You might be gazing into gorgeous lake Lugano from high on a mountain perch but the vibes are definitely Cuba, sitting in a corner table and knowing a man is not made for defeat. It's better to be lucky. But would rather be exact. Then when luck comes you are ready. And you'll certainly be lucky to find yourself exactly at Havana Deck.

Service and ambiance were quite nice considering the tourist trap location in Lugano. We dropped…read moreby at 6:30pm to an empty restaurant on Sunday but was warmly greeted and seated. When I queried the server whether they were really open, he said of course, just that most people didn't stay for dinner on Sundays. So, the two of us ordered two pastas and a pizza to share. The pastas were just passable, with noodles that were past al dente and arrabbiata sauce that was rather lacking in Calabrian peppers and garlic. Still, the server was quite proud of his trick of adding some brandy to top off the pasta. That probably helped but couldn't rescue the pasta. The pizza was better, as it came fresh off the oven. At least, we lucked out as the neighboring table was presented with two blackened lumps of dough that obviously had to be sent back. In a pinch, this will do, just don't expect quality Italian food despite the proximity.

I very much enjoyed the pizza and look forward to returning to Lugano and checking in with Mary again for another pizza. It was a great meal then and will return hopefully in the near future.

Amazing views, and solid food. But very overpriced. You pay for the view here. The staff was fine.read more

(no paper towels in the bathroom--maybe one could pop over to the petrol station for a hand wash?) kinda joint filled with regular custies where one sees the unvarnished side of Lugano life. Actually, a friend recommended this place and referred to it as 'classy,' but I think he meant 'klassy.' Sometimes one can't always read sarcasm in emails. This was one of those times. There was something resembling a car boot sale spread out over a few tables on the patio the Friday night we were there. Had I wished to purchase a laser pointer or a deck of cards, then I would have been all set. The two other reviewers mentioned there being grub at this place, but I neither saw nor smelled food, so I'm not sure if that is still the case. Fill your tank, then grab a beer?

Casino is nice and clean, not too noisey. Has roulette tables and blackjack , entertained myself on that for a few hours. Dealers are cool and friendly, while they're taking your money.. is all fun and good. Don't expect a Las Vegas style kind of place. Is still cool though, enough to satisfy that itch to gamble...

What took us to this restaurant in the first place is parking space... we wanted to go to few other…read morerestaurants but we quickly learnt that parking can be a nightmare in Lugano. We called, booked a reservation, drove to Tabla. Found immediate parking in front of the restaurant. As soon as we entered we were greeted, seated and service began promptly. Ambiance was good. We decided to try the 6 course vegetarian tasting menu and to our surprise the food was delicious!! We did not expect to have such delicious, flavourful food in Lugano. We started with samosa which had a very unique flavour, that set the course for what to expect from the experience. Our favourite was their version of Dosa and the vegan rose kulfi. Least favourite was dahi puri. Everything else tasted... (is sophisticated a word that can be used to describe flavour? Then that would be it) Overall we loved it! Gagan was kind to come and introduce himself and make sure everything went well. If you visit Lugano, definitely give this place a try!

Wonderful food and spectacular views…read more We first chose this restaurant the evening we arrived in Lugano because it was within the Hotel Villa Sassa where we were staying. Then we discovered that it was a favorite of a friend who is a Lugano resident, and she joined us for dinner. The food was wonderful and the views were spectacular. We ended up eating here two of the three nights we were in Lugano. As others observed, the menu isn't extensive, but that is often a good sign that what is served is fresh and well prepared. A pea soup was spectacular, and the seafood was wonderful. Service was very attentive and professional. Our friend rates this one of the best restaurants in Lugano.
