    Our server, Pietro also gave us a tour after the meal of the rest of the building which dates back to the Roman era.

It was a very hot day and we asked for extra ice for our drinks, which the waitress brought without hesitation. It's a great stop, in fact I think the best stop, if you are looking to eat before/after visiting nearby Villa Balbianello. The food here is well made and reasonably priced. It's not gourmet cuisine nor does it pretend to be. We tried several dishes and everything was well made and delicious. If I was in the area, I'd definitely return. Food: 4 stars Ambiance: 4 stars Service: 4.5 stars Pro tip: if you are visiting the Villa take the express walkway directly to the restaurant. Look at a map app and you'll see what I'm talking about.

    We were in a slight hurry due to our water taxi departing in 1 hour, and the service staff was…read moregracious enough to let us in 10 minutes before official opening to help accommodate. Our wine, pastas (stuffed ravioli with sage butter sauce and pasta with aubergines and tomatoes) were fabulous. The ambiance was great, quiet, slightly off the main area, and cute inside. We were very impressed with the flavors of everything we had, efficiency of good service, and we would highly recommend this restaurant for anyone in Lenno looking for a great meal experience!

This restaurant is definitely more frequented by locals than tourists, and it's located in something like a strip mall plaza with other businesses (don't know how else to describe this). It has its own parking lot which is nice for those who don't want to have to find their own parking on the street. Also note this restaurant is super close to a bus stop for the C10, so if you're staying in Menaggio, it's easy to get to and from here. We didn't have reservations, but there was an open table so we didn't have to wait. The menu is quite impressive with the variety of pizzas and seafood dishes you can order. Note they do thin crust pizza. We ordered a grilled vegetable dish that came with eggplant and zucchini. I ordered a pizza dish with artichokes, mushrooms, and prosciutto, and to be honest I wish there were more toppings. I much preferred the pizza my husband ordered which came with burrata, arugula, and fresh tomatoes. It was soooo good. The size of the pizzas is also huge!!! The price was great as well. I think mine was 9€ and my husband's was 12€. Next time, I would love to try the spaghetti with mussels!

    Great local place with tasty pasta and simple but delicious pizza. It is nothing fancy but it was…read moreperfect for what we needed.
