    25th Anniversary couple in heaven.

    We sat in the wine cellar(beautiful), asked them to bring us whatever they recommend and the rest is history! As a native son of a shrimp fisherman in a food city- New Orleans - I had become quite a picky snob about fresh seafood and produce. Thank you Chef Luigi Gandola for opening my eyes to one of the best meals we've ever experienced! You honestly changed our lives with your personality and especially your menu/wine pairings. We will be back.

    Award-winning, chef of Salice Blu, demonstrated the serving preparation of this huge fish to our table.

    The food at this restaurant is not only exquisite, but is served beautifully on the plate. Chef Luigi is very interactive with this guests, and the wait staff is very attentive. You will fully enjoy an evening of great food at this restaurant.

    We really lucked out to get a reservation at this spot! A good friend recommended it and I'm so glad she did! Not only was the dinner delicious but the service was impeccable.

    I've never been failed twice in the same night, but both Yelp and TripAdvisor let me down. My friend and I were looking for a respectable restaurant on our last night in Lake Como. We thought we'd shell out the extra cash in exchange for something off the beaten-tourist-path. We trekked 30 minutes to get to this restaurant, only to see it empty. Not a good sign on a Friday night, but what the hell, it had awesome ratings. The service was quick and friendly. The ambiance was lackluster. And the music, well my dentist office plays better. But what really missed the mark was the food. My friend and I are spoiled given that we have endless options of good food in NYC, so we had middle of the road expectations for this place even with the wonderful reviews. I ordered the lobster dish and my friend got the seafood pasta. Both were mediocre at best. The lobster was not fresh, was super small and was chewy. The scallop was good, however it was small as well. The other two servings that came with my meal were unmemorable. For 28euro, I expected much more. My friend's dish tasted as though it had been seasoned with aquarium water. There was nothing good about this meal, other than the lovely presentation and the cheap wine. Also, there was a pane e coperto fee of 3euro per person. Give me a break. We both left hungry, sad and confused b/c of all the great reviews. Perhaps it was an off-night, but we won't be returning.

    What an amazing dinner experience! The food was incredible, the staff made us feel super welcome and right at home, and the environment and ambiance was perfect. My boyfriend and I made a reservation the day of and got to the restaurant early, where they seated us with a drink. We ordered the 5 course flavors and memories meal, which was extremely delicious and decadent. The head chef, Luigi, even took us for a tour of the wine cellar and gave us a ride to the ferry when we were worried we were going to miss it ("No one misses the ferry with Chef Luigi!"). Could not recommend this place more, it's the most memorable meal we've had here!

    This was one of the place settings at the wedding, including the beautifully created menu.

    I have been to this restaurant many times prior and knew the food was truly a work of art. And the Chef, Luigi Gandola, is truly entertaining as well! That is why we knew we wanted to reach out to him when it came time to move our wedding plans to Italy! Salice Blu's Luigi Gandola, his gracious wife, and amazing staff catered several pre-wedding events and our wedding day. Luigi also assisted with my last minute preparations for our wedding that got changed 3 months prior due to COVID issues in our original location. He truly handheld us through every step and is meticulous down to the last detail, just as he is with his amazing food. His wife, Camilla, even hand painted us our special flower/wedding color on our menu. Everything was a fairytale come true and it would not have happened without them! Honestly, he even ran like a full on gazelle, leaping into action to make everything perfect. I cannot thank them enough.

    Our group of 7 had a wonderful experience dining here- two of us even decided to take the cooking class with Chef Luigi the next day. The restaurant itself is beautiful; the staff is friendly and accommodating; and the food is creative and delicious. My favorite dishes were the Mediterranean fish, the tagliatelle and the lobster in a wonderful salad that incorporated currants and bits of pineapple (delicious). Every dish was beautifully plated and we all enjoyed our time here - even my picky Italian husband! We took the cooking class the next day which I highly recommend. Great dining experience in beautiful Bellagio!

