La Rinascente

Reviewed By DeltaDawn2000

Friends took us here and we are forever grateful. la Rinascente is one of the top restaurants in the area so, needless to say, both food and wine were of very high standard. To add to the above, the restaurant room(s) were absolutely beautifully designed with frescoes and a chic feel to it.

Osteria Chiara

Reviewed By 637louiseh

We enjoyed a splendid lunch here on a Saturday - tasty amuses-bouche of local carpaccio, fork-tender osso bucco with a crunchy veggie gremolata and al dente saffron risotto, and a homemade curacao zabaione over vanilla ice cream. Thank you chef Antonio! The service was warm and friendly and all wines on offer have been tasted by the staff. We live here so we can confirm that this is one of the best eateries in town.

Ristorante San Bernardo

Reviewed By GioVale20

We had our marriage reception at the Ristorante San Bernardo and were delighted under every account. Charlotte and her team put together an "Apero Riche" that was amazing for variety, quality and quantity. All our guests were very happy and the day was a complete success also thanks to the fantastic people at San Bernardo. We have visited several other times for drinks and/or dinner and San Bernardo delivers consistent high quality at (very) affordable prices. Many thanks Charlotte & team and keep up the excellent work.

Al Grottino

Reviewed By jocoiner

Tripadvisor's advice proved more than right. A typical ticinese atmosphere with outstanding food. We were pampered with excellent food in the next door five star hotel restaurant of the albergo Orselina and wanted something more local. This was the right choice: I had a tasty sepia dish of highest standard as a starter, my companion chose a pasta dish with tomato vodka sauce, also outstanding. The main course was less extraordinary, a good portion of roastbeef with an excellent tartar sauce and a typical beef stew with port sauce and a remarkable polenta. The portions were so genereous that we could not eat a dessert, unfortunately, because the home-made caramel flan looked so tempting. A good Merlot from the region accompanied this sarisfying local meal. The lady who served us spoke fluent German and English and was ever so polite. The price was moderate. Good value for money. We will defintitely be back.

Reviewed By mvandenbroek

We were advised by a friend to have supper here, so we booked a table. It is good that we did that, because it turned out that the small place was full in the evening. No wonder, the service and food are excellent! Also the atmosphere is special: It feels like being at someone's home. The menu is small, but the things we had were all superb. There is no mention of salad or wine by the glas on the menu, so just ask for it.

We're glad you had a good time with us.We look forward to seeing you again,Team Approdo

Osteria del Centenario

Reviewed By matthewbT9247JI

Well, we are just the luckiest. Easter Saturday night with no reservation anywhere, and turned away from 4-5 places before finding this gem. Fine food, great wines, excellent service! Every morsel was a delight for the senses, service was exceptional and the wines were delicious. Thoroughly enjoyed every moment of the visit and would recommend it to anyone. Pricey, but worth every penny compared to the nearest competition.

Ristorante Lago Maggiore

Reviewed By MaanA_12

The eatery does not look very appealing, but the food here is very good and at excellent value. The sea bass is not to be missed, and the oil & garlic spaghetti is excellent here. I don't recommend the dessert here but it wasn't bad. Location: Once you reach the church turn right and the restaurant will be to your right.

Ristorante America

Reviewed By Overlord44

First, the staff was very friendly but we were in a separate room where they normally serve breakfast. The food was okay and nothing special. The mixed salads were freshly made but the risotto was served on a cold plate and probably overcooked. Unfortunately the pizza calzone was "black" on top and filled with too much cheese inside. We went out with mixed feelings although we had a funny evening...
