Trattoria del Porto In Nesso

Positive experience, typical local things

We had a wonderful evening yesterday at the Trattoria del Porto. We were served excellent local dishes and were given a wealth of information about the place and the food. Everything was perfect. The owners prepared a wonderful evening for us. If we didn't have to leave again, I would reserve a table for us again immediately!

An amazing experience. A combination of amazing local dishes, wines and a lakeview setup create an unforgettable dinner.

A remarkable experience at this trattoria, discovered by chance, where I will definitely return. The fixed-price menu offers a range of typical lake dishes, starting with the exquisite appetizer of chub pâté and carpione-marinated missoltino, continuing with the intensely flavored shad with grilled polenta, and culminating with the delicate perch with rice sautéed in butter and sage. I couldn't miss the local cheese tasting, and I found the artisanal crème caramel impeccable, with the egg flavoring recognizable. Including water and a good dry white wine, as well as coffee and a light limoncello, we spent less than €50 each. The experience is crowned by professional, welcoming yet unobtrusive service. The secret is revealed when you visit the dining room, where you discover that the owner has over 50 years of experience, many of which spent in the finest hotels throughout Europe. The restaurant is located just steps from the pier and also offers a splendid lakeside garden. Perfect for those arriving by boat, it requires a bit of exercise if you're arriving by car, though private parking is available. Not to be missed

A great experience, a magical little place from another era where you can sample traditional lakeside cuisine. If you arrive on foot, you'll have to climb a few stone steps through a small village to the lake. The staff were truly friendly and attentive.

Magnificent! An incredible, very warm welcome. We were looking for a restaurant with local specialties, and we were served. Each dish was explained to us, along with its story. Thank you so much!

Beautiful lakeside location. The view is stunning, and the cuisine is meticulously prepared (a set menu, with lake fish as the main focus). The prices are fair for the quality, and the service is attentive. You can park your car in a small private parking lot, or access it from the lake.

Such an amazing place to relax with a beautiful view of Lake Como. We started with two fish-based appetizers paired with white wine, followed by a delicious main course, cheese, dessert, and a local wine. I especially loved the main course, fried fish with risotto which was absolutely delicious!

Storica trattoria gestita da decenni dalla famiglia Zambra. Menù fisso con ottimi piatti della tradizione locale. Possibilità, a fine pranzo, di sostare o fare una partita a bocce in un piccolo giardino a bordo lago. Consiglio di arrivare in battello se si vuole evitare la passeggiata in discesa all'andata e in risalita al ritorno. Comunque sicuramente ne vale la pena.

Un piccolo gioiello nascosto in cui è possibile assaggiare la vera cucina del Lago di Como. Dalla terrazza si gode di una vista mozzafiato, ma ciò che più ci ha colpiti è la passione sincera che il personale profonde nel proprio lavoro. Assolutamente consigliato, ci siamo sentiti accolti e coccolati come a casa.
