What an amazing experience in Como. This was recommended by my booking.com host and I'm so happy…read morethat I was able to make a reservation during my short stay. I was seated outside in the charming alley, with a beautiful historical building in my direct view. The service and food was excellent. My waiter recommended options based on what I wanted and for one person. I ordered delicious white wine, the breaded scallops, seafood and vegetable linguine (sub white sauce instead of the red sauce), and a caramel semifreddo. They also gave me a lemoncello to polish off the meal. I loved every minute and the staff was very friendly. Highly recommended for a delicious seafood meal in Como - they are known for their seafood.

Fabulous. Best meal of my entire trip in Switzerland…read more Price is on the higher end but the food quantity is ginormous. Plus the food quality is high, the service very friendly, and the ambiance warm and welcoming. So all in all, I would say this establishment offers good value despite the higher price point. For main course, I ordered shrimps, my wife the lamb. Both dishes were very tasty. We were told there would be a second serving, and sure enough, after we finished our main dishes, they magically replenished. I don't think the owner will allow you to leave less than stuffed! The most memorable part of the meal for me was the butter bean served as side dish. I am told it comes from their own garden. Attaching a scenic view of the restaurant exterior.

What took us to this restaurant in the first place is parking space... we wanted to go to few other…read morerestaurants but we quickly learnt that parking can be a nightmare in Lugano. We called, booked a reservation, drove to Tabla. Found immediate parking in front of the restaurant. As soon as we entered we were greeted, seated and service began promptly. Ambiance was good. We decided to try the 6 course vegetarian tasting menu and to our surprise the food was delicious!! We did not expect to have such delicious, flavourful food in Lugano. We started with samosa which had a very unique flavour, that set the course for what to expect from the experience. Our favourite was their version of Dosa and the vegan rose kulfi. Least favourite was dahi puri. Everything else tasted... (is sophisticated a word that can be used to describe flavour? Then that would be it) Overall we loved it! Gagan was kind to come and introduce himself and make sure everything went well. If you visit Lugano, definitely give this place a try!
