La Gallina che Fuma In Verbania

What can I say? We happened to pass by the restaurant just before opening and were greeted by Francesca's smile and vivacity. However, she was just the beginning of a crescendo of positive emotions that kept us returning every day for the duration of our short vacation... the courtesy and helpfulness of a family, but the cuisine and quality of the dishes on par with a Michelin-starred restaurant. I mention Francesca because we were the only ones who showed up, but I thank EVERYONE (and I apologize for not naming them individually) for the quality of the entire service... from the presentation of the dishes and the daily selections, to the attention to customer service and especially to food intolerances with more than satisfactory alternatives... those who have ears to hear, almost good is too much of an understatement, you are excellent! Thanks again and we will definitely see you again.

We had a great meal, with plenty of gluten-free options (pasta, fritto misto, bread, desserts) and a casual, friendly atmosphere. Great attention to service. If we're in the area again, we'll definitely be back!

Excellent food, really. Ambience and service? Maybe even better! Great find, thank you!

The organization, hospitality, and attention to detail in preparing the dishes were top notch! Thanks again for everything!

Great experience, excellent quality food, very kind and friendly staff. I would definitely go back.

I had dinner at this restaurant yesterday with my two children and had a truly wonderful experience. The food was exceptional: the spaghetti was perfect, the fritto misto was crispy and light, the lasagna was tasty and well-made, and the desserts… simply phenomenal! The staff was very welcoming, kind, and always available, making us feel at ease right away. The place is also truly unique and beautiful, with attention to detail and a pleasant atmosphere. Highly recommended, we'll definitely be back!

Fast and friendly staff, very good food, even for vegetarians and GFs. Highly recommended

Booked for lunch, welcoming and kind owners, super bathroom especially for those with small children, delicious food, impeccable, top in everything, we will return and we will definitely recommend it, thanks!
