We stopped by during the local mushroom festival and ordered fresh pasta with Porcini mushrooms -- it was incredible!

The drinks were quite good, the aperitivo was disappointing. The 2 mini-sandwiches were really sad and the chips were sub-standard. I wished people stopped feeding them to pigeons, as they were roaming among the tables looking for food.

Formidable restaurant with tasty cuisine - for both the eyes and taste gums. Not only did the…read morerabbit rolls add on perfectly to the gamba gnocchi, but the forthcoming service and impressive surroundings (just look at the wooden designer eggs you can sit in!) made for a special environment, in which food and Franciacorta taste even better. The red wine glasses, though, could've been cleaned better (one had lip marks on the rim). Overall, a must-see (or "-dine" for that matter) for all Lago Maggiore visitors around Baveno.

This was our first stop in Stresa. Cozy little place down a small side street but what a meal…read more The pizza was cooked to perfection and flavors were remarkable.
