Don't let the owner comment on the title put you off. The service is very nice, the food is for gods and the desserts are oh-my-lord good. At the time of paying you'll have to face the woman at the cashier, but that's it.The ice across the street is just as good as the tiramissu at Vesuvio, so... your choice!

What a find! Recommended by Isabella at Arpepe, our group of five were delighted by this perfect restaurant for lunch, beneath the castle ruins and shading us from the hot midday sun under the grapevines. The antipasti dishes were delectable with mushroom salad and figs, salumi of bresaola including horse and venison. All the flavours were so subtle. The pastas and risottos were plentiful and expertly cooked. I especially liked the penne primavera with pesto, potatoes and peas. Sharing nougat semifreddo and one with bitter mountain herbs completed this feast accompanied by superb local wines.

The food was INCREDIBLE as was the view. We expected lovely Italian food but we got innovative, modern takes on classic dishes. We enjoyed their take on sciat, cichoi (pardon the spelling) which featured the abundance of local buckwheat. The local Valtellina wine was a perfect accompaniment. Can't recommend this restaurant highly enough.

Il passatore is one of the few restaurants in Sondrio which we found open in the evening. I had dinner with someone who is allergic to gluten. This wasn't a problem - we were just told we'd wait for some time because they had to change the water used for boiling. This meant that:1- they knew what an allergy is and what to do, even to avoid cross-contamination - professional.2- they were ready to run the "extra mile" for this - customer-oriented.3- they did it without fuss - gentle.Believe me: none of these three can be taken for granted.We had an excellent risotto with cheese, and I also had a delicious home-made chocolate dessert. The menu is quite short, but I found dishes for all tastes - and there is pizza too!Service was courteous, polite and with a smile. The person who was with me felt at ease, despite the allergy - again, something which, alas, doesn't happen all too often.The ambiance wasn't anything special - but the food was!So, yes, I can really recommend this restaurant!

My cousin and I stopped here for a work day lunch. We ordered off the Menu del giorno. It was 10 Euro. I had Zuppa d'orzo, Vitello tonnato and Carole all'olio. Now if you follow me you know I don't eat fish. If you read Italian you know Tonnato is Tuna Fish. I was confused by the use of vitello which usually implies beef, I thought it was small pieces of beef. No it was think cut tuna in a sauce. I ate it. It was that good. It didn't taste fishy nor did it smell fishy. Anyone who knows me knows the general rule, if you don't know what you are ordering don't, however if you order it, unless it makes you sick you eat it. In all circumstances you at least try it. I followed the rules, tried and and liked it. Something for an old dog. Enjoy

You mush try the surprise menu, as many others restaurants in Valtellina should do : a tasting menu with small portions ! Excellent wine list, amazing desserts... Friendly service although should improve as the type or restaurant you expect to get a super professional service but you don't (wine was too hot when arrived, not served as it should, etc.)
