Easily the best wine and charcuterie restaurant in all of Bellagio. Set in a 300 yr old cellar…read moreoriginally used to store snow for keeping food preserved but now is a perfect wine cellar with great ambiance. Best to make a reservation hours or 1 day in advance to get the better table in the back room surrounded by wine racks. Matteo was amazing with expert knowledge in all available wines and very fun demeanor and very attentive service. We ended up purchasing many bottles of wine (that we had tasted through their numerous wine tasting menu) and had them shipped back to the States right on site. If you like wine paired with amazing meats and cheeses, this is undoubtedly the place to go. Also recommended by all the locals we interacted with. Enjoy!!

We travel around the world, however waiting for a table for 90 plus minutes after being told it would be 20-30 minutes just is just not acceptable ANYWHERE in the world...

The bruschetta was absolutely incredible and the tomatoes were the freshest I've ever tasted. The pizza had the perfect amount of crunch and flavor And we all really enjoyed the carbonara and lasagna as well. Great wine list to boot! Given the limited options around Menaggio, we ended up eating here almost every dinner of our trip. They also own a very sweet wine shop down the road that is an absolute must visit. The lady who ran it was so warm and welcoming. Our kids wanted to come in every day just to say hello to her! (And we took plenty of olive oil and wine home)

It is a mom & son owned restaurant with warm and welcoming service. While the menu is not too expansive, what they do have to offer makes up for it in quality, taste, and freshness. I would come back again and again. One of the best hidden gems of Bellagio. Not pictured here, but order a salad with your pastas! We enjoyed the Mediterranean one and made our own dressing with the balsamic vinegar and olive oil table side. Amazing meal.

Simply the best! This is probably the best restaurant we tried in Bellagio. We tried a lot. The…read moremenu is limited and take note the kitchen closes at 6 pm but you can still order wine until 7 pm. They are located in a secluded alley hiding from the throngs of tourists. It's a small operation that does it right. I had the most incredible bruschetta of my life. A white buffalo style creamy cheese layered on toasted bread with fresh, red full flavored tomatoes. This is not the traditional version but order it. Their wild boar pasta was excellent along with the cacio and pepe pasta. The pasta was cooked to perfection. The service was good, kind owner, cutest location and small menu is delicious. How this is flying under the radar I'm shocked. We ate at some of the highly touted restaurants and were underwhelmed by other reviewers recommendations. I loved, loved this small, precious and special little gem.

Excellent service and food! Everything is great. Best place in Veranna in my opinion.read more

The red wine was local, with the same grape made for Barollo but with a different soil leading to a similar but different taste and it was magnificent. I had one glass, switched to a Chardonnay recommended by the waiter, which I enjoyed but preferred the first glass so I switched back for my third. All in all after four glasses of wine and a bottle to go the bill came to 94 euro, which I felt was reasonable. Each glass comes with a small snack. When I'm back in Varenna I will be back here.

The particular alley it was on was not as bustling as the others and the outdoor tables looked inviting as we passed by. We ended up dining inside, where we could be seated immediately. The decor was impressive and fun. We went with a local buckwheat noodle dish (pizzoccheri), which had a very unique and earthy flavor. Recommended to grind fresh pepper on it before enjoying. Worth trying if you're adventurous and want to familiarize yourself with the cuisine of the Valtellina valley. We also had a more classic red sauce pasta (lasagne al ragù di carne). Very thin, light, and elegant noodles in both dishes. An excellent portion size for lunch. Service was attentive and outstanding. Stop by for a quiet and delicious lunch in the busy little lakeside village of Bellagio.
