Wonderful service, meal and atmosphere
Visited in november 2023
We had lunch at La vista during our trip to lake como , last week of October 2023.
The experience was delightful ????
The seating overlooking the lake is just beautiful.
We tried sea bass and stuffed chicken.
The staff are very polite and we're happy to assist us with suggestions.
Reservations in advance could be a good idea since it's quite busy in tourist season.
It's closed for off season holidays in November.

Our meal was so delicious, the atmosphere so lovely and the young hip waitstaff so professional that we returned two days later for another meal .

10/10 - arrived early for lunch and had a superb view of Como and the town.

Food was the best we have had around the lake and appreciated the vegan/vegetarian menu offering as well.

Service was kind and attentive.

Fabulous place to dine in Varenna, the food was exquisite, all the dishes sound amazing and it is hard to pick - would recommend the 4 course menu to enjoy as many incredible dishes as possible. The clam risotto was fabulous. As was the steak tartare.

This is a gem of a restaurant with lovely views, great service and spectacular food. The chef loved talking about this creation that he made at home and decided to bring to the restaurant. It was the most flavorful risotto we've ever had.

Cibo niente di speciale, buon servizio, vista molto bella. Prezzi alti

Abbiamo mangiato in terrazza con una vista mozzafiato. Cibo buono, qualcosa più qualcosa meno (un po’ troppo tutto “cremolato”). Servizio lentissimo considerando la quantità di personale disponibile e gli occupanti che riempivano solo la terrazza e neanche tutta. Molto gentili. Prezzo nella norma per un posto turistico ed in quella posizione fantastica!

Wow wow wow - best view for dinner. Amazing food we did the 3 course dinner for 50 euro. It was excellent and the staff amazing. If in Varenna a must visit.

service and ambience were great.. but not sure about the food here. ravioli with mushroom was average, risotto with clam had grits every bite, and fish was extremely dry… I am 99.99999% sure they use frozen shrimp/ fish, but waitress said they were fresh.. there is no way… We were the only ppl in 30s…. and everyone was like late 50-60s.. so maybe taste buds can be different, but sadly I do not recommend this place. def try bilacus in Bellagio x10000000

This place is the trifecta: it has amazing views, great food, and excellent service. Though it is still the busy season in Varenna, the maitre'd kindly gave us a table after someone had cancelled a reservation. All the servers were so nice, and so attentive. They were efficient, but unobtrusive, and all spoke excellent English (helpful, because we speak embarrassing Italian!) We really liked the house red wine, which comes from grapes grown not far away. The amuse bouche was a nice touch, and the insalata mista was very fresh. I really enjoyed my pumpkin gnocchi with butter and sage, and my husband had perfectly prepared fresh water bass with mashed sweet potato. Oh, and the whole grain bread they brought to the table was some of the best I've had in Italy! To top it off, there was an amazing sunset! (But you could also top it off with one of their amazing desserts. Unfortunately, we were too full by then.) And if you are vegetarian or vegan, they have many options.

Terrazza panoramica sul lago.
Ambiente molto curato e bella atmosfera. Servizio attento e competente. Cucina e cantina all'altezza delle aspettative. Assolutamente consigliato per cene romantiche.

Food was amazing and delicious but the portion’s quite small for the price though. Service was great and the staff were attentive. The view while having dinner was breathtaking. Definitely great for romantic dinners.

Loved everything about our dining experience here! We booked a bit late so only the side terrace was available. But the views were still amazing from there, and it felt more private than the main deck. Our waiters were the kindest and most spectacular humans. We had ceviche, stuffed hen, filet, Barbaresco that was divine, and some Nebbiolo grappa that was recommended for dessert. Will definitely recommend to friends and be back ourselves someday

This was very cozy place with a delicious menu of food and drinks! If I’m not mistaken, it’s the most vegan/vegetarian-friendly place in the locality. Service was great and courteous. The place looks great around sunset time, so try to book a reservation during then. The only comment I have is that the serving staff should know what the ingredients in every dish are for this kind of a place (the menu isn’t that big anyway). This would enhance the experience of the staff and customers! Lastly, they have a good vegan/vegetarian menu which is a great plus, but they should have more non-seafood options as well to appease the other side of choice.

We look forward to visiting this place in the coming years to see how much they’re going to change!

Un service haut de gamme et un cadre magnifique. Petit point négatif la viande était trop cuite.

Booked well in advance as we knew this place gets booked up, and were really looking forward to it.

Unfortunately, it fell well short of expectations, and this was all down to the really poor service. We tried to order drinks to have with our dinner for about 45 mins, and they never arrived. So we ate our dinner without drinks and left. It felt like we were forgotten about as they had a large table in that evening that seemed to be their only focus.

It's a shame as the food was actually very nice (although it would have been even better with some wine), and the views were spectacular.

La Vista restaurant is located on a terrace overlooking lake Como in the beautiful town of Varenna.
One of the people in my group reserved a table here long in advance for dinner here so we could get close with a good view of the lake,so we thought. It turned out not as good as we thought, so recommended for dinner to reserve a spot well ahead of time. The service and food here is good though.

Adatto anche ai vegetariani. Vista incantevole, ottima carta dei vini

Location bellissima e staff professionale, oltre che estremamente cortese. Sia durante la fase di prenotazione, sia in quella di ristorazione.
I piatti erano erano presentati in maniera ecccellente, e anche la qualità non era da meno. Veramente superlativo, così come lo era l'ambiente. Cenare su una terrazza con vista lago e luci soffuse, è a dir poco magico.
Consiglio questo ristorante a chiunque visiti Varenna.
Allego foto dei piatti.

J'ai super bien mangé sur la terrasse de la Vista à Varenna. Très beau cadre. La vue m'a bien plu. Magnifique.
