Ci siamo fermati di passaggio in questo locale. Cibo semplice ma di ottima qualità; prezzi modici. Consigliato.

Typical Italian restaurant. Very kind service with really good quality and prices. Strongly recommended.

Nonostante il giorno di festa e la sala piena mi hanno trovato un tavolo. Ottima cucina casalinga dalla pasta al dolce, un ambiente informale, locale simpatico. Personale molto gentile. Molto consigliato.

Very, very nice staff, extremely friendly. Having food there was an unparallel experience for the taste buds. Simple and authentic dishes, but it will leave you pleased. If you are visiting the region, it's worth having a meal here (me saying it is value for money would be rather an understatement!, Really!)

Petit restaurant de passage sympa et authentique. Menu à 19€ (entrée, plat, dessert, eau, café). Rien à dire. Expérience géniale !

Fermato a pranzo per caso,mi hanno trovato un posto anche se non avevo prenotato,cibo casalingo molto buono e servizio impeccabile,da tenere in considerazione per i prossimi passaggi in Ossola.
