La Storica di Asso In Asso

By the time we got our appetizers, we were practically full. Excellent food. Excellent service. We'll be back.

Lunch was excellent, to say the least. Very friendly staff.

We had bruschetta as a starter, porterhouse with potatoes as a main course, and tiramisu for dessert. He said it was the best tiramisu in Italy, and he wasn't lying, it really was very good. The service was also excellent.

What a great experience. Food was incredibly good quality and very well served and we were taken care of by the best team we have met in years. Antipasti were amazing, home made pasta was high level and wine very very good. Highly recommended

The experience at Storica is almost transcendental... Everything is perfect, everything is delicious, and Angelo (the owner) is the perfect host. I came in for the first time and it felt like I'd been there forever. Thank you so much for everything, delicious and high-quality.

The place and atmosphere are unique, different from the usual. The staff is friendly and very helpful with their stories and recommendations. The service is quick, and the food is very good, especially the meat.

Everything was perfect! Excellent appetizers with quality cured meats and cheeses. Excellent first courses. The grilled meat was incredibly tender. The chef's homemade desserts were delicious. Discreet and punctual service. The atmosphere was relaxed and friendly. The price was reasonable for the dishes we ate. We'll definitely be back.

Simply fantastic. Quality products and attentive service. From charcuterie to stew, including truffle and chestnut pasta, we were warmly welcomed by a generous team who introduced us to their delicious homemade creations. If you're looking for a rustic, local atmosphere with friendly service and lovingly prepared home-style cooking, come here!

Friends and I met for lunch at this old trattoria (hence the name "Storica") in the village of Asso, which itself offers nothing touristy. This was a transit town whose road was an axis that crossed the Larian Triangle, before the Valassina was built. From the 1920s to the 1940s, Asso was the finish line of the Coppa del Lario circuit race, a race that has now faded over the years and perhaps even from the memory of many locals. Enough of the historical notes... Today, people go to Asso only to sample the dishes of "Storica," a family-run trattoria where the quality of the ingredients is paramount, a fundamental aspect today for those who want a quality trattoria or restaurant without having to look for a Michelin-starred establishment. The search for "quality" products is left to Angelo, who diligently searches for cured meats, cheeses, meat, and poultry every week. She grows the vegetables herself in her own garden. Well, what can I say except that raw materials reign supreme. In the kitchen, Chef Nicoletta transforms the ingredients, turning her love for cooking into a tool for palates who appreciate well-crafted traditional dishes, revisiting them slightly with a more modern twist, without compromising the essence of tradition and the quality of the ingredients used. The desserts, entirely homemade, as befits all good cuisine, are rigorously made by Angelo, and here a lunch that began well and ended beautifully concludes on a high note. The wine cellar is meticulously curated, and the selection of lesser-known but high-quality labels complements the food. The dining room service, coordinated by Angelo and Susi, is impeccable. There's a saying: "Seeing is believing." Hi...

This is my second visit to this place, and I fully confirm my excellent impression. A welcoming atmosphere, friendly, helpful, and professional staff, and truly delicious dishes. The welcome drink and the sweet treats at the end were much appreciated. A place where you feel good and want to return.
