"We were staying at the hotel because it was near the airport we booked with points. We decided to eat at the restaurant basically to give them some business. So when we went down to dinner we thought we'd be the only ones in the dining room. Were we surprised. The restaurant was packed, maybe thirty tables, and for good reason. The food was fantastic, the service impeccable. We shared an antipasto of octopus and burrata, and two pastas, tagliatelle with ragu and truffles, and peccari with tomoato sauce, and they were fantastic. Two glasses of wine, dessert and coffee, and for &0 Euro total. Even if you aren't staying at the hotel, go to the restaurant!"

"This place was an absolute save for our group, as we were temporarily in the Malpensa airport area and wanted to look for a good Italian place to eat dinner at. You must show up early or you will end up waiting as this place gets busy very quickly with many other customers in the evening. We ordered the pasta con vongole, pasta carbonara, pizze (diavolo, 4 formaggi, crudo), pasta bolognese, and tiramisu. The bolognese was easily one of the best I’ve had compared to many Italian restaurants back home. The waiters were quite busy but did their best to accomodate for us and one of our dishes took significantly long to get served. Overall I enjoyed eating here and this place lives up to its reputation. Grazie mille! un viaggiatore dalla NZ"

"Ristorante Wood, situato all’interno di una villa liberty arredata con stile minimal sulle sfumature del bianco e del nero, porta a Gallarate (VA) la cucina mediterranea. Una coppia affiatata, Lara in cucina e Andrea in sala, hanno instaurato un rapporto intenso col territorio seppur l’identità sia chiara fin dall’inizio: si fanno sentire le radici siciliane (isole Eolie per la precisione) e l’amore per la penisola iberica di Lara. Lei è molto determinata, ha una forte personalità che si riflette nei piatti. Ecco, infatti, che si viene accolti da un amuse bouche di finto pomodoro ripieno di pane cunzato e una fogliolina di origano cubano. Acido e balsamico! Il mare lo si assapora all’interno dello spaghetto cozze e aneto. Qui l’entusiasmo si stabilizza e prosegue dritto verso il secondo per raggiungere picchi di memorabile bontà. La croba arrosto: un pesce dalla polpa soda ed umida, dal sapore dolce e delicato avvolto in una salsa chardonnay all’aneto il cui unico difetto è volerne sempre di più. Le melanzane in tempura conferiscono croccantezza e grassezza al piatto. Da urlo! Immancabile il passaggio sui formaggi “dal mondo” (non visibili nel reel): Parmigiano 36 mesi, podolico, robiola d’alpeggio 30 mesi 3 latti da Tortona, raclette con senape per raggiungere livelli di amarezza altissimi e Cabrales spagnolo. Il dolce è un vero peccato di gola: una tartelletta, composta di fichi d’india, namelaka al cioccolato bianco, arancia e cannella. La sala è perfettamente governata da Andrea. Con eleganza e garbo trasporta e racconta questo viaggio attraverso i sapori di terre lontane per usi e tradizioni dalla sua Mantova. Il modo in cui riesce ad entrare in simbiosi con la clientela è un esempio di garbo e raffinatezza, che mi sento di definire come i tratti distintivi di questo ristorante di cui prendere nota."

"I came to visit this restaurant reading the excellent reviews... and I wonder where these people dined to write a positive review... the place is not the best, very little choice and above all very expensive... the wine brought hot and not even a proper glass at the same price in another restaurant you ate more...it's better.... cold dishes without emotions prepared in a few minutes and ridiculous doses...my partner felt ill after taking the mackerel on the menu...I don't recommend it and I won't go back again Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 2"

"This restaurant is located in a pedestrian area. When you arrive by car you need to find a parking outside this area! When entering the restaurant we almost got a shock. You will look at the Bar and all is looking like in a Pub. Then we have informed the man behind the Bar that we have made a reservation for lunch. At once we got guided to the room behind the Bar located at the rear. There is a separate simple furnished room with some few tables. The ambiance is rustic. Upon arrival a very few guests were sitting there and their barking dog has greeted us. Soon we received the menu and wine list. We ordered Ravioli with Asparagus and a Filetto di Manzo (20,00 € , Filet Steak. In addition I have ordered roasted potatoes (al forno, 4,00 € . We also ordered a bottle of red wine, Barbaresco, Vallegrande, 38,00 €. From the house we received an amuse bouche of good taste. The served bread was home made, fresh and of perfect taste. The potatoes had a bad taste and it was not a good value for money. The steak was average. The Ravioli were fine. The taste of wine was perfect. The toilets were very simple and old fashioned. You need to close the door with a hook. The flushing was on the bottom on the tiles. One water pipe was broken and there was a flooding. My subjective rating: Service: 3 points Value for money: 3-4 points Toilets: 2 points Preparation of meals: 3-4 points Presentation of meals: 3-4 points Ambiance: 3 points Location: 3 points"
