Grotto Mazzardit In Pino sulla sponda del lago maggiore

Basically, this is a beautifully located restaurant with fine cuisine and sometimes very friendly and attentive staff. However, it may be of interest to families to know that children are not welcome here! We ate there with two children and unfortunately quickly had the feeling that we were second-class guests. And this despite the fact that our children behaved in an absolutely exemplary manner and certainly no one felt disturbed by them. Only a childless, well-heeled clientele is welcome here. It would certainly be beneficial for everyone involved if this were clearly communicated in advance.

Don't go during the holidays!!!! On normal days the service is excellent!! The bar downstairs served us a watered-down spritz made with wine on tap, a "little cup of chips": €8 for the spritz. When I complained, at least he didn't make me pay!!! It can make the Swiss fools!!!

Very tasty and super friendly service! Thank you very much, we will definitely come back! There are buoys for boats, but reservations should be made.

The food is OK, not above average. Totally unpersonal service: no welcome, no smile, no real contact between waiter(s) and customers. We were serviced/served by 4 different waiters. All of them were busy and efficient, but were missing the most important part: communicate with your customer. The menu was Italian language, and translation had to be done using our phone, where we could pull up a menu in 6 different languages. We ordered, the food came quickly, we ate and paid and left.

Locale curato, piatti ottimi e ben presentati, bella location , servizio puntuale e cortese. Ampio parcheggio, navetta per attracco barche disponibile

Positive review for this place. Excellent location for those who love these landscapes (lake front). It has place settings available inside if anyone wants to stay indoors. The dishes were delicious, from starters to desserts. Once dinner is finished, you can admire the view of the lake more closely, since it is possible to reach the place by lake. Very romantic for couples.

For us, everything was very tasty and unexpectedly beautiful. The waiters seemed slow, but they prepared everything for us quickly and we were very pleased. Prices are like on the lake, higher than everywhere else

Jannis, Vincenzo is the chef they are so good the lunch incredible, berth included everything fantastic

When the restaurant gets full, it becomes a bit stressful for the staff. Then you forget something... But we're all just human. I ordered sea bass and grilled vegetables, which were prepared really well, but it didn't fill you up either

IN BREVE: location molto bella, pesce fresco e buono, cani più che benvenuti, manca l'attenzione ai dettagli. Più nello specifico.. CUCINA: piatti belli e ben presentati. Abbiamo preso antipasti e primi, il pesce se assaggiato singolarmente era davvero buono, ma si perdeva nei primi a cui mancava una spinta in più (tagliolini al gamberi e spaghetto alle vongole). Antipasti nulla da dire DETTAGLI: ecco alcune cose da migliorare per rendere una location bella e dal buon potenziale più apprezzabile: - attenzione al menù: se mi scrivete tagliolini e spaghettone quadrato, questi sono i formati di pastq che mi aspetto di trovare nel piatto. Non uno spaghetto normale e una cosa che di certo tagliolino non è. - servizio: ho chiesto un calice di vino extra alla cameriera che ha risposto di dover chiedere ad uno degli uomini in servizio e non a lei. Capisco la divisione dei compiti, ma piuttosto che sia la cameriera a mandare al tavolo chi di competenza (carina la cameriera ad essersi poi scusata per la gaffe) - esterno: a cena finita è servito il flash del telefono per arrivare alla macchina... un lampione ad illuminare il camminamento sarebbe cosa gradita - conto: ci è stato presentato lo scontrino di un altro tavolo per errore, quindi controllate che stiate effettivamente pagando la vostra consumazione. - sala: un pochino di cura in più nella pulizia dei convettori molto impolverati e delle ragnatele vicino alle luci.
