I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Lombardia

08/05/2025: Delicious pizza, pleasant atmosphere in an intimate setting.

20/04/2025: I'd been to this place under the previous management, and it wasn't bad. I decided to try the new management for Easter lunch, and the experience was terrible. Everything was seriously lacking, from the terrible service (interminable waits, except for one table that apparently had inexplicably preferential service) to the shameful food quality. It was as if the new management had just moved into the kitchen the day before yesterday. The place is still old and poorly maintained. Absolutely avoid.

03/01/2026: The staff were rude, especially at the cash register, and the pastries were lacking. It's a real shame, because I'd been there as a child with my grandfather (I lived in Pavia at the time), and it was a whole different story. I still remember the waitress's kindness and the cream canoncino I ate!

14/12/2025: December 8th. We decide to stop for an aperitivo at what's described as one of the most renowned and elegant venues in the city. The place is packed, but despite not having booked, we're kindly shown to the upstairs dining room, which is currently empty. A great start. Too bad that from there begins a sort of sociological experiment on how long a customer can be ignored. We sit for at least twenty minutes without anyone noticing us, while other customers arrive. At a certain point, the waiter in charge of the dining room appears and distributes menus... to all the tables except ours, leaving without even looking at us. Apparently, being the first to arrive didn't even warrant a greeting. After a few more minutes and the intervention of a second waiter, we finally manage to intercept the first and politely ask for the menus. We're asked if we want the herbal tea or cocktail menu. I reply "both," since I want a herbal tea and my partner a cocktail. All hell breaks loose. The waiter snorts dramatically, flares his nostrils, purses his lips, and sighs in annoyance, as if I'd insulted him or as if he were facing someone incapable of understanding, repeating the same question in a rude tone. I calmly repeat that we want both menus. He disappears. He returns after several minutes and, with the grace of an Olympic thrower, tosses us a menu of herbal teas and a dessert menu, before disappearing again. At that point, we both order a cocktail and also ask for two chips, enunciating carefully; perhaps a refresher course was needed. Chaos ensues. Tables receive random appetizers, incomplete orders, customers wait. We see our chips and olives arrive at another table, where a woman, appropriately surprised, asks for an explanation. She's told that "they're included in the aperitif." Too bad nothing else arrives for half an hour, with an increasingly nervous child. The ensuing discussion culminates in a very elegant "go fuck yourself..." from a waiter who evidently thought no one was looking. Pure class. Our cocktails arrive without appetizers, which arrive only halfway through after repeated reminders. Excellent chips and olives, it must be said: probably the only thing that worked. At the cashier, we're asked if everything went well. I try to explain my disagreement, but he arrives: the waiter in question (brown hair shaved at the sides with an upward fade, a perpetually sullen and annoyed expression). He interrupts, draws attention to himself, and effectively ends the conversation. The end. Such behavior is unacceptable in a venue open to the public, regardless of the quality of the food or the location. The disrespect, arrogance, and nervousness of just one person caused inconvenience to customers and colleagues all evening. We have no reason to advise against it. We'll probably return, hoping that the owners will pay more attention to staff training and, perhaps, take responsibility for what happened. Apologies, every now and then, are still in fashion.

07/02/2026: STAND AWAY !!! I showed up at this hotel for check-in a little before 2am on a Sunday in July 2024. There I was met with a closed gate with no way to get in for check-in. I have my own car and it is almost impossible to park in the narrow street by the hotel, but I was able to temporarily park in the driveway of a neighbor of the hotel. The hotel is located within a fenced area with a large metal gate and it cannot be opened from the outside and it is therefore not possible to enter either by car or on foot. There is no poster or other information at the gate on how to contact the hotel. The hotel looks completely uninhabited and the neighbor with whom I parked said that there were nonsensical and problematic conditions there. I then called the hotel manager on the number listed on Booking.com and was told that check-in had to be done in the city center at another hotel and that that was the only option I had. To get to this hotel you have to drive through impassable narrow streets with masses of tourists and I told the host that this was out of the question and that he had to show up at the hotel so that I could check in normally. Important: There is no place in the hotel information that it says that check-in should be several kilometers away from the hotel. He refused to come to the hotel to check in there and I therefore had to just leave and find another hotel. This matter is in my opinion completely incomprehensible. I have been on vacation in Europe now for almost four weeks but have never come close to this behavior from a hotel host. STEER AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL !!

