I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Lombardia

06/04/2026: We went to Il Pescatore yesterday for Easter, the second time. The menu was excellent, the same as last year. The private dining room was beautiful, overlooking the garden, and the ambiance was modern and colorful. The price on the menu for all guests was a bit tacky, and the service we received, which as regulars we expected to be different, was disappointing. We received a €20 discount on the €3,120 menu.

28/02/2026: A short story, rather than a review, would be more appropriate to fully convey the experience at this restaurant monument. Indeed, we are dealing with one of the few families—not individuals, but families—who have written the rules of this profession. All this allure leads you to approach us with such respect and curiosity, but also with truly high expectations. Let's clear up any doubts right away: the day was stratospheric. From every perspective. The dishes we savored will certainly be remembered forever, but how could we ever forget the precious time spent talking with Antonio Santini, who honored us with several minutes at the table? For those like me and my friend who love restaurants, it's a bit like a football fan juggling with Maradona. Priceless. The conversation about pumpkin tortelli was memorable, when my companion asked for a sweeter version. With great elegance, the owner explained that the customer shouldn't be a guinea pig in an experiment, but rather recounted the historical evolution of the dish in his family. Then came the masterstroke: from the kitchen came a historic tomato variation, served alongside a classic tortello. The dish was offered. Moving. The service was superb, among the best I've ever seen. The entire staff was commendable, and sommelier Alberto Santin was excellent, recommending a Barbaresco Martinenga 2020 from Marchesi di Grésy, versatile and perfect for the entire meal. I started with the Petit Gris Chiocciole della Pianura with a herb and sweet garlic sauce: elegance, balance, and an irresistible light gratin. Then came the traditional Pumpkin Tortelli with Butter and Parmigiano Reggiano, with amaretti biscuits and mustard. Here, the aim is not to tone down the contrasts, but to enhance them: sweet, savory, and spicy coexist in perfect harmony. Only for the best. For my second course, I chose grilled eel with radicchio from the garden: a dish that speaks to the family's history. The owner summed it up perfectly with one word: ESSENTIALITY. The noble fat of the fish was the star, balanced by the sweet and sour radicchio. Exciting. I finished with the saddle of venison with Cabernet and blueberries, incredibly tender, accompanied by excellent vegetables, especially baby carrots. The final small pastry was followed by a Marsala zabaglione, offered by the owner. We concluded with a 2020 Beerenauslese Cuvée from Kracher, made from botrytized grapes. Thus ended our wonderful experience at Santini's Dal Pescatore. A day that will remain etched in our memories.

30/03/2026: A truly positive experience! I booked lunch at the Locanda to celebrate my mother's birthday. The dining room we ate in is beautiful, and the food was excellent. The atmosphere is very friendly, and both owners are incredibly kind. We even talked about punk rock music... what more could you ask for? :) I'd love to come back to sleep there and enjoy breakfast in that beautiful location!

25/03/2026: We went to this lovely place for lunch on Sunday. The food was excellent, made with top-quality ingredients. The dishes, both in their presentation and taste, convey a sense of lovingly prepared cuisine. The dining room is very welcoming, with beautiful books on display. We hope to return again sometime in the future.

17/04/2026: As always, a journey into tradition combined with a search for top-quality products... each dish presented meticulously like a poem personally by chef Cerveni, pride of Brescia... THANK YOU, ITALIAN pride

05/04/2026: Amazing food, impeccable service, elegant atmosphere. Everything was perfect.

12/04/2026: The place is slightly hidden behind staircase leading into it with a beautiful view onto the lake. We had the pleasure to meet the owner and other costumers and have light conversations alongside a variety of cheeses and meats provided to us which I recommend requesting honey and jam as well as olives to accompany your tastings. Time flew by when enjoying good food and company. If wanting to visit the area i highly this experience.

02/04/2026: Excellent service, lovely owner who gave us a great selection of wines. The ice creams were amazing as well.

27/04/2026: The owners are incredibly lovely and genuine. The food is fantastic. Unfortunately, the owners don't speak English, but they make up for it with charm, gestures, and a few words.

26/04/2026: This is a very local little shop. While we waited for our food, the old man prepared some appetizers, which looked simple but were incredibly delicious. The main dishes were really great value for money. When we left, the old man also kindly offered us chocolate. Most importantly, the prices were incredibly reasonable. I will definitely visit again if I have the chance to come to Milan.

03/05/2026: An ice cream orgasm par excellence… such delicious ice cream… and then there's the view… This ice cream parlor really deserves 10 stars…

20/03/2026: Tried for lunch, discovered by chance thanks to the positive reviews, which I can confirm. This place is one of those few restaurants that still feel human, where you're immediately welcomed with kindness and calm, and time slows down. It's small, and the decor is pleasant and elegant. I tried the lunch menu, which, at the right price, allows you to sample excellent dishes at a reasonable price. Everything was delicious, perfectly cooked and carefully arranged. Marked among my favorites

08/05/2026: A restaurant with a capital R. Beautiful location: the atmosphere, with its soft lighting and candles, is truly intimate and pleasant. The cuisine is excellent: the quality of the fish is top-notch. The wine list is also well-stocked. The staff is also super professional.

08/05/2026: Despite the high ratings, the entire restaurant experience exceeded expectations! Exceptional food, service, and ambiance bolstered by the live piano, lit candle on the torchiere, and stylish dinnerware.

04/05/2026: Excellent, high-quality restaurant. The dishes taste great and everything is delicious (though the portions are quite heavy 😅). The appetizers were exquisite, and the pizzoccheri were amazing. The scallops and porcini mushrooms were very fresh. Overall, fantastic!

01/05/2026: A pleasant discovery here in Valtellina. The atmosphere is period, well-maintained, and very welcoming. The service is friendly. The traditional cuisine is well-prepared, with tasty dishes that are truly well-prepared. Nothing to complain about. I'd gladly return.

05/05/2026: Probably the best ciabattas and focaccias we have ever eaten! The meat was freshly cut and they did not skimp on any kind of topping. We were there 3x during our 5 day trip!

04/05/2026: i lost my mind when they handed me this enormous meat-laden sandwich. and for €6????? if you’re looking for the perfect lunch spot at a hidden gem in como this is it.
