I migliori ristoranti di cucina pesce in Verbano-cusio-ossola

08/02/2026: I accidentally booked a table at this unfamiliar restaurant, trusting my instincts. I discovered that under the previous owner, the restaurant had a Michelin star. Now run by three young men, it has certainly lost nothing: service, cuisine, presentation, ambiance, and menu are absolutely up to the level of a Michelin star. The prices, however, are not, and are at a normal level. I really appreciated the presentation and description of the dishes I ordered; this only happens in high-end establishments. So, in my opinion, the value for money isn't excellent, but it's amazing. It will definitely be a point of reference to consider when in the area.

01/02/2026: We would happily recommend this restaurant.

16/02/2026: Great place, warm atmosphere and friendly staff. Delicious food. I recommend it!

04/01/2026: Excellent food and preparation. Knowledgeable and very friendly staff.

05/11/2025: A wonderful experience! Around 1:30 pm, we were found a table for two upstairs with a magnificent view. The sage ravioli were marvelous, and the house pasta al ragù was delicious. I highly recommend it. I highly recommend it!

02/11/2025: There were nine of us and we chose just one dish: a first or second course. The choice was wide and everyone was satisfied. I had prawns, grilled fish, and seafood risotto... I had grilled whitefish, which was good, just a little too salty. Friendly staff

20/10/2025: Very warm welcome. Excellent food. Unfortunately, it was raining... But beautiful view

13/10/2025: Thank you so much to Omar and Cheikh, who were so kind and cheerful! We stopped by just for a birthday cake for our little girl, and the cakes were delicious! The view was beautiful 💓

13/03/2026: Great restaurant in the charming town of Domodossola. Reservations are highly recommended, but since I was alone, they still had a nice table for me in the cellar. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and an unbeatable menu. 16 euros for a starter and main course, including a carafe of wine—you really don't find that everywhere anymore. Together with an espresso and a bottle of water, the whole thing came to 20 euros. The Carbonara was good, and the beef even better. I am not a big fan of polenta, but this was one of the better ones out there. Next time, I would love to come back for the fish (as that is what La Meridiana is known for).

11/02/2026: We stopped here for lunch while passing through. There was a bit of a wait because it was crowded, with tables already reserved and us, rightfully so. The staff was friendly and helpful, professional, and attentive. Some dishes were very good, like the truffle pasta dish and gnocchi, and the portions were generous. The prices were fairly reasonable. Nice family-run business. I can't comment on the rooms.

14/10/2025: One of the best places we've eaten, the place is clean and very welcoming, Matilde and Lorenzo are fantastic! The food was impeccable, an explosion of flavors, we can't wait to go back!

14/10/2025: Family-run restaurant, very welcoming, the risotto with chocolate, goat's cheese and "out of this world" pumpkin was truly delicious, the venison with chestnuts and pumpkin was excellent, the dessert was also very good, I highly recommend the place, I also recommend booking.

18/01/2026: What a great find this restaurant was! Excellent dishes served in a beautifully decorated room.

20/12/2025: The owner is rude and arrogant. He doesn't deserve a penny.

19/02/2026: Perfect welcome, the rooms have no wardrobe, comfortable beds, excellent cleaning, good food too.

15/02/2026: Basic, clean, complete, affordable. Welcoming and friendly, especially the lady who served us breakfast. Excellent value for money. Made a note for next time. Luciano and Maria.

25/02/2026: Anchovies, Rice, and Glory Bagna cauda that doesn't need permission. He stands up, slams his fists on his taste buds, and says, "Today we're eating well, and I'm in charge here." I ordered paniscia without even knowing what it was: it's not a normal risotto, it's a delicious energy concentrate made with lard isotopes. They say Piedmontese cuisine hugs you: today it hugged me tightly and stayed with me for a long time to make sure I'd understood the lesson. I should point out that no passengers were gassed in the car on the return trip. Not just the food, but the lovely people: I felt at home. Honorable mention for the copper pans that were used for ostrich eggs.

09/02/2026: A restaurant serving traditional Ossola and lakeside cuisine. The first courses are delicious, and the venison stew is even better. The polenta could be improved; it's a bit too salty. Highly recommended, and I definitely think I'll be back.

