The house
A restaurant with rooms, in the same family since 1987.
When Elena’s parents took over the house on the shore, it was a fishermen’s tavern with four tables. Today there are eleven inside and eight on the terrace — and the fish still comes in the morning from the same fisherman.
We cook without detours: what the season brings, changed as little as possible. With wines from Ticino and Piedmont, chosen by Elena.
