    We were celebrating a marriage proposal. The staff arranged champagne and flowers for the bride to be at our request. The service was very attractive. The food was excellent with the duck dish being everyone’s favourite.

    We had an amazing dinner again, Lester and the manager provided an excellent service. Besides they have a very kind personality as well. Unfortunately we are leaving, but when we come back next time we will definitely eat here! So overall, everything was super delicious, excellent environment and service so I would advice this place a thousand times!🫶🏻

    Really excellent, I di though suggest you try the 39eu menu of 7 dishes with 2 glasses of wine! That service though, was very long, nearly 3 hours. Our a la carte menu, with 3 courses, and one bottle of wine, was 190eu, had to take some food home!

    Delicious food with good service in a tranquil ambient. The only negative point is the price, way too expensive.

    This is the restaurant of the Hotel. The interior is nice and clean but a bit old-fashioned. The major problem is that we could not sit outside because the tables outside were right along a road with heavy traffic. Busses etc. This is not convenient. However: The food was EXCEPTIONAL!!! We loved it and would come back any time!

    This restaurant situated in the Hotel Barchetta Excelsior was a great find. The food was high quality and very tasty. This was matched by the excellent service provided by the staff. Our meal was unhurried and we thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience.

    Nice place, well presented food. But…good carpaccio ruined by very acidic red onion. If it was to complement, it did opposite, and «killed» meat flavour. The other meat was tender and well tasting. Could have wished for some more sauce…but grilled vegetables were good also. All in all, would recommend.

    Fabulous Lake Como tasting menu with the perch risotto alla Comasca. Not cheap, but worth the upper mid-range price. Staff very pleasant and professional.

    Enjoyed the delicious octopus appetizer and the asparagus dish was excellent. My husband ordered the spaghetti with clams (vongole). It was described on the menu as spaghetti with giant clams but came with these tiny Manila clams so it was kinda misleading, so they need to correct the description. Other than that, My husband enjoyed it and was fully satisfied with it. the ravioli filled with prawns was a great choice. Food Presentation and portions were just perfect as well as the wait staff. To top it off, got a 20% discount by reservation thru the Fork. Thank you!

    The quality of the food is very good, but I think that the service is relatively slow even though there were few people in the restaurant and plenty of waiters.
