Why go
About La Cava dei Sapori
La Cava dei Sapori has been feeding Como since 2005. It sits in the Camerlata and Rebbio district, close enough to walk or drive into the centre and down to the lake, and it welcomes guests into a warm, unfussy dining room where lunch and dinner both feel relaxed.
The idea is simple: a kitchen you can watch, a pizzeria for gourmet pies, and a wine bar with a list that goes well beyond the obvious. The menu changes with the season, mixing familiar classics with a few creative touches built on the ingredients of the moment.
