Very nice restaurant with absolutely lovely staff. The owner transmits pride for his activity and a lot of fundamentals are right. Unfortunately I felt the place promises more than it delivers. The white wine in fact had an astonishing smell but fell short of flavor. We found the starter really good. The risotto was cooked to perfection (something not easy at all) but it lacked taste. Even after I asked for salt and added quite a few of it, it felt like it was missing something important. And considering the meat it has, flavor should never be a problem. The creme brulee was good but not exceptional. The bônet interesting without being memorable.

Had the meal of our dreams, so many places in Como lack authenticity but this place not only had that but value money. We enjoyed a pasta to share, 2 steaks, 2 desserts, 0.5 litres of wine and sparkling water for €77. The steak was divine and the ambience was lovely

An excellent restaurant in a quieter corner of Como. I really loved this restaurant - the food was absolutely delicious and the staff were so friendly and attentive. The wine was excellent too. Fully recommend going here - especially for the starters and pasta dishes.

Great food, great wine and great service. The woman who served us (she had long wavy black hair) was very friendly and we appreciated that she was so welcoming as we are tourists that don’t speak Italian. The other young gentleman server was very nice and good to chat to. Thankyou!

One of the best restaurants in Como! Truly a fantastic meal with delicious pastas and meats at very reasonable prices. They don’t skimp on the quality at all. I loved the steak with roasted potatoes and the papardelle with ragu. The pesto lasagna with the potatoes and green beans was good but a little heavy to have both potatoes and pasta in the same dish. The desserts we tried were excellent, especially the chocolate fondant cake. Would highly recommend this restaurant!

A great find! A little out of the main area but fantastic value and delicious food. Wish that I could have tried more of the menu. Not photographed was a tiramisu, creme brulee and apple pie. All amazing. I don't usually eat apple pie but this was an exception!!
