I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Como

13/08/2026: The restaurant is historic, and the wait time is faithful to tradition: an hour and fifteen minutes for the dishes to arrive. Luckily, we didn't feel alone; we made friends with the line of customers waiting right next to our table. A socializing experience I won't soon forget.

31/07/2026: Family owned restaurant Great food. Warm atmosphere

25/07/2026: A wonderful establishment, very friendly people who take their work seriously. Thank you so much for a wonderful dinner and such a wonderful place.

06/06/2026: RetroGusto is a guarantee. Since I discovered it, I've been bringing several people there, and we always leave satisfied. The meat on the salt griddle is always excellent, and a quick chat with the chef shows how much he cares about the quality of the products he offers his customers. The wine selection is also very refined, and it's a pleasure to let the owner's expertise guide you. The atmosphere is quiet and refined. One of my favorite restaurants in the area.

17/08/2026: Amalfi restaurant with welcoming, friendly staff and excellent seafood dishes, highly recommended! The presentation is also very thoughtful, and the prices are excellent for the quality of the ingredients. We recommend expanding the wine list!

30/06/2026: Thanks for the surprise with my daughter Lisa

24/08/2026: Aperitif overlooking the lake, various appetizers, and excellent cuisine...the view is spectacular...a unique place, highly recommended.

16/08/2026: Whether you love the lake or not, this little place is absolutely worth a try. Nestled in a beautiful corner, this shop has a distinct Italian feel despite its international clientele. Quick dishes and good drinks. The shop is worth a visit, and if you spot Luciano sitting in his chair, the atmosphere is complete. Beautiful.

09/06/2026: Wonderful and perfect place to rest and relax in the heart of Lake Como.

08/06/2026: Villa d’Este remains one of the great hotels of Europe, and the level of service is as polished and professional as ever. The gardens are immaculate, the setting on Lake Como is timeless, and the staff continue to deliver the kind of hospitality that made the property legendary. What has changed, at least from my perspective, is the atmosphere. I cannot help feeling that the experience is slowly drifting away from quiet, understated luxury and moving a little closer to a stage performance. There is more spectacle, more social media energy, and at times it feels as though some guests are visiting to be seen rather than simply to enjoy one of the world’s great hotels. Nothing about the quality has diminished. If anything, Villa d’Este still executes at an extraordinarily high level. I simply miss the slightly more discreet and effortless elegance that once defined the place for me. Perhaps this is the natural evolution of luxury hospitality in the age of Instagram. But for those who appreciate slow luxury, privacy, and the feeling that true refinement never needs to announce itself, there may be a quiet sense of nostalgia.

20/08/2026: Excellent restaurant, friendly and welcoming service, large internal parking also for vans

20/08/2026: High-quality food, extremely friendly staff, and a truly beautiful location. 100 points for the risotto with ossobuco!

23/07/2026: Amazing experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly friendly, the service was excellent, and we got a table with a beautiful view. I had the ravioli and the tiramisu, and both were absolutely delicious. The tiramisu was one of the best I’ve ever had. Great food, amazing atmosphere, and fantastic service. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

07/06/2026: A first-class dining experience with a breathtaking view – an absolute hotspot! If you're looking for truly excellent, upscale dining on Lake Como – especially with a lavish multi-course menu – La Darsena is the perfect choice. Culinary Delights, Wine & Cocktails The food is simply fantastic and of the highest caliber. Each menu is a work of art in itself, perfectly balanced and bursting with flavor. The selection of excellent wines is equally impressive. A particular highlight for us were the superb cocktails, which you absolutely shouldn't miss before or after your meal. Ambiance & View The restaurant's atmosphere is elegant and sophisticated, yet wonderfully tranquil. The magnificent view completes the experience, making dinner an unforgettable event. A true feast for all the senses! Service The service is absolutely top-notch. The entire team is extremely attentive and professional. What truly stands out is the precise and flexible way in which individual requests are accommodated – as a guest, you feel completely valued and exceptionally well cared for. Conclusion & Tip Due to the high quality and popularity of the restaurant, advance reservations are absolutely essential. Anyone looking for a special evening with outstanding food in an elegant setting will certainly not be disappointed. Highly recommended!

