We would have never found this place without directions, but it was worth the search. Between four of us we had three pasta dishes and three entrees. Two and two would have been sufficient, but everything sounded good. It all tasted as good as it sounded. The wine selections were the best we’ve seen in northern Italy. In addition the wine prices were among the most reasonable we saw at restaurants during our whole time here.

The restaurant portion is on the second level, small place but it was absolutely packed. There were no empty tables yet we didn’t have to wait. I got the saffron Risotto, and my husband got the pasta with mushrooms. They were both delicious, portions were right. There was a cover charge — I believe it was around 2 Euros. The bathroom is very clean and the décor is super interesting. We got the house cab in .5L and that was very tasty as well. So 2 entrees + .5L wine ended up being around 27 Euros. Not bad for the pricey Como area.

Très bonne adresse. Accueil courtois. Carte claire et plats goûteux. Nous avons notamment pris des gnocchis au beurre de sauge et un ossobuco. Addition très correcte pour une ville qui semble chère. Une visite s’impose pour un séjour à Côme.

Bean soup, pork shank, sorbetto — with house wine, a warmly welcoming atmosphere and very reasonable bill

Excellent soup, risotto and pasta. The strawberry cheesecake(did I mention that we’re in Italy here?) was superb. Waiter was very friendly and attentive, not pushy. Unlike the other reviewer, we had an excellent time throughout!

On our first evening in Como we had dinner at Ristorante Sociale, a recommendation from the concierge at the hotel. It was ok but nothing special and the steak was a disappointment. We had some warm starters which were the best thing of what we ordered besides the wine of course. The pomodoro pasta was decent. The steak was cooked well-done even though we asked for medium and the red wine sauce was not good. The tiramisu was yummy so at least a good ending. And with wine, even thought I wont claim to be any expert, it was a decent meal but not worth going back for. Look for a different restaurant in Como, this one wasn’t spectacular or even good for Italian standards…
