Rarica In Tradate

09/04/2026: We were passing through this area on our holiday and we are so happy that we found this restaurant. Food was excellent and so was the service and ambiance too. We ordered a starter and I don’t eat meat, so they offered a vegetarian option, and it was delicious. The main course was also excellent and the dessert was cherry on top,fresh yoghurt with berries, so good and fresh. Our waiter Omar was great and really friendly. He kindly gave us many tips on what to do and see in the area. We recommend this family owned restaurant wholeheartedly. Great dining experience.

30/03/2026: I went to Osteria della Purtascia with my friends on Sunday for lunch. If you're looking for a place where you can feel at home, but with high-quality cuisine, this is the place. The restaurant is beautiful and very well-kept, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. It's the perfect setting for a lunch/dinner with friends, where you can chat and enjoy yourself. The hospitality was the added bonus. All the staff is extremely kind, but a special mention goes to the waitress, Luana, who was truly exquisite. We really appreciated the way the owner explains the products on the menu: he does it with such a fascinating passion that it makes you want to try everything! ​The food is truly delicious. Here are some dishes we tried: Appetizer: The egg with truffle was simply delicious, balanced, and fragrant. ​First course: We chose a special of the day, paccheri with sausage, porcini mushrooms, saffron, and a sprinkling of red berries. A refined, original, and decidedly tasty dish. ​Wine: The house wine also proved to be an excellent choice, perfect for accompanying dinner. ​In summary: An excellent experience in every way. We'll definitely be back!
