"Of course at this price niveau the expectations are very high. To sum it up. We had 1 veggie and 1 menu of the day. The watermelon soup was somewhat sour, but the rest of the courses were very good. Unfortunately not hot but lukewarm with each course. The tartar started was quite mustardy which is not really a complaint, but there was no bread of butter offered, which meant something was missing.. ? The black truffel noodles were sooo tasty. My husband 's fish main course only has 3 spoonfuls of risotto, which really was a shame, and to say the least just not enough. The dough with veggie main course unfortunately was very raw in the inside, which meant I couldn 't eat it. Service? The waiter was kind, but twice he forgot the serve what we had ordered. Once our wine upon arrival, and he had to come back to ask our order again. The wine we had to pour ourselves, which really is not to be expected at these prices. over CHF 300 for 2 people. The masks were worn on chins and not properly to cover as would be expected. Because of the location, ambiente, etc. I can say I would give it 4 out of 5 points despite all of the mistakes and mishaps. I hope that if we return it will be better, because i think they can do better. I think now that we should have said then what we weren 't happy with, but for some reason think we wouldn 't have been taken seriously."

"Unfortunately we cannot recommend the restaurant. The service makes many mistakes: Placement not in a reasonable time even though the restaurant was only half full, dishcloths were washed out instead. Cutlery was forgotten and food from other tables was incorrectly assigned CAUTION if you have a normal appetite: Main courses come in 120 150g portions (usually 200 250g), salads also come in very small portions. Beers partly filled below the calibration mark We had rather unfriendly service and a nice beginner who brought my husband a beer twice, even though he had a half full 0.5 liter glass. All in all, we expected more given the nice atmosphere. Price performance not appropriate!"

"Wir waren auf Empfehlung eines Freundes dort. Hoch über dem Lago, hatten wir nicht mit so einem tollen Restaurant gerechnet. Wir sind erst gegen 19:30h angekommen. Es war leider schon zu frisch, um auf der schönen Terrasse sitzen zu können. Also gingen wir rein. Wir wurden herzlich begrüsst und platziert. Eine schöne und gemütliche Einrichtung, Das Restaurant war zu 2/3 voll. Es hat eine offen einsehbare Pizzastation. Wir nahmen einen Apero und stöberten in der Karte. Die Speisekarte ist ausreichend, sodass jeder etwas findet, dies beeinhaltet auch 2 Seiten Pizzen. Sogar Châteaubriand wird angeboten. Die Weinkarte hat natürlich die Weine aus dem Tessin und Piemont. Aber auch andere Weine, kann man da finden. Ich vermute, das Restaurant hat sich auf die deutschen und schweizer Gäste eingestellt, die in Ronco und Umgebung ihre Ferienhäuser haben. ich bestellte das Vitello tonnato. Als der Teller kam, war ich sehr freudig überrascht. endlich mal ein Koch, der auch Wert auf die Präsentation legt. Statt das Kalbfleisch lieblos einfach flach auf den Teller zu legen, war es schön gefaltet. Salat mit ein paar kleinen Zwiebelringen, den Kapernäpfeln und Karottenblumen, wurden in angenehmen Mengen sehr schön plaziert. Natürlich war die Thunfischsauce fantastisch. Meine Partnerin hatte die Kraftbrühe, die auch sehr lecker war. Zum HG gab es für mich Pizza Ticinese und mein Gegenüber hatte das Saltimbocca mit Steinpilzrisotto. Sie schwärmte sehr davon. Die Pizza kam, auch geschmacklich, wie ich es erwartet hatte. Zum Abschluss noch zwei Espresso mit kleinem hausgemachten Gebäck. Eine kleine Verbesserung hätte ich doch noch.Ich musste mich mit einem Rheinfelder Feldschlösschen vom Fass zur Pizza zufrieden geben. Gewünscht hätte ich mir ein Bier aus dem Tessin. Aber das mindert den Eindruck nicht wirklich. Ich habe dann später noch erfahren, dass das Wirtepaar, das Restaurant seit gut 3 Jahren betreibt und es wohl nicht einfach hatte, da der Vorbesitzer keinen guten Ruf hinterlassen hatte. Aber ich muss sagen, Sie machen das toll. Bitte lasst nicht nach, es hat genug 0815 in der Region. Vielen Dank für den schönen Abend, wir kommen mit Freunden wieder."

"Well ... if you looking for a perfect lunch or dinner in a quite tipical restaurant, away from the crowded piazza in ascona, but still not too far away to be reached by car ... this is the perfect location to go to! The food is fantastic, although the prices are quite high. The decoration and the flowers in summer can hardly be compared wirh anything else you've seen so far, and the owner of the place (mrs codiferro) is a great host!Try the giant cordon bleu for an extra charge of a few Seiss francs you will be stunned by its size!!!Well ... a fantastic, very original place to eat, to which you will always want to come back ... enjoy!"

"The gastronomic Eldorado in the Centovalli! I was allowed to spend two nights including culinary excellence in the Hotel Ristaurante Stazione with the hosts Eloa and Yanick. I have decided against photos because my illustrations and descriptions do not do justice to reality. I was greeted with one of the warmest greetings in Eloa. After a small hotel tour, I caught my breath when entering my room for the first time. Being first on the Titanic's railing is nothing compared to the prospect! And the best thing is, you lie in bed, have the balcony and this view in front of you! But I was looking forward to the evening. I opted (twice) for the 4 course carte blanche one of the best decisions of my life. On the first evening I was able to enjoy everything vegetarian (on request). The individual courses were so balanced, each component simply sat next to the high quality basic products, in the production and presentation! Ditto for the second night I opted for more meat. Yanick has fully exploited the culinary top level with regional products! In addition to the unbelievable food, there is of course also the service to be honored here. Not once did I have to ask for anything. Eloa fulfilled my every wish before I could express it. She passes on her knowledge with great passion and raises the gastronomic experience to a unique top level. When Eloa takes care of the other guests with great enthusiasm, Fabio is immediately there with his cheerful and courteous nature. In addition to the evening experiences, the morning should also be mentioned here. I was greeted by Fata with probably the warmest and most loving smile and shown to my breakfast table. The perfectly put together first meal of the day left nothing to be desired. Rounded off with the warm service, there's no better way to start the day! Basically, it can be said that the living room atmosphere with the high performance of the kitchen, service and housekeeping is unparalleled. I have found my new sanatorium for soul and body in the Ristorante della Stazione and can more than recommend a stay to everyone! Thank you for this experience! Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5"
