Great the idea of having the tour at the beginning, we loved to learn a bit about the history of the restaurant. Nice ambiance! Service was too slow we waited over 45 minutes between our appetizer and the primo piatto. We sit at 7.30pm we left at 11pm without finish the dessert since our time was over. (We ordered only 3 dishes!) The Morone (fish) was way too salty.. we eat only half of that

+6Stunning visit. Attention to detail was fist class from arrival and a kitchen and wine cellar tour. The food and service was amazing and the terrace where we were seated was perfect.

5.5/10Food just did not make the mark. Nothing stood out. We have been few Michelin star places and loved paying for the experience - especially as the food and service were worth it. We did not feel La Speranzina was worth it. The atmosphere was lovely and the setting and music was very romantic which I have reflected in the review. However, ultimately I would say is there is a lot of amazing food places nearby where the food was a lot more memorable and better value.

1)really distasteful to allow dog - neighbor table in the midst our dinner 2) Lamb meet served raw and too many flavors mixed in the dish made the dishes unplatable. 3) main fish- nice fish but too much side dishes even known by server 4) wine recommendation was very good.

10/10Impressed with this restaurant from the moment we entered and our gracious host gave us a wonderful tour of the kitchen and wine cellar. The views from our table overlooking beautiful Lake Garda were amazing. The food was sublime and service was excellent. Highly recommend to anyone interested in an extraordinary dining experience.

10/10we have discovered a great restaurant and highly recommend reading its dishes, which evoke. amazing taste impressions. The chef very subtly combines ingredients and reveals them to us in a new way. The wine list will satisfy any desire. The views of Lake Garda are unforgettable. Hospitality and Service at a high level. Special respect to the Owner for the idea and concept and hospitality!!! 👍

The memory of visiting the restaurant will stay with us forever! One of the best dinners we have ever had! The quality of the food deserves a Michelin star, which is awarded to the restaurant. The service is beyond praise. We loved the design and the New Year's atmosphere inside. We were welcomed as very important guests and were given a tour of the restaurant. We saw the kitchen, wine cellar and event rooms. The courtyard is also very beautiful! On New Year's Day, many restaurants were not open, but this restaurant was! It turned out they were open on purpose as we had pre-booked a table. Our family was alone in the restaurant. Everything was very tasty, the wine was excellent and so was the service. Our requests were honoured. It was a little awkward that so many people came out to work on a public holiday for our dinner! All of this made our family holiday dinner a great and unforgettable experience! A huge thank you and admiration to all the staff and owners of the restaurant!

10/10The entire experience was wonderful, starting with the tour of the kitchen and wine cellar, We had the 4 course tasting menu and it was exquisite. The presentation, the full explanation of each dish, and of course the flavors were all outstanding. It was a very memorable experience. The highlight of our stay in Sirmione.

This is a great place for lunch if the weather is cooperating. The views are great, the staff is wonderful, and the food is creative, well executed and priced accordingly. My only issue I have with management is the fact that they denied me a month tea at the end of our meal because they had closed their lunch service. Once you are seated, you have to continue service to your patron, or you let them know in advance you are closing the kitchen in case there are any extra inquiries. A Michelin starred restaurant doesn't do that to their clients.

10/10One of the finest and most refined meals we have ever had. My wife was thoroughly impressed and she is not easily impressed. The flavors were intricate, thoughtful, masterfully prepared and delicious. We would return to Sermione just to eat at La Speranzina again. A true culinary masterpiece.

We usually dine once a year in this restaurant. This year the new Chef has done an amazing improvement compared to last year. En route for a second Michelin Macaron?

Such kind and hospitable people running this beautiful restaurant, with postcard views of Lake Garda. Normally great views and great food don’t go together, but here, they do. This chef has mastered not only the fine craft of truly delicious cooking, but each plate and presentation is truly a work of art. The reactions to my Instagram photos was incredible! So be sure to add this to your “must do” list in Sirmione.

Everything was amazing - the food and the view. I would just speed up the service a bit as 4-courses lunch took approximately 2 hours and the waiting is a bit exhausting for me, otherwise - all is perfect and thank you for the excursion and exceptional view.

7/10Food was just Ok. Wine pairing was way overpriced (like 350 plus per couple) with literally baby pours of ok wine and two of the pairings were beers?!? Most of all WAY TOO SLOW. we’ve done several Mich star and this one was FOUR hours with sometimes 45 mins between courses. Bill was 800$. Pretty disappointing for the price.

The food was great , vast array of wonderful tastes . From the Morrone fish to the fantastic starters ,all excellent. However what made it for us was the staff. My father forgot his reading glasses and they noticed him straining. 1 min later there were a pair of reading glasses on a tray beside him and to top it off they worked for him.

10/10Amazing food and wine. Really recommend the 4,6 or 8 courses with the wine pairing. They really know their stuff! The service was superb, everyone in the staff was really nice and made us feel welcome. The only minus is that it was allowed to smoke by the tables outside, which I know is allowed in Italy. But when the food is soo good, well prepared and amazing quality the taste shouldn’t be impaired by the smoke fumes. (Just my opinion, it’s probably because I’m a swede.) Anyway, thank you for an amazing night! 10/10!

6.5/10Underwhelming for a Michelin star restaurant. Service was uneven, rushed at the beginning and way too slow at the end. Menu does not reflect what was shown online. Overall disappointing for the cost and time required.

+1Michelin Star Well Deserved! Found this place on Trip Advisor. Waiter showed us around several rooms which offer areas for different events, their impeccably clean kitchen and vast wine cellar. Service was fantastic, with great food and decent portion sizes (not typical of a Michelin Star). My only comment is that menu on Trip Advisor should be updated as dishes have changed and so has the price scheme. Thank you to all staff :)

10/10Outstanding food. We had the tasting menu, and each course was a little masterpiece. The ambience was outstanding too: on a raised terrace above the water with a view across the wide lake, and at one side the top of the town’s medieval defensive tower. Immaculate service. This perfection comes at a price but we consider this memorable meal was well worth it
