Skip the tourist traps in the square and come around the corner to this small but delicious restaurant. The seafood risotto was amazing, the pasta fresh, and paired with the house wine for only €10 per 1/2 liter and only a €2 cover. The price to value cannot be beat.

Of course, here's the edited and streamlined Google review:

Many places in Como's square look quite stylish and luxurious, but when I noticed their low Google ratings, I started looking for a place with a higher rating. Fostana Ristorante Pizza, right next to the square, stood out with a 4.4 rating despite 1,300 reviews, so I chose it.
Overall, it's an average but enjoyable restaurant. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the fact that they offer small gifts for children was a nice touch. The salad and pasta were delicious and met my expectations.
While the service was a bit slow, the overall experience wasn't negative. It's a good choice for those looking for a budget-friendly option in Como.

Mi familia y yo visitamos este restaurante basándonos en las críticas anteriores aquí en Tripadvisor. Fontana es un restaurante modesto y genuino que sirve cocina italiana casera, ¡y Dios mío, la comida estaba excelente! Probé el vongelle y el entrecot, ambos estaban muy deliciosos. El personal es muy servicial y atento. Mi familia y yo pedimos cinco platos diferentes y todo llegó rápido y estaba muy rico. Nuestra experiencia fue genial e incluso volvimos a cenar el mismo día.
Si quieres disfrutar de excelente comida casera italiana en Como, visita Fontana (y mantente alejado de las otras trampas para turistas con precios excesivos).
