Grottino Ticinese

The service is very forthcoming and warm. The came by and gave us blankets when we felt a bit cold outside. The food is local and the risotto is the best and creamiest I've ever had!

The horse meat is tender and juicy. It was my first time trying it. So I was not used to the smell and taste. Gnocchi was really buttery.

Nice atmosphere and super friendly staff. The dishes were fine but not great. One of the dishes was quite dry with no sauce. Price was reasonable.

The food there is truly amazing. 2nd time and still no disapointment. Steaks are cooked perfectly (to your liking) and the risotto is very intense. Every sunday you can eat marvellous rabbit there.

Typical ticinese grotto, reservation is appreciated, as is well frequented, parking is near, so you will have the chance to discover the ticinesi speciality.

Location and food is great and the service is very friendly.

Pretty good. Lots of traditional dishes. Wonderful service and charming old building, interior and exterior. We had risotto funghi, insalate verdi, minestrone. All just fine. Nothing to rave about but perfectly acceptable. Very friendly place.

What a find! Exceptional experience. We were the only native English-speakers in this lively little neighborhood restaurant packed with people on a rainy Tuesday in early May. The staff went out of their way to accomodate us without a reservation (strongly recommended) and wrote down a list of other restaurants when we tried to book a table for the following night only to learn that they are closed on Wednesdays. Having established that the people are great and the place is endearing, let me make clear that the food is just terrific. I suspect one can’t go wrong. Hyper-regional, flawlessly executed, and reasonably priced for the area. Could not have hoped for a better experience.

This was such a great way to end our day trip to the "Tessin." the place is pretty cool in itself. The merlot risotto served in a merlot bottle half to die for. The entrecote was amazing as well. The service was great, the servers were friendly, accomodating and all was pretty quick.
