28/07/2025: Somewhat mixed experiences, best divided into two groups:
What I liked ✅
- The view, pleasant over the lake, especially from outside on the terrace.
- The aperitif, meaning that if you order a drink, they bring you appetizers, which are definitely a lot for one person.
- The prices, I thought they would cost me dearly, but if you choose the right things, you don't have to spend much (in fact, I avoided the spritz, which at 7 euros wouldn't even be brought to me on a gondola).
What I didn't like ❌
- The service, a 20-minute wait for two bar items (beer and a sandwich) in a not-so-crowded room seems really excessive; plus, they didn't clean our table once we were seated, so we had to do it ourselves.
- The prices aren't very clear, meaning it's unclear whether table service has an extra charge. I actually paid 5 euros for a beer instead of 3.50, but they included appetizers (which I didn't order), so I'd say it's good value. But if I ask for something and want more, let me know and I'll give you an answer.
- Paying at the table once served may have been a problem, but I find it a tasteless solution.
I don't think I'd go back, perhaps for the beautiful view or to grab a quick bite, but it must be said that there are better places nearby. If I ever visit again, I hope they fix the issues I mentioned, and I'll happily update the review.
08/07/2025: The establishment is spotless, and Edoardo, the lifeguard, is always attentive to every guest's needs.
The kiosk stocks excellent porchetta every day.
