There is a cute playground, the staff is friendly, the food is really good(we had risotto) and the prices are also good!

We passed one prospect but the plastic tablecloths and cheesy music put us off and so we continued on up the very narrow and tricky to pass mountain road. Lovely views but a nightmare road where we got jammed in gridlock on the way down. On the way up on the right hand side a large car park opened up next to a rustic looking building and this looked like, if nothing else, a good spot to have a short walk or turn the car around and head back down the road. However, it shortly became apparent that many maybe all) the visitors in this large car park were visiting the Ristorante Brasa. We soon found out why. Rustic chic, low prices, good food and a great atmosphere full of locals, birthday parties etc). We found the service very friendly and attentive. The food was very good rather than absolutely excellent but great value and I think the subject of rather harsh judgement from us due to being spoilt at other locations. By this time I was very hungry and over ordered not unheard of). A large and very good Vitello Tonnato enough for two my partner helped me along a little together with her large salad). Followed by a tasty home made and probably wood oven cooked) lasagne for me and pasta with cheese, mushrooms and prawns for my partner a little heavy but good). The stand out course was the grilled chicken. This was clearly cooked in the wood oven. Crispy, slightly dark and delicious on the outside, herbs permeating the dish, moist and tender on the inside This is highly recommended! All in all a welcome, excellent value and recommended lunch stop. Probably improved if you have a motor bike or a helicopter as getting there is definitely something for the brave or those with an already modified vehicle.

This is not an upscale type restaurant, it's pretty laid back, but for a casual lazy lunch it's great.

Real good pizza for a very reasonable price! Also the road to Brasa is amazing. We only ordered pizza so other dishes are unknown to us. read more Real good pizza for a very reasonable price! Also the road to Brasa is amazing. We only ordered pizza so other dishes are unknown to us.

But we found this place just up the road. Loads of tables, nice environment and a decent menu. Service was quick and the service was good The bill wasn’t bad too compared to the more touristy lake locations either!
