that. Little did we realize TikTok folks have sense of taste. The beef tartare was off putting and gave me an impression of what dog food would be like. The special zucchini flower was way too watery and overpriced for what it was. The flambé was just over powered by the mustard flavors and was cooked unevenly. For the price point you'd think it would be more refined. The saving grace for this review and only reason I gave it a 2 stars was that service was not bad and the sautéed mushrooms. We should have gotten that as a risotto or pasta. We could have eaten that all night. Overall for the price point of this place we do not recommend unless you're trying your hand at influencer life who have no taste buds.
