"Menu alla carta pazzesco. Piatti ben scelti dallo chef, di carne e di pesce, con interessanti rivisitazioni che impreziosiscono le portate. Spaziali i gamberi in kataifi. La maionese alla soia che accompagna il salmerino (tipico pesce di lago) era perfetta. Carta dei vini un po’ overpriced ma hanno anche soluzioni di mezze bottiglie."

"Most of the restaurants in this area cater to tourists, and the food quality isn't the best. However, this restaurant, located inside the Park Hotel, offers good quality and service!"

"Great food and calm setting. The host took his time for any questions we had around the food or wine we had. Thank you for the warm service! Only tip for others: the tiramisu’s mascarpone was a bit bland to our personal taste, so given the fantastic starters, pasta and main we had. I suggest trying one of their other desserts ;)."

"Amazing experience. Waiters extremely caring and friendly, super very attentive to details, but never too invasive. We were celebrating a birthday, and they served extra food in some dishes we were all sharing."

"Sehr zuvorkommender Service, ein besonderes Ambiente mitten in Desenzano. Angenehm ruhig, mit Blick auf das Wasser, eine Oase. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Gerichte die hier zubereitet und serviert werden, haben eine besondere Erwähnung verdient. Die Küche und das gesamte Team haben tolle Speisen kreiert, die wir mit Genuss genießen durften. Besonders die Grüße aus der Küche, in Form von Zwischengängen haben uns begeistert. Meine Vorspeise, auf den Punkt frittierte Gamberi in Teigmantel auf Apfel und Balsamico, waren ein besonderes geschmackliches Geschenk. Das Hauptgericht ein Rinderfilet butterzart und von exzellenter Qualität. Die Nachspeise ein italienisches hausgemachtes Tiramisu, ohne Worte. Für uns die erste Adresse in Desenzano, vielleicht sogar am gesamten Gardasee. Großen Respekt für die qualitativ hochwertige Bewirtung und die sehr angagierten Mitarbeiter. Bei der Übersetzung der Gerichte wurde ungezwungen geholfen. Lokaler Wein wird erfahrend empfohlen. Eine solche Kombination findet man heutzutage nicht so oft."

"A la carte menu was delicious - shrips, green ravioli and tiramisu. But tasting menu was disappointing - breaded fish was dry and very poor salad and pasta. Overall good service and nice view by the lake."