The particular alley it was on was not as bustling as the others and the outdoor tables looked inviting as we passed by. We ended up dining inside, where we could be seated immediately. The decor was impressive and fun. We went with a local buckwheat noodle dish (pizzoccheri), which had a very unique and earthy flavor. Recommended to grind fresh pepper on it before enjoying. Worth trying if you're adventurous and want to familiarize yourself with the cuisine of the Valtellina valley. We also had a more classic red sauce pasta (lasagne al ragù di carne). Very thin, light, and elegant noodles in both dishes. An excellent portion size for lunch. Service was attentive and outstanding. Stop by for a quiet and delicious lunch in the busy little lakeside village of Bellagio.

We sat outside and ordered an Aperol Spritz ,made exceptionally well , along with a delicious platter of assorted cheeses and jams. There were several hard cheeses and several soft such as goat cheese with cherries. All so good . The pumpkin and pear jams were excellent and complimented the cheeses so well. This is a perfect spot to sit and unwind , highly recommended.

    Lovely restaurant in Bellagio with the cutest outdoor terrace plus delicious food!…read more We had a reservation at this restaurant on a weekday night, and I would definitely recommend getting a reservation if you can since it was quite busy when we were there. We ended up getting seated right at the edge of the vine-covered terrace overlooking the beautiful Salita Serbelloni which just gave such a romantic vibe overall. All of the food we had was phenomenal. We started with the roasted octopus and potato gnocchi, both of which were very tasty with great flavors. The octopus was cooked perfectly, and I also loved the ragu sauce that went with the gnocchi. Then, my fiance and I had their fish of the day which they cook up in front of you, and it was served with seasonal vegetables and roasted potatoes. This was absolutely delicious -- the fish was tender and so fresh!

    We were able to get in without a reservation but while the rooftop set-up was really nice,…read moresomething felt slightly off in my opinion. I think partly it was that our general online research offered a lunch menu that was a la carte, but they only had a prefix menu when we were dining there. In the end, I personally feel like this is more 3.5 stars, and what made it just shy of 4 stars was that the prefix menu felt like a cash grab. The dishes themselves were hit or miss (eg the cacio e pepe dish was subpar and the flavor wasn't great) but we had a beef tartare that was pretty good!

What a beautiful setting and the day was warm and sunny. We each ordered a glass of wine, and then scoured the menu, finally settling on a pasta dish for one, pizza for the other one, and Mr. Bee and I split a pizza. When in Italy one must have as much pizza as you can. Each is different, but never a bad one. I have to say, the pizza was the best we had on the trip. The crust was light and crunchy, but tender. The sauce was simple but incredible. The mushrooms and prosciutto were the icing on the pie. The service was friendly and fast. We absolutely loved our lunch at this little eatery.

In…read morecinematic black and white detail, I distinctly recall spending an afternoon strolling the cobbled passageways of Bellagio with my beau, George Clooney. We sampled local cuisine and shopped our hearts out before returning to our villa on the shore of Lake Como. However... upon reflection, a more accurate memory features a very sweaty Nico hobbling on blistered feet, sans Clooney, in desperate need of shade and refreshment. Now that I recall, Forma e Gusto came into my life at a perfect moment in time. Tucked in between several buildings, under a lush canopy of leaves, Forma e Gusto offers respite on a hot summer day. The restaurant offers intimate indoor seating, as well as several tables lining the covered alley. Be sure to check out the charming outdoor bar as well. Their menu offers most of the usual dishes found on Lake Como, with a few surprises thrown in. I ordered the Ravioli di Pesce di Lago, buttery raviolis filled with trout and goat cheese. I made the right choice! I've since tried to replicate this deliciousness at home and have failed spectacularly! The restaurant's raviolis were the result of locally sourced ingredients skillfully prepared by someone with years of experience. I have vivid sense memory of those remarkable raviolis; I hope to one day taste them again. I was only in Bellagio for a single afternoon, and didn't have the opportunity to dine elsewhere. It's possible there are restaurants more deserving of your attention, however Forma e Gusto came to my rescue with their delicious food and outstanding customer service. (Roberto deserves an award for his ability to effortlessly multitask, and to describe the menu items poetically. He's no George Clooney, but he's a gem for sure!)
