    Had lunch here. Seated at veranda first floor with view of the lake. Pleasant staff and excellent food.

    7.5/10

    The restaurant resides on an island so you have to arrive with a boat, a ride that takes 5 min, which was very well coordinated by the restaurant. It was not the season so when we arrived place was a bit empty but in fact it made the dinner with the music playing even more romantic. We had a table not exactly with a lake view even though I asked it in reservation. Service was excellent, friendly and efficient. Menu has enough options, and food appearance is great. Tastes are good but not great. I think that the adventure of eating in an island with a boat coming and taking you back at dark makes the effect most of all. So in summary we had a great time.

    Stunning little restaurant. If you have fussy eaters beware as the menu is quite niche. My husband struggled to find something to eat but I was in my element! We went as a group of 6 and had a fantastic evening. Water taxis were very simple to sort as well. The island is gorgeous and if you go at sunset you will get some incredible photos.

    Very good restaurant, with nice view and great service. Food is good and not too pretentious. I suggest to go in the terrace at first floor instead of ground floor as the view is better!

    Great views of the lake. Went for lunch and arrived early, so managed to get a nice table with a view. The pricing is very reasonable for the quality of the food. Generous portions and good vegetarian options. The staff were friendly and service was attentive. Would recommend getting there earlier or reserving if you want a table with lake view. Reasonable pricing on the wines as well

    This little restaurant was a precious find! The staff were welcoming and service was superb. We really liked the small details, like how dishes were presented, the beautiful view and the soft music around us. Perfect for couples and for anyone who wants to catch particular atmosphere!

    We had an amazing experience here! Good food and great service. It was rainy but even inside we had a lovely evening in a nice ambiance. Going here again on our last holiday evening this week, a ‘must visit’ restaurant on the beautiful Isola Bella.

    This was our second time at this restaurant, this time for a birthday lunch. The food is delicious, cooked to perfection and with fresh, high quality ingredients. The view and atmosphere is unique also due to it's Isola Bella location on Lake Maggiore.

    A joy, perfect setting, lovely food and friendly, efficient service! Definitely worth a visit, you'll need to take a boat taxi to the Isola Bella, which is also most enjoyable. Benissimo :)

    A great restaurant in Isola Bella with 5 start service. Great service starts when you are contacted by Flora to book your boat to the Island (a mere €5 return trip per guest). The boat docks right in front of the restaurant and we were brought to a table in the first floor with an incredible view. Service matches many 5 stars hotels and it's surpassed when we are invited to move to a better table that was just made available. This was by far the best meal and service we had during our short trip to Lago Maggiore. Last but not least, Isola Bella is packed with tourists all year long. We arrived at 19h30 and there was nobody there. We took the opportunity to take the best pictures on the empty Island!

    We had a romantic dinner with a beautiful view and in the company of cute little birds who perched on the railing nearby. The food was delicious and the portions generous. We stayed on the Isola Bella and this dining experience was certainly the highlight. We will be back.

    Beautiful place in Isola Bella with an enchanting atmosphere. The service was top and the food of the best quality. Small but very varied menu. Excellent local and sea fish and really good meat dishes. A spot not to miss whenever you are in the area.

    Lovely setting and we had a lovely table looking over the lake as requested. The food was good particularly the desserts, we had marinated pineapple with Passion fruit sorbet and the semifreddo which were both excellent. Also recommend the fried perch. Service was good too.

    The food was very tasty, the ingredients had a very good quality and nice recipes were offered. We came earlier than planned and our table was set in less than 7 minutes. The personnel was very friendly and took good care of us. We sat at the terrace and the view and atmosphere were beautiful.

    Food very nice. Although the fried local fish with roasted potatoes was very bland. They even fried the fresh veg. You get an amuse bouche and bread which you are not charged for but if you think the Procecco they serve you as soon as you sit down is free then think again as it will cost you €10. The taxi back to mainland is free though.

    Beautiful meal on the terrace with two children. The beautiful views made it seem like a romantic dinner for two. Amazing food, wonderful service, make sure to try the creme di lemoncello: )

    Went with kids. A wonderful experience. They offer a water taxi service which is included in the meal price. This is not clearly advertised on their website. If you way the best view, Ask for an outside table. The food was delicately prepared and served. If this is the forst time on Isola Bella, the visit should ve combined with a your of the Island before dinner. The construction and landscaping is stunning!
