I migliori ristoranti in Varese

31/10/2025: I'll be honest. It doesn't serve delicious dishes, but it has that '70s atmosphere, of a bygone proletarian and productive Italy. "Amarcord" atmosphere. The food is fair, with few frills and lots of authenticity. Recommended

22/08/2025: We discovered this place thanks to a recommendation from a friend. It's a welcoming, homey place, with excellent home-cooked food, generous portions, and reasonable prices. What we were most impressed with was the cassouela, which was sensational. The desserts were delicious. We'll definitely be back.

05/10/2025: Excellent croissants, very friendly staff. The pastries are definitely worth trying. A pleasant experience that I highly recommend.

20/09/2025: I've been to this bar and found the croissants frozen and definitely old. In fact, the clerk confirmed that the cappuccinos were not from a pastry shop. I'm from the village but they certainly won't see me again.

27/09/2025: Osteria della Piazza is perfect for those seeking a relaxed lunch in the heart of Arona. The restaurant is welcoming and meticulously maintained, with wooden tables and rustic décor. I tried the lakeside pasta dishes and fresh fish: every bite was an explosion of flavor. I really appreciated the staff's helpfulness in explaining the origins of the dishes and suggesting local wine pairings. All this in a tranquil atmosphere that invites you to linger and enjoy the day.

01/06/2025: Small pub/bar overlooking the town square. A couple of draft beers as an offer, more bottled beers and all the cocktails that can be made with what the pantry has to offer. A couple of small tables inside, several tables outside, with umbrellas and a veranda. Nice and friendly location. Large and close parking, but in competition with the theater. Don't look for parking in the town center, which is a maze of alleys.

05/10/2025: In my opinion (I'm not telling the world because I haven't watched it all yet) but it's the best so far! In terms of quantity, quality, etc. etc.

02/10/2025: We were loyal customers: we went to this gelateria at least once a week, spending an average of €12, because the gelato is decent (though not the best). However, our last experience left us stunned. We asked if we could taste a flavor before buying, but somehow we were denied. Although the gelato is good, the professionalism, friendliness, and empathy (qualities every business should have to offer good service) at this gelateria leave much to be desired. The gentleman at the counter, in our opinion, needs a customer service course.

10/10/2025: Very friendly and helpful staff. Fridays always start off better when I stop by for breakfast! Well done! 😊

31/05/2025: Bar that I have been frequenting for several years now, it has never disappointed expectations, fast and professional service. Good work to Fabio and his staff. 👍

08/11/2025: A very special restaurant in a mountain setting with beautiful scenery. High-quality local cuisine, expertly prepared, and attentive, friendly service. Access by road is tricky due to the narrowness and numerous curves before you reach the restaurant, but it's well worth the effort.

01/09/2025: Honestly, I didn't like it. The written menu is inviting, but what you get at the table is something else entirely. Penne amatriciana/wild boar is nothing more than pasta with tomato sauce and slices of (I don't know) wild boar salami. Purple gnocchi are tasteless. "Local" cold cuts: salami Milano and Bologna (I don't know). Nice waiter. Anyway, I WON'T be back.

30/09/2025: Nice place, good food and kind owner.

26/09/2025: It's the same system as many sushi bars in Italy. At first, the waiter was a bit tense—Turkish or Indian, I don't know, but the cooking and staff are mostly Japanese. Don't overdo it with your choices; we barely made it out 🤪 they keep bringing more and more… by evening, the place gets pretty full.

07/11/2025: Delicious! I ate there this weekend! I recommend it.

31/10/2025: I wouldn't recommend eating here. There are very few customers. We waited two hours and they still hadn't delivered all our dishes. In the end, we didn't get to eat many of the dishes we'd ordered. It was already late. A terrible experience.

25/10/2025: The food is excellent and the prices are reasonable!

21/10/2025: Very good pizza, well-furnished environment, we had a really good time

12/10/2025: We had lunch after a nice walk from Vararo. Excellent welcome. Welcome with hot soup. Special appetizer: panzanella, potatoes, cheeses, savory pie, etc. A good polenta with egg. Excellent tart with cream and fresh blueberries. Fair price/quality ratio. Really worth it.

05/10/2025: Spartan but very welcoming refuge

15/10/2025: A simple café, good pastries, and excellent coffees and cappuccinos, but what makes the difference is the people behind the counter. They're truly kind, friendly, and very polite. I often stop by before school, and they give me the calm I need to start the day off right. Recommended.

25/09/2025: Truly excellent pizza, thin, well cooked, with top-quality ingredients, always punctual at the indicated time.

12/11/2025: Good ice cream very welcoming and beautiful garden

19/10/2025: Very welcoming saleswoman and excellent ice cream ✨
