From the welcome through every course and bite, both the food and service absolutely lived up to Michelin's 2 stars. In our opinion, the few things keeping this outstanding restaurant from a third star...the dessert straw should have been edible, more elegant cutlery for the veal dish, an elegant pen to sign the check, a box of take away truffles..

Went as couples tonight. The food was creative, tasty and well presented. However, when we asked about side dishes; as there were none on the menu, we were told our mains came with vegetables. They did and they were good, but they were so minimal. We needed more to complete the meal. Desert of panacotta was also small and not up to par.

Dinner was extremely good. Why then no "excellent" review? Because the prices were quite high relative to portion sizes in this nearly 120-year-old restaurant a stone's throw from Domodossola (I was surprised by the overall high prices in this area but maybe I need to get out more). We had a table all alone, outside. This was our fault, though, as we hadn't reserved in advance. Despite this, the service was outstanding. We enjoyed the breadsticks with sage butter and vanilla-infused salt. One of us had a "primo" consisting of a raviolo (a giant ravioli, as we would say in English) with ricotta, lemon and ginger and the other of us had a fantastic dish of grilled beef cubes in a yogurt and green tea sauce. I enjoyed a spectacular glass of Prunent wine, a Nebbiolo variety that is only grown in this valley in Italy. For dessert I enjoyed the "delizie in spuma" which is a layered dark and white chocolate mousse. FYI, "rusumada" is similar to zabaglione.

A short hike from Cannobio, this restaurant is a gem hidden in the forest. The atmosphere is lovely, and staff very friendly and attentive.
Lunch (3 courses) was delicious, and beautifully presented.
Would absolutely recommend this for anyone looking for a little excursion, great food combined with an easy hike.

Good food and good personal service. It is however a good idea to ask prices of specials before you order the; we were quite surprised to find out the price of the lobster, which was very good by the way but also not cheap. But, a good place to have dinner.

It was the second time that we could afford this fancy restaurant at the outskirts of Varese. One of the reasons was definitely also the fact that they offer gluten-free food/pasta but the main reason is the high quality of the food, the service, how the table is decorated, etc. Only when being seated inside, you see that they would need to improve a bit the interior (for ex., wall painting).
The food is definitely excellent, the service perfect. What should we say more: if you know a bit how to distinguish ordinary (good) food from extraordinary (good) food, then you should try this restaurant. It is worth the money (though you have to leave some amount of it ...).

The location is nothing special, but inside the ambience is quite pleasant.
Food is very good: excellent risotto prepared in many ways, good pastas and main courses served in generous sizes. In once occasion actually the portions were a bit too large.
Anna is very charming: welcoming and kind with all guests as well as professional.
Prices are correct. All in all a very positive experience.
It is often very busy, so Reservations are recommended.
