Easily the best wine and charcuterie restaurant in all of Bellagio. Set in a 300 yr old cellar…read moreoriginally used to store snow for keeping food preserved but now is a perfect wine cellar with great ambiance. Best to make a reservation hours or 1 day in advance to get the better table in the back room surrounded by wine racks. Matteo was amazing with expert knowledge in all available wines and very fun demeanor and very attentive service. 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!!

It's a small operation that does it right. I had the most incredible bruschetta of my life. A white buffalo style creamy cheese layered on toasted bread with fresh, red full flavored tomatoes. This is not the traditional version but order it. Their wild boar pasta was excellent along with the cacio and pepe pasta. The pasta was cooked to perfection. The service was good, kind owner, cutest location and small menu is delicious. How this is flying under the radar I'm shocked. We ate at some of the highly touted restaurants and were underwhelmed by other reviewers recommendations. I loved, loved this small, precious and special little gem.

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.

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.

The service was incredible, and the staff was very attentive and efficient. The food came out quickly, and there was no wait. The first time we came, we traveled a on a whim while it was raining, and they had lots of space. We came the very next night after making a reservation and it was packed. I definitely recommend making a reservation. I cannot express how amazing the food was, and how kind the staff was. Extra props to all of the staff members, there were even times where three waiters were serving us our plates in order to make everything cohesive. We came back within 24 hours.Everything was DELICIOUS! My favorite was the chef's pasta

Where do I even start. I guess this place got really popular from TikTok and a friend wanted to go…read morebased on that. Little did we realize TikTok folks have sense of taste. The beef tartare was off putting and gave me an impression of what dog food would be like. The special zucchini flower was way too watery and overpriced for what it was. The flambé was just over powered by the mustard flavors and was cooked unevenly. For the price point you'd think it would be more refined. The saving grace for this review and only reason I gave it a 2 stars was that service was not bad and the sautéed mushrooms. We should have gotten that as a risotto or pasta. We could have eaten that all night. Overall for the price point of this place we do not recommend unless you're trying your hand at influencer life who have no taste buds.

I have very mixed feelings about the restaurant and suite experience:…read more Positives: 1. THE VIEW - amazing, gorgeous during sunset, the wow factor is there 2. The room - luxurious room, very homey, loved the bathroom especially the shower 3. The owner - saved our trip by ordering a last minute taxi and helping us retrieve a forgotten phone, very accommodating, ensured we were satisfied with everything 4. The food - the food was good! (not great) but good Negatives: 1. Room was aired out and filled with bugs, I mean spiders like 10-15 spiders (some were daddy long legs which don't bother me but we had 2 fat huge brown spiders that were above our bed that we had to kill before sleeping to rest easy) 2. Expensive - we got charged 34 euros for 4 zucchini flowers that were off the menu felt very taken advantage of 3. On the hill - there is no transportation to get to and from you literally have to hike which is very very difficult uphill

However, there are limited seats available, which has led to very long lines. Thankfully, my boyfriend and I were able to get seats immediately because we came in between meals. However, in my opinion, the service was subpar. We recognize that the waiters were probably tired and overwhelmed from the lunch rush, but felt that when they do occasionally check on you, they're not very friendly. We had ordered a glass of wine as well as lemon and watermelon granitas, which are almost like an Italian ice slushy. The granitas are good, but not anything terribly special. Would recommend coming for the views, but otherwise the drinks as well as the service were average, if not slightly lower than average (in my opinion). There was also someone vaping right next to us, which was off putting for me personally and may have been better if there was more spacing between the tables.
