Ristorante Pizzeria Elena - Morcote

This fantastic small family restaurant was recommended by our hotel, it was also really close to the hotel (Hotel City, Lugano) so it was a quick easy walk. It was a pretty quiet middle of the week night, so we had many tables to choose from. The staff was friendly and easy to communicate. Pizza was absolutely brilliant one of the best we ever had! Perfect. We usually order a glass of casa rossi with our meals and this house wine was also excellent. This is a great restaurant and is highly recommended.

We arrived late, but the staff delayed closing the place for us! Clean and good service. We had Margherita and Diavola. Both good with a nice beer on tap.

Visited Tuesday 17. 11 for dinner. Cute environment, service not very careful (we were in 4, not all we had finished the appetizer, they started to shoot, and immediately arrived the dumplings without letting us finish calmly, the bread was not on the table like not even grana/pepee/sale), there is the wine card and no explanation to the same if not that their cost is 40fr a bottle (!!!!!!!!) and 8 fr the glass we ate gnocchi alla sorrentina (they were not on the menu, they kindly prepared it ad hoc), poor portion and some little cooked dumplings for well 18 fr! personally it seems to me a high price for the small portion and especially for gnocchi (I don't think of own production) mozzarella and tomato. Good aperitif pizza: I'd only have to go back to the pizza. Total of the account: 111fr (below in 4 from aperitif, 4 servings of dumplings, liter gas water, 3 glasses of wine, 1 coffee)

I've been to lunch with an old friend... Friendly and helpful staff. We had a good time and I can definitely recommend a gastronomic visit. Special dessert and last offered us their lemon. To improve the main dish matching / contour and positive dessert would not put the whole strawberry,, but clean.
