Il Giardinetto In Mandello del lario

This restaurant is definitely a must-visit in the region! I highly recommend it; the service and food are exceptional, and the price is extremely reasonable for such quality.

Exceptional restaurant overlooking the lake. The dishes were of the highest quality and the waiters were friendly. I had a great time and will definitely return. Recommended.

We had the pleasure to stumble upon this restaurant yesterday without any reservation or knowledge. Really nice surprise and the food was delicious. Small miscommunication with the service about the main dish. But that’s because of the language barrier. After all if you are around you should definitely eat here

Splendid location with a beautiful lake view

I went last night with my girlfriend. We didn't know it and found it through Google... We were speechless. Honestly, I couldn't say more than recommend it... Probably the best restaurant I've eaten at this year. The view is obviously enchanting, and that's definitely a plus, but I have to say that if the view is enchanting, the service is PERFECT, and to say the food is a true bliss is an understatement... I was literally won over, and I'll definitely be back. Congratulations indeed... *The Guzzi is gorgeous

We went to lunch last Sunday at this excellent restaurant. We had a lake tasting menu and I must say that everything was excellent. The rice with perch was among the best I have eaten. The guys in the dining room were very nice and kind!

Family Lunch May 24, 2025 We contacted Giardinetto to organize a family lunch following the civil ceremony of our wedding. Our requests were particular: in fact, for us this was simply an opportunity to be together with the immediate family, not a real reception. We explained our needs to the staff and they were able to not only accommodate us, but also make the experience special in its simplicity. The food, excellent and of quality, met the taste of all the guests, who complimented us. Even the cake, made by a pastry chef, was really good and well-made. All framed by a spectacular view of the lake. We will definitely be back!!!

Everything was excellent. Amazing food and location with a breathtaking view. The wait staff was prepared, courteous and discreet. Prices in line with the quality of the food and the beauty of the place. Congratulations, we will come back to visit you soon.

Magnifico. Periodicamente frequento il locale. Per il pranzo di Pasqua ci siamo sentiti coccolati, solito servizio impeccabile e per quanto riguarda le portate…..perfette. Non aggiungo altro, bastano le foto che potrete vedere.

Abbiamo visitato il ristorante oggi a pranzo dopo una bella esperienza di Volo sul lago di Como. Il locale è in una posizione da sogno e personalmente ho apprezzato tantissimo la location, molto pulita ed essenziale, senza inutili orpelli. Una semplice e bellissima vetrina sul lago. Abbiamo mangiato un antipasto di lago da 10 (il club sandwich) ed un risotto al persico ottimamente eseguito e molto bilanciato. Il servizio inizialmente è stato piuttosto lento a causa del locale pieno, ma siamo rimasti colpiti di come i camerieri se ne siano accorti e abbiano fatto di tutto per recuperare senza che gli dicessimo nulla, facendo uscire alcuni nostri piatti prima. Due membri dello staff separatamente si sono scusati e lo trovo un gesto molto professionale e che fa capire che si ha a che fare con persone che ci tengono a fare bene. Una bellissima parentesi sul lago, a cui do volentieri il massimo!
