    The food was fantastic atmosphere was great and the views were simply stunning. We decided to come here as it was my wife's birthday and we couldn't have picked a better place to go. Would thoroughly recommend it.

    Harborside setting. Classical guitar player on "street". Very friendly and efficient service. Best tasting beef carpaccio i have had and large portion split for 2. Thought they gave us a double order. Delicious. Both paccheri with hazelnut pesto and bigoli sarde were hot and delicious. Complementary grappa and limoncello at end of meal. Close tables may lead to conversations with your neighbors. Recommended.

    The food, the view, the service were all amazing. We ordered some seafood. Although the seafood was fresh, the prawn didn’t have a lot of meat which is the only reason I’m giving the food four stars. The staff was super attentive and friendly. They gave us each a glass of proseco while waiting for our table which was a nice touch. The restaurant is right on the water so as you can imagine, we had an unobstructed view of the lake and the mountains

    Everything was delicious. The food was incredible and service was great. There was a group of people sitting next to us who were very loud and it was hard to speak to my partner. Not the restaurant fault but I wish they had asked them to quiet down a bit. Tables around us looked very annoyed with them too but we were so close, they kept getting up and hitting my chair with their chair. Other than that the view was great, food great and service great.

    Our experience at La Pace was outstanding. We were seated immediately at a lovely table facing the sea. Delicious bread and focaccia was brought to our table along with sparkling wine. The fish and seafood pasta were fresh and delicious. The service was impeccable and continued through complementary dessert and cocktails . I would highly recommend this restaurant.

    Incredible food and wonderful service- the setting is superb too. Such a peaceful little square and a little off the beaten track so not overly busy. Perfection!

    Food was excellent. 5 star. Service is slow even by Italian standards. Waited for deserts for more than 35 minutes.

    Our meals were delivered separately and 10 mins apart. My Pasta (tag, mushroom / truffle sauce) was disappointing, didn’t feel freshly cooked with it arriving so quickly, lacking any real flavour and mushrooms were slimy / no texture. Wife’s pizza was tho much better. Staff however stopped serving for 45 mins to reorganise tables due to weather resulting in long waits for everyone. In end as staff didn’t offer follow ups we gave up on desert / coffee and left. Shame as had been good on last years visit. The poor weather had benn forecast too so shouldn’t have been a surprise.

    Food and service were great. Only issue is we booked using The Fork app but the restaurant didn't even acknowledge our booking, in fact it was as if they just found us any table and sat us there... no reservation on the table. .

    All went well but the 20% discount promised by Fork was not honoured by the restaurant. I don’t know if this is the fault of Fork or the restaurant.

    A diamond in a lake of pearls. The food at the Ristorante La Pace is exceptional, the staff could not have been any friendlier and helpful nothing was to much trouble. The ambience was so relaxed and the location with the lake lapping against the shore could not be any more idyllic. The fish dishes we sought out from the menu were impeccable and so flavoursome . I thought the tuna carpaccio was one of the best dishes I have had anywhere. A simply wonderful experience from start to finish . Thank you for a lovely evening.

    We enjoyed everything about our experience, but above all we will remember the delightful attentiveness of the staff.

    Perfect location, looking out on the lake. Food was delicious. The best thing though was the service - so friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed it so much we returned three nights in a row!

    We enjoyed a friends special birthday meal. The staff were so friendly and the service was excellent. The restaurant is set in a beautiful plaza and right in the waters edge. We all had beautiful wine and all pleased with our food. Definitely recommend. Really comfy chairs too!!

    The food is really good and the portions are very big. The owner gave us a very nice table and everybody was super nice. They gave us limoncello shots at the end.

    This was our 3rd meal at La Pace. The food has been very good on each occasion. The staff are efficient, friendly and relaxed. The chicken Caesar salad is delicious, Seabass exceptional and ravioli perfect. The setting is nice with a view of the lake in a small piazza. The area is busy and sometimes you have to wait for a table for about 10 minutes or so. We had booked online and as a table wasn’t ready (we were early) we were given a Prosecco whist we waited. It’s a fail safe option for a good atmosphere and a really good meal.

    Food was good, especially the pizzas. Service was attentive and quick but almost in a rush. Clearing plates from the table before everyone was finished. Plenty of people waiting to be seated so it makes sense but you got the feeling they wanted you on your way…

    The restaurant was really good, we had the grilled fish mix (for 2 people). It was not expensive, considering everything was really fresh and cooked to perfection. I highly recommend visiting La Pace if you find yourself in Malcesine.
