Il Molo - VARENNA

This place is in an awesome spot for a very scenic view while having drinks or dinner. We had had the lake with Mountain View’s right in front of us. We stopped in here for a couple drinks and appetizers. The beer and wine were good as were the fried cheese balls. When the bill came the waiter gave us a small jar of jelly. He said the business supports a child’s charity and they a bunch to hand out to customers. Again the place has great views and they had live entertainment. I would highly recommend this place and would definitely go back if in the area.

We had breakfast here for three mornings as it was included with our stay in the associated Divina Vita Apartments. Each morning was good egg dishes tasty, loved the yoghurt and granola, fresh orange juice and of course the amazing view of Lake Como. The apartment itself (which I can 't find to review on TripAdvisor) was absolutely stunning. We stayed in the 'Design ' apartment which had clearly recently been renovated to a very high standard. The furniture was stylish, the bed was amazingly comfortable and the views of the lake were better than we could have ever hoped. It was so special and one of the best places we have ever stayed in. Loved it. Worth the money for sure.

I don't know if it was bad day for them when we visited but as my title said, the worst food we can remember. We visited this place for lunch as a couple. Firstly, we would normally not dine in a place like this as it looked like a tourist trap. It was facing the lake, high foot traffic area and super crowded. But because it achieved such high reviews on here, we thought we would give it a go. We ordered battered courgette flowers, caprese salad and pizza. The battered courgette flower turned up hot on the batter, but the courgette flower was cold, like it was not defrosted. The tomatoes in the caprese salad was floury, and the pizza was tasteless and doughy. We sent the courgette flowers back for them to heat up, and it returned soggy like they microwaved. So I had to chase the waiter and waitress to get them to see it was cold and even worse than first time. The waitress did recognise the issue and didn't charge us for the courgette. The table was not very clean and service was average. It was clear the restaurant was understaffed. Overall not a dining experience we want to remember.

The place is wonderful view but spritz a unique sadness. water scioscia

The intention is certainly the attraction of this restaurant, so it seems that they do not really try to eat on. the bruschetta for one was a sad piece mozzarella.
