"This was my wife and I’s favorite restaurant during our visit to Lake Como! I think its a must go. The only con is the road can be loud at times due to people speeding by but still in a beautiful location. The staff was very knowledgable, nice and spoke great English. What does all the talking is the incredible food. Every dish we had was executed very well. We can't stop thinking about the spaghetti with tomatoes and basil, it seems so simple but they let the ingredients sing. The duck was one of the best ducks I have ever had. How they present the dishes is Michelin like. If you are in the area you need to go, you won’t regret it!"

"We only stopped here for a quick lunch, got pizza and then left but our experience was pleasant. Service was good, food was good, and luckily it was open (apparently it's hard to find open businesses during the middle of the day here in Lake Como). Would recommend."

Guide to Traveling Lake Como
The options on property are great, but also Helvetia down the street from the hotel is a good causal choice. Ask for Peter or Roberto :)
