Trattoria Carlito's In Cucciago

I must say that any comment here is superfluous. Alex is always impeccable as a host, cook, and guide. My caxouela was sublime... equal to the ancient tradition... even those who haven't made this choice have nothing but excellent comments!

On Saturday, I had lunch at this trattoria for the first time. Everyone enjoyed the delicious food, beautifully served, especially the cazzuola, which was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this trattoria.

When the Menu Takes Center Stage I've been involved in the wedding world for years: I work with banquet catering for large events, I've worked for two well-established wedding planners in my region, and an event planner. Despite my professional involvement, nothing compares to the thrill of experiencing it firsthand: it's my brother's wedding, it's a unique event that can't be repeated. I want everything to be perfect for this special day. And that's where Carlito's comes in: a rustic trattoria that feels like home. Alex is friendly and helpful; he describes the menu and lets the words describe the dishes, immediately giving tangible taste sensations. On the day of the reception, I arrive early to set up. I meet the mother, friendly and helpful; together, we shape the room, mindful of the limited time. After the ceremony, the welcome remains familiar and sincere. And here comes the star: the menu. What is narrated becomes real flavor. Appetizers of cured meats and cheeses, torta fritta (fried gnocchi), and a giardiniera prepared by Alex were remarkable. First courses: Tortelli di Ricotta ed Erbetta, a thin pasta dish with a bold flavor; seconds are almost obligatory, with the sauce mopped up and mopped up. Next up is Risotto al Gotturno with Parmesan Fondue—you have to visit Alex to try it; there are no words to describe it. For the main course, a Veal Reale with a side of baked potatoes, which melts in your mouth. Fruit and desserts, including sbrisolona and cantucci, round off a memorable food and wine journey. Carlito's also offers rooms: I recommend taking advantage of them, because this gastronomic journey can only be accompanied by the excellent still and sparkling wines from the well-stocked cellar. At Alex's suggestion, we dined with an excellent Vigna Fracia Valtellina Superiore DOC Valgella, 2019 vintage. Finally, a special thanks to the very sweet and attentive Camilla, who looked after us so attentively, never letting our glasses go empty.

A surprising encounter in a small village gem: we stumbled upon this little trattoria with authentic flavors, and it was definitely a fantastic discovery! The friendly and knowledgeable owner graciously entertained us, taking us on a journey through authentic, home-cooked flavors: fantastic torta fritta and Piacenza cured meats, amazing homemade tagliatelle with ragù, sublime herb ravioli. And one of the best tiramisu we've ever had! We truly enjoyed our meal and left feeling a little happier. Thank you! Definitely recommended! Maybe make a reservation, as seats are limited and go quickly! 😆

We had dinner at this small restaurant and had a great time. The dishes are well-prepared, with quality ingredients. I recommend booking, especially on weekends. The staff is very friendly.

The wait staff are attentive and friendly, yet not intimidating. You can tell they're passionate about their work. They're very friendly, and we felt right at home. The cuisine is top-notch, with traditional local dishes crafted by a dedicated and knowledgeable chef, and the prices are fair. Highly recommended!

Very welcoming, I recommend it, delicious meal 🍴😋

A truly wonderful experience! The owner is very kind! He helped us a lot with our excursions to Como and Milan. The bedding and breakfast are perfect, and the location is really quiet. The hotel's location is ideal for visiting the lake. We recommend this hotel!

Wonderful experience! A very charming and rustic trattoria. The paintings of various actors really add to the atmosphere, in my opinion. There's a wonderful fireplace in the center of the room, but it's a shame it's used as a "storage rack." The dinner was amazing! The appetizer of torta fritta and cured meats was delicious, and the tagliatelle were absolutely green with a ragù that deserved top marks! And the tiramisu was truly exquisite! Excellent wine selection. The staff were very kind, professional, and knowledgeable. Furthermore, the trattoria is located in a very charming and charming village. A wonderful evening, we will definitely be back.

Excellent cuisine, relaxed and very well-kept atmosphere. Highly recommended.
