Best to make a reservation hours or 1 day in advance to get the better table in the back room surrounded by wine racks.

We ended up purchasing many bottles of wine (that we had tasted through their numerous wine tasting menu) and had them shipped back to the States right on site. If you like wine paired with amazing meats and cheeses, this is undoubtedly the place to go. Also recommended by all the locals we interacted with. Enjoy!!

How is it a small wine bar tucked away in a back alley in Tremezzo has emerged as a top-rated…read morerestaurant in all of Lake Como? This was the question that drew my wife and me to Cantina Follie on our recent visit. After spending an evening there, I now understand its high ratings. It's initial charm comes from it's illusive location off the beaten path on a quiet narrow alley up and away from the busy lake-side road with its strip of restaurants and shops. After entering the ground level entry of the restaurant, you then climb up through short catacomb-like 'tunnels' up to the rooftop dining area, passing along the way small nooks lined with a jars of homemade Italian delicacies and rooms displaying an extensive collection of wines. The rooftop, with its grapevine canopy, is very informally furnished with what are essentially picnic tables and are lit minimally by a small number of votive-style candles. All-in-all a charming and romantic setting if ever there was one, made all the nicer by the congenial and eager-to please staff who are undoubtedly all part of the family-run business. Being a small-time wine collector, I asked for something special that I would not find back home the US. After some discussion, I was persuaded to try what she referred to as a "meditation" wine from the nearby Valtinella region: a Triacca "Prestigio" bottling. This is, she explained, their style of making premium wines by leaving the harvested grapes out to dry out before pressing, the dried grapes making a more concentrated wine. The young lady serving us insisted on decanting the 6 year old bottling after which the 'meditation' wine turned out to be excellent. As a premium wine, it came with premium pricing, 40 Euros. But most of the wines offered are priced reasonably at around half as much. Accompanying the wine are served cold food plates. We tried a plate of parmesan, honey and fresh pears, a combination that, to our surprise and delight, worked beautifully. We also tried a second plate that mixed olive-oil marinated porcini mushrooms with parmesan. Again simply delicous. We discovered that jars of these delictable marinated porcini were among those delicacies spotted earlier on the way to the roof. It was so good, we took home several jars. The charmingly rustic setting, the congeniality of the hosts, the wonderful food, and lots of great wine made for a giddily romantic evening for the two of us. Although it may not be the absolute top wining and dining adventure we had at Lake Como, Al Veluu Restaurant is hard to beat, it was certainly an evening we will remember fondly.

The red wine was local, with the same grape made for Barollo but with a different soil leading to a similar but different taste and it was magnificent. I had one glass, switched to a Chardonnay recommended by the waiter, which I enjoyed but preferred the first glass so I switched back for my third. All in all after four glasses of wine and a bottle to go the bill came to 94 euro, which I felt was reasonable. Each glass comes with a small snack. When I'm back in Varenna I will be back here.

They said "of course!" We sat in the far inner corner next to their cellar and it was so fun to see all the bottles they had back there. Felt like we were in a cool cave. I got a caprese and the cheese was so good that I almost fell out of my chair. This was the beginning of a love affair between me and Italian mozzarella. My husband got lasagna and really liked it. The wine list was mostly local wines, which I love. We got a tasting of 3 wines to share so we could get a sense for the local flavor. They were all in the correct glasses for their styles of wine, which I respect. They talked about each for about 30 seconds, poured generous portions, then left us to enjoy. We ended up getting an outside table around 20 min in and they moved us outside. It was awesome! The staff is fun and it's just a beautiful place to exist.
