La Bottega dei Messapi In Verbania

We had Easter lunch, and as always, the ingredients were good, but... I think they've also lost sight of the value of their money, because I paid €45 (€225 per kg) for the grilled meat, which weighed less than 180g—just a rough estimate—but I'd be happy to be proven wrong by the chef or the owner. It's a criticism that "perhaps" might be helpful for some reflection.

Magnificent cuisine, excellent welcome and warm service – a must-visit if you come to Verbania.

There were four of us for dinner. Friendly, delicious food, and highly recommended.

An excellent experience, the owner was a delightful person who accompanied us throughout the evening. The fish was excellent and of a higher quality than anywhere else in Verbania, the prices were reasonable for the effort and quality of the place, and the atmosphere was quiet and elegant. The best seafood restaurant in Verbania, we'll definitely be back. A true Champions League dinner 😉

Compliments to the Chef! We had a delicious lunch here. Daniele and Gianfranco were very kind. We were provided with the best suggestions on what to enjoy - thank you so much! The food was fantastic and we will definitely return again 😊 Highly recommended 🙏

We had a wonderful evening at this fantastic restaurant. From the moment we arrived, Sal gave us a warm and friendly welcome – we immediately felt at home. The cuisine is creative and full of flavor, with many homemade dishes prepared with great care and attention to detail. Every course was a delight. The service was exceptionally friendly and attentive, yet pleasantly unobtrusive. The interior is also very stylish and charming – you feel completely at ease. We were thrilled and will definitely be back!

Excellent restaurant. We had dinner with family and friends, and every course was a real discovery. Highly recommended. Excellent for seafood lovers 🐠

Excellent food quality; reasonable prices. The only authentic Apulian cuisine in the area. Open kitchen; super owner!!!

An excellent restaurant, located in a welcoming little square, where quality reigns supreme, combined with a modern and sophisticated atmosphere, a very clean open kitchen, and original dishes, refined and harmonious in flavor, prepared with fresh and distinctive ingredients. The owner is very professional and kind, with a keen eye for children, from the menu to the entertainment provided with paper and pencils. Quick and attentive service.

Fantastic place! At La Bottega dei Messapi I ate incredibly fresh fish: top quality, authentic flavors, and raw ingredients that make all the difference. Daniele explained to us that the fish comes directly from Puglia, and you can definitely taste it! Exceptional hospitality and divine service: always present, kind, and professional. Chef Daniele's wine recommendation? EXCELLENT. If there were six stars, I'd give them all: very fair prices, incredible quality, customer service, and super-trained staff. Thank you, Daniele, and thanks to the entire team. I'll definitely be back. Highly recommended!
