The particular alley it was on was not as bustling as the others and the outdoor tables looked inviting as we passed by. We ended up dining inside, where we could be seated immediately. The decor was impressive and fun. We went with a local buckwheat noodle dish (pizzoccheri), which had a very unique and earthy flavor. Recommended to grind fresh pepper on it before enjoying. Worth trying if you're adventurous and want to familiarize yourself with the cuisine of the Valtellina valley. We also had a more classic red sauce pasta (lasagne al ragù di carne). Very thin, light, and elegant noodles in both dishes. An excellent portion size for lunch. Service was attentive and outstanding. Stop by for a quiet and delicious lunch in the busy little lakeside village of Bellagio.

And the price was higher than other places you'd find -- when we went it was 4 euros for only one scoop, and in a cup only. The staff at the counter didn't speak English very well, despite this place being right next to the ferry drop off and in the center of the touristy area. They said pistachio is what most costumers get, but banana is their signature flavor. I tried banana and kiwi, and both were good flavor-wise but texture-wise was just so-so -- too runny. If you walk a few steps towards Salita Serbelloni and climb all the way to the top of the stairs and turn left, there's better and cheaper gelato at Gelateria del Borgo.

The scoop game is generous and they have a great variety of flavors. Feel free to sample them before you buy, but just know that it will be a tough choice since there are so many great options. I opted for a double scoop of banana and pistachio and this gelato was like a mini meal all by itself! Could not believe how incredibly rich and creamy this gelato was. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. The gelato bar is located right near the entrance to the restaurant and has its' own separate line and entrance, so you don't have to wait in the restaurant line. Not sure if the gelato customers are allowed to sit on the patio tables, but their patio provides the most beautiful view of Lake Como!

The cocktails are inventive, elevated, and layered with thought, yet the atmosphere is relaxed and elevated while also unpretentious. Andrea, the owner, is part mad scientist (he has his chemistry set in the front window) and part storyteller. He crafts flavor profiles with house-made natural extracts that feel both novel and perfectly balanced. We had a blast geeking out with him about spirits while Satish and the rest of the team kept the night lively with warm hospitality and a bit of history woven into every pour. The naturally flavored home made welcome apertif and little bites were a charming touch, but the real highlight was realizing this wasn't just a drink, it was a total experience.
