The staff here is efficient and the food excellent. We had the regional risotto and fresh lake perch for two and the quality was outstanding. Atmosphere inside the dining room is clean and attractive, but not elegant. Decent wine list. We dined here several times during our 4 day visit and were not disappointed. English is well spoken here.

Stay away from this place for food or drink. Some of the worst service we have ever had anywhere. Sat outside after much time finally got someone to wait on us. Asked for a menu and were told no lunch for half hour. We ordered a coffee and a coke. After an hour no one ever came back. Went inside and the owner said what do you want. I said pay for coffee and coke. Also asked when lunch was served . To which she said now with a bad attitude. I said well you just lost a customer and she could have cared less. No way to do business. Will NEVER go there again.

On our day trip to Lake Como we chose to sit out the front and look over the lake. We ordered cappuccino x2, an apple strudle and a chocolate au pain. The service was brilliant and fast, good english, cakes were lovely, location is amazing (right on the lake) and the prices were very very good. (8.50 euro for items as above).

Olivedo Restaurant was recommended to us by our AirBnb host so we gave it a try. We loved it! It's in a great location near the ferry. We were a party of 4 and 3 of us got lake fish entrees and the 4th got salad and pasta. We were all happy. Our waitresses were friendly and attentive and recommended a nice bottle of wine. We wanted to return to try the risotto with lake fish but sadly ran out of time. Next time...
