I migliori ristorantinella città Stresa della Verbano-cusio-ossola

02/06/2025: We stopped by in passing the first time, grabbed some wine (2x red) by the glass and was pleasantly surprised at the €8 bill compared to some other more expensive places. Especially when married to the aperitivo board that accompanied it. So the following evening, we planned it as our pre dinner destination. It was busy and lively and just brilliant. Hardly any phones in view, instead just groups of people doing what people should be doing in bars, chatting, laughing and having a brilliant time. Again with the wine and again with the board (see pic) which felt like a starter in its own right. The owner was helping find people space, recommending wines and all of which saw him invited into peoples pics out of respect. Everyone was loving life and it was wonderful to see and be part of. Come here for a great time.

01/06/2025: Très rare ! Bravo ! Nous garderons un très très bon souvenir de cet établissement situé dans une petite rue typique, des spritz au top couplés à une planche offerte par l'établissement et ce, tout en étant en pleine immersion italienne au milieu de l'effervescence des locaux ! excellent accueil du patron en personne en toute simplicité et bonne humeur. Surtout testez ! Et viva l'italia !

21/05/2025: Restaurant recommended by the hotel where we were staying. Everything was excellent, from the welcome to the food. High quality, refined and well thought out dishes.

14/05/2025: Trattoria “La Botte” is a true gem! The food was absolutely amazing - homemade, full of flavor, and deeply rooted in local tradition. The charismatic owner brings so much warmth and character to the place; it’s clear this is a real family-run labor of love. Everything felt authentic, welcoming, and simply top-notch. We will definitely be back!

06/06/2025: Tuvimos una deliciosa comida y una gran experiencia aquí. Nos hicieron sentir muy bienvenidos y el servicio en todo fue excelente. La decoración es muy sencilla y el restaurante está justo fuera de los puntos turísticos, pero el menú es más variado por esa razón. Tomé el risotto con queso local y bresaola, que fue un primer plato pero una porción muy generosa. Mi marido tenía cerdo en salsa de mostaza con patatas y verduras y compartimos un maravilloso pastel de chocolate y helado. Todo se cocinó perfectamente y a 69 euros incluyendo media botella de vino y el cargo de tapadera, excelente relación calidad-precio.

03/06/2025: Beautiful experience, from the restaurant located in the center to the service

25/05/2025: Delicious paninos and such a lovely guy :)

24/05/2025: We arrived specifically to this place because of reviews but it was closed at 14:50 on Saturday 😕 Please update your opening hours

06/06/2025: Parfait. Nous y sommes allés deux fois je recommande vivement accueil Parfait cuisine parfaite. Plats divers et variés prix corrects.

01/06/2025: Este es uno de los únicos bares en Stresa, así que mi fiesta de bodas disfrutó venir aquí. Tiene un bonito patio al aire libre en el que nos sentamos con algunas bebidas y jugamos a las cartas.

02/06/2025: Situé dans le centre de Stresa, ce restaurant doté d’une agréable cour couverte de vignes sert de très bonnes pizzas et d’agreables pâtes

01/06/2025: Excellent restaurant, la cuisine est très bonne. L’ambiance est originale et convivial. Les serveurs sont au top ainsi que le patron j’y retournerai sans problème, les yeux fermés. Par contre n’oubliez pas de réserver, c’est complet tous les jours.

14/06/2025: The restaurant has a charming outdoor courtyard overlooking the lake while the interiors are elegant and refined. The cuisine is well-presented, with pleasant and well-executed dishes. The plin and the guancia are excellent. Overall, a satisfying gastronomic experience, even if without particularly outstanding elements. Professional service. Medium-high prices.

09/06/2025: We had lunch here after 1 year. It was out 4th or 5th time, but I have to share a negative update this time. The service got significantly worse: we got a mediocre welcome, after ordering they rushed all the dishes out, the starter got to us while my wife was washing her hands and it was cold before she came back. Our main was also left there 4-5 min before a server could bring it to us, arriving cold. We were also told that picking individual dishes from the menu would mean getting a larger sized version, but comparing with our pictures from last year they weren’t at all, it was basically like getting a tiny bite from the menu for a massive overprice. They served our meal in 30 min like they do at a Chinese all you can eat, but the price was still close to a Michelin starred place. Honestly when I came in the last I had an amazing experience and the food is still good, but for this price the service can’t be left to juniors that are still learning the craft and who probably used to work at McDonalds before. That leaves the guests a poor taste, as after spending 200€ for a couple of tiny dishes you wonder if you were not better served by one of the cheaper options next door.

11/06/2025: Super delicious food, handmade noodles. And the price is quite reasonable!

09/06/2025: We arrived without a reservation and were very well received by the server. The dishes were delicious and the price/quality ratio was excellent, especially for a tourist spot like this. The recommended wine of the day was delicious!

01/06/2025: Les cocktails sont juste excellents ! De nombreux choix et originaux et très bien faits! Le cadre est magnifique avec la terrasse sur le lac, Le personnel est vraiment très sympathique merci à eux pour ce très bon moment !

31/05/2025: Bel emplacement Accueil chaleureux Prix corrects Une petite plage privée fait partie de l’établissement ( pas encore ouverte lors de notre passage)

02/06/2025: This is clearly not a michelin table. For anyone used to french michelin table (I'm not talking about stars or anything) please don't be fulled. When a client is asking for a non alcoholic drink and the only thing you have to propose is sprits without proposing anything else when the client is not interested, this is not a michelin. The menu is made of paper sheets, decorated with oil drops 👌 this is not a michelin. The quality of the starters, well, there is no balance in the tastes, the salade is thrown in the plate the sauces are too acidic. For the plate, you don't put aluminium paper around a potato in a michelin table plate, nothing is neat, from the poor salad leaves that are lost in the plate, the stuffing is grossly cut, no balance in the tastes. This is really the level of an average braaserie you'll find in france, and that you'll forget about. Let's skip the dessert cause it is of the same level really. I was scared of another tourist trap, well I should have thought twice before going there.

23/05/2025: We had a wonderful lunch on Saturday, May 17th at Stornello: the dishes were excellent and refined, and the service impeccable. The best part: Mimo's friendliness. The server, in addition to being cheerful and attentive to his customers, gave us ideas for visiting the beautiful town of Stresa. Thanks, Mimo. Vincenzo and Alessandra

10/06/2025: A really tasty meal on the terrace with a memorable view

09/06/2025: The best thing is the location of the terrace practically in the lake. Good food in line with other restaurants frequented in the area, price a little high. However it is there
