Why go

About Trattoria Baita Belvedere

The trattoria grew out of a childhood dream of Giacomino, who imagined a restaurant in his uncle's woods with a sweeping view of Bellagio. As a young man he built the place himself in his spare time, and it opened in 1981. His wife Elisabetta took over the stove, while the children worked the dining room.

Today a new generation helps out in the dining room and kitchen. The family keeps a kitchen garden with organic vegetables and wild herbs, and a sommelier in the family builds the wine list around Lake Como, Valtellina and small producers elsewhere in Italy. Old farm tools decorate the room, a reminder of the farming roots behind the cooking.