01/07/2026: Good selection of craft beers, both on tap and in the fridge. Both Italian and locally sourced, all made in-house (beers, kefir, and digestifs...must try!)... The food...well, the cafoncini are unique here, you're sure to find a flavor you like!! The place is beautiful: refined in its writing, memorabilia, and board games.

11/06/2026: Fried pizza is good. Lasagna and tiramisu is mid. The waiter wasn’t very welcoming. We kindly asked for a recommendation and he simply replied ‘Just look at the menu’ and didn’t seem very happy that we’ve asked for the recommendation. We also waited to order over half an hour, whereas other tables that came after us got to order first. So I didn’t have the best experience there.

02/08/2026: Just outside Como. So it's best to go there from the center by car or taxi/Uber. But definitely worth it. Very beautiful terrace. Quiet location. The waiter did an excellent job. Attentive, willing to help, and friendly. The food was delicious. I would recommend this with my eyes closed.

01/08/2026: Extremely attentive, helpful, and knowledgeable staff. Varied cuisine with a wide range of options: pizza, traditional first courses, meat or fish main courses, many desserts, and an excellent wine list!

16/08/2026: Delicious dishes, impeccable service, wonderful staff. Everyone was very kind.

12/08/2026: Excellent place. Very good food, quick service. Not cheap, but reasonable. Great view, convinient parking, friendly staff

18/08/2026: Everything we had was super delicious! Nice atmosphere with a lake view, friendly people, fast service! Highly recommended place!!!

17/08/2026: Went for a meal tonight with my wife and son at this beautiful family run restaurant. A very elegant and relaxing location not far from the lake, with exceptional , attentive service. The food and wine were wonderful. The mixed fish starter and the mussels were a tasty and generous introduction to our meal. The lobster pasta was superb and so was the pistachio cream and prawn pasta. Extremely tasty and rich! Great desserts too. Highly recommend. By far, one of the most pleasant restaurants I’ve eaten at on lake Como.

05/05/2026: We went to Mercato 38 and had a really good time. We loved the place and enjoyed the food from start to finish. We started with a platter to share: perhaps not the most generous, but still the right size for a shared appetizer. Then we had pizzoccheri and tagliolini with lamb ragù, both truly delicious. The pizzoccheri in particular impressed us the most: flavorful, well-made, and truly enjoyable to eat. For dessert, we chose an apple tarte tatin with a scoop of ice cream, which was delicious and beautifully presented. While we enjoyed it, the savory dishes were undoubtedly our favorite. Overall, it was a very positive experience and we'll gladly return.

26/04/2026: What a wonderful place! They honor the recipes of their grandmother and ancestors! Friendly service, and delicious food!

20/08/2026: The ravioli is the best in the world

10/08/2026: Absolutely outstanding. There were four of us and all of our dishes, meat and fish, were perfection. We loved the lemon ravioli and prawns and octopus appetizers. We had a desert sampling and wine that rounded up the meal deliciously. The setting, of course, is beautiful, but you’ll be mostly blown away by the care going into service and food quality.

26/07/2026: One of the best pizzas we’ve had, 3 adults and 1 child and we were seated and served quickly - pizza was excellent! Definitely worth a visit when in Cernobbio

25/07/2026: Delicious pizza and friendly service, excellent value for money.

31/07/2026: We ate here last night for my birthday. We enjoyed it so much. This is true Italian authenticity. Food as food is meant to be. This lady is hostess, cook, and waitress all in one. Highly recommended!!!!!! 🩷

21/07/2026: We had a delicious meal, highly recommended! We only had the main course and dessert, and it was all fine!
