Osteria da Nonna Clara In Vergiate

14/07/2026: I'd seen this place many times while driving past, but had never had the opportunity. But the other evening, while looking for a place to eat, we passed it for the umpteenth time and decided to stop and see if they had a table available, and they did. The place is very well presented, and at first glance, you're captivated by the antique and unique decor, featuring various motoring memorabilia scattered throughout. We ate outside under a large pergola overlooking the entire property. We were also lucky to find it was a day with live jazz music, and this was a pleasant coincidence; the band playing and singing was very good. But let's move on to the food. Each of us—there were three of us—had a dish and shared a mozzarella in carrozza as an appetizer while waiting for the first course. Then a bottle of wine and that was it. Obviously, it's not enough to judge, but based on the quality I received, I'd say I'm satisfied. I have to say that the risotto I ate wasn't the best, and given the price, I would have expected more, perhaps a different plating. It came in a square bowl that didn't look great, while other dishes were served on very nice, antique-style plates. Anyway, I'd say it's a place worth trying again because I'm sure it can offer some great food. So I'll definitely give it another chance 😉😊

28/06/2026: Mosquitoes galore! It's true that dinner is outdoors, but being attacked like this is unacceptable. Unfortunately, we forgot our repellent at home, so we asked the wait staff for it. The first waitress replied that it wasn't there... the second waitress contradicted her colleague, saying she would have brought it to the table even though it never arrived. When paying, we pointed this out... the response was: it's normal, we're in the countryside, and mosquitoes are around from 9:30 PM to 10:00 PM. I recommend reviewing the automatic "natural repellent" system because, in addition to ending up on the food when it's dispensed, it's not at all effective...
