Delicious pizza at a great price. The service was wonderful and the order was processed quickly. I highly recommend it!

Excellent!!!!!!! The food was great 👍 so friendly staff 🥰🥰

Amazing food, great wine, very friendly and helpful staff, great atmosphere! It was one of my best restaurant experiences!

Everything was extraordinary, my first pizza in Italy and we weren't disappointed! The Sardinian wine was also perfect. The panna cotta for dessert was a real treat, a delight. I recommend this restaurant, nothing to complain about.

A pleasant discovery. We were passing through Valbrona on our motorcycle, and a storm forced us to stop and discover this lovely restaurant/pizzeria. We had two delicious pizzas, and I agree with the positive reviews. Next time we'll try the fish, which, judging by the dishes served by the neighboring diners, looked very inviting. The place is welcoming, and the staff is very friendly.

The menu you'll find online isn't the menu they offer. Especially at lunch. The chef's description on their website isn't what you'll find on your plate. When you enter, the place looks very nice (definitely from the previous owners), but the owner and her mother who serve tables in the summer are wearing flip-flops (perhaps they don't know that restaurant tradition dictates closed-toe shoes—both for hygiene and for appearance). For this reason, we decided not to risk any "dishes" but to order pizza. The pizza, very thin and crispy when hot (but difficult to cut), becomes rubbery when it cools. It reminds me a lot of pizzas I've eaten in very touristy locations (undefinable, but not in a positive way). I won't add anything else so as not to bore you. Not recommended. Highly not recommended. PS: It was hot. Very hot, and they didn't turn on the air conditioning. They opened the windows and French doors. But it was hot. Very hot

It's very difficult to be amazed on Lake Como. After years spent searching for authenticity and tradition, I was losing hope amidst restaurants offering frozen pinsas, ready-made meals, and superficial catering. I stumbled upon Domenico and Alessia, explorers and pioneers of high-end dining in Valbrona, an area renowned for its game specialties and mountain culture. Here, thanks to Domenico's passion for quality cuisine, under the watchful eye of Alessia, he offers Mediterranean cuisine featuring seafood and local products, a fertile ground for a new beginning. The tireless Laura, the chef's mother, personally oversees every table, ensuring every dish is a success, blending the future with tradition with a smile that will spread. Today, a game-themed dinner event... porcini mushroom risotto, pappardelle with wild boar, wild boar shank, and sirloin steak. Three different cooking methods, three different experiences. Let yourself be tempted by Domenico's skill. I don't know how to best describe this evening other than to tell you that it's worth stopping by.

The location is in the center of Valbrona, just steps from Oliveto Lario and Bellagio. It offers convenient free public parking. Excellent seafood and meat cuisine. Very good pizza, with a gourmet option. Prices are in line with other restaurants in the area where you want quality food. Definitely accessible to everyone, families or couples. Domenico, the owner, and Alessia are very kind and friendly. Highly recommended, I'll be back.

La Mandragola in Valbrona is a true gem. Alessia and Domenico, the owners, are spectacular: welcoming, genuine, and with an infectious passion for what they do. The food is supremely high quality, and every dish exudes freshness and attention to detail. The fish is simply exceptional: as fresh as if fresh from the sea, a quality that is difficult, if not impossible, to find in the area. From appetizer to dessert, every course is a masterpiece. Congratulations, you are absolute masters! We will definitely be back and I recommend it to anyone looking for an authentic, top-notch gastronomic experience.