10/12/2025: Super central and feels like home

17/03/2026: After a half-hour wait, they took our order. After another half-hour, the first courses, which weren't fish, arrived. Then, after another 40-minute wait, two strawberry cheesecakes arrived, which were basically crushed biscuits with a layer of cream and a layer of strawberry jam... and all before the second courses. There were two of us, and we went because it used to be called "La casa sul lago" (The House on the Lake) and the food was excellent. Now it's called "Pearl on the Lake." They've changed management (they're no longer Italian), with three very young, inexperienced waiters (cutlery on the floor, wrong plates, and it took them more than five minutes to clear and set a table for two). In the past, I used to go with friends at least once a month. Now...never again. We spent €64 for two peach first courses (badly made) and two cheesecakes (which weren't).

01/02/2026: Pizza is so-so, staff are not very welcoming.

16/10/2025: Low-quality pizza, very poor quality, poor leavening, high prices that don't match those listed on the flyer. Never again! I'm giving it one star because it's the best I can give.

21/07/2025: De vacaciones en Lago di Varese, pedimosn3 pizzas take away, riquisimas! excelente masa y productos frescos. . No nos quedamos a comer ahi pero el instante que esperamos las pizzas , observamos que el ambiente era muy agradable , atendido por sus dueños y familia, el sitio estaba lleno, señal de que se come muy bien!! volveremos en otra oportunidad

03/07/2025: Un giorno doveva accadere ed è successo oggi: la mia prima recensione con voto 1. Lavorando anch’io al pubblico, mostro sempre comprensione di fronte a disservizi o inconvenienti che possono capitare perché comprendo che il lavoro del ristoratore e del cameriere sia difficile. Ma quando si è serviti con sufficienza,senza senso di accoglienza e si deve pure assistere a battibecchi fra colleghi, sinceramente certe cose da parte mia non sono accettabili perché viene a mancare il rispetto nei confronti del cliente.

09/05/2026: And in front of the Arena and the view is spectacular 😍

15/02/2026: Slow and expensive. 24 euros for two negronis, fries, and four small pieces of pizza, and a 20+ minute wait. There are many better places.

15/11/2025: Cold pizzas, with raw vegetables. Bufalina cheese more like bread and tomato. Poor-quality salami. Poor.

19/10/2025: Contrary to what was indicated, the restaurant is closed on Sunday for lunch.

01/01/2026: Raw pizza in the center, raw sausage, waiters not at all kind, there were 32 of us and they didn't treat us well, I recommend looking at the bill before paying more.

28/12/2025: I gave one star because it couldn't be any less! There were 4 of us for lunch. The three pizzas we chose were rubbery, the one with thickly sliced ​​mortadella and pistachio discs with an obscene sweet and sour sauce, the other with sausage and nduja, the sausage was fake, the last one was the fried pizza, the ricotta was acceptable but nothing else. 3 miserable half slices of sweet salami, who knows! Spaghetti with tomato sauce was not al dente but almost raw and the tomato was absolutely not there. Exorbitant price for such poor quality products and without considering the €3 cover charge. Not to mention the really dirty and smelly restroom. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

25/03/2026: The place is very dirty and neglected. The pizza is acceptable.

30/01/2026: Horrible, dirty, never again in my life. I ate there yesterday, when we entered I wanted to leave but I wasn't alone and we sat down, I had a pizza and in the late afternoon I started to feel sick, I had food poisoning. Even the people I was with didn't feel well but I had the worst of it! They should close!

10/06/2026: Good food, good service, friendly manager Nicola

07/06/2026: The direktor Nicolo is the best. The greatest spot in Como

07/03/2026: Terrible pizza, inedible, burnt and cold. A homemade broth with stock cubes is better.

05/12/2025: Rude, unprofessional, and lazy. They never have basic ingredients. It's happened several times that I've called to order and, besides giving rude answers, they never have anything (I'm talking about basic ingredients like sausages, olives, ham).

07/05/2026: I ordered a cake, and it tasted awful, obviously old. I asked if they could kindly exchange it for me, but they refused.

12/01/2026: Unfortunately, they've always been rude, even getting angry one day when I asked for toilet paper in the bathroom. They said customers were stealing it and I had to give it back later... but then they got even angrier when I tried to give it back. Huh? I've tried to get kebab there many times, but once for lunch they told me they only did it after 6 PM. But another time I came back at 7 PM and they told me it was only for lunch! It sounds like a joke 😭😭 I don't mean to be mean, but even the decaf coffee was watered down and undrinkable...
