My husband & I dined here for our 1st wedding anniversary after finding other reviews on Trip Advisor. We were staying in Nesso, so it was a good 45 minute drive, but was worth it. The drive took us in land, where we were able to enjoy other scenery other than the lake. When we arrived we didn't know what to expect from the outside view, which is more or less a door in the side of a wall, however, inside was lovely. It had it's own style, which was a little of everything, & worked on every level. The owner, who was also the chef came to us & helped to translate the menu, we speak little Italian. My husband is a veggie, & he was able to tell us about the meat free dishes.Both our meals were amazing. My husband having cheese to start & homemade fresh pasta with red wine sauce, I had duck to start & steak with a stilton sauce. All the food was amazing, it was fresh, homemade where it could be & delicious. We opted for a white wine, which again was very good. Over all, it was a fabulous experience, wonderful food, with great personal service. The atmosphere was romantic, cosy, & personal. We couldn't recommend this restaurant enough, & encourage a visit during your stay around Lake Como.

Could not get into a restaurant over the road and left feeling a little dispirited but across the road saw two elderly ladies smiling broadly and leaving a small Spanish/Italian restaurant we were warmly welcomed, enjoyed a complimentary bruschetta and then the best grilled meat eaten in Italy then to cap it all a sweet dish of apples in cinnamon chocolate and chilli plus a very pleasant not expensive red wine! We were most impressed and thought the owner looked after us very well.
