Been coming here for years. Lobster pasta is still as good as the first time I tried it. Portions are generous, parking&#39;s easy. That&#39;s why I keep going back.

The chestnut dessert was creamy and not too sweet&mdash;really nicely balanced. Portion felt generous for what they charge.

The place has that upscale feel without being stuffy. I keep coming back for the quality of the ingredients&mdash;never been disappointed. Service was on point too.

Finally got to try this place after staring at it from our hotel balcony all week. The menu&#39;s got some creative stuff going on, ingredients tasted fresh. Service was quick and the staff seemed genuinely nice. Even our dog got a warm welcome, which was a plus. Pretty solid dinner overall.

The pistachio gelato was spot on&mdash;creamy, dense, real nut flavor. But the cone turned soft within minutes. Should&#39;ve just gotten a cup. Next time I&#39;ll know better.

Booked ahead and so glad we did - it&#39;s a cozy spot! The pasta was incredible, really fresh. Perfect for catching up with friends over a long dinner. A bit on the pricier side, but you can taste why.

The mimosa cake for Women&#39;s Day was lovely, so fresh. We had coffee and the macarons were incredibly light. The space is decorated with such good taste, really pleasant for a quiet afternoon.

The pistachio gelato was the star for me - so creamy and packed with real nut flavor. The yogurt one was a nice, tangy contrast. Just the right treat on a warm afternoon.

They have vegan sorbets and lactose-free choices, which is nice. I got the raspberry sorbet and it was really refreshing. The place itself is simple, just a few small tables inside.

Service was quick and efficient. Two waiters managed the whole terrace, handled cocktails, coffee, and food without a hitch. Impressive for a busy afternoon. I didn&#39;t have to flag anyone down for the bill either. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and don&#39;t want to waste time.

The polenta concia was the standout &mdash; rich, comforting, exactly what I needed on a cold evening. Lovely space, though service was a bit slow when it got busy.

The puntine ribs here are the real deal. Tender, smoky, fall-off-the-bone. I&rsquo;ve had a lot of ribs around Lugano, these are easily the best. Antipasto was solid too, and the wine list has some good local picks. Price felt fair for what you get. Just go for the ribs.

The mezze spread was solid, and the fattoush really popped. A glass of their Lebanese white would pair nicely.

Grabbed a quick lunch to go here. The sandwich was fresh, ate it on a bench by the lake. Simple and just what I needed.

The seafood spaghetti was so good, fresh clams and a light sauce. Perfect for sharing with friends over a long chat. The tomato one was nice too, but the seafood stole the show. A bit pricey, but worth it for the vibe.

Lovely spot for a catch-up with friends! The staff were super attentive and the food was delicious. We shared the risotto and tiramisu, perfect for a relaxed evening. A bit on the pricier side, but the vibe was just right.

The gelato here tastes really fresh, you can tell they use natural ingredients. The cherry flavor was my favorite, and the chocolate was good too. A bit on the pricier side, but you get what you pay for.

Stopped in for a coffee and a pastry. The ladies working were really sweet. Got a croissant&mdash;still warm and flaky. Place was buzzing, definitely a local favorite spot.

Daily changing flavors keep it interesting. You can taste the quality in the ingredients.

The gelato here is pretty good. They have a decent selection of flavors, and I appreciate the lactose-free options. The owner was friendly. It&#39;s a nice spot for a treat, though it can get a bit crowded in the evenings.

A nice little spot in the courtyard by the market. The tables are spaced out well, so it doesn&#39;t feel crowded even when it&#39;s busy. I liked the quiet corner I got. Prices seemed pretty standard for around here.

Friendly staff, and parking out back is a plus.

The granita was the standout. Perfectly coarse ice, soaked in fresh lemon and a hint of mint. Not too sweet, just sharp and refreshing. The pizza was good, thin crust, but honestly, I kept thinking about finishing that granita.

Friendly staff and the pizza tasted good, but honestly the portion was a bit small for the price. Fine if you just want a quick bite.
