It’s not ordinary pizza or pasta – it’s a historically correct traditional food common for Como region back then. The owner and all the staff were highly pleasant and attentive. We had a great experience

Wow, wow, WOW! If you’re looking to avoid the tourist traps around Lake Como and experience truly local Lombardian fare, this must be at the top of your list. With exquisite fish dishes, incredible views, and the warmth of the very best of Italian hospitality, Trattoria del Porto exceeds the mark in every aspect. This is THE PLACE to eat the local dish “Riso e Pesce” or Rice and Fish. Reservations are highly recommended and the place is truly an adventure to find, but it’s so worth it in every aspect. I cannot wait to go back!

Best restaurant within the radius of 100km. You get a very good value 5 course local fish treat. The wine suggestion was spot on.
You can have access by boat or road. But please try the road because it was exceptionally beautiful. The owner was super friendly, he gave us a list of must-visit places. We didn’t have time to finish all of them but his advices were very good. So thank you if you are reading this review

Amazing place with a great view! The staff is very nice and helpful. The menu is fixed and takes you through a number of carefully prepared dishes, all with fresh fish from the lake. It is very well balanced, both in regards to taste and in regards to quantity. As a bonus, don’t drive there, their wine and limoncello are great.
If you travel to Lake Como it’s definitely an experience worth checking out at least once. Make sure to call and make a reservation in advance, as some days it can get pretty easily crowded.

Challenging to get there but totally worth the effort. We had a really nice evening at this lovely restaurant. The service is very welcoming and attentive. The menu might seem to be a bit expensive, but it includes everything and you won’t pay any extras. The wine served with the dinner was great and in a generous amount, the food was very local, so no pasta, obviously no pizza and it’s based on the local fish. We had a lovely evening and had a great experience.

Wow, what a unique experience. First you walk down 300 steps, and discover a quaint and beautifully rustic restaurant overlooking the lake. We enjoyed every course and the ambience made the experience even better. The dishes take you through a gastronomical history lesson of Lake Como.

Had one of the best meals we’ve had here in Italy! Very authentic Italian meal using fresh fish from the lake. From the wine to dessert it was all delicious! The service was phenomenal, extremely friendly & professional. Definitely the best service we’ve had in Italy. The setting is also beautiful with a view over the lake. If you’re looking for an authentic Italian experience (unlike the overpriced & touristy restaurants at Como) make sure you visit Trattoria del Porto! You can drive or catch the bus or the ferry to Careno (the restaurant is literally next to the ferry terminal).

Cute local restaurant where you get a set menu with local specialties for €40. The food was incredible, the service very friendly, and the view of the lake absolutely perfect. Highly recommended.

We had a memorable evening at this lakeside trattoria. We enjoyed delicious lake fish and local dishes, including thoughtful alternatives for a vegetarian.
Go for the food, stay for the views and excellent service.
