Amazing food in a nice atmosphere and a heartwarming welcome. My pregnant wife and I were delighted by the nice staff, which gave us their congratulations and a warm welcome. We felt immediately at home and felt very comfortable. The food was great and not as expensive as down at the lakeside.

Very good and authentic food, especially the risotto milanese was delicious. Service was friendly and fast, and the prices are justified and similar to other restaurants in the area. The terrace is covered well, so it’s comfortable to sit outside even if it’s raining or a bit chilly.
