OH wasn't this a fun lunch during our time on Lake Como!…read more So undecided while actually in Como, we ended up just picking the nearest side-walk open restaurant... we picked well! Hosterietta was a lovely decision! We decided to sit outside on a day where Satan had obvious controls of the thermostat. They were kind enough not to judge me for wiping the sweat from my brow so I didn't drip in my food. They brought me a fresh towel... and then likely judged me harshly behind closed doors... sorry folks, bad American manners but it was HOT! FORTUNATELY, they have lovely massive umbrellas outside to sit under, and they helped immensely! They have a wonderful menu, both in Italian and English. They have very accommodating staff that are quick to tell / share of their favorite menu items (I love it when they do this!). I actually chose my meal based on their recommendation. Forgive me for not remembering what I ordered. I did start with a salad... heads-up folks, if you start with a "starter salad"... it is enough for an entire meal! They recommended wine. The four of us planned to split one bottle... as you all can imagine... that didn't happen... after a few glasses each, we all left with smiles on our faces!

The lobster bisque is good, as previously reviewed. We order a delicious salad off the menu, which was also excellent with watercress, lettuce, carrots, cabbage, and tomatoes. The lobster ravioli was fine, not great. Same for the linguine with sea urchin. The pan seared branzino was fresh and good, nothing spectacular. Prices were very fair. The food is probably 3.5 star but the service was 5 so I'm giving them a 4 for the effort!

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!
