After having this the second day in a row, I'd say that dark chocolate pairs best with pistachio. I…read moretried strawberry with dark chocolate today--it was ok but not as nice. Lemon is tart and not overly sweet but raspberry was just ok... something off with the taste. Don't follow the gps--it's in the mall near HM on floor 1 (second level). Found out there's one after security at MXP airport, so if you miss out, one last chance!

Oh mamma mia! Gelato, gelato and more gelato. This place is JUST amazing…read more After a whole day of walking, running around, fitting room after fitting room, store after store and after having a great slice of pizza at Alice Pizzeria in the mall, guess what? There's always room for dessert, especially if it starts with "g" and ends in "o": G-E-L-A-T-O! We decided to get fancy and do our "merendina" (snack) and sit down with our group of friends and order directly from their menu. The kind gelato waitress came by and took our order, we were about 6 adults and 5 kids. These guys had so much patience and brought out our orders with a big warm smile and delicious gelato for all. I ordered a custom gelato cup with pistacchio (MUST TRY) and nocciola flavors. The gelato was so fresh and creamy and melted right in your mouth. As I write this, it's making me want more! Our friends ordered gelato filled crepes, gelato topped waffles mad right in the moment, gelato cones, bowls and all the good stuff. Everything was delicious and it definitely was worth it. The prices were a little more than your average cup of gelato. If you feel like indulging and spoiling yourself, this is the place to do it! Bottom line: go get your gelato, now! :)

My friends and I were walking down the main street of Como when we stumbled upon this storefront…read more We were craving gelato, and from some of the signs on their windows, it seemed like they've received awards in the past, so we gave it a try. I ordered the Nocciola (hazelnut) and pistachio gelati in a cone. It was absolutely wonderful and delicious. I'm glad to have tried my first authentic Italian gelato here! Although you can buy gelato straight from the window at the storefront, it took a few minutes before one of the workers noticed we were trying to buy gelato. From the outside, it looked like they had a bar and their website says they also serve pastries and brunch. We were able to pay with card, so don't fret if you don't have any euros on you! - You'll still be able to enjoy some delicious desserts from here!

We had about an hour to kill in Lake Como before we had to meet our tour group. Lucky for us,…read moreL'Ambrosiano happened to be across the street from our meeting point. It also couldn't have looked more inviting. We chose to sit outside and enjoy the fresh air. It wasn't a sunny day but the outdoor seating did provide shelter from the misty rain. The waiter took our order (one Valtellinese pizza) and shortly our food arrived. I found it a nice touch that the kitchen split the pizza in half so we could share it easily. We were also given plates and silverware. L'Ambrosiano is no ordinary cafe. It's a bit classier. The pizza was delicious and covered amply in braseola and mushrooms. The sauce was slightly sweet and brought the whole pizza together. I did enjoy eating my pizza with a fork and knife, a far cry from folding it in half and eating with hands New York style. What a great way to enjoy Como. It topped off our morning of silk scarves, cloud bread, gardens, and farmers markets.

The food here is great. Pizza was more expensive here than other places and tasted fantastic, but…read morenot more so than any of the other pizza places I ate at. The spicy salami was actually spicy and was extra crisped which is actually how I prefer it. The bruschetta was very good and big portion. I give it three stars because it's more expensive than any other pizza I ate in Italy and there was nothing to justify that - the food was simple nothing fancy, it was not memorable, and I wouldn't go back.

We had ordered coffees which were very bitter (almost tasted burnt) and the service was super slow. We also ordered a donut (not cream filled) - we liked the mild lemon flavor to it but felt there was way too much sugar on it. I tried scraping some of the sugar off to put in the coffee to cut the bitterness but even that didn't help. Would recommend stopping somewhere else instead!
