Crotto dei Platani In Brienno

We celebrated my father-in-law's 80th birthday, it was a nice dinner, too bad it was very hot. The dishes are good but need to be revised a little...my half paccheri with wild boar sauce with pine nuts and Taggiasca olives are quite salty. Excellent birthday cake Chantilly cake with strawberries.. Good table service from the waiters. It's a shame that at a certain time the table was filled with flying midges and so were the glasses. In the context, a welcome dinner, even if the price of the bill was a little high, but it fits the location. The only flaw there was was when the waiter came out of the kitchen with the birthday cake already with the candles lit, we couldn't even snap a few holes as they were in a hurry to cut it.

All perfect for a quiet lunch with a beautiful view of the lake. We ate very well from starters to dessert. We recommend

A place that nestles perfectly around the 3 stars. Where promise and expectations about food meet a mediocre reality. The service does not lack friendliness and presence, but the sum of missing details does not allow a full rating. Where a wobbly table and superfluous speeches in the background do not allow you to excel in the atmosphere.. Winter dinner.. I want to believe that during the warm months they have another gear.

Extraordinary dining experience with incomparable views of Lake Como. Delicious food, great wine list, impeccable service.

Top Restaurant, super Service and friendly staff. Food top of the top. Get a Michelin star 😄

Outstanding service and good food. The ossobuco was really good.

The photos speak for themselves! Very nice and intimate environment Many compliments to the dining room staff and especially to the owner Francesco!

The secret is to roll your eyes! If you see that it's clear and a sweet lunar smile puts some romantic thoughts in your mind, cross your fingers and hope there's room! It will be a truly unique experience!

Haben hier unseren Hochzeitstag im Kreise von Freunden verbracht. Klassische italienische Küche in Fine Dining Qualität , aufmerksamer Service, tolle Location! Sehr schön!

Se siete stati in questo luogo meraviglioso e pieno di fascino qualche anno fa conservatene il ricordo e non tornateci più. Dopo 8 anni sono tornato ma è molto cambiato. Non è più un crotto semplice ma raffinato dal tipico spirito lombardo dai buoni sapori nostrani. Ora è indirizzato ad una clientela internazionale VIP con piatti elaborati ma che non soddisfano il palato. Peccato. Quando siamo arrivati senza prenotare ci hanno detto che forse ci trovavano un posticino ma la stanza in cui ci hanno dato il tavolo è rimasta completamente vuota. Preso ossobuco con risotto in cui il risotto era bruciato e secco . 34 euro . Mia moglie ha preso la frittura di lago dove i pezzetti di pesci erano sommersi dalle verdure : sedano e rapa !! Per 32 euro . Peccato anche il conto esagerato. Con un piatto e un caffè con gelato con mia moglie ho speso 115 euro . E mi sono accorto che sul conto volevano farmi spendere 15 euro per un caffè shakerato! Alle mie osservazioni si sono scusati . Insomma tanto fumo e poco arrosto.
