Ristorante Visteria

Absolutely delicious lunch with a view on the lake and the beach! We started with a prosciutto crudo appetizer, followed by the Greek salad and perfectly tender beef that melted in your mouth. The lilac lemonade was such a refreshing surprise. Great service and an unbeatable setting overlooking Lake Como — highly recommend.

Wow! This dinner was the best dinner I have had in my entire life and we’ve eaten at Michelin star restaurants! This restaurant is beyond deserving of Michelin status! The staff (Pepe and Aziz) were phenomenal and so professional and accommodating! Chef Francesco Sarno personally introduced himself before dinner, made suggestions, and delivered a meal we will remember for a lifetime. I’ve never had the sensory experience of smell, visual presentation, and taste all come together so magically. This restaurant and hotel gets 5 stars in my book! I hope I get the chance to return one day!

Dined at Visteria to celebrate a special occasion and it absolutely did not disappoint. The lake view was even more stunning in person, and the service was genuinely five-star from start to finish. It was the best dinner we had in Lake Como – made even better by the warm, personal touches throughout. A special thank you to Luca, who went above and beyond to make our celebratory evening truly memorable. Highly recommended!

This dining experience is second to none! It is a must for a special occasion when visiting Lake Como. We visited during our honeymoon and it is chefs kiss!! The food is incredible, 7 courses is actually 10 and the matching wine is like nothing you'll have had before. Staff were outstanding, and knowledgeable and nothing was too much trouble. They were even kind enough to make a special dessert wishing us a happy honeymoon. Highly, highly recommend.

We had an amazing 3 course dinner experience here. The food was very delicious and flavorful. It was also very unique with the flavors. The brought out many complimentary appetizers and desserts. Just beware the price of champagne. They asked us if we would like champagne when we sat down and i didn’t realize they were going to charge us 160 euros doe the four glasses. All in all I highly recommend this place for dinner.

Food, service, and atmosphere were absolutely amazing. I'm not sure if they have a Michelin star or not but they sure do need one. It is that good and the service is VERY good and the view is also absolutely beautiful. We had some creative dishes that we never had anywhere else. It is a must go, especially if you're staying at the hotel. The wine pairings were fantastic as well. Not going to post pictures because this is a restaurant you should experience in person. It's just a *bit* pricey but it's still an excellent experience.

First night in Varenna, and how Ristorante Visteria did not disappoint! Simply put, best restaurant and experience we’ve ever had, and you cannot miss the opportunity to place a reservation. Service and dishes were impeccable!! Amazing attention to detail, and had catered to dietary restrictions for every course. Lovely for the Chef to come out and introduce themself to finish off the night. Thank you for having us 🩷

An incredible experience for our 9 year wedding anniversary. The service was the best we have ever experienced and is on another level to anything else in varenna. The food itself all had a story to tell and was just as much creative art as it was food. The wait staff were all knowledgeable and super passionate. Happy to explain the dishes and give feedback. After what was an amazing meal the chef came out and introduced himself which was a nice touch. I highly recommend the spaghetti, risotto, squid, Sirloin and the chocolate souffle. You will not be disappointed here. Definitely a special occasion fine dining experience you will not forget.
