Rifugio Genziana In Omegna

Good food and very nice and friendly waitress

A Sunday family lunch, the room is welcoming, with an excellent view of the Italian-Swiss Alps, a quiet atmosphere, and the appetizer for two is plentiful (we ate it for 5). The tagliatelle with venison ragù was special, the legume soup with croutons and lard was also perfect. Finally, the apple pie was also very good, a giant portion for those with a sweet tooth🎯

We had lunch here during a day on the snow at Mottarone. Excellent service, very friendly staff, delicious food. Breathtaking view 🫶🏻 I recommend booking in advance; if you do, you can park your car inside near the refuge.

Excellent food, excellent service and a very nice place to escape from the daily routine of the city.

The Genziana refuge and restaurant is one of those places that welcomes you with simplicity and warmth, making you immediately feel right at home. After a hike through the woods and trails, arriving here is like coming home: the mountain air whets your appetite, the aroma of hot dishes invites you to sit down, and time seems to slow down. The cuisine is authentic, rooted in tradition and the local area. The polenta with tomino is a dish that speaks volumes: soft and enveloping polenta, accompanied by fresh, local tomino, with a delicate yet bold flavor that enhances every bite without overpowering it. A genuine comfort food that warms and satisfies. The legume and grain soup with lard is surprising in its simplicity: rich, fragrant, and nourishing, with the lard slowly melting, lending depth and character to a rustic and sincere dish. The fresh, local cheeses speak to the work and passion of those who live the mountains every day. You can sense the conscious choice of raw materials, without artifice or excess, but with great respect for authentic flavors. The atmosphere is informal and welcoming, made of wood, soft voices, and spontaneous smiles. The Genziana refuge is more than just a restaurant: it's an authentic mountain experience, where food becomes a story, a refreshment, and a memory, leaving you wanting to return, perhaps after another hike, to rediscover the same flavors and atmosphere. The service is truly impeccable.

Restaurant (refuge) on the summit of Mottarone, well-cooked dishes, good portions. Prices are in line with most items, a little higher for dessert and house wine. The rest, from cover charge to starters and main courses, is the same as at most restaurants on Sunday lunchtime or in the evening. The polenta and hot soup are good. The staff and owner are very friendly. 2 polentas, 1 soup, 1 dessert, 1 water, 2 covers, 1 coffee, cost €52. If you find yourself here, try the nice hot polenta. Reservations are recommended on holidays, but they'll definitely find a spot.

Went there for NYE, splendid experience!! Not many tables felt exclusive, unbelievable value for money. Gorgeous food and wine, super super friendly staff. I want to come all the time!! Thank you for having us!! With live music!!

I went to Genziana for lunch and had a truly wonderful time. The portions are generous and the dishes are carefully prepared. The tagliatelle with venison is excellent, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned. The ravioli del plin with roast gravy are also very good, tasty, and well-balanced. Recommended for those seeking quality and authentic cuisine.

When you want to take a trip to Mottarone, stopping is a must.
