I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterraneanella città Stresa della Verbano-cusio-ossola

05/06/2026: For my son's birthday, we had dinner at this lovely restaurant in the center of Stresa. We ate truly deliciously: the spaghetti with octopus was flavorful, fragrant, and beautiful to look at; the veal with tuna sauce, asparagus, and savory zabaglione was a feast for the eyes and the palate. The place is very charming, the service attentive but not intrusive, and the owner was present and extremely kind. We had a truly wonderful time, and I thank Raffaele for his hospitality.

03/06/2026: Terrible experience, extremely expensive for what's on the plate. €8 for a plate of frozen fries and €10 for a sliced ​​tomato with red onions—that's outrageous! The service could be much better! Only the sommelier was friendly on the team who served us. They were completely unhelpful when it came time to pay part of the bill in cash for two couples… In short, avoid this place…

21/06/2026: More than decent takeaway kebab pizzeria.

16/06/2026: Decent pizza, good prices. Friendly staff.

26/04/2026: Good value for money in this area; it's hard to find anything cheaper in this location. The property is a bit dated, but the room was very clean and well-maintained. The breakfast is plentiful. The only downsides are the almost non-existent soundproofing (you can easily hear the neighbors) and the rather firm bed, which might not suit everyone.

09/03/2026: We stayed for one night. That's fine. The hotel is located right in the middle of the small town, very close to the lake. That's perfect. The hotel is a bit dated, but the service is extremely friendly. Breakfast consists of cake. If you ask nicely, they'll also give you bread. The coffee is excellent. There's no elevator, so it's difficult for older people.

18/05/2026: We had a great time, Cinzia and Debora know how to do their job

17/05/2026: 45 minutes for a mediocre pizza… a very average spritz that didn’t even make up for the long wait… waitresses who were more than overwhelmed… truly an unpleasant experience.

01/06/2026: The name is spot on, the portions are generous, and the place is beautiful. As soon as we arrived, they asked us if we wanted to eat inside or outside. We decided outside because it was a lovely, warm evening with a breeze. Within a minute, our food was ready, so it was perfect. Everything was delicious! I certainly wasn't expecting a wedding tablecloth, and Al Rustico lived up to all my expectations! Recommended if you want good food in a family atmosphere.

24/05/2026: A wonderfully authentic restaurant, very good food and wines, and warm, welcoming owners. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed a special moment.

17/05/2026: A birthday party with four friends. The appetizers weren't served at the same time as the main courses... and on top of that, they were cold. Unacceptable for an establishment that tries to project a certain image of quality.

15/05/2026: Avoid if you want to eat well. Very bad.

02/07/2026: Terrible customer service from the entire staff, we left disgusted. We sat down intending to order drinks, and the waiter brought us water without us asking for it. When we ordered our drinks, he began yelling at us, saying that this was a restaurant, not a bar, and that we were not allowed to order drinks only. We were genuinely shocked by the way we were spoken to, so we calmly said, “No worries, we’ll leave,” and got up to go. As we walked away, another waiter ran after us down the street, shouting that we had to pay for the water—even though we had never ordered it or even taken a sip. It was an incredibly unpleasant and unprofessional experience. There are plenty of much better places in Stresa where customers are treated with respect. I would not recommend this restaurant.

02/07/2026: We came across this restaurant because it offered a gluten-free alternative, and we ended up ordering a salad in addition to our meal, without being clearly informed that it was an extra charge. The price was exorbitant considering the quality of our dishes. For an Italian restaurant, the pasta sauce came straight from a store; one has the right to question the origin of the pizza dough… We strongly advise against it.

03/06/2026: Among the plethora of restaurants on the island, one stands out for its tranquility, service, and quality food. It's located on the opposite shore from the docks where the boats dock. You'll find an orderly atmosphere with a spectacular view of the lake. The staff is attentive and meticulous. A special mention goes to Cinzia, who quickly arranged for me to have a table even though I didn't have a reservation. Highly recommended!

27/05/2026: Unfortunately, it ended up being very expensive with cover charge and surcharge; the food was rather quick and not particularly tasty.
