The dishes are delicious - everything we've had there is absolutely delicious - except for the bread. Just accept that the bread is to scoop up the leftover sauce and don't expect more. That's the way it is done in this part of Italy. The wine selection is very nice. If you want to have a romantic meal with great food, good wine, and a good dessert to complete your meal, this is the place. Don't forget to make a reservation!

We visited in February and it was very quiet! The restaurant is beautiful and small as the name suggests. The food was delicious especially the wild boar lasagne! The wine menu is limited but all local which we loved!

The service was very poor. A table that arrived after us and ordered after us received both their starters and main courses before we even got our starters. It felt like because we came through The Fork, we received less attentive and less courteous service. The portions are extremely small, and the prices are not justified.

The food was great and the service was too except when we asked for the bill. We waited 40 minutes and in the end got up to go to the till to pay. We were really surprised the bill was not brought promptly as there were people waiting for a table.

Service is very good. Food is tasty and very rich but comes in rather small portion. Could have had more food variety. Carbonara is special, thanks.

Service, food all excellent. Limiter out door seating and it was a warm evening and would have been nice to sit outside. Pleasant ambiance inside if a little warm

Visited Cave Restaurant and Wine Bar while staying nearby in Desenzano. We had dinner as a family and really enjoyed the atmosphere – the cave‑style setting is unique and makes for a cosy evening. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and service was attentive without feeling rushed. The menu offered some good options, and the wine list was impressive with plenty of local choices. Food quality was decent overall – well‑presented and tasty, though a few dishes could have had a bit more depth of flavour for the price point. Overall, it was a pleasant evening and worth visiting for the setting and service, with food that we’d rate around 7/10. We’d recommend it for the experience, especially if you enjoy an interesting location with a good wine selection.

WE arrived with a booking at 21.30 after a long drive . The restaurant is set back from the chaos of the front - we were met with a smile and a pleasant Hello . WE chsoe a table outside - the extra effort was not a problem , we had a local red wine , the most AMAZING Carbonara we have ever tasted - the super lady chef ( the wife of the owner) makes it with passion and love .. just the best ... lovely people , Also , Make sure you take a bottle of thier Olive oil ... Olive Nectar ----

We came here three nights ago and we were so impressed that we came last night and tonight too! Wonderful food cooked by ‘my wife’ . A small menu and extraordinary fast service. I cannot recommend this place enough. The pork and the cheese and truffle pasta were highlights and the homemade tiramisu was outstanding. A succinct list of excellent wines just tops it off.
