Ristotrattoria La Monella In Montalto dora

Informal restaurant overlooking the waters of Lake Pistono and in front of the Montalto Dora castle. Really nice location. Discovered by chance after a pleasant walk on the circular route of the Sirio and Pistono lakes. We were lucky to come across this restaurant because it is really very difficult to eat particular vegetarian/vegan dishes in the area. At most we are offered pasta with tomato sauce or salad. Food that we can also prepare at home. At La Monella, however, we were able to enjoy a fabulous artichoke risotto and some delicious and original desserts. The staff is also very kind and the prices are normal. Too bad the annoying background noise caused by a slightly too exuberant group. However, highly recommended!

Lunch with friends on New Year's Eve, with a visit to the lake where this restaurant is located. Good food, family atmosphere, service is fast but accurate. Management of young, well-mannered kids, which isn't a bad thing. The eggnog..... AMAZING I will definitely go back

A beautiful environment with a beautiful location overlooking the lake, nice also the background music of the restaurant very good beer both the red and the blonde very pleasant staff friendly and also generous for two beers they brought us a nice packet of peanuts to peel

Excellent lunch in a very particular and well-kept location, with a wonderful lake view. Raw materials researched and worked excellently. Informal and welcoming environment, with the possibility of dining both indoors and outdoors. Highly recommended

I've been there several times for aperitifs, all excellent

Various dishes of the day are very good with vegetarian options. Even the top desserts! Spectacular view and helpful and kind staff.

Stunning place, between panorama and hospitality. Very good dishes and wine. To spend a beautiful day in nature and relaxation.

Just today I ended up at the LA MONELLA restaurant going, actually, in search of the Terre Ballerine and, given the time, we stopped for lunch. The food is good and the raw materials are of quality. The only flaw: the bread was too salty, so much so that in the afternoon I had to drink a lot. The staff is efficient but friendly, kind and helpful, so much so that we finally reached LE terre ballerinas thanks to the managers' instructions. The exterior is well organized with the aim of enhancing the view of Lake Pistono. I invite those who are not as far away as myself to book for a dinner because that place certainly offers an uncommon atmosphere in the evening.

Nice place on Lake Pistono, with a wonderful view, especially for those sitting outdoors. Perfect for beautiful days, very relaxing atmosphere. The menu is quite simple, the food ok. We ordered a starter of mixed cured meats and cheeses, polenta with tome and polenta and stew. Not very fast service, but friendly staff. Average prices. Great place for lunch with friends or family.

Beautiful idea. A refreshment point after walking for hours on the lake... it's brilliant. Anyone can rest by having a snack with a STUPID view!! Absolutely worth visiting
