La Palma - Bissone

Quite disappointed comparing this restaurant next to a round about, railways, main road Milano-Bellinzona and HIGHWAY all together.Few meters from Bissone public beach...Nice welcoming and kindness but complete loss of energy compared to so many great places around. Al Faro, Cantinone, Soave 10, Moscotte, the new restaurant up the Monte Generoso (by special small train) to reach the last masterpiece Fiora di Pietra of great intern' Mario Botta, and Palace Café on the fantastic square created in front of the LAC (Lugano Arte è Cultura). In Lugano, Locarno and Ascona, and in the incredible old Italian city of Bellinzona restaurants are led with enthusiam and great energy. La Palma is more old fashion style and slow. Good fresh food and good pricrs.But why not try yourself.

We had a quick lunch stop here on the way to Lugano. Food was good, but pricey for what it is. Service was quick.

I like to eat seafood, particularly "Luccioperca" in this gorgeous restaurant on the lake shore. But all is delicious, from meat to pasta, from risotti to desserts. They also have a broad coiche of very good wines. You can find whatever you like, here! Also the service is very professional. Prices are a little high but portions are generally abundant. Anyway, it's the Swiss standard.

They cook every kind of dishes, such as meat, risotto or pasta..but I use to eat fish, especially some special starters with many different kinds of fish and shellfish.The strength lies, in my opinion, in its gorgeous view on the lake, I really suggest it during the summer.

We went there for a romantic dinner. Parking space might be a problem.The food was excellent as was the wine and not to forget the grappa barrique.The service was very friendly and helpful. However the restaurant has its price and we visited smaller grottos in the area that might be considered a little more romantic.
