Grotto Valmaggese

Nice food but not sure why it took 40 minutes to bring out some slices of cheese as a starter and this ruined the experience as we were so hangry (hadn’t eaten since 7am, got there at 4pm). I know this isn’t normal lunch time but if you’re going to be serving try to do it well... Also note that despite the water being from the tap and soda streamed, it’s 8 francs per litre (we get that we’re in Switzerland, and I’m all for being environmentally friendly but that’s still a bit cheeky). The polenta with Gorgonzola and risotto were both nice, and I appreciated how polite and friendly the waiter was.

The weather was perfect for an outdoor dinner and we had a large, sturdy table for eight of us, including two young teens. The specialty of the house is risotto (although there are other dishes as well) and there were a number of varieties. I had risotto with goose liver, which must be ordered for two people. The house wines were fine and the desserts were excellent. Service was attentive and gracious and parking is right at the restaurant, which is on the main road through town, although not in a congested area. Nice views!

Since with family for lunch, and we had an excellent experience.. all food was amazing. Our daughter loves the fresh pasta and we really enjoy the beef tars and the octopus carpaccio. The main course was also excellent. The outdoor terrace is nice, friendly and well prepared service staff with a great wine recommendation from Maria. Kitchens came to see us at the table and I found it really nice to have an interaction with them. Very recommended if you visit the beautiful Maggia Walley. Grazie mille and see until soon

We was riding with our motorbikes visiting the Lakes of Sambuco Naret. Coming back to Lugano we stopped in this place to eat drink something. The staff was very helpull, friendly and professional. The food was amazing, just delicious. I don´t care how expensive was the bill, but the experience was unique. I recommend it 100%. Thank you. Grazie Mille.

I was delighted with the food that is so fresh, tasty and well-prepared. Both meat and fish dishes are top quality. Personal and owners are incredibly friendly and the place is so nice, I felt like home I will definitely be back when next in Ticino.
