"Not a warm welcome. We ordered 4 pizzas and the restaurant owner sighed. Honey goat cheese pizza, without goat cheese and without honey without any word from the cook/server. Otherwise pizza not bad but good"

"Recommended by our hotel this Osteria serves good local food in a pleasant though not picturesque setting. It is a family owned establishment with Mama doing the cooking on the evening of our visit. There was a good range of dishes, including local speciailities and a sizeable and good wine list. It is difficult to find (do not rely on the map on the business card issued to the hotels) but if you stick as close as possible to the lake side of the railway you should find it easily enough."

"In general they have a variety of fresh-made ice creams, with flavours ranging from the conventional to some more experimental ones, these can change from day to day. and are always worthwile tasting. The ice cream has a great texture, creamy, with a good melt....You can buy your ice on the go, but there are both inside and outside sitting areas (but the décor is not really great)."