14/03/2026: Dam a Traa has been a regular stop for me for many years, and now that I live far from Verbania, it's a real pleasure to stop by for a bite every time I return to the city. Whether you're in its rustic, osteria-like dining rooms in winter or at the tables near the lake in summer, the abundance, quality, and attentive service are guaranteed. The portions are gigantic and the dishes are truly excellent; furthermore, the fact that the menu changes frequently, while maintaining some signature dishes, makes each visit a new discovery. During my last dinner, I opted for fish and left feeling full and satisfied. The paccheri with diced swordfish, vegetables, Taggiasca olives, and capers were phenomenal: perfectly cooked pasta and a flavorful sauce that paired divinely with the fish. The real highlight, however, was the tuna steak: an absolute delight, tender and tasty even on its own, without the need for additional spices. Honorable mention goes to the trofie with pistachio cream and flambéed shrimp, a truly clever and successful combination. The price is incredibly fair, especially considering the excellent quality-to-quantity ratio.

09/03/2026: There are no complaints about the food or the quality of the dishes. The service is at an all-time low. It's a shame the owner isn't addressing this behavior. This is a place where you should not only leave a review, but also file a police report. Permissiveness, rudeness, and aggression from a waiter with a tattoo on his arm.

07/03/2026: Nice location by Lake Maggiore. The pizzas were decent but nothing special. Unfortunately, the desserts were disappointing and not really worth ordering. The service and the atmosphere were also disappointing. It’s an okay place, but there are definitely better options in Stresa.

05/03/2026: this is one of those places in Stresa that instantly makes you feel you’ve chosen well. The atmosphere is warm and relaxed, with a cozy, welcoming vibe that sets the tone for a great meal. The menu blends classic Italian flavors with just the right touch of creativity. From perfectly cooked pasta to fresh, flavorful secondi, every dish feels genuinely cared for. Portion sizes are generous without being heavy, and the ingredients taste fresh and thoughtfully selected. If you love desserts, save room — their homemade options are absolutely worth it. Service is another strong point: friendly, attentive, and professional, with staff who clearly enjoy what they do. They’re quick with suggestions and make you feel like a guest rather than just another table. Whether you're in Stresa for a day trip or a longer stay, Ristorante Lago Maggiore is a spot that delivers comfort, quality, and great Italian cuisine. A place you’ll want to return to.

15/03/2026: Today we went to this restaurant for a very large family lunch, about thirty people. The food was excellent and high-quality, the service very professional, and the service was enriched with short videos about fishing and the work they do with passion and love for the lake. We found a welcoming atmosphere and felt like part of the family. We thank Mr. Stefano and all his staff. Our compliments, The LAVURI family

06/01/2026: Divine! Christmas motorboat to the Island of Lights – Nativity scenes and flavors on Fishermen's Island: a truly special evening, one that will last a lifetime. For the lights event, we booked dinner at Ristorante Italia, on the island of the same name, and even our arrival on the water, amidst the Christmassy reflections and atmosphere, promised something unique. I'm not a fan of fish—especially lake fish—but I have to say that here they literally made me love it. Dishes of lake fish were divinely prepared, carefully presented, and passionately described by the owner: a talkative, pleasant, and deeply engaging person. Like the rest of the family, of course, but he in particular was able to guide us, with enthusiasm and expertise, in choosing the best they had to offer. The photos speak clearly and tell a lot, even if they can't fully convey the emotions we experienced at the table. Last but not least, the discovery that the restaurant also offers round-trip boat transportation to and from Baveno and Stresa. A boat piloted by the son: a detail that makes all the difference and makes the experience even more intimate, complete, and evocative. An evening of lights dancing on the water, authentic flavors, and genuine people. One to cherish forever.

24/10/2025: Beautiful place! Even though it's autumn, I enjoyed eating outside thanks to the sunny weather. Excellent food, generous portions. The waitress was very kind and helpful.

18/10/2025: A very original meal with surprising and very successful pairings. This meal met my expectations with the quality of the ingredients and their preparation. The service was attentive and thoughtful.

25/09/2025: A warm welcome awaits you at this charming hotel. Opt for a room with a lake view. We had a wonderful time. We'll be back, hoping to enjoy the private beach.

13/09/2025: We stayed in this historic hotel and were truly enchanted! Our room directly overlooked the splendid Borromean Islands: a dreamlike panorama, perfect for a romantic getaway. The atmosphere is welcoming and charming, with a touch of old-world elegance that makes everything even more special. A special thanks to the owner, who was incredibly kind and attentive: she recommended a truly delightful evening meal and even arranged a little surprise for my husband—a gesture we greatly appreciated and which made our stay even more memorable.

02/01/2026: Excellent seafood restaurant in an authentic setting. Top-quality ingredients: the mixed antipasto of lake fillets (5 different selections) is the perfect way to savor the local flavors; you can taste that it's prepared and marinated in-house. The tagliolini with fish ragù is a must-try. Friendly service and a welcoming atmosphere.

18/12/2025: It is located on the fishermen's island so you have to take the boat to get there
