Al Borducan In Varese

We had an aperitif on their small balcony, which offers a wonderful view. The cocktails are special, well made (and please don't overdo it, they're also pretty strong 😂). The only thing that perplexes me is the practically non-existent aperitif, given that the prices are already not low, bringing chips and peanuts to a place like this is a paradox.

Al Borducan is an obligatory stop for me when I come to Sacro Monte. The first time I went to Borducan there was still Mr. Bregonzio who served the Elixir from a teapot equipped with a music box with the notes of Love Story... how could you not fall in love.

Wonderful, intimate and ancient. An enchanting place, the staff is young and kind and it feels really good.

Tutto perfetto. Cibo raffinato, atmosfera accogliente e romantica. Abbiamo anche dormito una notte. Colazione abbondante. Consogliatissimo

I went to the restaurant for an anniversary, excellent food and service, incredibly romantic location and atmosphere, you won't find better places for a romantic dinner..

We had lunch as guests of a friend in this wonderful restaurant (and hotel but we did not stay). After the delicious appetizer based on cooked egg barzotto alla carbonara, with pecorino cream and crispy bacon, we moved on to the second course, the Prussian Manzetta in Sichuan pepper sauce shaded with Borducan. Since the ritual was so good, we returned to the first courses, their risotto waiting to be discovered. Friendly staff ready to meet customer needs. The Christmas decorations still present made the lunch even more evocative. Excellent location with a view of Varese and the province. You have to try it once.

Simply unique in everything that Borducan is.

I spent New Year's Eve 2024 in this wonderful restaurant with my better half. Well what can I say: exceptional service, with young and very helpful staff for any need, excellent dishes with quality raw materials, the aperitif they offer, the Elikir, very good and pleasant to start the evening. At midnight toast with a breathtaking view over the entire Varese area and Milan 🎇🎆 highly recommended for a dinner for a couple but also with close friends, At the end of the evening there is the possibility of being able to take the roses they put on the table 🌹🌹 I will return, perhaps in the summer season.

The Borducan restaurant certainly stands out for its enchanting location, with a breathtaking view that makes the environment truly evocative and pleasant. Unfortunately, however, the quality of the food does not reflect the expectations that such a promising location could arouse. The dishes, in fact, are mediocre and sometimes pretentious, trying to play too much on combinations and presentations without managing to offer a truly satisfying taste. Furthermore, the portions are definitely too small, leaving a sense of dissatisfaction. Added to this is a sloppy service, with young and still inexperienced waiters who, unfortunately, fail to provide the professionalism one would expect in a restaurant of this type. Finally, the prices are too high compared to what is actually offered on the plate, making the culinary experience even less justifiable. A real shame, because the restaurant has all the potential to become a point of reference if only it improved in the quality of food, service and value for money. Vegetarian-vegan offer not up to date.

Location fantastica, addobbi natalizi molto belli,cibo di qualità!! Vino ottimo!!! Grazie per tutto!!! Ci tornerò, però in dolce compagnia!!
