Antica Locanda del Contrabbandiere In Pozzolengo

20/05/2026: Classic Italian trattoria, Excellent food and wine. I shall return!

15/05/2026: Trattoria Belotti is a truly delightful little place. I had a truly wonderful time (and ate there). The service was friendly and welcoming, even though I arrived at 1:50 PM (when kitchens tend to close). I was in Brescia, and since I was a little late before returning to Reggio, I thought I'd stop somewhere to finally try the "casoncelli," which I'd been wanting to try for a long time but never had the chance. Even standing in front of the restaurant, you can sense how much attention has been paid to everything. The interior is meticulously designed down to the smallest detail. I had lunch next to the fireplace (and that's all I've said). The very kind lady who served me each dish asked if everything was okay and to my liking. Truly kind. Thank you. 🫶 I had a good appetizer of cured meats and a first course, the "casoncelli." I was offered two options: casoncelli stuffed with meat or casoncelli stuffed with bagòss (a typical local cheese). I had the meat ones topped with butter and sage. Truly excellent. I finished with a Baileys parfait, torn between the many dessert options (all homemade...it was hard to decide). Delicious 👍 I thank the staff for their hospitality and kindness. I highly recommend it. I think I'll definitely be back with my family. See you soon ☺️
