La Bussola In Garda

We came here because of the many good reviews. Unfortunately, we were somewhat disappointed. You do get a lot of lovely touches (pizza bread, aperitif, limoncello), but the food itself (we had spaghetti carbonara and spaghetti ragù) was rather disappointing. It had nothing to do with authentic Italian cuisine. The carbonara didn't contain pancetta, but rather a different fatty ham, and the sauce was more of a cream sauce; the ragù had hardly any meat. The waiters were very nice and attentive, but the quality of the food needs improvement.

We arrived without a reservation on a weekday evening in early June. We were able to sit at a table in the "garden" without any waiting. I'm (typically German) a bit skeptical of excessive attention, but this proved to be completely unfounded. With the menu, you immediately receive a glass of sparkling wine. While waiting, instead of breadsticks or rolls, you're offered a pizza bread – very tasty with olive oil. After the meal, with the coffee/dessert menu, you receive a shot glass of sweet treat (passion fruit ice cream). And to finish, a limoncello. The salad, pasta, and lasagna were delicious. We ordered a liter of beer (intended to share) and expected a pitcher, but it arrived in a liter mug 😁. It was then placed in the middle of the table. Note: Some reviews here show outdoor areas that do not belong to this restaurant. It has several tables in the narrow alleyway where it's located, some inside, and two rows in the "garden" behind the building, which is shaded by an awning and partitioned. Sanitary information: The women's restroom is perfectly fine.

Amazing food Amazing service and free drink on arrival free garlic bead free sorbet and free shot at the end. The server was attentive and food came quick. A must go to in my eyes thanks for an amazing meal 5☆

Delicious mussels, a great salad, and the pizza was excellent too. We like to eat at different restaurants, but I think we'll have to come back again tomorrow 👍

Seriously the best pizza and pasta I've ever eaten. The espresso and mandarin ice cream are also a 10/10. The waiters are incredibly friendly and attentive. Absolutely recommended and my favorite place in Garda!

A wonderful family dinner. The service was excellent and very attentive. The food was fantastic and exceeded our high expectations. We were served a welcome aperitif, followed by a mixed fish and seafood appetizer, which we shared. It was plenty for two people. Then came the delicious main courses. All at very reasonable prices. We'd love to come back!

The pasta tasted incredibly good. Highly recommended.

We got a table in the courtyard without a reservation. It was pleasantly quiet there. As soon as we sat down, the menu arrived, along with a small aperitif for each of us. After ordering, we received a delicious complimentary pizza bread. When it started to rain, we were immediately moved to a sheltered spot. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The main courses (pizza and spaghetti carbonara) were also very tasty. For dessert, we were offered a small complimentary dessert and a complimentary limoncello.
