Lovely spot by the harbor, the grilled fish was really good. Risotto al parmigiano too. Prices are steep but the view makes up for it.

Cozy spot in Ascona, pasta bolognese was solid and fairly priced. A glass of their house red paired nicely with it. Nothing fancy, but dependable.

The steak came out exactly as I asked, and the risotto was rich without being too heavy. Server checked on us just the right amount, not hovering. Place was busy but we never felt rushed. Only thing is the tables are a bit close together, but that&#39;s pretty standard for this area. Solid dinner spot.

Nice wine list, and the staff actually knew how to pair it with our dishes. Food was solid, nothing mind-blowing, but the service made it easy to linger. Good spot if you want a relaxed dinner without fuss. 🍷

Climbed up here on a lunch break and grabbed a seat by the window. Braised beef with polenta was solid&mdash;meat was tender, sauce had good depth. Didn&#39;t try the wine list, just got a coffee after. Place fills up fast around noon, so come early if you want a table. Service was quick enough for a workday stop.

Came for the ribs, left happy. Meat was properly tender, and the Gorgonzola risotto hit the spot. Owner Miky&rsquo;s a solid host. Bit of a walk to find it, but no regrets.

Decent spot right across from Swissminiatur. Pizza was pretty good, and the burger selection looked fine too. Prices felt a bit more reasonable than central Lugano. We sat outside and the lake view made it easy to stay a while. Service was okay, nothing special, but I&rsquo;d come back if I&rsquo;m in the area.

Staff here are super friendly and quick. Pizza was solid, nothing fancy but hit the spot for a lunch break. Menu&#39;s got enough options to keep it interesting.

The beef tartar here is the real deal. Clean, fresh, well-seasoned, no fuss. Alessandro knows what he&#39;s doing behind the counter. I&#39;d come back just for that plate. Maybe try the rest of the menu next time, but honestly, the tartar alone is enough reason.

The View exceeded all expectations providing a fabulous dining experience in celebration of my husband&rsquo;s birthday! It was superb!

The pumpkin tortellini were really good, and that view is something else. Cozy little place, plus the house ros&eacute; hit the spot.

The grilled vegetable plate was fresh and well-seasoned, not oily at all. Good to see a place with proper vegetarian options that aren&#39;t just pasta.

The tiramisu here is the best I&rsquo;ve had in years&mdash;properly soaked, creamy, not overly sweet. That alone would bring me back. Menu has decent variety too, though I only tried the pasta and dessert. Service was efficient, place was clean. Slightly off the main tourist path, but worth the short walk.

Been coming here for a while now, always sit upstairs. Food&#39;s consistent, which is honestly why I keep going back. Portions are solid, you won&#39;t leave hungry. Staff remember you after a few visits, that counts for something. Not the cheapest spot but you get what you pay for.

Lovely spot right on the lake. The Flammkuchen was thin and crispy, exactly what I needed. Staff let me try a few local beers before picking one.

Stopped by for a quick lunch on the terrace. Food came out fast, which I appreciated. Espresso martini was solid, pistachio dessert hit the spot. No complaints, decent spot if you&#39;re in the area and want something easy.

The waiter took the time to translate the whole menu for us since there was no English version. That was a nice touch. Food and wine were good, and the setting is lovely. Just wish the place wasn&#39;t quite so busy when we went.

Solid portion of meat, fries and pita for a fair price. Staff got me in and out quick. Good spot for a fast lunch in Locarno.

Solid vegan options for a work lunch. Staff knew the menu well and didn&#39;t rush me. Fair price for the quality. Good spot if you&#39;re in the area.

We stopped by on a Tuesday night, place was busy but not crazy. Hosts actually remembered us from last time, that was nice. Had the lamb tagine, plenty of meat, sauce had real depth. Portion size is honest, left full but not stuffed. Setting is cozy, old building with some character. Only thing, service slows down a bit when it gets packed. Still, solid spot for a casual dinner.

The owner actually came by to check if everything was alright. Got the lamb tagine and it was properly tender. Place feels like a real family operation, not some tourist trap.

The location of this restaurant is simply beautiful, especially during sunset. The menu offers a variety of delicious options, and the staff is always there to ensure a pleasant dining experience.

The food is absolutely amazing. Michelin does this place a disservice rating it at one star. A very solid 2 star in my opinion.  Add the lakeside view and it is hard to beat.  Superb wine pairing using local and South Italian wines.

The Vallemaggia menu was solid&mdash;food came out well-prepared and tasty. Portions felt fair for what you pay. Staff checked in just enough without hovering.

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.

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

Lovely terrace right by the lake, that view alone is worth stopping for. Sushi tasted fresh, and the staff let us sit without rushing us. Maybe not the cheapest place, but for a quiet lunch it felt right. I&rsquo;d come back if I&rsquo;m in the area again.

Very nice restaurant with delicious and high quality food. The wine and service was also almost perfect. It is a good recommendation for Italian food.

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.
