Feel Como

Came on a friend’s recommendation and left satisfied. We did the Forest dinner tasting menu at 130 euros. I am gluten intolerant and they accommodated very well including a nice bread served warm. Aside from the mushroom amuse bouche the rest were good. My favorites dishes were the tempura and the hare which was a wonderful texture. The service was excellent and the chef also kindly came out to say hello. It was a nice cozy place with comfortable chairs and lighting where the table spacing makes it easy to have a conversation.

Spent a week on Bellagio, Lake Como and went into Como town once to eat here specifically. Such a special restaurant and experience. They made the tasting menu special for me because of my dietary preferences. The waiter was very attentive and the chef an artist. Definitely a special experience as the photos show the beautiful and delicious food.

This establishment truly epitomizes the pinnacle of our culinary journey. My wife and I experienced a romantic yet delectable evening here last night. Opting for two courses each, rather than samplers, we were delighted by the exceptional taste of every dish. The restaurant’s mastery in utilizing local produce and cuisine transported us to an idyllic hillside village, offering a truly unique experience that is quintessentially Como Lake.

For those looking for a fine dining experience experience, this restaurant does the trick. It’s not inexpensive but it is an enjoyable experience with great food - presentation and taste) and excellent, attentive service. Heater is very knowledgeable and manages to give personal attention to all of the tables. We had a lovely evening there. Thank you.

The Only Thing Worth Tasting Here Was the Bread. TLDR: Come here if you want to food that looks expensive. Avoid if you want food that tastes good. Below is a breakdown of what I ordered along with pictures and my thoughts on each element of the meal. Amuse-Bouche • Visually striking—I’ll give them that. But the cherries? All show, zero flavor. The “rice cracker with white dollops”? Supposed to be crunchy, but instead, flop and soggy, stale—so not good. And the mushroom concoction? Tasted like mushroom powder—dry, earthy, dirt-like. Definitely not appetizing. Main Courses • Faux Gras Ravioli: Served cold and the pasta was hard—not al dente, just unpleasantly rigid. Flavor? Like vomit, thanks to a bizarre strawberry pairing. • Sturgeon Dish: That gray cylinder looked neat—but tasted overly fishy, not fresh. And that green oil—maybe basil? Way too overpowering, just ruined it. • Red Pepper “Spaghetti” with Peppercorn Ash: Clearly not house-made—boiled-from-a-box quality pasta with acidic red pepper sauce reminiscent of jarred paste. Peppercorn ash? Visually interesting, but overall, just three flavors: red pepper sauce, plain pasta, and ash. Home-cookable in five minutes. • Duck Egg with Green Oil: The duck egg itself was actually decent. But that wasn’t made by the chef - it was thanks to the farmer who raised the duck. The chef strikes again with an intense celery-heavy green oil (basil? coriander?)—the balance was just off. Overpowering celery clashed with everything. Cheese Platter • Four out of five cheeses tasted like they’d gone bad (or maybe they were just too much rind?). The jam pairings? Random and nonsensical. Even if the cheese had actually been good, 30 euros for such a small quantity of cheese was way overpriced even for a “fancy” restaurant like this one tries to be. I didn’t take a picture of this but each piece of cheese was 2 inches by 0.5 inches by 0.5 inches. The Bread • The only redeeming moment: fresh bread studded with basil, tomato, and olives. Flavorful, satisfying, actual craftsmanship. It should have been the center of the menu—honestly. Not sure if it was made at this restaurant, more likely they purchased it from a nearby bakery. Service and Atmosphere • Service: Surprisingly decent. The waiter was actually funny. He was slurring his words and dropping things on the ground while walking around, but still a charming guy. • Atmosphere: Upscale but stuffy—overly dramatic spotlight lighting on food, total Instagram-bait. Tables are too close; you could hear every word from neighbors. Everyone whispered awkwardly. Chairs were not comfortable. They did provide a little hook for my wife’s purse which I thought was thoughtful.

We had a lovely dining experience here during our trip to Como. The service was exceptional, with the staff providing great insight into the history of the wines paired with each meal. The complimentary starters were a delightful touch, bursting with amazing flavours. For our entrée, we chose the gnocchi and ravioli. While the starters set a high standard, the pasta dishes didn’t quite meet our expectations in terms of flavour. My partner’s main course, the beef cheek, was delicious, but unfortunately, my duck breast was a bit tough, and the flavour didn’t quite come through. However, the apple pie we both had for dessert was absolutely incredible and the perfect end to our meal.

