opera viva In Stintino

03/08/2024: Nice location... friendly staff... nice view of the lake...

23/07/2024: A restaurant with a fantastic view. We were here in July 2024. The restaurant is on a VERY steep slope, so make sure you have a car that can handle the climb. The restaurant itself is very nice with a view of the lake. It is super cozy. The food tastes great. The staff is super nice, we got one who could speak English. It was unfortunately necessary, both because we didn't know Italian, but also because if you want something other than pizza, there is unfortunately no menu card. It's a bit strange that the restaurant didn't have this when you think that's what they do for a living. We would love to give this place 5 stars, but the service doesn't get top marks. Although our waitress was very nice, we waited a very long time for each dish. Add to that that my boyfriend ordered a new glass of wine which never arrived. It was good enough on the bill, but they deducted it, as she was also well aware that she had forgotten it. A shame because, had it not been for the little things, it would have received top marks in all of them. We still think the restaurant is worth a visit and the question is whether we were just unlucky with the service, because she was both friendly and sweet.
