We opted for the one on the terrace, and our view was INCREDIBLE. one of the best lunch views we had the entire trip. The service was fast and attentive. My husband ordered the duck which was amazing and so flavorful in a yummy sauce, and I ordered the homemade pumpkin ravioli with cheese fondue sauce. MY PASTA WAS INCREDIBLE. Top 3 of my entire trip and I raved about it to the owner. It had pomegranates to top it and something else (I think mushrooms?)-- it was so flavorful and I wanted to savor every single bite. It just wasn't enough. The portions were a little smaller for the pasta, but that is to be expected at most places since it is meant to be a secondary accompaniment to the main meal. I just ordered that for my meal and it was the perfect portion for me since I wasn't starving. Overall, this was a very memorable lunch for us and you can tell the owner cares a lot about this restaurant, its customers, and its cuisine. I highly recommend a visit here!!! And you truly can't beat the view. Wish we could return!

The views were spectacular and the service was exceptional, the food was good just like all other food we had in Lake Como.

The ambiance is casual for Bellagio, think family restaurant, bring the kids, the family, the neighbors. The pizza - not what we expected for all the hype of it being the 'best pizza place' in Bellagio. First off, by no means do they do half a pie with 1 order & the other half with another - so either order 2 pizzas or opt for 1 to share. We did their basic pizza, not really all that memorable.
