Tremezzo has also a gourmet restaurant. La Terrazza is named after Gualtiero Marchesi, the first Italian chef who was in 1985 awarded with 3 Michelin stars and asked the guide in 1988 to remove him from the list.
During our tour we were told now the spirit would live in Tremezzo, as La Terrazza now has his recipes and his stars. OK, in fact the restaurant isnīt mentioned at guide Michelin (as every restaurant at Tremezzo)
The restaurant is located in a kind of wintergarden.


Personally itīs not what I understand under an elegant restaurant, but lets say itīs Lake Como style.

Amuse Bouche was egg with caviar. Solid.
If you have a look on the menu you mention that they have high ambitions. The tasting menu is 180,00 € for 4 courses and 200,00 € for 5 courses. We ordered a la carte.
First the bread.
s
Similar to the offerings at the bar. Unfortunately again dry and of low quality. At many horse paddocks such a bread would result in loud protest.
Starters
The great fish starter (Dill marinated salmon, Scallops with ginger, Spaghetti with caviar, Prawns on pepper sauce, Squid with its ink)

Great was the price of 62,00 €. The rest was quite solid, but nothing special. Disappointing.
Lobster on sweet pepper sauce

It was OK. With 48,00 € not too cheap.
First course
Open raviolo with scallops and sole

I found it not very good, GF liked it. 42,00 €.
Lobster with maccaroni, lobster sauce

For 52,00 € it was again ambitious. I found the taste too strong. It wasnīt really bad, but also not really good. Mediocre.
Main course
Salmon, red and white wine sauce


42,00 €, quality solid
Monkfish in cuttlefish ink and gazpacho sauce

46,00 € - when it came I was speechless. Very small and a little wired. The sauce (we know it from the starters) was solid, the fish killed by ink. Not good.
Dessert? We didnīt order in advance and decided we skip it. We were not convinced we would enjoy it.
Two word about the service: Not good.
This dinner was the icing on the cake. Itīs not enough to put a famous name on your restaurant and to charge high prices, you also need people who can cook.
