"we always like to celebrate occasions in this restaurant where location, good food and courteous service create a perfect mix. we stayed a few weeks ago Friday night and we had the pleasure to dine outdoors in a lakeside table. The dishes are skillfully prepared and presented with goto. excellent gnocchetti with cod and delicate fried shrimp. to finish a really delicious dessert. the view and the very relaxed ball make it perfect for a romantic dinner. absolutely to try, and then come back again"

"Worst meal of our past six weeks in three countries of Europe. This is my first food review I’ve bothered to post in past 10 years. Trying to at least warn others. I asked waiter Aldo for seafood, and which one he recommended. I trusted him and the restaurant to be credible. The fried fish should not have been on the menu, it was so bad I only finished about half the serving because I was starving. Gross food."

"Locale trovato casualmente nei nostri spostamenti da Invorio verso le sponde del lago Maggiore. Trovato su Google, e incuriosita dalle recensioni positive, decido di contattarli per sapere se fossero attrezzati per il senza glutine. Alla risposta affermativa, senza esitare, decidiamo di prenotare per la sera. Il locale all'interno si presenta rustico e accogliente, noi ci siamo accomodati fuori sotto una bellissima tettoia aperta affacciata sul piccolo giardino molto ben curato. Abbiamo preso l'antipasto del Vergante per due, decisamente da provare, molto buono. Poi abbiamo continuato con due secondi, uno di carne, tagliata di scottona con mele caramellate, e uno di pesce di lago (mio marito era curioso di provarlo). Entrambi i piatti molto, molto buoni. Decidiamo di concludere la cena con dei dolci, io ho scelto il Bonet, dolce tipico Piemontese e mio marito la panna cotta al caramello. Entrambi squisiti e goduriosi. Normalmente non prendo il caffè la sera, ma non potevo perdermi l'occasione di farmelo servire al tavolo direttamente da una Moka gigante. Questa ultima chicca ti fa sentire veramente a casa. Sicuramente se saremo in zona, torneremo per assaggiare e assaporare altri piatti, considerati i profumi invitanti provenienti dai tavoli vicini come quello del ragù o la visione di dolci come il tiramisù che sarà stato superlativo, visto il numero di commensali che lo ordinavano. Consigliatissimo anche per celiaci."

"We only had dinner, we weren't guests at the hotel. Our meals were out of this world delicious. The veal in the Vitello Tonnato was tender, the flan was perfectly fluffy and tasty. It's hard to say which was better, the roasted pork belly or roasted peasant breast--both amazing and en point prepared. Get the Panna cotta for dessert--soooo good. Wine selection large, local, and best quality. 100% recommended."

"Food was amazing. Best ravioli I’ve ever had. The duck left me just speechless. But I didn’t like the cheese selection (really bad). Also, we ordered coke zero but one of the waitresses said they had only normal coke. As I only drink coke zero, water was fine for me. A few minutes later, another waitress, very kind and helpful, brought my sister a coke zero. She said they were actually out of normal coke but they had coke zero, so I ordered one for myself. Then I saw that first waitress giving out to that other kind waitress about the coke. And for many other times I saw her mistreating the poor and kind waitress, just because of COCA COLA! When we were ready to pay, we asked a waiter if it was possible to pay one part cash and another part by card, he said it was ok. When I arrived at the bar, the first waitress was at the till and she made us pay the whole bill with cash. She clearly doesn’t know anything about her workplace or just just like giving customers a hard time. Food is amazing but because of her I’d rather go to other restaurants nearby."
