Top location and wonderful view of the lake. Extremely delicious cuisine and excellent service.
It's a very busy place, but the day I went, with good weather, it was wonderful.
We had two pizzas, the prices of which were in line with the competition €17 each). The drinks were very expensive. However, the location was great, with a lake view. The waiters were friendly.
A really good pizza!! And with very friendly and attentive staff, eating with beautiful views
Despite the large crowds, especially since it was Easter Sunday, the waiters remained friendly and professional. There's no limit on table consumption, and the selection is varied. It's a great option for children to pick up a tray of whatever they want at the counter. Prices are high, but in line with the rest of Bellagio.

Even though it appears and smells like a tourist trap the place is not bad! Location is good. You can be on the water and there a different more expensive menu is served or be on street level. Still nice place to watch the crowds Service is slow. They forgot about our pizza till we reminded them. But they are nice and polite and tool our phones to charge them. The pizza, again considering the touristy location, is actually VERY good. Drinks are fine and the price is right. It is not fine dining but I will go again if I am there.
Above average for location and the frutti di mare was great, service was slow. Lots of open tables so didn't have to wait late in the evening.
It’s a difficult one to review. On one hand the scenery is spectacular and 2/6 of our party had a lovely meal, thankfully I was one of the two. But and there is a huge but, the experience was that of a candid camera show where any minute we fully expected a film crew and an Italian presenter, hair slicked back with brilliantly white teeth to put us out of our misery, alas this was not to be. From ordering the wine and being told to order another to the drinks not turning up and two meals not arriving at all only to be told that the chef has gone home but ordering ‘one by one’ had caused confusion. My particular highlight was the use of English swear words to punctuate sentences, sprinkling the F word like pepper on the non existent pasta dishes. It was not only us but a further 2 tables who were treated to the flamboyant outbursts. We left bemused, confused, grateful for our freedom and sadly for some of our party…hungry. The waiter who took our payment confirmed this was a nightly occurrence, not for the faint hearted!
Visited this place a couple of times and both times service was delivered by miserable waiting staff who ignored our many attempts to order a second drink, on the second visit we ate in the restaurant over the water, food was cold and uncooked we had to send the fish we ordered back as it was raw and cold and though it was returned re cooked it took a long time and there was no apology from waiting staff or reflection on the bill etc. Nice position but that’s it. Go elsewhere.
Location was great. Food was lovely and staff fantastic under challenging circumstances! The weather turned and a massive storm hit the lower terrace hard! We had to bail out to the higher bar area but the team were brilliant. Only minor downside being the ferry terminal is next door so occasionally the view is lost for a little while but in terms of value for money and quality this place is one of the best in town!

Eating was very good with quite decent trips. the ambiente to sit on the lake is excellent. the big problem is service. our lunch.
€67 for three courses, two people. fresh Greek salad more robust than most delicious artichokes-ham pizza and garnel risotto, abundant desserts, a beer and.
Bar splendide is located directly on the water in bellagio, near the ferry. by default, they will then get the beautiful view of the sea and the markise extends.
