GROTTO RAFFAEL
At 150 years old, Grotto Raffael is one of the oldest and most typical grotti in Ticino, and still serves traditional Ticino dishes.
With its fantastic terrace in the shade of huge, centuries-old plane trees, it is the ideal place for hot summer days. A small playground also makes it perfect for families. In the spring and autumn months we have a large indoor hall (for up to 60 persons) warmed by an old fireplace.

THE RESTAURANT RECOMMENDS
Such a great Restaurant! Very atmospheric outdoor seating under trees and next to the rocks. Absolutely friendly staff, which can speak several languages. I don't even need to talk about the meals, it was just so delicious. Especially the Risotto - you need to try that, seriously.
