"We arrived at the restaurant after an afternoon of hiking to Monte Croce. At first we were unsure if they would even let us inside due to our sport clothes, because the pictures of the menu looked very fancy. However, this was not an issue and we found that the atmosphere of the restaurant was indeed quite laid back. We were offered delicious arancini and home made grissini on the house. We ordered a tuna tataki in ponzu sauce and a truffle oil beef carpaccio as a starter. The cook was so kind to accomodate separating our carpaccio in two portions because i cannot tolerate truffle oil. As a main dish we had pasta with shrimps and tomatoes and raviolis with goat cheese. Our dessert sent both of us jumping from our chairs: a catalan cream with cinnamon crumble and ice cream. The food was definitely prepared with love and of the highest quality, exactly what the doctor ordered after a long hike. Service was very friendly and even the Chef came outside at some point to make sure everything was okay. This was hands down the best food experience of our trip, and although it was not the cheapest, the food-quality ratio here has absolutely nothing to do with the overpriced restaurants around Como Lake. It is quite “off-the-beaten-path” for most tourist but it is definitely worth the trip and the money!!!"

"In una affollatissima domenica in cui (purtroppo) non eravamo riusciti a prenotare e in cui alle 14 la maggior parte dei locali aveva la cucina chiusa, siamo stati colpiti dalla gentilezza del personale di questo locale tra i vicoli di Varenna, che ha mostrato da subito classe, eleganza e gentilezza, facendoci accomodare e soddisfando ogni nostra esigenza.Il menu ci ha stupito dall’ antipasto al dolce. Ogni portata è presentata e cucinata magistralmente.Davvero consigliato."

"small local in the cobblestones, the corkscrew offers a small but original menu. the flavors of traditional cuisine are creatively declined and associated with unusual ingredients. great care in the presentation of the dishes and in the service, despite the local is really small. we were lucky to find a place on a Saturday at lunch with the crowded city. the price not quite modest is competitive with other locals and in line with the quality and service offered. I recommend to taste the trout fillets in corn crust, pumpkin cream and mushrooms .we are very satisfied with the experience. only note to take into account: there are no outside menu and for children there are no alternatives to tomato paste."

"Abbiamo avuto modo di provare questo ristorante pizzeria per caso, dopo il rientro da una bellissima passeggiata sul lago di Varenna:Siamo stati subito accolti dal Personale di sala in modo cordiale e capace. La sensibilità dimostrata nei confronti di un disabile nell’aiutarlo ad accomodarsi al tavolo è stata eccezionale (purtroppo ormai di umanità se ne trova poca).Lo stesso trattamento (ripeto eccezionale) è stato riservato anche al nostro cagnolino con un benvenuto dato da una ciotola di acqua fresca. Il Capo Sala Orlando accoglie i clienti con grande cordialità, attento ad ogni minimo particolare per permettere di passare una bella serata in maniera straordinaria.. ci siamo sentiti coccolati su ogni cosa.Ambiente curato e pulito.Le pizze provate sono ottime!!!Complimenti al pizzaiolo!!! La pizza con pancetta grana e croste di grana era una vera delizia per il palato.Da segnalare positivamente la rapiditànel servizio.Quando tornerò non mancherà di certo una nuova visita al vostro ristorante!! Grazie per la bella serata!!!Complimenti ragazzi siete fantastici!!"

"I don't know if it was bad day for them when we visited but as my title said, the worst food we can remember. We visited this place for lunch as a couple. Firstly, we would normally not dine in a place like this as it looked like a tourist trap. It was facing the lake, high foot traffic area and super crowded. But because it achieved such high reviews on here, we thought we would give it a go. We ordered battered courgette flowers, caprese salad and pizza. The battered courgette flower turned up hot on the batter, but the courgette flower was cold, like it was not defrosted. The tomatoes in the caprese salad was floury, and the pizza was tasteless and doughy. We sent the courgette flowers back for them to heat up, and it returned soggy like they microwaved. So I had to chase the waiter and waitress to get them to see it was cold and even worse than first time. The waitress did recognise the issue and didn't charge us for the courgette. The table was not very clean and service was average. It was clear the restaurant was understaffed. Overall not a dining experience we want to remember."
