Crotto di Pino In Varenna

Very pleasant atmosphere and excellent food. Rustic setting with beautiful lake view. Fast service, kind and smiling waitresses. Every time we are in the area we stop very willingly. The menu changes often, while maintaining some constants.

Very nice cosy place, atmosphere is great. Delicious food, great wine, what do you need more? Worth to come and try.

Whisked up the mountain in a minivan, led through the kitchen to meet the family, sat with the most beautiful view. Friendly owner and amazing food. Would love to return. Thanks

I have been to this wonderful restaurant with a spectacular lake view and a relaxed atmosphere on my birthday, the food and the waiting staff are top, even the dishes offered on the menu are simple but with that special touch, such as the chocolate tagliatelle seasoned with a hare ragù and a pinch of cumin or the chestnut tagliatelle with forest ragù, not to mention the very fresh lake fish, tasty and delicate, and finally the desserts such as the chocolate cake with a zabaglione heart and the almond and rosemary cake with a lemon heart, a sublime combination.

Crotto di Pino simply fantastic, informal location with a breathtaking view of the lake. Excellent cuisine with careful care brought to date, availability and courtesy are the setting. Compliments to the chef and his wife for their kindness. We will return despite the distance.

Wonderful view of the lake, very intimate and welcoming place, suggestive atmosphere. Excellent quality dishes and very attentive and friendly service. I will definitely return :)

I found out about this restaurant in a video on Instagram and wanted to go yesterday for lunch with three other people. We didn't book but we were lucky because, arriving around 1:45 pm, we found a place and the owners prepared a table for us in a few minutes. Everything was delicious!! We ordered an appetizer, pappardelle (abundant fresh homemade pasta) with sausage ragù, chocolate pasta with hare ragù, beetroot and goat's cheese risotto and pasta with pesto (with hazelnuts). For the second course we ordered venison stew with porcini mushrooms and polenta, stewed cheek stew with polenta and lamb with potatoes and to finish in style, we ordered a tiramisu and a lemon, almond and rosemary tart. We spent two pleasant hours enjoying excellent dishes in a very romantic restaurant with soft music in the background with a beautiful view of the lake. Small parking lot reserved for customers. Thanks to the very kind and friendly owners with whom we had a nice chat. We will definitely be back.

Stunning terrace view with incredible peace, family atmosphere and good food and a unique price/quality ratio!

Only the landscape from the terrace will leave you speechless, ready to delight the tasty dishes. Top !!
