After researching TA, I wanted to book a reservation here immediately since we were going on a Saturday night. I called the restaurant about three weeks before our travels and ended up communicating with chef Paolo through What's App. Paolo said the place was about 25 minutes from our hotel in Lezzeno. I didn't think that was a big deal until we arrived and the hotel said a taxi would be 90 euros ONE WAY to get there because it was winding roads and straight up hill. (Lesson learned, renting a car in Lake Como is probably a good idea). So I communicated with Paolo that it didn't make sense to pay 180 euros for transportation. He then quoted us a much lower price for both ways, and then sent Marina (his mom? not sure) to come get us. Now THAT is service! We had one of the best meals of our entire trip. Plus, the view!!! He split the Beef Carpaccio into two generous portions, same with the Pea and Mint Gnocchi. Both were fabulous. Then are main dishes were some of the most tender meat we have ever had; the Suckling Pig, and the Beef with Polenta. It was a nice change from all the fish we had been eating. The service was attentive and friendly (Paolo's girlfriend) and we got to visit with the family at the end. What and exquisite experience we had all around. I would highly recommend seeking a way to get to Bella Vista.Dear Mrs AmyThanks so much for a such of nice review. We hope maybe to see u again in the future.Thanks again from all us. All the bestPAOLO

We had the classic menu with wine pairing for dinner, The price was very reasonable and the creativity for each course was outstanding. What made the pricing even more remarkable was an amuse bouche and petit fours (in addition to menu items) that more closely resembled food temples in Paris but at a "menu" price well under half that for a Michelin one star. Our impressions before the trip was that Como area would be overpriced and just basic Italian food, that may be true of Bellagio (which was a crowded mess) but not the rest of the area. Very highly recommend Materia if in the area, worth the trip.

Crotto is the name of the typical restaurant around here where everything is simple but good. This crotto has surprised us because all is left about being typical is the name. Everything else is modern, refined, with ambitious menu. We were lucky to spend the night that was not so busy for them, we felt so welcomed by the waiter who gave us outstanding service all the way through. We tried a bit of everything and i have to say that fish plates are surprisingly good, whereas the meat is just good :). We appreciated the freshness of the ingredients and their respected seasonality (artichokes, pumpkin and cauliflower were provided). Last but not least, the bill was another nice surprise. Two starters, two first courses, three second courses, two desserts, a great bottle of pinot nero, one glass of moscato and one glass of special grappa, all for â¬140. We will go back as soon as possible!
