Probably easier to find by boat and sail up to the dock! Needless to say, the weather was perfect so we ate outside and overlooked Lake Como. Our meal was perfect. We split a first plate which was the black pasta with a type of octopus, smaller than usual. The sauce was yellow tomato sauce, really very good and very different flavor. My entree was a perfectly cooked monkfish in a iight red sauce, with broccoli and potatoes, equally delicious.

The first six dishes came out promptly. The other 5 dishes (5 x pizza) didn't come out at all. We asked what happened to the order and she acted like it was our fault she forgot. Unfriendly and stuck up. Sad but true. No apology, no nothing. Tip: Go across the street. The pizza is just as good and the service much much better!!! Don't go a a group, unless you want one bill.

One of my dining companions ordered the fresh fettuccine with fish ragu and really enjoyed it.

A cab from Cadenabbia to the small pier where the restaurant provided water tax waited was easy. The short boat trip to the only island on the lake only added to the excitement of the meal that was to come. This is a fixed price pre-set menu meal starting with a variety of fresh deliciously prepared vegetables. 8 different veggies including sautéed celery, beans, and other greens. A main course of "trout" salmon. Boned at the table and super moist and tender. An excellent salad, some fried chicken. The food kept coming. Wine was included and was paired perfectly with the meal. House made ice cream and fresh fruit topped of the meal. And the finale. Coffee and a story.
