    Salmon appetizer. Excellent!
    Eli M.

    Eccezionale! Understandably, Argegno, sitting on the bank of lake Como does not have a wide selection of restaurants. La Piazzetta does Italian cuisine well, with wines from the region, a nice selection of dishes with warm and accommodating service. We sat down for lunch at noon and got up at 2:30 after 3 courses accompanied by local wine happy and full. We tried the Salmon, tuna and tuna tartar at the recommendation of the staff and they were all tasty, fresh and light to open the appetite going. As the custom in Italy, fresh breads were placed on the table. These along with the olive all would have gotten the high marks for La Piazzetta. The Pizzas were everything I hoped for. the crust was thin and crispy, simple and tasty. The desserts were great and included a tiramisu which was exceptional. Outstanding experience, can't wait for the next time!

    When I saw this restaurant from the outside I thought it was a "nothing special pizza place"... Inside however it turned out to be a nicely decorated dinner location! I was pleasantly surprised about the food.. The way the chef had presented my tournedos was great... On a big leaf! And it tasted excellent! The service was good and fast. Not a cheap place, but one I'll surely go back to! They should fix their electronics 'issue' though as not being able to pay with a credit or bank card is a bit of a nuisance... ;)

    Tonight was our third night in A row coming to this restaurant. Chris the owner has a true passion for his business. We were impressed that he remembered our names after the very first time we met. The food was the best food we've tasted throughout 10 days in Italy. we come from New York so our expectations are very high and this restaurant has surpassed our expectations with a very reasonable price for the quality of the food. The wait staff was very to happy to see us each and every time we returned. We would recommend the salmon, the pizza, pasta and the ambience was very warm and cozy. The complementary Prosecco on our second visit and a bottle of Gropper reserve was putting a table after our third visit. If we were here any longer in Argento we would have worked our way completely through the menu. Thank you Chris for wonderful experience over the past three nights in Argento. A picture tells 1000 words hopefully these pictures will tell even more. Thanks again Chris!!!

    The setting is gorgeous and the meal itself was great. The staff was friendly. We took an 11 am…read moreferry from Varenna which was a 1.5 hour journey. The courses and service lasted from 12:30 to almost 4:30. Then we had to wait for the ferry. There are very few ferries that come to Comacina so this ended up being our entire day just for lunch. We were close to Villa del Balbianello and had planned to go there but we did not have time so that was disappointing.

    I wanted a uniquely Italian meal experience why on a recent vacation to Lake Como and Locanda del'…read moreIsola Comacina did not disappoint. A cab from Cadenabbia to the small pier where the restaurant provided water tax waited was easy. The short boat trip to the only island on the lake only added to the excitement of the meal that was to come. This is a fixed price pre-set menu meal starting with a variety of fresh deliciously prepared vegetables. 8 different veggies including sautéed celery, beans, and other greens. A main course of "trout" salmon. Boned at the table and super moist and tender. An excellent salad, some fried chicken. The food kept coming. Wine was included and was paired perfectly with the meal. House made ice cream and fresh fruit topped of the meal. And the finale. Coffee and a story. Benvenuto Puricelli, the owner, burns a pot of brandy and sugar in a bowl while telling the story of the curse of the island. Mixing the coffee with the brandy for a delicious finish to a great evening
