The experience was truly outstanding. I cannot say enough about the service, the team, the care, the place, the food. No wonder why this is a Michelin start restaurant, it is an unbelievable experience. The chef was amazing, and very kind.

É stata un' esperienza unica anche per me che non frequento spessissimo ristoranti stellati. Il personale era gentile e sempre disponibile ad ogni evenienza e molto attento. I piatti offrivano una varietà di sapori notevoli dalle note acide ai sapori che ricordano la tradizione presentati in maniera innovativa. L' ambiente molto accogliente e la vista lago era garantita a tutti. Lo consiglierei.

Esperienza da ripetere in estate perché oggi pioggia e nebbia hanno offuscato la bellezza del paesaggio. Cibo buono e accoglienza cortese e attenta.

This place is top notch. The treatment you receive since you walk in is better than most places I have ever been to. Everyone who works there is very well mannered and is always looking to make your experience great. The food was very good, the views are amazing. I have no bad comments about this place.
