As soon as we arrived, it was evident that we were not welcome. The two waitresses seemed overwhelmed, impolite, and continuously ignored us. They refused to take our drink order, and when we went back to the bar, they insisted that we sit down. We then proceeded to the dining table, where we requested one close to the water's edge. However, we were informed that those tables were reserved and we had to wait for menus for another 15 minutes, despite asking for them. The delay was so long that the people who were initially seated by the water left, and the waitresses offered that table to others who arrived after us and had no reservation. To make matters worse, three of the dishes on the menu were unavailable, including their vongole, which was made with frozen shrimp. The portions were small and excessively greasy. The only saving grace was a delightful tiramisu. The wine bottle we had selected was not in stock, so they suggested a similar one. However, they mistakenly opened a more expensive bottle and only realized their error afterwards. Fortunately, they did not charge us for the pricier wine. Overall, the place had a nice ambiance, decent cocktails, but disappointing food and terrible service. I would only consider returning if absolutely necessary.
The beach offers an ideal setting for a delightful dining experience. The attentive staff, delectable menu, and exquisite wine selection truly enhanced our evening. Throughout the course of a week, we had the pleasure of visiting Veranda Beach on three separate occasions. Undoubtedly, it ranks among the top establishments in the vicinity of Lake Como.
I had an incredibly delightful dining experience at Veranda. Valentina, the owner, consistently wears a smile and goes above and beyond to guarantee that you have an exceptional time at her restaurant. The marinated octopus and Duck pasta (not shown in the picture) were both flawless, cooked to perfection with delightful flavors. The cocktails were absolutely delicious, and unlike many other places, they truly know how to make a fantastic Mojito using fresh mint from their own garden. The stunning views of Lake Como were absolutely breathtaking. I highly recommend this place to anyone in the area seeking remarkable food and a fantastic atmosphere.
We stopped by for lunch and ended up staying until early evening. It's a stunning location in an incredible part of the world. Valentino ensures that you have a fantastic time. The food is amazing, and the service is great. Plus, the memories made here will stay with you forever. I highly recommend it.
The beach was absolutely stunning, offering a delightful view and enjoyable music. Although the staff was consistently slow, they were always friendly. However, it's best to avoid ordering any food as our expectations for a delicious dish priced at 18 euros were far from met. Instead, we were served a disappointing combination of toasted bread and a fish can.
