So Make a reservation. The place is pretty big with limited inside seating. Although most is covered. Service was great from both servers on both nights. Never felt rushed. We ordered the long pizza and salad to share. The salad was a simple big bowl of fresh arugula and we dressed it ourselves with a bit of lemon juice, oil and a white balsamic vinegar. Perfect. We altered the pizza a bit and omitted the tuna and replaced with thinly slice red onions that went with roasted peppers, artichokes and mushrooms. We expected it to come all mixed together and we were wrong. Individual sections each having its own veggie. It was fantastic. Highly recommend. Pizza, salad with cocktails and nice tip about $60 Ch. just remember to make reservations.

Every single dish we ordered was absolutely delicious, and weeks later I'm still dreaming about the truffle pasta. It was one of the best meals of our entire trip. The restaurant was completely packed, yet the service never missed a beat. The staff was incredibly friendly, attentive, and efficient. Despite how busy they were, our food arrived surprisingly quickly, and everything tasted exceptionally fresh and made to order. For travelers, it was also very welcoming and easy to navigate. Several members of the staff spoke English, and an English menu was available, which we appreciated. (I'm not sure if menus were available in other languages besides English and Italian.) We sat outside and enjoyed a beautiful view of the Duomo, which made the experience even more memorable. My only warning is to keep an eye on your table--there are plenty of pigeons flying around hoping to steal a crumb or two! That said, there wasn't much chance of leftovers for them to steal anyway because the food was just that good. If you're visiting Lake Como, make Da Pietro a priority. It was the highlight of our dining experiences in Italy, and I can't wait to return.

We were lucky to be seated outside after about a 10 minute wait on a busy Friday evening. Our server Lucco was very sweet and though very busy did his best to be attentive. We started with sparkling water, proseccos, margherita pizza and a salad. Those were delivered promptly. Next I ordered the linguine frutti di mare which was sooo delicious and the seafood was so fresh (prawns, mussels, scallops). However, there was an unsavory taste left in our mouths after my friend's food had hair in it and she asked to return it to the kitchen. A lady server came over and aggressively insisted that the hair belonged to my friend because it had to be "extensions". This was an unpleasant experience to say the least My friend declined another dish from the kitchen and we shared my pasta which we both enjoyed but I'm sad she wasn't able to enjoy her meal. Overall, we still really enjoyed the food we did try.

We started with the beef tartar which was flavorful, but every other bite had gristle. I got the tagliatelle with prawn and the sauce was fishy, which I could not understand at all because the prawns themselves tasted fine. My son got the ravioli, which was just ok. Finally, we ordered the hot chocolate cake (think mini lava cake) - which was good but very small. Maybe we ordered all the wrong things. The service was good. The inside of the restaurant was pleasant.
