Trattoria Rassica In Lonato del garda

A pleasant surprise: tasty dishes, traditional setting, friendly staff.

A very quiet place, lots of courtesy and the food, snail menu, all delicious! Thank you

To celebrate 55 years of friendship, Angelo and I chose Rassica for its "all snails" menu which is practically unique. I had been there in 72 or 73, that is, more than 50 years ago, then it was in the open countryside, today it isn't but the atmosphere of a well-kept trattoria is the same. What can I say, 5 starters, a first course and two second courses and, even if the portions don't seem large, in reality it's hard to get to the end. An excellent Lugana (Ca dei Frati), Natural snails with oil and herbs, (tasty) snail and onion omelette, snail skewers with mushrooms, Bourghinon style snails, snails with bacon, green risotto with snails and herbs, snails with spinach and snails in red sauce with chilli pepper, cream Catalan coffee and snail repellent for which I (rightly) don't have the recipe. It's not very cheap but the price is absolutely adequate and where can you find an all-snail menu? The grandmother (95 years old) came to say goodbye to us before going to bed, and the restaurateur (I think Gianfranco) and his wife Monica were exquisite people! We will return perhaps without another 50 years passing by.

Great food, exceptional snails!!!! courtesy and professionalism. Highly recommended!!!

I went on Saturday with friends who know the place, I had never been there. The snail menu was excellent... (my preference goes to snails bourguignonne, skewers with crispy bacon and risotto)... however I also enjoyed all the other courses. My partner who doesn't eat snails ordered, upon telephone reservation, a Florentine. He was served a wonderful Florentine steak weighing 1kg and a half. Excellent flavor and cooking too. Really compliments...The sbrisolona with grappa was also very good. Excellent welcome and service. I highly recommend it.
