We each got our own pizza since we weren't able to find a decent one since Roma. It paid off and we both demolished each one over the course of our conversation with our friendly neighbor. The patio is divine and the staff friendly. Inside was nice to but the evening was too nice to spend indoors. My husband wants to go back tonight for our last night in town as well.

The food was fresh and light and the prices extremely fair. The staff was attentive and they gave us a tasing menu as we wanted to share everything. The eggplant appetizer melts in your mouth, the gnocchi was so smooth and the pork was excellent. I don't take pictures of food but I wish I did. Don't miss this place!!

It is a bit plain but still better than just the side of grilled veggies that I have had to get at some places. They were helpful and were intelligent with their advice about vegan food. Also, I believe their risottos had milk, so if you are vegan stay away from those. The ambiance was fine, and it was a little loud and a bit of a smaller area, but overall it was a very good place for lunch! I would definately recommend!

I loved the entrance sign and facade of Pinzimonio and decided to check it out. Was immediately impressed with the striking balance of old and new architecture. Modern glass and steel mixed with century old stone and plaster. Started with focaccia burrata. Not what i was expecting, but great nonetheless. Like a pizza dough slathered with creamy burrata. Great appetizer. Just make sure to share it. Next up primi of spaghetti carbonara. This was quintessential and perfect. Perfect al dente with amazing guanciale. Ask to share this for two and the kitchen will expertly split two plates. Cotolleta of chicken was amazing. So big, flat and thin, it barely fit on the plate. Topped with a micro thin layer of prosciutto fat that added subtle richness flavor and texture. The addition of side lettuce was completely non value add and a poor choice of garnish. Tasty nonetheless. Next up fileto di Manzo. One of my favorite Italian beef dishes. This one really delivered. Thick cut at least 8 oz. perfect med rare. A prime cut of bovine for sure. Simple sea salt seasoning. Roasted potatoes. This is what hungry people eat. Outstanding. Service was prompt and friendly. Decent wine offerings and reasonably priced. Definitely recommend.

So this ended up being our favorite restaurant in Carate Urio!…read more So, after a long week in Lake Como, on one of our last nights in the country, we attended the wedding of our dear friends. They were married on a boat, in the middle of the lake... MAGICAL! INTERESTINGLY ENOUGH, we happened to be staying a 5-minute walk from this restaurant but had not tried it, up to that point. As the boat docked from the wedding... GUESS WHERE WE WERE EATING?!?!? HEAVEN! Folks, this place was chosen for a wedding reception... AND THE CHOICE WAS CORRECT! My gosh, we were treated like KINGS. Multiple staff members, all night long. Your wine glass never thought about being 1/2 empty. Wine flowed, waiters quietly danced behind you making every moment special and magical. The food... the food... Y'ALL - THE FOOD! WOW! We had a 5-course meal. Fresh, delightful, admittedly most of it I had no clue exactly what it was (blame the wine) but it isn't often I clean my plate for all 5-courses... that night I did. Getting married in / on Como? Anniversary? DO YOU WANT A MAGICAL PLACE TO PROPOSE MARRIAGE? Here. Stop shopping, stop searching, stop looking around... book a lovely table-for-two on the stone patio, just inches from the water. Make a memory. I swear on my love for sushi, you will not be disappointed!
