La Speranzina Restaurant & Relais

Amazing experience at La Speranzina. Had dinner there and we can only recommend 100%. Service was outstanding, we truly appreciated the efforts put into by our waiter to present all dishes in French even though he hadn’t practiced in a while (and he did an amazing job !). Everyone else was so nice and we were welcomed in the best way. We got help from the staff to find a parking spot and we also got to visit the kitchens and cellar. We asked for the best table and we got the most beautiful view. Food was incredible, nothing to say. Everything was perfect, as the chef said “Primo, el gusto” and that’s exactly what it was. We really appreciated getting to chat with the chef who was there on that night. Thank you again to the La Speranzina staff for this exceptional moment !

Be extremely careful when deciding to dine at this restaurant. The restaurant offers several chef's menus: 3, 4, and 5 courses. They also have an à la carte menu, which states that the à la carte menu should consist of 3 courses - an appetizer, a main dish, and a dessert, and that it costs $95. My husband and I ordered an appetizer each, a main dish each, and a cheese platter to share (instead of dessert). When the bill arrived, we were surprised to find that desserts we did not order, as well as the cheese platter, had been added to the bill. Our total was about $500, despite the fact that the à la carte menu costs $95 per person. After we expressed our disagreement with the bill, they took $20 off. The service was also poor. Before the cheese was served, I had to ask them to remove the dirty plates from the table and clean up the crumbs.

Amazing food, a very special meal! The room was beautiful as well, and the service was great - we had a delightful stay overnight. But above all the dinner was stupendous!

Came here for an anniversary meal. We were pampered right from the start. We had a tour of the kitchens and wine cellars. The food was amazing. The details of the food processing was equally amazing. And the views over the lake were stupendous.

We stayed here for one night. What a fantastic place - the rooms are luxurious and the staff friendly and welcoming. You check in at the office, and then walk through the small but beautiful garden to get to your room. Our bed was large and comfortable. We had cocktails and dinner at the restaurant, one of the best meals for a long time and very romantic as we were sat on the terrace by the water.

If you have a chance to go to Sirmione, you must try this restaurant. Atmosphere is great. They start by giving you a tour of the kitchen. You meet the Chef. Food was amazing. They have a great Cellar. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

This could have been amazing, but it wasn’t. Our experience with soured by a cold unfriendly waiter. The food was excellent. The flavours were experimental and exciting and it fulfilled my appetite, especially as they made a pasta for my pomodoro as I was vegetarian. However the waiter had the audacity to roll eyes and make condescending comments at a family for he had just travelled to Garda to have a lovely restaurant experience. She said many condescending comments, had an overall bad attitude and was very cold in the way that she interacted with us. This made us feel very upset and unwelcome, although they had done a kitchen tour which was lovely the shadow the whole evening and we decided to leave early without dessert. It seemed as if our needs and request were simply a hassle which she couldn’t be bothered to do. Come here if you love exiting food. Don’t come here if you appreciate respectful service. The other people were lovely, it was just this one woman.

We stayed in a suite and we also ate dinner at the restaurant. The room was beautiful, large and very clean. It is in a perfect location to explore. Dinner was absolutely perfect and our only regret was getting the 6 course tasting menu vs getting the full 8. We will be back! Highly recommend to stay here and also dinner at the restaurant.
