I migliori ristoranti in Varese

05/10/2025: Let me start by saying that La Locanda Garibaldi isn't a restaurant for everyone, as demonstrated by the limited seating available: a deliberate choice, designed to offer genuine attention and care to each guest. It's not the place for those looking for a quick meal or standardized dishes. Here, dinner is an experience, a journey back in time where food is the star, but not the only memory you'll take home. As soon as you enter, you feel like you've walked through a magical door: an old gramophone, an old-fashioned telephone, two pianos, a large fireplace. The atmosphere is warm and authentic, with music that transports you back in time. We're asked to remove our jackets, like at a friend's house. The table setting is meticulously designed and elegant, and the cleanliness is impeccable. Giuseppe, the owner, is an integral part of the experience. From the first phone call, he asks the names of the guests and, without revealing too much, prepares a little surprise. He has a welcoming attitude that makes you feel important: he talks to you, listens, and sits down for a moment, like a long-lost friend. He explains the menu with passion and suggests always spot-on wine pairings, without being intrusive but with taste and expertise. We started with the house antipasto, which varies according to the season and the creativity of Mirella, Giuseppe's wife, the queen of the kitchen. A surprising dish: a stuffed olive with truffle breading, an extraordinary eggplant caponata, a cod medallion with polenta, and numerous seasonal delicacies, including pumpkin. Then came the first courses: my daughter chose "La Botticella," a perfect combination of amatriciana and carbonara, while my husband opted for the maltagliati with bacon and pistachio—a true masterpiece. I opted for a main course of goulash and fresh porcini mushrooms: a dish that smelled of home, with that imperfect perfection that only cooking with love can achieve. The finale was incredibly sweet: a handmade artisanal baba that rivaled even the Neapolitan ones; a green apple sorbet, the best my daughter had ever tasted; and an apple pie that to call poetry doesn't do it justice. The bill? Absolutely adequate for the experience. Don't expect a menu with prices clearly displayed or the usual "cheapest dish" approach: here you choose with your heart, follow your inspiration, and let yourself be guided. Every euro spent is repaid with emotion and authenticity. Thank you, Giuseppe and Mirella, for a wonderful evening: not just a restaurant, but a moment of humanity, taste, and old-fashioned warmth. The only flaw: the waitresses, though very kind, are still not fully integrated into the environment... perhaps they should know the dishes better.

17/09/2025: We went to this restaurant with high expectations, but the experience was very unpleasant. From the moment we arrived, the owner sat with us for almost the entire dinner, talking about himself, with a rather arrogant attitude that made it difficult to admit he was bothering us. Furthermore, we weren't shown a clear menu: they essentially "suggested" the dishes, and in the end we paid €130 for two people for an appetizer, a first course, dessert, water, and wine. The food was good, but it didn't justify the price. The worst thing was feeling so uncomfortable, with no freedom to choose or enjoy the dinner in peace. We also noticed that the owner wasn't very kind to the waitress, who, on the other hand, worked well and was always attentive.

16/10/2025: You can sit here very relaxed with a great view of the bay of Maccagno.

11/10/2025: We were passing through and took advantage of the bar for two sandwiches and two draft beers. One sandwich was just salami, the other ham and cheese, two 04 beers, and a bag of coconut snacks: €27.50. The staff was very friendly and helpful, but I found the prices a bit high. I must admit, though, that the view from the bar tables is great.

28/06/2025: (Traducido por Google) Pizza siempre suave (Original) Pizza sempre molle

13/06/2025: Si conferma la qualità di questa catena, servizio veloce, grande varietà sia di pizze salate che dolci. Dato che fa anche asporto, meglio non andare tra le 19:30 e le 20:30 perchè il servizio al tavolo è più rallentato…

29/04/2025: Grande varietà di pizze salate e dolci. C'è l'imbarazzo della scelta e mangi finchè non ce la fai più! Le pizze mi sono piaciute moltissimo, una più buona dell'altra e non restano alte, il che mi ha permesso di non sentirmi subito piena. Ritorneremo sicuramente presto: assolutamente consigliato!!

20/10/2025: The food is good, the place is easy-going, first course, second course, side dish, water, coffee €12, smooth sambuca €4, half bottle of bulk wine €5

10/09/2025: I've been coming to David House for two years now, and I didn't pay much attention to the reviews. But when I see some shady people destroying the work of good people by saying they're closed and giving it one star... I'm sorry, but I'm not having it! This evening, I ate very well, as usual, and I felt compelled to promote this business. So, I give it a 5-star rating.

09/11/2025: The atmosphere is clean, less dramatic than many other similar establishments. Service is fairly quick, and the food is average. Parking is a bit inconvenient. The alternative is a street near the shopping center located in front of the restaurant.

21/10/2025: Simply our favorite Japanese/Chinese restaurant in the area. Excellent quality and fast, impeccable service. They've always been attentive to my allergies, and I've never had any problems. The staff is very friendly, and the owner is charming and cheerful. I've been going to this restaurant for many years, and a winning team never changes.

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