We had a very nice dinner here recently with home made Gnocchi and the meat for me and fish for my company. The food was exquisite and the service warm and welcoming. Highly recommended.

Vibe check on point. The place in itself is beautiful and calm that it makes you wanna just stay there. The service is also amazing and the food is good too. If in morcote one must atleast grab a drink if you don't have time for food. Totally recommended.

Very lovly place with a great view and a small but mostly homemade menu. The onwer was very friendly and happy to explain us all the options in detail. Putine and Polenta with Brasato were a delight. But the homemade "Cremeschnitte" for dessert took the cake! Don't miss that.Only problem were the mosquitos after sun down. Take an anti-spray with you or you'll be one the menu as well.

Lovely terrasse with amazing view. The menu is basic (don’t forget it’s a grotto) but everything we had was delicious (including pizzas). Access to the lake for a quick summer splash and parking are just in front of the palce.

Very fine takeaway food options during Covid times. The quality of the food is top, and the service is so friendly! Highly recommend the veal polenta.Perfect for grabbing food and drinks after a stroll (hike?) through Parco Scherer.I imagine the terrace is amazing when it reopens! But for now, there are plenty of nice benches by the lake for eating al fresco when the weather agrees.

Amazing gem. A great grotto with great food, service and ambiance. We had a starter, main courses, house wine and dessert. Must revisit

A beautiful cozy place, by the lake. Loved the food, the pizza was so soft and well seasoned. We also tried the spinach and ricotta angloti which was so rich in taste.Love our lunch experience here. A good number of Veg options were available to choose from.The staff was very polite and took extra care to explain the menu to us as we did not know Italian. Loved the service too !Will definitely come back given the chance.
