It came as a recommendation…read moreto me by my friend who's local to Bergamo, the restaurant is at the top of the town so you have to drive up a bit. The gnocchi we got was absolutely perfectly cooked, the flavor was phenomenal. The polenta was also absolutely divine, I've never had anything like it, the sage in the dish was excellent. The service was perfect and the ambiance was exactly beautiful for the little trattoria on the hill in Bergamo. I genuinely LOVED this place and the meal was so memorable and special, I highly recommend everything about it.

Great Scenery, Friendly, Superb Food!…read more What captured our attention was the great scenery of the lake as we sat down, waiting for our orders to come through. The reception was heartwarming. Every course was nicely done and presented especially the homely pasta and dessert which we had. Perfect place to spend your summer as you can dine outside as you watch the sun go down. What stood out for us was the peach cake dessert that was to die for. The staff was quite friendly and always smiling. Everything on their menu is quite affordable and the dining area though small but cozy. Although the WiFi was slow, we didn't mind since we only we'd gone to unwind before catching our flight. Would definitely recommend Locanda del Boscaiolo to anyone visiting Bergamo. The local fish was nicely done, which we had for dinner. The wine was incredible and was suggested to us by Mario our host. Kudos to the staff for their superb reception. Looking forward to another visit.

It was a healthy sized portion and I ended up eating only a bit of my pasta and took the rest home; it - a combination of butter sauce and mushrooms atop flat squares of pasta - was good, too. For some weird reason the restaurant kept the outdoor heaters on, even though I asked them to turn mine off on this warm, beautiful day, but they eventually turned it off as the crowd thinned. Prices were reasonable and the service was decent, and the outdoor seat I occupied was very comfortable and provided a good view of the world going by. Memo to parents w/ kids: it's great that you're taking your little ones out to dine in public, but please teach them, and enforce their, manners when doing so. We can do w/o your toddler's pounding rocks on the table, and screaming "Nonna!" every 3-4 minutes while you gaze, transfixed and oblivious, at your cellphone. If you're going to introduce your child to polite, public society, then please make sure he's polite himself, and don't hesitate to correct his bad manners before I or some other person bothered by his misbehavior does so. Capisce? Grazie!

This is a really good restaurant. We were only in Bergamo for one night and found this restaurant…read more If you can eat on the terrace you will have a nice cost feeling.

My third visit here over a period of some six years. Nothing has changed except the food and…read moreservice, which have got better. The views and the staff remain the same: wonderful. This place is set on a promontary overlooking, and offering staggering views of, the city of Bergamo. You need to book early to get a window table, but it's a big restaurant and its attractions go further than the views, so don't be disappointed if you miss out on the table. The menu is seasonal and always local in nature, except of course for the seafish and crustaceans which have to come in by air daily. Expect creamy polenta to be served with your mixed salumi antipasti, or take a Tomino cheese stuffed with Speck from Alto Adige, encased in pastry, and oven-baked. You are in pre-Alp country here, so the food becomes more comforting and feeding. Pasta courses will certainly include the local Casoncelli, a type of ravioli stuffed with mince and finished in the oven with butter and sage. Risotto will be present, and in Autumn it will come with fresh funghi porcini. Mains will sometimes include Goat, always Pork, and if you've already blown a gasket you can just take the grilled vegetables with a light cheese sauce. Desserts are a speciality and the much-maligned Tiramisu is a real delight. There's a choice of 20+ Pizze (lunchtime only) and a superb wine list with local and national wines of serious quality. We were served studiously by Paolo. The staff are a class act. Nicola has been there for years, and is always anxious to help with your choice of wines. The Zani family have owned this 100-year old restaurant since 1978, and are now into their second generation. This way, tradition is born.

The cheese was good, but safe, this cheese will not offend anyone, and the smell won't bother anyone. When traveling in Italy and being a somewhat cheese loving foodie, I had preferred something a bit more exiting. Pasta was okey and the gnocchi good. The service was amazingly slow during our lunch, the place was not busy so I find it annoying that I had to ask several times for my drink and the check. I would not plan another visit to this restaurant.
