I migliori ristoranti in Verbano-cusio-ossola

15/08/2025: Working with customers means welcoming them, or at least not making them feel uncomfortable with your jokes. I arrive with friends for a drink, and when we ask for pineapple juice, instead of replying, "We offer local organic products, so we have other flavors," we're told, "We have Piedmontese products, and until proven otherwise, pineapples don't grow in Piedmont." This wasn't even accompanied by a laugh or a smile to soften the unsolicited joke about where pineapples grow. The waitress's communication problem persists when she asks for three small bottles of water, with a counter-proposal, "Okay, let's make a large one," bringing us a glass carafe. It's unprofessional to communicate with customers in such a colorful and off-putting manner.

14/08/2025: We opted for lunch at this restaurant, but we didn't look at the menus at the entrances—very bad, I'd say! There's little choice, in fact...very little! Menu branch until 11:30. The specials of the day were announced verbally, thinking they were a first and second course menu, even though the menu says "First and Second Course Menu," which could include water or coffee, but they don't. But there's no cover charge, and the bread they make costs €2. Vegetarian dishes, sandwiches, and traditional dishes, but with few options. Maybe they're trying to optimize the menu just so there's not too many options to choose from. In the end, we chose: A first course menu A second course menu A plate of gnocchi A fruit tart Water €37 Would I go back? No!

13/06/2025: The restaurant is incredibly delicious. It may be a bit pricey, but quality comes at a price. Everything is still within reason and perfectly fine. If you value good, high-quality food, then this is the place for you. The service was also good, and we felt comfortable. We'll be back when we go on holiday there again. Keep up the good work.

31/03/2025: Chiuso ed aperto in altra sede diversa da Mergozzo... con nostra (e non solo nostra, nucleo familiare di 7 o 8 persone con bimbi al seguito) amara sorpresa visto il mancato avviso. (Vedi riferimenti riportati su Tripadvisor e su "dove mangiare a...." e la mancanza di un cartello nella sede di Mergozzo)

07/10/2025: Personally, I'd never eaten at the famous Gigi Bar before. The cappuccino was good, but the margheritina they put on the cup wasn't as good as store-bought ones; it tasted too much like eggs. The box, however, was beautiful (I got the 8-piece one for €7), and the biscuits were delicious.

07/10/2025: Delicious desserts and friendly staff

07/06/2025: Overall a nice place. Fixed price menu, a good variety of pizzas. A cacio e pepe that didn't satisfy me but was still edible, a sufficient vitello tonnato, a dish of cooked vegetables adequate. It didn't leave its mark...

29/09/2025: Good, varied menu, nice place, nice view

20/09/2025: The food is delicious, but the service is unfriendly. We weren't even offered dessert or coffee. It's a shame. The location is great.

15/09/2025: Amazing Bruschetta and view. Really friendly staff

10/09/2025: What a place to have a drink… Wonderfull experience and services. Really.

29/07/2025: Viajando con un grupo de 33 personas, cenamos en este atractivo restaurante anoche. Pasando por el comedor principal hacia atrás hay un comedor al aire libre con plantas y arbustos. El servicio fue rápido y eficiente. Empezamos con una ensalada mixta, que tenía muchos trozos de tomate. Lo siguiente fue muy buen risotto de hongos, y una galette de queso y espinacas. Me hubiera gustado tener algo de guarnición en el plato.

20/07/2025: Certo, non sarà il Grand Hotel Et Des Iles Borromees, ma se cercate un buon alberghetto tranquillo, in pieno centro a Stresa, a 3 minuti a piedi dal lago e dall'imbarcadero, con camere essenziali ma pulitissime e perfettamente insonorizzate con bagno con sanitari rinnovati, e letto supercomodo, il Fiorentino fa per voi. Molto gentili il signor Federico e i suoi collaboratori, pronti a soddisfare ogni necessità; convenzionale, ma con prodotti di qualità dolci e salati (veramente ottime le marmellate) la colazione, con bevande calde espresse direttamente dal bar. Prezzo nella norma. Possibilità di usufruire di un ottimo servizio ristorante (che ho già valutato positivamente in passato).

18/08/2025: Perfect for a drink and a swim in the lake. You can also rent SUPs, etc. - unfortunately, we didn't have time for that.

14/08/2025: A lovely, quiet spot on the lake with comfortable, affordable lounge chairs. You can eat and drink, rent subs, go water skiing, etc. It's a nice, relaxing spot. Dogs are welcome in a designated area.

14/07/2025: Maden var lokal, lækkert, frisk. Smagte super dejligt. Vi var de eneste med børn, men det fungerede meget fint alligevel. Fik lov til at bestille en børne-pasta, selvom der ikke var børne-retter på kortet. Kan anbefales.

08/07/2025: Das Essen war hervorragend. Ich hatte ein Rindertatar als Vorspeise. Mein Mann wählte keine. Aber sie brachten unaufgefordert 2 Teller und stellten die Vorspeise in die Mitte. Das war sehr aufmerksam. Das Rindertatar war hervorragend. Ich kann mich nicht erinnern, jemals ein so perfektes Tatar gegessen zu haben. Engagiert abgeschmeckt und mit karamellisiert Zwiebeln, Kapern und gerüsteten Mandeln war es einfach hervorragend! Auch der Hauptgang, ich hatte Pasta mit Muscheln, war nicht nur mit seiner sanften Schärfe köstlich, sondern auch wirklich so abgeschmeckt, dass es kein Nachwürzen bedarf. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder, auch wenn der Service bis auf eine Ausnahme sehr steif war. Das Essen sollte man sich nicht entgehen lassen. Es ist wunderbare italienische Küche!

29/09/2025: Very good prices and fine food.

21/09/2025: A very nice restaurant with a view of the alpine dairy, and there are plenty of parking spaces directly in front. The menu offers everything from pasta to fish, meat, mussels, and vegetarian dishes.

23/09/2025: Bad experience, rooms close to the highway, poor food and approximate service!

12/09/2025: Good restaurant for a fair price, will definitely come back

15/09/2025: Found by chance but a pleasant surprise, excellent food, friendly service and fair prices

07/09/2025: It's always a pleasure to come and eat at their place, every time I'm in the valley, I never miss the opportunity to come and have lunch here.

01/09/2025: Nice place, stopped for breakfast, prices are normal, I would say ok

02/07/2025: Good ice cream and a good selection, but very expensive. There is an equally good gelateria 300 m away in Omegna, only cheaper.

29/06/2025: OVER THE TOP! Get some advice! They will make you drink really good products! Excellent food! Well done!
