On our first night in the town of Lezzeno on Lake Como, tired from a full day of exploring in Varenna, we elected to stay close to our rented apartment for dinner. The Trip Advisor reviews concerning Crotto del Misto combined with the recommendation we received from the manager of our rental apartment made Crotto del Misto a good candidate for our evening repast.The entrance to the restaurant is down a lengthy driveway below street level. On this trip to Italy, we were accompanied by my 93 year old mother-in-law. To say the least, the walk down the steep driveway presented a bit of a challenge. We entered and were pleasantly greeted and escorted to a table flanked by a wall of windows looking out over Lake Como. It was just before sunset and as the sun went down the view got increasingly dreamy with the lights of the towns across the lake sparkling in the night and reflecting off the water. Ambiance "A+".We were served by two extremely friendly and efficient individuals who attended to our every request. Between the four members of our group, I believe we sampled appetizers, the local fish, pasta and meat dishes. The house wine was excellent. At the end of our meal I enjoyed a tasty espresso and we were all treated to complimentary Limoncello after dinner drinks - superb!Food and Drink "A"After enjoying this beautiful venue and such excellent food and drink, we didn't think the night could get any better. That was until our waiter went above and beyond his duties by offering to bring his small SUV down the narrow and precipitous ramp to give my 93 year old mother-in-law a ride back up top to where our vehicle was parked. It is this very type of consideration, kindness and basic chivalry that makes me so very proud of my Italian heritage. Kindness and Courtesy "A++"I can guarantee any reader of this review that my next visit to northern Lake Como will undoubtedly include a visit to Crotto del Misto. They have earned both my loyalty and my respect.

After climbing up to the Sanctuary we decided we deserved lunch. Found il Grifo by chance. Promptly shown to a table, orders taken and drinks served. Lots of locals which is always a good sign. We had the daily menu of saffron risotto and then an extremely tasty bit of veal on polenta. Generous portions. Nothing fancy but very enjoyable.

Had a lovely last evening in Bellagio. Walked from Hotel du Lac to the restaurant, following the lovely lake path to an incline that worked off calories soon to enter our bodies. As we approached the beautiful al fresco dining area we saw several police cars and learned later in the evening that the very discreet staff had been serving a politician or government official in our midst. At the end of his meal, whoever-he-was had a police and security escort as he left. (It is a sign of the staff's professionalism that no other diners knew he was there and the person suffered no interruptions.)The service was exemplary....timing, manners, attitudes. This restaurant was extremely kind to me, a person with celiac disease, and offered an alternate bread basket, lovely GF pasta with white truffles and options for other courses. They had a can-do attitude about making my night just as special as my husband's food-wise. You don't forget places that treat you like this.The food was wonderful...three courses and dessert ....not the tasting menu. We chose a la carte. The wine professional was knowledgeable and assisted with a great selection from three my husband had narrowed down. My husband collects wine but always like to lean on local expertise and try something new when vacationing....the gentleman who assisted was professional and loves his job. We had fun watching a neighborhood dog (VERY well-behaved), waiting down the road for any leftovers that came his way. Precious!Thanks for a great evening with a special setting that cannot easily be matched.

Very good restaurant, good food, good ambience, friendly and efficient service, and reasonably priced. The only negative would be shortage of parking should you drive there!

Horrible experience. Do NOT go here! The food is really awfull. We had the full fish menu and all the dishes were 100 percent trash. I almost puked by eating the fish antipasti and the fish risotto. Just please dont mix Fish and rissoto When we got the bill they even charged us extra for switching our desserts for sorbet to tiramisu even though they agreed to do it when we ordered. When I confronted the waiter she was resistent to change the bill.

I read the reviews and learned two important things. Even the bad reviews said the food was great. And, the owner takes things to heart. So I followed the TripAdvisor advice and booked a table. What a great choice! Nice garden sitting, lots of space, quick service. They make their own beer and itâs delicious! Original menu, Italian fusion I guess... Every dish was a celebration of quality and tastes. Really, this place is worth a detour. Very different cuisine to most âtraditionalâ restaurants in the area but nonetheless local, fresh and totally excellent.

Some of the locals we met raved about Il Cris but I wasnât impressed. Restaurant is a bit off the beaten path, up a hill that affords nice views of the lake. There is ample seating area inside and a large patio with outdoor seating - both covered and uncovered (see pic).I started with pasta with branzino and then had the lamb chops. By Italian standards, I felt both dishes were average. Service was fine but did leave something to be desired.

I am writing this review to follow on from Simon Browns review as I was sitting at this table. The restaurant came back to that review with a rude and completely untrue set of statements. When we received our meal my motherâs was lukewarm so when a waiter came pass She asked for it to be sent back. At the time we had ordered some salad so she put it on her plate to eat with her meal. After almost 15 minutes her meal finally came back. It had clearly just been microwaved, but they couldnât even be bothered to take off the small bit of salad of bread off the plate so that was also hot. After complaining about the cold food we were told that it was our mothers fault as she had been feeding her children, but I think her 14 and12 year old sons were able to feed themselves just fine. For not a great meal we found it was really overpriced. I needed to write this review as Simons review had been twisted to make the restaurant look like the victim of this bad meal. Be weary that some of the responses are probably a load of lies as the response to Simons review was disgustingly untrue.The fruit never falls far from the plant, such a father as a son. I have already responded to your previous review and have no time to waste with a kid. I have to work here ...
