We wanted to like Mistral so much more than we did! First, the good. The servers are so attentive. They do their jobs very well. And they’re kind, friendly , and approachable. And the rest…The tasting menu was expensive and should have been out of this world- given the location and clientele. But instead it was just good. Like a nice upscale restaurant anywhere.. nice but unremarkable. The wine pairings were also unremarkable unfortunately… we couldn’t find a great one in the mix. And the dessert was just good too. Not bad by any means… but still unremarkable. And the backdrop was disappointing— the lights are turned on too high so you cannot see outside to the lake.

The best restaurant on the peninsula by far. Not for the value but for the taste, the service, ambience and people watching. My entree was HARE-so unique so delicious. The venue was full and the service never challenged.

Service was good but the atmosphere was awkward and the food was so bland and so expensive. At least the wine was exceptional and reasonable.

Food was good but priced high. Service was not a 10/10 and they charged you for champagne they served when you sat down.

Both the service and food were outstanding - every course. We went a la carte, but made some great choices. The liquid nitrogen ice cream was unlike any experience we’ve ever had. Filming it was a must. It turned a lot of heads in the restaurant.

Food is really underwhelming. They try hard to impress but nothing really tasted great. Also doing lamb brains as one of the lamb preparations is just unnecessary. It didn’t taste good and is just a weird dish to serve. Table service was very mixed. Didn’t offer us to drinks on time we sat there with empty glasses for like 15 mins. The entire dinner our table was full of bread crumbs and other stuff they didn’t clean. All of this was 700 euros and not worth it

The food and service was spectacular. We had the spaghetti with lobster and it was so delicious! The wine selection was great! We had a bottle of 2004 Cannubi Barolo and it did not disappoint!

I wonder how this restaurant holds its rating. Waste of money. We had the degustation menu none of the serving will impress and the ambience is cold even in this stunning venue.

My wife and I were celebrating our 25 years of marriage in Lake Como and selected Mistral for our anniversary dinner. Initially we were coldly received by Omar, the maitre d’, who escorted us to a less than favorable table. But once seated the wait staff was incredible, they were charming, attentive and helpful. Hector and Igor created a memorable evening and wonderful experience for my wife and me. The food is amazing and the location superb

The tasting menu was incredibly disappointing and extremely overpriced. It was an outdated menu that seemed to be guessing at what Americans view as gourmet rather than preparing quality tasty food. Do not order the tasting menu.

We had an absolutely delightful dining experience at this restaurant! The 7-course meal was a culinary journey that left my taste buds dancing with joy. Each course was expertly crafted, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. The location added to the charm, providing a picturesque backdrop to the exquisite meal. The restaurant is located in a wonderful place, which is the most popular place in Como Lake. A true gem for any food lover seeking a memorable gastronomic adventure. Highly recommended!

Perhaps the best overall meal and service we’ve had at any of the many Michelin starred restaurants we have enjoyed over the last 20 years! The food, ambiance and attention to detail were second to none!

Mistral was a dining experience unlike any other I’ve had before. The sampling menu was an exploration of taste and presentation by a master. The delicacy of each item was exquisite. I would enjoy going back to try some of his more traditional offerings as well. I’m sure they’re extraordinary!

Our second time visiting a restaurant of this caliber was exactly as we expected. This opulent location, fascinating surprise menu, and delicate attention to every minute detail made for an evening we will never forget. The staff was firstly polite, and secondly helpful. We discovered new ways to appreciate our food and the wine with which it was paired. Furthermore, a restaurant of this caliber carries such a reputation that disappointment shall never occur for a customer. In this case, we felt welcomed and that our tailored interactions were meaningful and their reputation as an elite eatery was upheld to the highest standard. Bravo.

Views, service and wine selection were first rate. Food was third rate for the price. Will not return. At this price point, it should all be perfect. No wonder they lost their Michelin star.

Loved their attentiveness. And the server was also very helpful with suggestions to ensure that we ordered enough (the Goldilocks type of enough). Pleasant evening out around Bellagio. Would have been better if the restaurant had thought of opening the doors to let cool air in before admitting guests into what felt like a furnace in the restaurant (the glasshouse effect).

Wine list was good and prices reasonable but I would caution against starting off with a sparkling before our meal as the two glasses ( not the whole bottle) was €70. Nevertheless the wine recommended by the sommelier was very good and the food was amazing as was the ambience.

Expected better food for a Michelin restaurant. A lot of formalities and protocols but I was left unimpressed by the food. Have had much better at others The Grand Hotel was beautiful.

As a michelin star restaurant, expectations are high and they met/or exceeded them in many areas. The location is phenomenal, the service was impeccable, and the food was creative and memorable; it also tasted delicious. Big fan of this restaurant! Worth the price!

Our dining experience at Mistral was nothing short of impeccable from start to finish. The food truly tantalised our palates, the Sommelier’s wine recommendations were delicious, the service was outstanding and the excellent pianist on the grand piano set the scene perfectly. We particularly enjoyed the spectacle and showmanship of having ice cream made at the table with liquid nitrogen! Indulging ourselves on holiday the previous evening, we also tried the tasting menu at La Terrazza Gualtiero Marchesi at the Grand Hotel Tremezzo. Mistral significantly set itself apart from the competition and we were very glad to have saved the best for last. Thank you to all of the wonderful staff for making Lara’s birthday so special.
