At the foot of the castle

Il Ristorantino del Castello is at Piazza Giuseppe Mazzini, 14, the square that opens beneath the towers of the Odescalchi castle. Chef Mirko Di Giammarino opened it in 2018, and it is the natural lunch before or after the visit: you leave the castle and the table is a hundred metres away. It has a dining room and a terrace on the square.

What to order

The menu follows the cooking of the lake villages, with plenty of freshwater fish and vegetables, and a land section with fresh pasta, meat sauces and good cuts. It is cooked to order with the day's shopping and the menu changes with the season. There are menu proposals for groups and celebrations.
