Crotto di Biosio In Bellano

Nothing can be said other than SPECTACULAR! Aside from a chestnut dessert that wasn't exactly delicious (and which was very kindly not included in the price), everything was wonderful. Excellent products. The dishes were beyond delicious. Truly a place that leaves you smiling! Not to mention the beauty of the location and the view! 5 super stars!

Top restaurant! We called at 1:30 PM to reserve a table, and even though they closed at 2:00 PM, they were incredibly accommodating and kind. Not to mention the deliciousness of their dishes. We had pizzoccheri for our first course, and I've never had such good pizzoccheri. For our second course, the sliced ​​beef was exquisite and incredibly tender. Absolutely wonderful! I absolutely recommend this place for everything, especially the beautiful lake view!

Very tasty, local dishes. We were absolutely satisfied with the food and the service. Highly recommended.

Crotto di Biosio Restaurant (Bellano, Lake Como): What it offers, its atmosphere, its menu, its strengths, and its potential limitations. --- General Information & Context Located in Frazione Biosio, 1, Bellano (LC). It is a family-run restaurant with a history rooted in a traditional restaurant: "Crott del Balin," frequented by hikers along the Sentiero del Viandante (Wayfarer's Path). In the 1960s, the Denti family took over the current management, expanding and transforming it into what is now Crotto di Biosio. This restaurant is part of the Biosio farmhouse, which also offers accommodations, an olive oil mill, a swimming pool, and relaxation. --- Atmosphere and Location Spectacular panoramic location: overlooking Lake Como and nestled just above the lake, surrounded by greenery. The views are highlighted as one of the restaurant's strong points by reviews. The atmosphere is rustic and welcoming. There are indoor rooms with fireplaces, very pleasant in the winter, and outdoor tables/terraces that allow you to dine al fresco while enjoying the view in the warmer seasons. It is suitable for both relaxed occasions and special occasions. They organize evenings with live music, aperitifs overlooking the lake, parties, and private receptions. --- Cuisine and Menu Typical local cuisine, with strong ties to the local area. Use of locally sourced products: authentic cured meats, mountain cheeses, garden vegetables, fresh salads, and seasonal produce. They offer select meats, grilled meats, and lake fish. Popular dishes include trout, lavaret, local meats, and mushrooms foraged in the woods. Some typical menu items: egg macaroni with sausage ragù; lasagna with sausage and porcini mushrooms with smoked scamorza; ravioli with buckwheat bresaola in butter and sage; and antipasti with local cured meats. --- Prices, Reviews, and Highlights Price range: Medium, with a meal around €25-30 per person if you order à la carte. Main Highlights: - Spectacular lake view, very picturesque location. - Good, carefully prepared food with traditional dishes. - Welcoming atmosphere, friendly staff. --- Possible Limitations or Criticisms Beware of long wait times, especially during peak periods (e.g., summer Sundays) when the restaurant is very busy. Because of its panoramic location and outside the city center, you'll need to drive or have a vehicle to get there. It's not in the heart of Bellano.

The best food, the best wine, the best desserts. Thank you so much!

Excellent lake view. Friendly and attentive staff. Excellent value for money.

Delicioso lugar para comer después de una caminata por la mañana colina arriba. Quesos caseros y abundante comida auténtica y local. Excelentes vistas del lago.
