Trattoria Il Risottino In Mergozzo

06/01/2025: A small restaurant we stopped in the evening and I recommend it... warm place and good food

06/01/2025: 4 of us went for lunch and chose to try the first round. It wasn't the first time we came to eat here and we had never been disappointed, in fact we always had a great time, but this time the positive review was a must. The formula includes the possibility of tasting first courses present in the à la carte menu but also in the chef's advice menu, in a random order chosen on the spot by the chef; this allows you to both try many different flavors and taste foods that perhaps you wouldn't have chosen to completely change your mind about your tastes 😂 The portions are not exaggerated but more than fair and each course was a pleasant surprise. We note the search for local and seasonal raw materials, but also for new and unexpected combinations. We ate: - Ossola gnocchi - ⁠tagliatelle with venison ragout - Pumpkin, rosemary and amaretti risotto - ⁠pappardelle with artichoke sauce - ⁠braised ravioli with boscaiola sauce - ⁠dumplings with local cheese and truffle fondue - ⁠ricotta and spinach daisies with nettle sauce - ⁠legume soup - pumpkin and ricotta daisies with butter, saffron and marjoram - ⁠onion soup - local tripe - lasagna with meat sauce - ⁠carbonara with salmon trout One dish better than the other! And the first round includes lemon sorbet, a necessary and highly appreciated finishing touch. Many compliments to the chef for the idea and the execution, thanks to the dining room staff, made up entirely of young, polite and smiling guys, who welcomed us very well and complied with our every request, and to you who had the patience to read everything, let me recommend this place and I assure you that you will not regret it.
