La Baita In Lanzo d'intelvi

I can't rate the restaurant because it was closed. The place is beautiful from the outside. I passed by on one of my bike rides after a good snowfall. The landscape is surreal and wonderful. At Sighignola there is also a ski lift which, in the months with good snowfall, is also great for having fun with the kids, skiing and private lessons. Highly recommended, but not very big.

We arrived at noon after visiting the Balcony of Italy, three minutes up the road. Beautiful location, just what you'd expect from a mountain hut: plenty of parking and plenty of seating. A warm welcome and simple, polite, and attentive service. I've seen better photos of the dishes I was served. The fried porcini mushrooms weren't great in my case, but still good and not overly greasy. Pizzoccheri were amazing, truly expertly made. The pappardelle with wild boar ragù was a little less so... the pasta was very well cooked, but the ragù was a little bland and lacking, especially compared to some photos I've seen in other reviews. A quart of red wine on tap was good, along with water, coffee, and a shared tiramisu. The cream was very good, and the ladyfingers were barely soaked in the coffee, much to my wife's delight, but not so much mine 😁 All for €46. The price of the individual dishes is a bit high in my opinion, but they're the only ones there, so I'd say they were fair compared to what they could have done. Next time we'll definitely make sure to visit the Balcony of Italy again around noon 😋

Historic mountain hut on top of the mountain where sometimes when it snows heavily there are also ski lifts. It was once an excellent destination for skiing in the Como area. Today only the hut remains, which still offers food such as pizzoccheri sciatt and various potent dishes. Prices are lower than in the city, but still reach 30/40 euros per person.

Friendly staff, very good food, and reasonable prices...an excellent crotto immersed in a splendid landscape and a great starting point for wonderful walks. Recommended.

In short, La Baita is not just a place to eat well, it is a place where you rediscover authentic flavors and live a culinary experience that remains etched in your memory. I can't wait to return!

We stopped for lunch after a view from the Balcony of Italy. Polenta with delicious venison sauce. Pappardelle with wild boar ragù was good, but lacked sauce. Delicious apple strudel. Good coffee. Nice place. We'll definitely be back.

Whether you're on a motorcycle ride or starting a hike, it's worth a stop. Authentic flavors of yesteryear Noteworthy dessert trolley Excellent wine list Quiet location There are also outdoor tables for sunny days, or inside, spacious rooms with a lovely fireplace Excellent service Adequate prices There are two large parking lots

I ate divinely after being at the Balcony of Italy.....we will be back soon

Always happy to return after visiting Sighignola balcone d'Italia.

Nice place with ample parking 1 km from the Balcony of Italy, ample parking both next to and in front, good food
