03/12/2025: Delicious food, superb pizza, excellent service with attentive and caring staff. Prices are absolutely reasonable and justified. Congratulations.

22/11/2025: The kindness was excellent and the dishes served were excellent and tasty. We will definitely be back.

29/12/2025: We had dinner there. The place was cozy and the food was excellent. The owners were very kind. We'll definitely be back.

23/12/2025: Excellent quality food. Federico and his team were very helpful and friendly in organizing an important dinner; everything We owned the place.

15/12/2025: Lovely place, and the owners were very accommodating, even without a reservation, on a Saturday night. Unparalleled pizza with excellent ingredients.

02/11/2025: Excellent pizza at La Riva with a great view across lake Maggiore. Staff were really helpful, even though we had made a booking by telephone they couldn’t find the booking when we arrived, but we were accommodated without any fuss. Very friendly and fast service.

10/11/2025: At the OK Bar in Castelletto Ticino, you can find excellent breakfasts in the morning, delicious coffee, and a nice roaster that also sells excellent coffee. The cakes are also very good. Lake Maggiore is just a few steps away.

24/10/2025: At Ok Bar, you truly feel at home. A refined and welcoming establishment, run by extraordinary people who combine professionalism and warmth. You don't come here just for a coffee—which, incidentally, is excellent and hand-roasted on-site—but to indulge in a moment of true relaxation. It's the ideal place for a leisurely break, a chat with friends, and that pleasant sense of familiarity that only Ok can offer.

01/01/2026: A one-of-a-kind trattoria. There aren't many like it anymore. Homemade food, generous portions. Excellent value. For us fishermen, it's the only choice when we pass through Novara. Well done, well done!

25/12/2025: Excellent value for money. Well done!!!

20/01/2026: Excellent restaurant with a balanced menu of delicious yet simple dishes. Recommended are the tuna millefeuille and the crème cotta with salted caramel.

26/12/2025: Unfortunately, my Christmas lunch was an unpleasant experience. I called to ask if it was possible to have a vegetarian menu, possibly with fish, and the answer was no problem, in fact, I can indulge myself. The price of the menu was €60, drinks not included, and we were told that they would give us a discount... moral of the story: 4 courses that could have passed for vegetarians because they were on the normal menu with vegetables and cheese. I must point out that we, there were 3 of us, were not given the vegetarian menu. Our 3 friends were given the Christmas lunch menu like all the other diners. Instead of the crostini with salmon, we were given a raw artichoke salad, then risotto with pumpkin, which I didn't have because I'm intolerant. I had gnocchi with castelmagno cheese, as a second course, a vegetable burger with cooked vegetables, which I didn't want, and to finish, a slice of artisanal panettone... moral of the story: at the time of payment, €60. per person, when we mentioned the discount, the response was, "Well, it's Christmas!" So if because it's Christmas I have to spend the aforementioned amount to eat next to nothing, I'll go to a place where they have a vegetarian menu with the option of fish and spend €30/35 max...never again."

19/10/2025: We were welcomed, served, and pampered magnificently... The ingredients were of the highest quality, the food was delicious and a little different from the usual, the place was spotless and welcoming, the staff was very knowledgeable and attentive to our needs. We were served by waiter Fabio, who truly took care of us, even moving our table as soon as he could because the door was left open for outside service, allowing some fresh air to flow in near our table. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend it!

18/10/2025: Excellent food and very charming location

15/02/2026: We went there for dinner with friends and family and had a really good time. Spectacular food, excellent service, a family atmosphere, and super friendly and approachable owners. Everything was delicious, but an honorable mention goes to the tiramisu, which was out of this world for me. Highly recommended. Excellent value for money. I can't wait to go back again.

19/12/2025: A welcoming and traditional restaurant in the center of Galliate, serving well-crafted Italian and Piedmontese cuisine using quality ingredients. Many diners appreciate local appetizers, tasty pasta dishes, and Fassona beef, along with a nice selection of wines and a pleasant, family-friendly atmosphere. The staff is friendly and helpful, and the value is good. Service can be a bit slow at times, but the overall experience is positive.

23/01/2026: A shell place. For those in the area, this is a fun place to go. Great and cheap pizzas. A selection of draft beers, which were really good. Fun atmosphere. Big place. Plenty of parking. Open until late. Lots of local people and live music. We really enjoyed it.

11/01/2026: I went yesterday for the first time... overall, the experience wasn't as positive as I expected. I have nothing to say about the live entertainment, which is one of the venue's strong points. I wanted to have dinner to secure a seat, but it was a negative experience, not so much for the food, which is average for a pub, but for the wait after ordering: an hour and a half to receive the dinner, something embarrassing that can't exist these days! All the tables around us had the same wait, so I can't believe it was packed just this evening, because the venue is known in the area for its live entertainment, so I think the food service organization needs a complete overhaul. One more thing... what's the point of having fans blowing cold air on people? ..a piece of advice: create a sort of compass/put a bulkhead to accompany the entrance to the venue, because with the coming and going of people, a polar draft was entering the venue, as evidenced by the many people sitting with their jackets on. And besides, it's a waste of heating that doesn't do its job at all. Next time I'll be "already eaten" and wearing tights underneath...

16/12/2025: Excellent restaurant, the owners are welcoming and friendly!! The food is good and the portions are just right!!

12/12/2025: Good food, good service, very chaotic environment

08/02/2026: It's cramped, you eat less compared to how much you burn. The bathrooms are poorly hygienic, but above all, what's mouthwash, toothpicks, and coffee cups doing in the toilet?

30/01/2026: A restaurant and bar inside the Fasoli Piante nursery, located in front of the internal entrance, with plenty of tables in a large and charming setting, adorned with plants and flowers. The service is fast and friendly, with a nice, comprehensive restaurant menu of appetizers, first courses, second courses, side dishes, and desserts, featuring primarily excellent Fassona beef, both cooked and raw. Prices are moderately high and offer good value. Of course, it also serves as a bar outside of mealtimes, for dinner, and for aperitifs. I recommend it.

01/02/2026: Bagna Cauda Day, a great lunch with friends! Nice restaurant, friendly and helpful staff. I think I'll be back!

25/01/2026: We had lunch at this restaurant for a birthday. The appetizers were exceptional, with a wide variety of Piedmontese specialties. For my main course, I chose the braised cheek, which was truly delicious, and to finish, an excellent chocolate cake.

31/12/2025: Amazing gelato and true ricotta cannolo 🤤 would definitely come back! 😍

14/10/2025: TOP ice cream and fabulous granitas

19/10/2025: Mediocre food, service that would be better without it. The atmosphere? Indoors, with birds eating with you. Unfortunately, being the only restaurant in the area allows them to treat customers however they want. I won't return, nor will I recommend it. Unfortunately, 0 doesn't exist, because otherwise, it would be the rating that best reflects the restaurant.

13/10/2025: I booked at Ristorante San Giulio for my mom's birthday, and I have to say we were thrilled! The menu was excellent, every dish delicious and meticulously crafted; the cake we commissioned was delicious and stunning; our table was on the covered terrace overlooking the lake; and the very kind, attentive, and professional staff made this a truly wonderful experience. Highly recommended! We'll definitely be back!
