I'm very thankful that the owners of our hotel recommended us to try La Fagurida during our 5 day…read moretrip to Lake Como. The views were incredible. We dined during sunset and had a great view overlooking the town of Tremezzo. Since seating is mainly outdoors, I recommend applying bug spray upon arriving. Citronella candles given by staff helped to deter the mosquitos -- just one example of their kind and attentive service. Aside from the views, the food was amazing. The fish risotto was the fan favorite at our table but I would also highlight the braised beef as well! If you are looking for an authentic dining experience at fair prices and stunning views, you definitely need to add La Fagurida to your Lake Como itinerary.

The outdoor seating overlooked the lake and we were seated in a residential cobblestone alley - which added to the ambience. The staff is very friendly and didn't speak much English. We had caprese, a salad, a fresh pasta with rabbit ragu and this huge t bone steak. Everything was prepared excellently. Highly recommend if you're trying to get a more authentic experience than the big hotels.

Being here is a whole experience one must have while in Italy! My girlfriend and I came on a 10 day trip and stayed our last 3 days by Lake Como, we made a last minute reservation and took a train over and were amazed by the experience and food. The best meal we had on our trip by far. Try their wines, desserts are amazing. Man we are coming back again next Italy trip, might have to come to Italy just to experience Ristorante il Crotto. Non importa dove sei o dove stai andando, venire a mangiare qui è un must! Il servizio era incredibile e il cibo era spettacolare. Essere qui è un'intera esperienza che si deve fare mentre si è in Italia! Io e la mia ragazza siamo venuti in un viaggio di 10 giorni e abbiamo soggiornato i nostri ultimi 3 giorni sul Lago di Como, abbiamo fatto una prenotazione dell'ultimo minuto e abbiamo preso un treno e siamo rimasti stupiti dall'esperienza e dal cibo. Il miglior pasto che abbiamo fatto durante il nostro viaggio di gran lunga. Prova i loro vini, i dolci sono fantastici. Amico, torneremo di nuovo il prossimo viaggio in Italia, potremmo dover venire in Italia solo per provare il Ristorante il Crotto.

After strolling around the Duomo and the Galleria we looked for some lunch. We spotted this place -…read morestill having one of the few tables outside available (there's plenty of tables inside). Happy to have found a spot for lunch we ordered some drinks soon. Beer, a glass of red wine and some water. Service was pretty quick, but looked quite stressed / under pressure. We didn't check the reviews before coming here....maybe should have. Soon after we decided on the food: A Peperoni Pizza, Pasta with Speck and peas, Pasta with Porcini Mushrooms and Seafood Spaghetti. We just came back from a 5-week Road Trip in Italy and we've been spoilt with fantastic food and wonderful hosts. So let's see how this - touristy - place will hold up. And for the quick reader: Not too well! The Pizza was very basic. And there were really only about 4-5 very thin stripes (not slices) of Salami on it! A joke! The Pasta with Speck and peas never arrived....but got another pasta with Porcini instead. Happens, but not impressive. The Pasta with Porcini (which I actually ordered) were ok. Mushrooms tasted fine, pasta a bit overcooked. Seafood Spaghetti were pretty decent, tasted fresh enough. So, two meals ok so far, one wrong order and a pizza to forget. We didn't stay long yet, about 30mins when the service kept showing up every 2-3min. Asking if it all was ok and if we are finished yet. Well, some of our party-of-four clearly weren't. Leave us alone pls. This kept going on for about 10-15mins. Then a bald guy, probably the manager / host showed up. Asking us if we are finished yet. Still eating buddy....and he came back yet again, asking the same questions. We really felt pushed. Clearly they wanted us to leave, so they can serve the oh-so average food to some other lucky customers. Maybe they should put up a sign which says: Time-Limit 30 minutes! The food was barely ok, but edible. But together with the not-at-all Italian hospitality this place is best to be avoided. On our Road Trip we've had so many wonderful experiences...food-wise and concerning locals. But this here is so touristy...forget about it. The only other plus-point are the quite fair prices.
