Italia In Stresa

The staff were very friendly; we arrived at 3:00 PM, and they served us with kindness and helpfulness. The food was truly excellent; I haven't found such good fish in a seaside location for years. Furthermore, the prices were more than justified, perhaps even low for the location and quality.

Great service, great food!!! Highly recommended

The marinated fish antipasti was delicious. We had a wonderful time in this little garden.

Very kind staff. My wife, son, and I arrived. We booked a small table (highly recommended) and then continued with the tour of the village. When we returned at the time of our reservation, we sat on the beautiful terrace overlooking the lake. The owner was very kind and friendly, and the staff was knowledgeable and efficient. We ate some lake fish dishes! Everything was delicious! The price was very fair! Highly recommended!

Really good. Average price for the island. Friendly staff.

Today we went to this restaurant for a very large family lunch, about thirty people. The food was excellent and high-quality, the service very professional, and the service was enriched with short videos about fishing and the work they do with passion and love for the lake. We found a welcoming atmosphere and felt like part of the family. We thank Mr. Stefano and all his staff. Our compliments LAVURI Family

Divine! Christmas motorboat to the Island of Lights – Nativity scenes and flavors on Fishermen's Island: a truly special evening, one that will last a lifetime. For the lights event, we booked dinner at Ristorante Italia, on the island of the same name, and even our arrival on the water, amidst the Christmassy reflections and atmosphere, promised something unique. I'm not a fan of fish—especially lake fish—but I have to say that here they literally made me love it. Dishes of lake fish were divinely prepared, carefully presented, and passionately described by the owner: a talkative, pleasant, and deeply engaging person. Like the rest of the family, of course, but he in particular was able to guide us, with enthusiasm and expertise, in choosing the best they had to offer. The photos speak clearly and tell a lot, even if they can't fully convey the emotions we experienced at the table. Last but not least, the discovery that the restaurant also offers round-trip boat transportation to and from Baveno and Stresa. A boat piloted by the son: a detail that makes all the difference and makes the experience even more intimate, complete, and evocative. An evening of lights dancing on the water, authentic flavors, and genuine people. One to cherish forever.

My husband, our dog, and I had lunch here yesterday. Everyone was very kind and answered all my questions. The risotto alla Borromeo is highly recommended. We'll be back.

Great atmosphere, great food, and great hospitality. Thank you so much.

With a beautiful covered terrace overlooking the lake, the restaurant is a real gem at the end of Isola dei Pescatori. We managed to get a table even though it was New Year's Day and we didn't have a reservation; the service was very friendly and attentive. We tried the Borromean risotto with perch, the house specialty, and the fried fish, a huge quantity! Everything was very tasty and well-balanced. The bill was a bit pricey, but given the location, we weren't expecting anything less. It's a shame that the service was a bit sloppy, and we had to ask several times for something, which is understandable given the rush that day.
