We have been going to the Piccolo Chalet for so long (an obligatory stop every time we are in Aprica) and we have such a good time every time, that you think and take for granted that, looking at the Internet, it is the best place to eat in town.
And when you realize that this isn't the case (even if almost...) then maybe it's also your fault, because so far you've contributed to not reviewing a place that deserves 5 stars!
The environment is small but very nice and well-kept and Monica is a hostess who, together with her family, makes this place shine with her friendliness, helpfulness and competence.
On the menu, alongside the delicious traditional dishes such as pizzoccheri and sciatt, there are some gems, such as the touching game ravioli with Sassella reduction.
The cellar is very varied and well-stocked and Monica knows how to advise you excellently in case of indecision.
The prices are appropriate to what you eat and drink: of course, if you think clichély about spending little just because you are in the mountains, then you are off track. Furthermore, there are places in other mountain resorts that are perhaps more famous on paper where you spend significantly more to eat worse!
In summary: if you come to Aprica, you can't miss going!

It's my safe haven for when I come with friends to my house in Aprica and in the evening we want to indulge in the whim of tasting some typical food.
Small place with lots of tables close together but a very pleasant atmosphere, with super helpful and friendly staff.
As for the food, I consider it simple but of excellent quality throughout, in fact it is ideal for letting those who don't know them too closely taste sciatt and pizzoccheri.
The second courses are also very tasty, such as pork shank or lamb.
All of this is then accompanied by an excellent range of wines.
The prices are not low but in line with other typical restaurants I have been to.

The food was good, certainly quality raw materials cooked in the correct way.
The problem in my opinion are the prices, a little high for such a rustic place and such simple dishes but above all they don't correspond to the prices on the menu on the site.

Small environment but very attentive to the service. Enjoyed a lunch in February with my wife.
Ordered decent dishes, specifically a plate of sciatt, a plate of pizzoccheri, a plate of baked shin, still water, a glass of wine and coffee.
Average prices.

Sinceramente siamo rimasti un pò delusi, mi sarei aspettata di meglio viste le recensioni. Essendo Valtellinesi devo dire che i pizzoccheri non erano proprio nulla di chè , anzi ....
In generale qualità normale e prezzi un pò alti

Cosa dire … carta fantastica e completa
Personale gentilissimo ed attento
Posizionato in mezzo al verde per un relax totale
Provato di domenica a pranzo quindi con molte persone e nonostante questo tutto era perfetto
Ordinato scatt ottimi non unti e ben farciti
Lardo che si sciolieva in bocca servito con miele e castagne
Tagliata di cervo morbidissima
Vini ottimi
Prezzi perfetti per la qualità
Se non fossimo stati solo di passaggio saremmo ritornati subito
Torneremo senz’altro all’occasione e lo consigliamo vivamente
