Al Portichetto Cirano In Gandino

11/08/2025: We visited this restaurant for a romantic dinner, and despite booking at the last minute, the entire staff was completely available. We found the atmosphere to be very welcoming. We felt welcomed with great attention, and we immediately realized how much effort and passion goes into each dish. We tried the generous platter, with both cheeses and cured meats (it was hearty!), the very fresh and well-seasoned octopus salad, the delicious seafood spaghetti, the mixed fried fish (a delight!), and the very tasty octopus with chickpea cream. The contrast of the cream with the flavor of the octopus captivated our palates. The pizza, delicious, cooked in a wood-fired oven, has become the symbol of the Vertova Golden Lion! Every month, a new pizza shows so much passion for their craft. As for the desserts, we were absolutely delighted; there was a very kind young man who dedicated himself to the presentation of the dishes with particular attention to the smallest details. I've attached a few photos to demonstrate our satisfaction after the bill! Really competitive and honest prices. We've saved it among our favorite places and we're happy to return often 🥰❤️