They offers a great fine dining experience. The food is amazing, with each dish full of flavor and beautifully prepared. Whether you choose pasta, steak, or seafood, you won’t be disappointed. The service is excellent. The staff are friendly, attentive, and make sure you have everything you need for a pleasant meal. Overall, Feel Como is a wonderful place for a special night out, with delicious food and top-notch service.

Dinner at Feel Como was an unforgettable culinary experience. When we we were heading to Feel Como we planned and expected to taste excellent food, but we got so much more! It was not only delicious, complex, unique dishes, it was the night of excellence and perfection in everything: atmosphere, ambiance, and service - absolutely everything was at the highest level. We opted for 3 course option and were able to sample 6 various dishes - all on which were phenomenal - creative, unconventional and memorable. Chef's partner was very knowledgeable about the dishes and wines, and her recommendations were on point. (Her knowledge of wine list and wine production was very impressive). The service was simply impeccable! Dishes came out at the perfect timing, our wine glasses were being refilled instantly. It was one of the best restaurant's experiences we have ever had! For us, dinner at Feel Como was a rare combination of passion for food, professionalism and excellence.

Wowowow. What a unique and splendid experience it was having the tasting menu and wine pairings for the winter menu. The chef feathers local ingredients for all of his creations, and the sommelier did a splendid job picking out the wines. This restaurant had one of my favorite bread courses ever, and all the dishes were quite adventurous. They combine trout with sweet syrup and somehow it works so well. And their rabbit kidney risotto was among my favorite of their dishes. The venison was cooked rare and to perfection with the sauces it was paired with. I've attacked pictures of my meal here. It was a beautiful experience. Definitely a wonderful spot for a romantic dinner; they only accommodate six tables per night, I think.

Faultless meal, from the service to the food everything was absolutely amazing. Precision cooking using local ingredients but not overly clever or fussy. Beautiful setting in a small, intimate dining room. I think there are only 5-6 tables, which just added to the feeling that we'd had a truly special culinary experience. I hope I can return!

We had one of the most authentic, adventurous, and cohesive dinners of our lives last night at Feel Como. The story told by the Forest menu was complimented by the explanation and pictures of them gathering all of the ingredients locally in the mountains surrounding Lake Como. Belisimosa!

A very intimate dining experience with excellent food and service. The spring forest theme was well executed with earthy, mushroom-y, herbal flavors interspersed throughout each dish. Expect to spend around 3 hours here. Well worth the money. I would come back again.

Of all the tasting menus that we have eaten over the years in the US and worldwide, this was the most unique and beautifully executed that we have ever experienced! The executive chef understands complexity and how the taste buds graduate from the basic to the most interesting. Bravo! It was a real treat to dine here! Grazie!

Had dinner last night and did the bigger 8-course tasting menu in a group of 6. Flavors and ingredients were very local, presentation was very nice, although they really go crazy on their powders and crumbles. The price was fair for the quantity and quality of the food. The sommelier made good recommendations and service was good, if not well refined. Definitely a memorable meal. This was a 5-Star experience but the food and service earned 4.5 and 4 stars respectively.

Wonderful food and service. They gave us each a mussel in a creamy celery sauce, served in a spoon to start. We then each had the risotto with truffles. The rice was Al dente, as it should be, and the truffles were plentiful. For dolce we shared an apple tatin with a scoop of gelato, followed by some of the best espresso we have had. A memorable meal and experience. Highly recomnended.

My wife and I discovered this wonderful restaurant whilst strolling through the streets of Como and were immediately intrigued by the fascinating menu. We were not disappointed. We were immediately welcomed (without reservation) and presented with a preview from the chef, from which on we knew we were in for a treat. Our appetizer of beef tongue and mashed white bean was delicious, with the olive oil gelato garnish as an absolute highlight! Our main courses of stuffed rabbit (with a beautiful rosemary foam) and black truffle crusted beef rump were no less impressive. The beef was cooked to perfection and the rabbit melted in my mouth. Even the bread basket and butter were spectacular. The wait staff were also remarkable, attentive and never invasive or persistent. A recommended wine pairing to fit our taste and budget was a delightful accent to our meal. From the ambience, to the presentation, to the service and the quality of the food, we left feeling thoroughly enchanted. Thank you for a superb dining experience!

My wife and I both had the four course tasting menu. Not only were the eight courses each different, the were all both delicious and beautiful, and the service was uncanny. Like mind reading levels of responsiveness. This currently stands as the pinnacle experience in a vacation full of fine dining.
