Trattoria Lo Spuntino In

We dined inside, but there are tables overlooking the lake. A simple restaurant, with traditional cuisine made with love. Giovanni and his son Francesco welcome you with a sincere Roman touch. I had an amazing carbonara. No photos, the dish vanished. Best to book. Parking nearby.

This historic restaurant nestled among the buildings of Castel Gandolfo offers limited seating, so I highly recommend making a reservation. There are 5-6 tables inside and a few outside, a good choice on warm evenings. The menu is varied and includes various appetizers (including the ever-present porchetta) and delicious first courses. I haven't tried any second courses yet, although they look very inviting. Among the first courses, the pappardelle with wild boar sauce is definitely worth trying, with its unique flavor. The portions are decidedly generous, both compared to the average and the price (€14). The cannelloni are another truly delicious dish, with a strong flavor from the bay leaves and the savory meat. The price is definitely reasonable (€12) and good value. The cover charge is €2.50, but you can enjoy endless amounts of delicious, crusty bread, so it's worth it.

Excellent food, good portions, beautiful location overlooking the lake. Friendly staff, average prices. I recommend it!

An absolutely incredible culinary experience, Francesco's unparalleled friendliness and courtesy. You can't miss trying Giovanni's wonderful dishes, prepared with the highest quality ingredients, while admiring Lake Castel Gandolfo, with tables right on the lookout! I hope to return soon to enjoy everything! I've never eaten so well; if you're passing through, Spuntino is a must, believe me.

Breathtaking view, excellent service, fast, kind and knowledgeable staff, excellent value for money

Visiting Castel Gandolfo, we're tempted to stay for dinner to enjoy the cool evening breeze... we ask if there's room and are shown to one of the tables overlooking the lake below. The straccetti with arugula and parmesan are truly delicious, the service is quick and friendly. The location is beautiful, prices are average, recommended!

Super nice view and very tasty pasta!

A classic restaurant with freshly prepared food and unique flavors. The best meal of my entire trip. I highly recommend the pollo cazzadora. I'll definitely be back every chance I get. Greetings from Mexico. 🇲🇽

locale non grande però dotato di posti sia interni che esterni. il menù è classico romano con i piatti loro più famosi. non manca l'ottima porchetta di Ariccia. piatti con tanta quantità da tenere presente durante l'ordinazione. un consiglio: evitate il vino della casa.

Attratti dalle buone recensioni decidiamo di fermarci in questa osteria a due passi dal belvedere di Castelgandolfo. Accoglienza cortese, servizio veloce, buoni i primi proposti - cannelloni al forno e ravioloni caserecci-, ottimi gli straccetti. Eravamo nei tavoli all'esterno e grazie al tempo gradevole ci siamo goduti un piacevole pranzo
