Delicious food, even gluten-free. The waitress was very kind and helped us choose both food and drinks, super competent. Absolutely recommended, we will definitely return.
Warm and welcoming environment. Great food and wine! Perfect for celiac people! Maximum attention to intolerances and allergies. Room with fireplace and embers for cooking meat. I highly recommend it! The staff were very kind and very competent!

Nice roof terrace, great view. Gluten-free pasta and risotto possible, unfortunately no gluten-free pizza. Gluten-free bread was served. Service very attentive, prices okay. 7 p.m. for dinner is possible without a reservation (2 people), shortly afterwards many tables were occupied.
This charming spot near the lakeside offers a diverse menu, great ambiance, and is perfect for late-night dining with friends.

Good food, pasta too raw, the waitress not very kind, which is understandable given that she is alone. They didn't have the entire menu available, because not all the employees were there. They say they have gluten-free pizza but I was asked how allergic I was and if I really am celiac, since they deal with gluten-free food I expect them to know that being celiac is not an allergy but an intolerance.
Plus I was told that gluten-free pizza isn't really gluten-free because it's baked in the same oven as the ones with gluten.
I find that saying you have gluten-free food but that the pizza isn't really gluten-free is really risky.
I hope for urgent checks.
Nestled by the lake, this lively spot boasts stunning views and a welcoming vibe, making it a must-visit gem in the heart of Como.

This restaurant is excellent, first of all the welcome; the servers are extremely kind and helpful, explaining the menu with photos. They also speak several languages, including French. The setting is incredible, with a breathtaking view of the lake. As for the food, it's the best meal I've had in Italy so far; truly exquisite. I recommend the risotto, a true explosion of flavor.
NB: They even make gluten-free pizzas.
An open kitchen, chef interaction, and tailored tasting menus make this spot a delightful experience for everyone in the family!

I had dinner this evening with my family and my 2 year old son, having a seat at the table with an open kitchen he was completely charmed and entertained by their work! The chef gave him a hat and he was also given the chance to come in and see the kitchen. Exciting and transmitting one's passion is also this, my son had a really good time. Everything was perfect, from the food (even gluten-free) to the staff. Compliments!
Dine with a lovely view and enjoy great food, though be prepared for mixed service experiences and an unexpected cover charge for kids.

Good option for celiacs. They adapt several dishes to be gluten-free. Delicious food. The service was terrible, we were served by a waiter who didn't speak, just shook his head. Unusual. The girl at the bar is very friendly, but the waiters leave a lot to be desired.
They charge covered even for children under 6 years old. Strange.
Experience a vibrant mix of delicious dishes and unique flavors that cater to everyone, making it a perfect spot for a tasty meal.

Delicious falafel plate with gluten-free crackers.
We had the falafel plate and just asked if the falafel were gluten-free, and then the waitress brought us gluten-free crackers and rice monkeys instead of flatbread for dipping, super attentive and good service.
The black tea tasted fantastic!
A cozy spot with a welcoming vibe, perfect for families, and known for friendly service and helpful staff who explain options clearly.

Stopped by to look at the menu, and the hostess was wonderful and very friendly. I need gluten free. We were seated and had a terrific waitress. Kate took very good care of us. Explained all we needed to know.. a major plus was she brought out warm gluten free bread! A big huge thank you to Kate. And the hostess. I wish we were staying longer as we would be back. Thanks again.

All the staff were very kind in finding us accommodation and managing a child allergic to gluten. Good quality food and prices in line with what is available around. The place is also very well finished. For being in a tourist area, very good

We opted for two pizzas, one gluten-free and a traditional 5 cheese with spicy salami and stuffed crust: the pizza was very good and light despite my "heavy" choice. Friendly staff, recommended.
Enjoy lakeside vibes here with quick service and a relaxed atmosphere, perfect for a leisurely meal with friends.

The gluten free pasta was like rubber. Do not go here if you need gluten-free. Then the staff just left my untouched food sitting on the table despite cleaning everything else and offering coffee. They clearly don’t care about their service or quality of food. It is also over priced as you pay for location which would be fine if you could eat!
15 minutes for a gluten-free burger that is frozen and packaged. I do not recommend for celiacs. It's like eating gum. Disgusting. Much better at McDonalds in Lugano, for example. The site is old. They do not have screens to see the order number.
Enjoy a charming spot just a short stroll from the Duomo, featuring a lovely courtyard, large salads, and delicious homemade desserts.

