Worst meal we have ever had during our three vacations to Italy or anywhere. Service was disgraceful. The food was awful- my husband ordered lamb which he received overcooked and swimming in an oily tasteless mess. I ordered steak which had the odor of spoiled meat. We brought this to the attention of another waitress - as our waitress was nowhere to be found after placing our order- who told us she would let the chef know. She never returned. We then flagged her down again and requested to speak to the manager. She informed us he was too busy in the kitchen to speak with us. They did not bring our cocktails and we had to ask for them again after 20 minutes. The food was poor and the service greatly disappoints- especially as they did not acknowledge our dissatisfaction with the meal. Additionally, there were many mosquitoes inside the restaurant (worse outside). By the way- it was not busy- maybe 7-10 tables tops. Will never return.

We would like to thank all our guests that visit and reviewed us in our first 8 years of activity, Deborah & Joost.Our Winebar-Enoteca is specialized in platters prepared at the moment with local sliced cuts and cheeses.we don't not serve pasta, or maincourses because our philosophy is doing just a few things...but done in the proper way. Genuine ospitality and our motto "come like a guest go like a friend"
Stopped in for a glass of wine before heading to La Darsena for dinner. We sat outside on the amazing roof top bar under the grapes and lattice. Service and wine flight were amazing. After dinner and walking by again he decided to stop in for a glass of wine to end the evening and sat inside to enjoy the cave like feel. What a wonderful experience. While we did not have any food we did see others eating and it looked very good. A must stop!

This was one of the most special moments of a summer-long trip across Europe. The chef's wife picked us up and drove us up the dizzying mountain road. Incredible views! Upon arrival, the chef came out and welcomed us. He was well-aware of my gluten intolerance as he had answered the phone when I called to make our reservation. We had the tasting menu and it was divine. The risotto was the best we've ever had, regardless of restaurant price. The chef even gave out his recipe--not that one could ever replicate it. We had more food than we could manage, wine with dinner, and my husband had what seemed to be endless glasses of limoncello--all for 60 euro. When we were ready to go, the chef drove us back to Varenna. Fantastic experience! We cannot wait to return.

Wine Bar with local food
Having visited several times before I was sorely disappointed with the current state of aperitivo et al during my last visit.
The bar/restaurant I knew and loved from three years ago has been replaced with a continuous advertisement for shipping of wine.
The focus of the bar has always been wine however the malt whisky selection was previously second to none in the local area and cocktails a aplenty.
Upon arriving at the bar this time around we were told there was a ten minute wait. No problem. However they are using up one table for a giant advert for their wine export service. Okay. Upon enquiring for a cocktail list we were informed by a surly server that this is a wine bar. Assuming that we had just had a bad experience we returned the following day. Again the service was unfriendly, we had a menu placed down with the wine by the glass range on show and encouraged to order from this. We had a quick drink and left. Three years ago we would happily spend the whole night there.
The charm and quaintness this place had appears to have sadly disappeared.

Seasonal opening from April till the end of October. Local and Mediterranean Kitchen; Lake and Sea Fish Specials. Please note: Terrazza Barchetta Restaurant is located on the upper floor of the building, not to be confused with Ristoro Forma e Gusto - Pizza & Restaurant at the ground floor: same property but different Kitchen, Menu, Staff and more informal, suitable for Children.
We had dinner on the second floor of this nicely appointed restaurant. This restaurant's signature fish from the lake was a big disappointment - no taste of fish, just the taste of fried egg. Pasta was OK, but I certainly can't recommend this restaurant.Thank you for you comment expressing your "personal" opinion. Local people say that our "Risotto with Perch" is one of the best in Bellagio. Kind regards

We had a delicious meal at Quatro Pass! The only disappointment was the fact that the special pasta of the day didn't taste homemade (though a friend's pasta dish was definitely homemade). The sauce, nonetheless, was divine! We also enjoyed the wine list, taking with us a reasonably priced bottle of Amarone.

Can't complement this place enough. All the courses I had were excellent. It's small so Reservations are recommended but worth any trouble eating here. I can see why they get such good ratings on Tripadvisor. Great music in the background for what amounts to a trully memorable dining experience. One of the best I have had. Six stars.

The place is off the water but really where the locals go for a great pizza and a bottle of wine. The place will win no awards for the decoration, but it will for the local charm and the food. A couple of two can obtain an appetizer, wine, and pizza all for $25. Really great for the people who want to get away from the tourist expensive places everywhere on Como Lake.
Simple local pizzeria with lots of choice. Husband said best pizza ever! Thin crust! Very friendly. No gluten free unfortunately but fish and meat choices also! Well worth a visit and very reasonably priced.

Wonderful location in central square of Menaggio,with lovely lake views and nearby small Fountain.
A little pricier than other local restaurants- but the cooking is a notch better.
The risotto was creamy and very good.
The roast fillet of fish with peppers on a bed of courgettes was also excellent.
Apple/ice cream and sea salt dessert was unusual and good.
Good range of reasonably priced wines by the glass.
