We were escorted into the "cellar" which sported walls from 565 A.D.! The restaurant has been in his family for 7 generations and is touted to be the oldest operating hotel/restaurant in the world. The food & drink did not disappoint with local wines, cheeses & seafood. All was excellent including the very attentive staff. If you are in the area, this is a must to visit.

We had a rental car and drove up into the hills above town for lunch at Trattoria Baita Belvedere after finding it on Foursquare, which turned out to be an inspired recommendation. Perched high above Bellagio in Chevrio, the restaurant feels wonderfully intimate and unmistakably family-run, with warm hospitality, rustic surroundings, and fantastic regional food. Above all else, the view is breathtaking. From the terrace, Lake Como opens beneath you in an immense sweep of blue water, mountains, and tiny towns along the shoreline, giving you an entirely different sense of its scale from what you experience down in Bellagio. Sitting there over lunch, looking across that extraordinary landscape, remains one of my clearest memories from a place that already feels almost impossibly beautiful. If you arrive in Bellagio by ferry, the restaurant offers a shuttle from town; however you get there, making the climb into the hills is absolutely worth it.

We ate here twice and food was very good. Had the same meal each time which barely happens. First…read morenight we had reservations and the second didn't. That was our mistake. So Make a reservation. The place is pretty big with limited inside seating. Although most is covered. Service was great from both servers on both nights. Never felt rushed. We ordered the long pizza and salad to share. The salad was a simple big bowl of fresh arugula and we dressed it ourselves with a bit of lemon juice, oil and a white balsamic vinegar. Perfect. We altered the pizza a bit and omitted the tuna and replaced with thinly slice red onions that went with roasted peppers, artichokes and mushrooms. We expected it to come all mixed together and we were wrong. Individual sections each having its own veggie. It was fantastic. Highly recommend. Pizza, salad with cocktails and nice tip about $60 Ch. just remember to make reservations.

I was in Bellagio for Asif A.'s wedding, and the day before the wedding, Eric R. and others were canyoneering and rappelling. Asif A. told me this is his favorite restaurant in Bellagio, so I joined him for lunch with four others. We sat on the patio and my seat was right next to the water. The server was very patient and friendly. We ordered a half liter of white wine and appetizers of caprese and bresaola. The bresaola also came with pork (oops...) but I focused on the unbelievable mozarella in the caprese salad. I ordered the gnocchi with flame roasted octopus and baby olives. It was pure heaven - the gnocchi tasted like pillows of angels or something. I now know why gnocchi is so hot on Top Chef because it tastes nothing like the packaged stuff I am used to in the U.S. The place is known for lake fish, so Asif A. ordered perch with curry and rice, and I tasted it - wow! David W. shared with me smoked trout from his salad, which was similar to nova. David S. ate some of mine but did not share his duck - I did take a picture of his dish though, as it looked delicious! Robin B. had the sea bass and it definitely looked good (special of the day). The whole menu sounded good and I would definitely have returned if I stayed longer. We had leftover bread at the end of the meal so the server told me to feed it to the birds in the lake. I tossed bread for the ducks and swans, a fun way to end the meal. The setting was gorgeous and I am so glad I was able to discover this hidden gem.
