10/10Excellent food with outstanding and unique wine pairing … the infusion bong with fennel and licorice was a nice way to end your dining experience.

10/10We have eaten in many michelin restaurants all over the world and I Due Sud rates in the top three. Wonderful talented chef - surely a 2 star is beckoning!

9.5/10The restaurant is very nice, classic interior. The food was really good but the it took 3 hours to serve 7 course menu - in my opinion it is too much, sometimes the pause between courses was up to 20-25 min. The service was overall ok, a couple of times I had the water glass empty and the bottle far away.

10/10This experience was remarkable from start to finish. The service was impeccable, the food was creative and unbelievably delicious, and the ambience on the lake front is perfect. Highlights were the octopus appetizer (superbly well balanced), focaccia with tomato sauce (melted in the mouth, bursting with flavor), and the most exquisitely simple but luscious pasta dressed subtly with light tomato sauce. Chamomile tea in a siphon-style percolator was a beautiful bit of theater in between the main courses and dessert courses and the perfect non-alcoholic digestif. I would highly recommend this restaurant in all respects. Our favorite experience while in Europe (out of four different Michelin star-ranked restaurants).

10/10Virtually everything about this place was perfect. Not only was the service fantastic. The staff were friendly and playful.Just the way. A fine dining experience should be. Why they only have one michelin star is a mystery to me. Much more Enjoyable then our experience at a threestar restaurant in Munich last year.

10/10First time here and really impressed. Great food and service. We highly recommend and will go again. There’s a lot of food and the portion sizes could be smaller to reduce waste.

7.5/10Small restaurant, only 7 tables but two tables are not well placed (no view, near the entrance and very noisy). Good service and good food. Interesting selection of wine.

5.5/10No pepper, no salt, no taste. Really disappointing so that we left after the third course. The wine menu was also very poor for both quality and quantity. All in all a very expensive experience that we can‘t recommend.

9.5/10Very creative menu and impeccable service. A must for those visiting Lugano! The variation of dishes was amazing and we really appreciated having a vegetarian menu, something more upscale restaurants should be doing these days!

10/10The ambience is superb and the service impeccable. The food is delicious and well presented. The wine pairing is totally worth it. The only little disappointment were the tiny portions, I was expecting at least the main entry to be a bit bigger than two bites.
