La Colombetta In Como

Mi familia y yo amamos este lugar. La comida era increíble y los dos propietarios eran tan amables y acogedores. La comida era tan fresca y la magdalena de chocolate era WOW! Sin duda volveremos!

Excellent restaurant in the center of Como, with plenty of space inside. The tables are spacious and beautifully set. The food is very good; we only had fish, and I must say the quality of the ingredients is excellent and it was superbly cooked. The restaurant is run by three sisters: one in the kitchen and the other two in the dining room. The carasau bread is delicious. The service was prompt. We will definitely be back!

From the moment my wife and I stepped into Ristorante La Columbetta, we were swept into an unforgettable dining experience that stands as the finest we’ve ever had. The evening began with the festive pop of a complimentary prosecco, setting a warm, celebratory tone. The staff’s attentive, yet unobtrusive, service made us feel like honored guests, with every need anticipated and met with genuine warmth. Each dish was a masterpiece—bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and crafted with evident care. What truly astonished us was the bill, which felt remarkably reasonable for such an extraordinary experience. The owners have created a gem that delivers not just a meal, but a memory to cherish. Do yourself a favor and book a table—you won’t be disappointed.

Wonderful lunch....Marianna excellent cook...assisted by her sisters Lina and Silvana to make everything sublime...an experience to be repeated when you meet professionals of this kind...

If you’re in Como and want the real Italian experience, this restaurant is an absolute must. Hands down, it was the best food I had in all of Italy and that’s saying a lot! Every bite was full of flavor, tradition, and love. You can feel that the recipes have been passed down through generations, and every dish is made with care. What makes it even more special is that it’s owned and run by a local Italian family, and their warmth truly makes the entire experience unforgettable. The service was amazing so kind, attentive, and welcoming. You don’t just feel like a customer; you feel like a guest in their home. From the moment you sit down, to the last spoon of dessert or sip of wine, you’re wrapped in authentic Italian hospitality. It’s not just a meal it’s a memory. This is the kind of place you’ll dream about going back to. If you’re looking for that “nonna is cooking in the kitchen” type of experience with heartfelt service and unforgettable food this is it. If I could give it more stars I would give it infinity, this place deserves the world.

My wife and I enjoyed a fantastic Italian meal at La Colombetta. The food was amazing and the service was great - the sisters who run this restaurant go above and beyond to give their customers an authentic Italian experience. We will be back next time we are in Como.

I dine out frequently and I have to say this was one of the finest culinary experiences I can remember. La Colombetta was an absolute smash hit from the minute we arrived, it’s located in what was once a 13th century church, but completely renovated with a modern chic vibe, all that remains of the church is some of the original ceiling graphics which remain visible. This is family owned and operated, run by three sisters and their brother, also on hand were identical twin daughters, who provided service with 5 star excellence. We were warmly greeted by one of the sisters and provided with a complimentary glass of prosecco and some very tasty thin pita chips with a drizzle of evoo. Followed by their house red wine that was fantastic. We literally wanted to order everything on the menu, but we went with some favorites. Started with the Buratta served with sweet cherry tomatoes, evoo and a balsamic glaze drizzle, very artistically presented, it was excellent, cheese was rich and creamy. For our next course we went with pasta (of course) Tagliolini with Lobster for two, and the Spinach Ravioli with Tomato Sauce and Basil, both were excellent. Then on to the Grilled Lamb chops, again excellent. As much as we wanted to order more, we were stuffed and wanted to leave room for the homemade desserts. We ordered the Crème Brûlée and Lemon & Mandarin Sorbet. I inquired what was taking a few minutes, I was told it’s not ready, we’re making it fresh. This was by far the absolute best Crème Brûlée I had ever had, right out of the oven, even the plate was still hot. Same for the Lemon Sorbet, best I’ve ever had. Everything here is freshly homemade to order. Best restaurant in Como, possibly all of Italy, if you’re there, this is a must! Dining here is like dining with your family, they make you feel right at home. You never know who you might see here, every celebrity that visited Como has dined here, I’m told it’s Clooneys favorite restaurant, De Niro, Sandler, Jagger and many others dine here. When I shared my enthusiasm over the meal, I was invited into the kitchen to meet the rest of the family, this may be the cleanest kitchen I’ve ever seen. Reservations strongly recommended. Please note, as this is an intimate spot, I limited my interior pics as not to disturb or invade the other guests. It really is very beautiful.

Fabulous! Food, service and atmosphere are all excellent. Find this jewel if you are visiting Como.

Absolutely lovely experience at Ristorante La Colombetta! We had a variety of delicious fish dishes paired with great wine. The ambiance is charming, and the sisters running the place are warm and wonderfully entertaining. Highly recommend!
