Il Sorriso In Argegno

Ristorante comodamente accessibile. Pulizia impeccabile con servizio attento. Memorabile il risotto con pesce persico. Prezzi giusti.

Un posto tranquillo con servizio più che soddisfacente e qualità del cibo molto alta. Ambiente molto semplice. Bella vista sul lago. Consigliati i taglieri e lo spiedone di filetto. Particolarmente empatica la signora che serve (credo sia la proprietaria). Attesa nella norma. Cantina da ampliare, ma sufficiente. Consigliato!

Cass was very good, congratulations

We came here with family for lunch. The menu isn’t very big, which is fine, but the options felt a bit limited. Prices are fair, especially considering it’s located near a tourist area or stop. Since we visited in early February during winter, the restaurant was quite cold—they could have turned the heating up a bit, as some of us had to keep our jackets on. I had the Fritto Misto, which was good—generous portion, easily enough for two people to share. One thing I usually look forward to is grilled vegetables, but unfortunately, they weren’t available, so I opted for a salad instead. The salad was large, which I appreciated. Overall, it’s an okay spot to eat, especially for tourists. The prices aren’t outrageous like in some other areas, and the food and service is good.

We ate at Il Sorriso on New Year’s Day 2025. I wasn’t sure what restaurants would be open on that day, but I was able to make a reservation online through TheFork. We had a reservation for nine people, and unfortunately, our friends that were driving from Milan got stuck because there was a major accident which closed the tunnel in Brienno. The staff at Il Sorriso could not have been more patient and understanding House our friends were late by 90 minutes! Our server checked in on my daughter, and I, as we waited for our other seven guests and said that it was not a problem and was very kind and accommodating. When they finally arrived, we ordered a ton of food. We had the bresaola appetizer with goat cheese and fried gnocchi which was delicious. My daughter ordered the Prosecco and Rosemary risotto, which was delicious. And I ordered the risotto with perch filets which was also great. And we ordered several bottles of local wine, which were reasonably priced and also very tasty. So our lunch that was supposed to start at 1 o’clock ended up starting at 2:30 and we didn’t leave the restaurant until close to 530 pm. Again, we never felt rushed, and we were well looked after. And finally, our table upstairs had a view of the lake. It wasn’t a huge window, but we could still see the lake. Highly recommended!

Satisfactory meal, both in quality and quantity. Reasonable price.

Found this place by chance and the owner was very friendly and the food was excellent. We will happily return

Pricing is wild anywhere you go. Portions are very small for spending almost 20€ for a plate of pasta

Very good restaurant, very friendly waiters! I highly recommend ☺️

Trendy place with excellent aperitifs and good food options
