“ We had a lovelly time there. Service is great and polite. It was plesure to simply sit there, drink good house wine and don't worry. Bows for grill-service guy for his tallent. Verry good value for money. Tip 1: one side dish is enough ;) Tip2: wear long sleves and trousers, cause there is lots of moskitos in the garden. However crew provided us with repelents and special candels, so it was ok after that. ”
“ If you are in Lugano, this is a MUST!! The waiter explained us the whole menu as we did not understand Italian and gave us great recommendations. I have visited over 120 European restaurants in the last year, never have I had a better Antipasti before Thank you for an attentive service, amazing food and a super local ambience! We will come back! ”
“ Cute area of Lugano, with some original grotto-style restaurants (though they have since expanded from their grotto origins and the dining area isn't actually in a grotto). Had some fresh pasta with a creamy topping, and wife had some even tastier pasta with pesto (can't remember all the names!) But among our party of eight, four people had the beef ribs - 'costine' - which were made in an open fire grill. My aunt let me try a piece - man, I should have ordered them, they were amazing! ”