I stopped for lunch during my visit to the city of Como, in this place which is located a 5 minute walk from the Duomo. It was recommended to me for attention to intolerances such as celiac disease. I must say I had a good time trying an excellent risotto. They also have some gluten-free desserts, I had a creme brulèe. The very welcoming environment overlooks a courtyard that certainly deserves to be enjoyed in good weather. Ditto, it's worth going back to try one of the mega salads they serve
Charming ambiance with stunning Italian decor and top-notch service create the perfect setting for unforgettable gatherings or casual visits.

Went here based on recommendation for gluten free which they do but is limited and you have to like meat as that option.
Food was good but not exceptional
We were very satisfied with the stay! The food was very tasty, nice ambience and courteous service. The plates were beautifully presented. Gluten-free alternatives are also no problem.
Experience authentic Mexican cuisine with rich flavors and a cozy vibe, perfect for anyone looking to satisfy their cravings without the tourist trap.

If you want to eat Mexican go to Mexico but not to the tourist villages, if you can't go to Mexico because it's not around the corner then you can go to Como! Much more convenient and easy to reach, and don't worry the tastes and flavors are the same! Fine cuisine, true Mexican menu and not altered or revisited. One of the owners told us that to make tacos de birria, there is a large pot with beef that cooks for well over six long hours! I'm happy with it because 90% of the dishes are completely gluten free, and for celiacs like me it's really useful to combine flavour, taste and the desire to be fully satisfied without thinking about the problems of the following hours. I only had to avoid the churros because the attentive owner does not guarantee the absence of gluten contamination in the oil, highly appreciated advice for customers like me.
Obviously there is gluten-free beer
Experience a beautiful, relaxing atmosphere with stunning Duomo views, a cozy terrace, and a great selection of special wines at this hidden gem.

Alessandro and Katia are very good at their job.
Their new place is beautiful, the environment is very relaxing and the food is very good. They also have a selection of special wines and super prices.
Highly recommended, also for the view of the Duomo and the very intimate outdoor terrace.
They also have gluten-free dishes.
Well done!
Location, quality, the very history of this wonderful five-star place and beyond.
Impossible to find a flaw.
Thank you very much for your attention also to gluten-free and for always notifying you at the last minute, Antonella! :)
TRADITION, QUALITY AND REFINEMENT
First of all, many will wonder what a bistro is and how it differs from a restaurant. A bistro is essentially a small restaurant (or, by origin, a tavern) where you can taste typical dishes at prices a little lower than those of real restaurants. In the bistros you can also simply sit down to have a drink or a coffee, just like what happened in the French bistros of the past. In the past, many artists and writers took refuge in bistros to create their masterpieces, since they didn't have the money to heat the houses or rooms they lived in.
Having said that, during a trip out of town we decided to choose Bistrot Muralto for our lunch.
The interior is characterized by bright windows and small wooden furnishings: it seems that time has really stopped.
The outside has tables in the sun and in the shade which reflect the style of the internal rooms.
The cuisine is supervised by chef Davide Grosso and includes excellent quality local ingredients. Few courses but not at all banal, which transport you to an affordable but extremely refined culinary experience.
Vegan and gluten-free specialties for each course, absolutely not to be underestimated.
The bread, obviously free, is produced at home and is served in practical paper bags.
The portions of the dishes are not abundant, but quality comes first.
The bathroom reserved for customers is clean, very spacious and has a sink both inside the bathroom and in the entrance preceding it.
However, the visit was missing paper towels or hand drying devices: a shame, especially given the times we are living in.
The staff is friendly, attentive to detail and available to explain the origin of the dishes.
The bistro has maintained traditions: prices are very competitive compared to other competitors in the historic center.
The cover charge is €2 per person.
An appetizer, two first courses, two desserts, two sparkling waters and two place settings cost €52.
Advised!
With a relaxed vibe perfect for any meal, this spot consistently impresses with its fresh offerings and welcoming atmosphere.

I often go there on different occasions... from breakfast, lunch to dinner and after... everything is always delicious and fresh. Very kind staff. I have special food needs as I am gluten intolerant. But they have never disappointed me, I go alone with friends and I recommend anyone... always stuffed!😍
