Crotto Del Misto - LEZZENO

Super helpful and friendly staff! great service! fun assured if you like water sports! spectacular view! definitely a place not to miss if you are on the lake como

Lovely place with lake view. excellent fish cuisine of the lake, I also recommend the meats that are excellent. the staff is always kind and professional. we like to go often also because the owners are really delicious and available. highly recommended!

This is a bit of a difficult review to write… Five years ago, we came to Lezzeno and stayed in an Airbnb loved area thus returning, and had two dinners here, had a wonderful time experience and service…. This trip time returning to stay here for 4 nights as a minimum stay is three nights , we wanted to get the full ‘crotto del misto’ experience… I cannot complain about the room, a fantastic view on 2nd floor overlooking lake and probably one of the best toilet views in the world overlooking Lake Como…. The shower a little slow to get hot water though. We ate in the restaurant once this time, the food as I remembered good, although the service a little bit slow… Continental breakfast good nothing cooked hot coffee machine broken so they were getting elsewhere our cappuccino’s… I guess the disappointing thing about our stay was if you have a good time at the a destination the first time possibly the second time it is less climatic, which was the case for us here here….. It was the end of there season and that weekend they were closing the hotel, restaurant end of October apparently. They shut the hotel for six months similar to Greek islands, they appear to run the hotel open for six months and closed for six months … the staff seemed tired and lethargic, the atmosphere we felt as well… The hotel only had three rooms occupied whilst we were on our visit , room next door to us was a family first night and they were quite noisy, screaming children… The last night the Bay next door had a barge which was doing work on the beach or something and woke us at 6:30-7am in the morning…. So, although whilst It was a bit anticlimactic, they weren’t any major issues with the room or stay just appeared that the staff were exhausted after possibly busy season being after Covid….. Not to mention the hotel staff here, but everywhere we went in Lake Como…. There were still loads of tourists around, and the hospitality staff and infrastructure appeared not be to be able to cope… so assuming that we weren’t the only disappointed tourists in the area… c'est la vie.

Just a perfect view on lake Como. A charming location with fine personnel and great food. Would suggest this location for multiple types of visits.

Confused about the reviews and why this place was fully booked (plenty of table and rooms that were empty). The food was a total let down unfortunately, we never tasted such bland food and a boring atmosphere. The view is what makes this restaurant worthwhile but the food is poor. I haven’t had such a bad meal for a long time and we paid €60 (reasonable but not when the food is bad) we kept eating it because the place was such a remote area and the only restaurant available (we didn’t want to be hungry at night). The starter of fish and polenta was SO SALTY! Felt like we were just eating salt granules. We were too polite to say anything but it was just disappointing…this restaurant has so much potential. Service was also poor..we asked for olive oil and vignette with our bread three times and they kept forgetting. Asked for the bill twice and they also kept forgetting. The receptionist was nice ‘maddie’ who was friendly, just a real shame about the restaurant.
