BISTROT 76
Read moreIn the heart of town, just a stone's throw from the lake, Bistrot 76 (formerly Ristorante Piemontese) is one of Stresa's most renowned addresses. Inside: a beautifully wood-panelled dining room and a flower-filled pergola for al fresco dining. The varied cuisine is typically Piedmontese, and the wine list is tempting. The welcome is friendly, almost family-like, and you'll feel right at home. The lake menu offers fish and local produce in original specialties, a real discovery. Good value for money.
GRANO DURO

If the outside doesn't look like much, you won't leave disappointed after tasting the dishes offered, whether you opt for a pizza or a dish. First of all, the pizzas, cooked on a wood fire, are creamy and well filled, among the best on the lake. For the dishes, whether it is fish (octopus carpaccio, scampi, lavaret and others, from the lake or the sea), pasta or meat, everything is very tasty. Very good service too.
