The plating was so thoughtful, really stylish. Portions are generous and everything tasted fresh. Service was quick but not rushed. Prices felt fair for what you get.

The little restaurant tucked away at the back is the real find. Had the lake fish, so fresh and simple. The view from the table was just this perfect slice of quiet water and trees. Staff were lovely, too.

The Harp lager was so crisp and refreshing. I ended up trying a few of their craft ciders too, which was a fun little tasting session. Really solid spot for a proper pint.

Booking was not honoured but as the restaurant not crowded they could join4 tables in order to accomodate our oarty of 8. Food was good and service average.

The wood-fired pizza here is fantastic. You can really taste the quality in the fresh ingredients, especially the mozzarella. Had it with their special craft beer, which was a great match. Just a really nice, simple lunch.

Loved the terrace seating under the big old trees. It was so peaceful and shaded, a really nice escape from the afternoon sun. The whole vibe was just very cozy and relaxing.

Stopped by for lunch, got the beef fillet with porcini mushrooms. Cooked rare just like I asked. The risotto stayed hot on that stoneware plate the whole time, which I didn&#39;t expect. Nice view of the lake too, though it was a bit crowded. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area.

Just had the pizzoccheri here. It&#39;s that classic, hearty Valtellina style. The buckwheat pasta with cabbage and cheese was so comforting on a chilly evening. The chestnut tagliatelle was a nice seasonal find too.

Grabbed a takeaway pizza on a whim. They were super quick and friendly. The price was decent, around 8-10&euro;. The pizza itself was just okay, nothing mind-blowing, but it hit the spot for a casual bite.

Stumbled upon this spot wandering around. Staff were super friendly, made us feel right at home. The food was spot on, you could tell they used good stuff. Kids devoured the desserts, which is saying something!

Easy to find with parking out front. Their wine list had a nice local red that paired well with the pasta.

The rotating craft beer list is what keeps me coming back. Always something new on tap, and the staff actually knows their stuff. Tried a hazy IPA last night that was spot on.

A solid local spot, so booking ahead is wise. The pasta was pretty good, nicely al dente. The sauce was decent, though a touch salty for my taste. Service was fine.

A traditional osteria; the menu was not what we anticipated from what was listed on their website; very difficult to find parking nearby; first courses were fine; kidneys in brandy sauce were over-cooked; lamb chops were burnt; the cabbage stew was very good; house wine was also very good. service was pleasant and efficient; a bit noisy in the main eating area.

Tasting menu took over 3 hours. Dishes were creative and fresh, quality ingredients. Good for a special night, but way too long for a quick bite.

The homemade gnocchi was so fresh, it practically melted. But sitting on that little terrace, with the garden just below&hellip; that was the real treat. Felt miles away from everything.

Stumbled in for a quick lunch. Risotto alla Milanese was spot on, creamy and rich. Got my order in under 10 minutes, perfect for a fast bite. The retro vibe is a nice touch. Solid spot.

The spaghetti aglio e olio was spot on, just the right amount of garlic and chili. The pizza diavola had a nice kick to it. Service was quick, no fuss. Good for a simple weeknight meal.

Loved the tiramisu here! The mascarpone was so light, and the coffee-soaked ladyfingers had just the right amount of bitterness. A perfect way to end the meal.

Grilled fish was a standout, simple and tender. Prices felt fair. A decent find near the airport hotels.

Docked the boat right here, super convenient. Had a quick lunch on the patio overlooking the water. The fish tacos were fresh, nice crispy batter. A solid spot to refuel.

The pistachio gelato. You can taste the real nuts, not just sugar. It&#39;s dense, creamy, and the flavor is so clear. Comes from a local farm, they said. That explains it. A bit pricier than the shop down the street, but you get what you pay for.

A charming restaurant with a spacious terrace and delicious food. Perfect for family outings and celebrations!

The host was so friendly and welcoming. Food came out hot and quickly, which I really appreciate. Makes for a relaxed, comfortable meal.
