"I must say that we ate well but the behavior of the waiter and I believe the owner, a somewhat large guy with a full voice, during lunch on Saturday 24 February 2024 let 's say that in a certain sense he pampered us but in his own way, I I even showed him the nice review I had given him on Google and he authoritatively told me, after all, I 'll give you a nice gift. Let me start by saying that it was the third time I ate there, twice with local friends. We choose from the menu and order, 4 crostini as a starter and 1 cordon bleu with 1 elephant ear, we eat and feel good. I ask for the bill and it arrives on the table, I get up to pay with the master card, I type in the pin and I pay and once he gives me the receipt in my hand, he, the one who served us at the table, starts to say in a loud voice of Mussolini, let 's arm ourselves and leave, Italian thieves and then he disappears leaving me embarrassed in front of everyone, an Italian who discriminates against another Italian!!! It came naturally to me to immediately say (taking back the nice words I had to say to him my wife and I had a great time and we will be back soon!! look that Ticino was created by the Italians many years ago and that Switzerland was created from the French, Germans and Italians!!! And in here we are all Italians!! But crazy stuff!! But also analyzing the price for what we ate, therefore, 4 slices of bread each with some already made sauces, 1 bottle of water and 1 can of coke, second course, 1 cordon bleu and a pork Milanese, 120 francs !! And I didn 't object to both the food and the price, so who is the Italian thief? But it 's not the expense that bothers me, this is a consequence of what you told me, it 's useless for me to write on the site or anything else for 31 years in Ticino, yes but she arrives with a cardboard suitcase or from Calabria or Sicily many years ago, so how dare you do racial discrimination? Shame on you and if you have to continue like this, change your job immediately so that you don 't disgrace your origins!!! In that room on Saturday there were many Italians and from what I understood a family who had recently moved to Lugano!!! Among other things, before this he had discussed with another customer about a seat and added that his mother and brother were already sitting there. Are you from Ticino? But only on paper, perhaps his great-grandchildren will be true Ticinese because it takes 7 generations to become pure!!!"

"1,000% recommend!! I visited this charming, wonderful grotto with my family back in August, and it was one of the best restaurant experiences of our lives! The setting is just perfect warm and storybooklike. From the moment we arrived, Roberto was so welcoming. It was great talking with him! His wife Christina's food is absolutely divine. Every dish wowed us! I especially loved the apple gorgonzola risotto and the cheesecake. At the end of the meal, Roberto gave us samples of their limoncello which was such a fun conclusion to our amazing night. I highly reccomend Grotto Castagneto to anyone in the Lugano area!"

"Abbiamo trascorso 5 giorni al Parco San Marco Resort, quindi abbiamo deciso di mangiare ogni sera in un posto diverso. Alla fine, probabilmente avremmo scelto La Taverna se avessimo avuto solo una scelta. Il servizio è stato gentile, ma all'italiana, cioè non...aperti, ma ci vuole un po' di tempo. Entrambi abbiamo preso una pizza che viene servita solo la sera. Il ristorante è ben posizionato, si può vedere direttamente il lago quando si siedono sulla veranda fuori. Il menu del giorno sembrava molto gustoso, ma volevamo la nostra prima pizza dopo 3 giorni in Italia. Abbiamo pagato un totale di 50€, che è molto buono per: una bottiglia di acqua mezzo litro di vino della casa 2 pizze 2 dolci 2 caffè espresso quando provano intorno a Cima."

"(Traducido por Google) Estuvimos durante un almuerzo de negocios en esta gruta. El dueño tomó una silla y se sentó a nuestro lado. La comida diferente se presentó prácticamente sin un mapa y tenía algo para todos. Elegimos conejos con polenta, tripa (trippa) con polenta. El conejo estaba un poco seco con los grandes trozos de carne, pero tampoco puedo preparar de otra manera. La tripa, había comido mejor. En general, una buena gruta con una gran selección de platos calientes. (Original) Wir waren während einem Business Lunch bei diesem Grotto. Die Besitzerin hat sich einen Stuhl genommen und sich neben uns gesessen. Die verschiedenen Speisen wurden praktisch ohne Karte vorgetragen und es hatte für jeden etwas. Kaninchen mit Polenta, Kutteln (Trippa) mit Polenta haben wir ausgesucht. Das Kaninchen war bei den grossen Fleischstücken ein bisschen trocken, aber auch ich kanns nicht anders zubereiten. Die Kutteln, da hatte ich schon bessere gegessen. Alles in allem ein gutes Grotto mit einer grossen Auswahl an warmen Speisen."

"We only stayed one night but were impressed. The view is really beautiful at a more than fair price (100 chf for a double in June), some comforts are missing, such as the bathroom in the room (shared bathroom for 7 rooms), but at least for the blue room there was a sink and a private shower. There is a common room with fridge and coffee machine, breakfast is a basket with a large quantity of packaged snacks. Checkout is late, even until 11, so if you like to sleep late it's perfect. However, be careful about the transport to Lugano, unfortunately it runs too rarely. (even 2h) All the rooms have a lake view (I think they all also have a splendid small balcony). Inspired by the view and the particular menu (I underline particular) we decided to have lunch here, sharing a tasting menu (65 chf) and also trying the extra dishes (10 chf each). The food was truly delicious, with some risky but definitely interesting combinations. Obviously personal taste regarding the individual ingredients also plays its part. We were very sorry to see that two other customers did not want to try to appreciate the dishes, probably because they were expecting something more classic. Therefore, as the owners have already reiterated, take a look at the tasting menu to get an idea of what awaits you, it might simply not be for you. We were willing to try it, even if we weren't used to it, and we were very, very satisfied."
