Soft lighting and wooden accents create a cozy yet refined atmosphere, making it an inviting place to linger over a meal. Attention to detail is evident not only in the surroundings but also in the attentive but unobtrusive service, which balances professionalism with warmth.

So far I have eaten there only once but I can say food is great. I had braised beef with grilled polenta and porcini mushrooms with some Barbera and strudel as dessert. Everything delicious and genuinely home made. Cozy atmosphere where staff is very warm yet professional. Plenty of seats inside and some tables oustide too. Between the restaurant and the street there's the parking so if you choose to take seat on the terrace you won't be bothered by cars noise. Highly recommended. I will go back for sure :).

A rainy day in off-season allowed us to visit Santa Caterina hermitage. Very nice. And we had lunch at La Vecchia Fontana. It was just great in every sense. Inside features a comfortable and cosy rustic dining. We receieved a warm welcome from the staff and the chef.The food was grandiose from misto fritta to mushroom tagliatelle and veal in red wine and pollenta. Just marvelous. To continue on this high note, we finished with chocolate mousse (fondant au chocolat noir), icecream in Grand Marnier and a frozen icegream meringue. The bill was sweetly low for this fantastic lunch and wine. Should you be so lucky to be around this part of the lake: do not hesitate one second, it will make up your memory for fine eating.

Authentic, cozy and extremely good food. We tried everything almost: all the antipasti (fried gnocchi with ham are a must!), fish ravioli, cuttlefish, pork, picanha, lasagna and the desserts (try the ricotta pistachio cake!). Very well priced, very good service and uncomplicated. You can get pasta for the kids. We were a group of 13 and were lucky to book for the same day. Thank you so much for the good time and delicious food! We’ll be back these days
