I have tried lots of Gelateria around Como and this is the best by far. My favorites are Carmella, cafe, Chocolate and many more. Ciccio Bello Caramello! 🤩
It is true that the place has remained in the 70s as far as furnishings are concerned, but I found it very Sicilian, it reminded me of the little restaurant where Inspector Montalbano likes to go.
The menu is described verbally, but you have to trust and choose, everything is well cooked.
Then there is a fridge with a display case with very inviting and good side dishes on display.
We ate really well. We arrived to eat a pizza and ended up eating excellent fish as a first course and excellent pasta with fish as a second course. Everything was really great!!
19/08/2025: The fish dishes we chose were truly cooked to perfection.
The staff was courteous and professional.
The atmosphere was retro but tasteful.
The prices were fair.
We enjoyed it so much that we returned the next evening. This time we chose pizza for dinner.
Delicious pizza. Light dough. Cooked in a wood-fired oven.
When we return to Como, we will definitely visit Il Carrettiere again. Bravo!
16/08/2025: Traditional and friendly atmosphere.
Air-conditioned.
I've been coming here for 25 years and have always left satisfied (and that's saying something).
