We enjoyed a typical Italian meal (i.e. 2+ hours) during a long weekend in Brenzone sul Garda, one of many picturesque towns on the lake, just a few minutes up the road from Umberto's. We started with the Gran Frito Misto. Even though it was listed in the menu as a secondi, our waiter humored us and let us have it as an antipasti. The assortment of fried seafood and veggies was delish! I loved the calamari and shrimp. Even the sardines weren't bad! After that, we moved on to antipasti and secondi. My sister and I ordered the lasagne because it's a minimum 2 person dish. My hubby ordered the steak because... well... men like red meat? Y'all. I need to wax poetic about this lasagna for a minute. It was super creamy, bubbly and hot. Layers and layers of fresh noodles with a savory meat ragu sauce on top and prosciutto cotto and mushrooms sprinkled throughout. All served in a GIANT cauldron, easily enough for four people even though it was billed as a two person dish. The steak was good, too. And, we also enjoyed the sautéed potatoes. But seriously. Get. The. Lasagna. If you are still reading at this point (why aren't you on your way to Lake Garda for the lasagna?!), I suppose my last anecdote is that the house red wine was delicious.

The restaurant also has an extensive grappa selection which they bring over on a cart. We initially discovered this restaurant on our first trip to Gargnano and it was the perfect romantic dinner for two. The restaurant has a picturesque outdoor dining area overlooking the water (as well as lovely indoor space with floor to ceiling glass so one can appreciate the view in cooler weather). We're back for our second trip to the area and they were especially friendly to our young well-behaved daughter when we came back as repeat customers.

Every dish we ordered was packed with flavor, and they had a very unique menu with lots of local/fresh ingredients. Adrianna speaks English, Italian, and Dutch, so it was a treat to understand her as she described the menu and gave us some recommendations. She was very helpful in offering suggestions as to what was freshest that day. She pointed out that there were no truffles available (as they did not find them)--- I think this is a great sign, as clearly they focus on ingredients that are fresh and available! We had fresh caught tuna, on a bed of arugula and crusted in pistachio -- best I've ever had. Also had a handmade spaghetti with fresh clams and a delicious tomato based sauce with fresh red peppers. Some sort of lemon creme brûlée (the proper name escapes me) for dessert --- I loved the touch of lemon. The only downside is that I wanted to try more! Everything on the menu looked marvelous Adrianna and her husband Paolo -the chef- truly know how to create a wonderful evening with delicious food, great hospitality, and they do it with passion. A must visit! I hope to come back! The prices were quite reasonable as well.

When our food arrived, we accidentally broke one of the wine glasses and glass shattered into our pizza and salad. The food was taken away and the glass removed from the table. When the waiter returned, he told us if we wanted a new order of pizza and salad, he would have to charge us twice ( new order and the food covered in glass). I guess they were more interested in profits than in showing some goodwill. We obviously reordered but left a little surprised.
