Absolutely wonderful! A must do if you are in the area! As you dine you over look a charming garden were most of the ingredients are grown. Also they only use organic flower. We ate there last night which was our first night of three in the area and will be returning again for at least one more meal.

Interesting excursion if you like sitting in somebody's back garden eating sloppy pizza. House red wine was good. Service was friendly but there were only 2 couples dining when we were there. Having the neighbour mowing the back lawn the whole time we were sitting there didn't help.

It truly lives up to it's reputation as the best pizza in Lake Como. The pizzeria is out of the way, and a little hike by foot, but it's well worth it!

We decided to eat here one night during our stay in Tremezzo after reading so many good reviews. The restaurant is situated a short walk up the hill behind the Tremezzo main stretch. This almost looks like someone's home lovingly transformed into an eating establishment. There were a good selection of pizza's to choose from that we just had to... More

This restaurant was recommended by several travel reviews including Trip Advisor, but we found it to be reallu overpriced. 12.50 euros for a pizza compared to 6 or 7 euros at other Lake Como restaurants. In addition to a 20-25 minute walk uphill from our hotel, the restaurant offers no scenic view and even adds a 2 euro pp coperto... More

It was a rainy afternoon when we decided to take a walk in the hills above Tremezzo. I remember it wonderfully clearly like it was yesterday. (A year and 8 months ago). As we climbed it started to lightning and thunder and there was Balonett. We entered just before it began to pour. We were greeted by Franca and seated... More

Best caprese salad, carpaccio & pizza I've ever had in Italy. Desserts were also very good. Everything was fresh and homemade, even the ice cream. It's a must to eat at while in the area. Everyone was extremely friendly. Restaurant is very cozy located in a quite lovely town. Credit cards are not excepted. Cash only.
