Oh come on. COME…read more ON. Places like this don't exist. Towns like this are in fairytales. Not real life. You can't visit them. You can't sit on the water while the lake laps at the stone while the sun sets and it's like 20 degrees and a balmy breeze ruffles your hair and whispers sweet nothings in your ear and then a 10 Euro bottle of stonkingly good house white arrives followed by spaghetti with clams and grilled lake trout and a fruit de mer risotto packed with so much seafood Japan has sent a ship to try and commandeer it. Stunning. Go for the prixe fixe menus, great value for the restaurants signature dishes.

On our first night in Bardolino we were tired and hungry as we has just travelled all day (by plane…read moreand by train and ultimately by bus) to get there, and after many mishaps, we managed to arrive. We found this place and thought pizza sounded great, so we went for it. The server was really friendly, and like many tourist towns, he seem to speak every language in Europe. After starting with Italian and moving into German, he finally settled on English for us (although he tried a bit of French later as well). We both got the beef carpaccio with truffle and shaved parmesan (because truffle) and a pizza with a spicy sausage and blue cheese (that's each because we're crazy and order the same things). So the carpaccio was really delicious. Thinly sliced, melt in your mouth with plenty of truffles and cheese. The pizzas were also really amazing as the gorgonzola really went with the spicy sausage. We then opted to get a glass of grappa at the end (as you do), and they brought out the longest bottle known to man to pour into our tiny glasses. He accidentally poured way too much into my partner's glass, so I think we got more than we should have. And it turned out to be only 5 Euros a glass, so we got a great deal. It's definitely a bit touristy, but well worth the shenanigans to get a great pizza meal with some great service.

Great place. They…read moreprobably have the best ice cream in Bardolino. It's nice to see that the Italian girls working in this place fluently speak both English and German. Portions are huge! Which for a man is great, whereas a lady might wanna share the ice cream with someone! The location is optimal, in the hearth of Bardolino and with plenty of seats close to the lake. And the atmosphere at nighttime is magic. I would recommend to try the cocktail "Criatallo", a huge cocktail that is extremely good to start a fun night out. I'll go back to this place soon!

Yes! Yes! Yes! The…read moremain thing I learned from our recent holiday to Verona/Lake Garda was to make sure you avoid anywhere that's beach front and head towards the back streets for the best food and drink options. On this occasion, this was a stumbling upon we were very happy to have happen to us - probably about 5 minutes walk from Bardolino beach and promenade. We were on our last day of holiday and after looking forward to a final pizza we didn't bother checking out the rest of the menu and this brought us to 3 pages of exciting pizza and calzone options. We had 2 amazing pizza's for about 20 Euros (my cheese, ham and asparagus one was incredible!) - but as all the people around us were getting their pasta brought out, we had a serious case of FOMO! The pasta and bread looked so good that it's definitely going to have to be one for a repeat visit. *Bonus note - a lovely courtyard out front for watching the world go by*

We had Bruschetta and ham/melon to start which was great and very fresh. This was followed by our pasta dishes; ham and cheese tortellini and spaghetti with cherry tomatoes and chilli. Both pasta dishes were a little underwhelming, the flavours weren't the best but the pasta itself was well cooked. We felt a little rushed to leave but the staff were always friendly. I think this place would definitely be better in the high season.

Viene proposto un ricco menu à la carte, con pasta fresca fatta in casa e piatti a base di carne e pesce fresco di lago e di mare.

We came for a late lunch, at 3pm or so. While other restaurants were closed for the afternoon, we…read morewere greeted very friendly and got an outside table in the center of beautiful Lazise. We had Caprese, Tris de Tartar of three different kinds of fish, and Tagliatelle al tartufo. All ingredients were fresh and prepared very tasty, and though my Italian is very poor, the friendly waiter did his best to communicate with a mix of German, English and of course Italian. Apart from that, the place looked very well maintained; obviously they spend a lot on furniture, dishes and utensils, what you cannot find everywhere. Unfortunately, during our stay at Lake Garda, there was no chance to return, however, I look for an opportunity to go back to Lazise at least for one night and a dinner at Vecchia Dogana.

Stellar food, and staff to match! The place is slightly off…read morethe lake - as in it's about 3-4 buildings from it. If you can handle that (and mind you, you can see the lake if you're sitting outside ) it is *so* worth it coming here - the food is just that good! The pasta is spot-on, with impeccable ingredients, cooked just right. The seafood is sparkling fresh, and mmmm so good And yes, there is an excellent selection of (local) wines - both by the bottle, and by the glass. On that note, the staff is excellent, friendly, helpful, willing to chat if you so desire, and leave you alone if *that's* what you desire. The bottom line - if you're in the 'hood, you should definitely go here!!!
