Loverciano - Tisch reservieren

We wanted to take our nephew to Loverciano for his first taste of venison on his last evening with us before returning home. When shown to our seats I was shocked to see that just a few tables away a family of five were dining and that a child of about five was being "entertained" by an Ipad or Ibook which was faced towards the rest of the room....with the volume on. If parents are unable to take their children out for a family meal in a restaurant without the support of IT I suggest that they all stay at home and practise the art of conversation instead.... However the fact that the proprietors allowed such an intrusion is astounding.The first courses were good but the desserts were a huge disappointment - a mille feuille which lacked some 997 feuilles with a pale and tasteless cream filling which might just have seen a solitary egg and the chocolate pudding's vanilla sauce was also anaemic, thin and insipid. All this with the child's abandoned cartoons as "background music" and a bill for nearly 200chfrs for three.....not good enough and we have vowed not to go back.

We stopped there for lunch during a hike around Mendrisio. The owner kindly welcomed us and seated us at a table on their beautiful terrace, conveniently placed in the shade of trees.We ordered "today's special", which our friendly waiter brought very quickly. Our food was very tasty and our mouths also watered from looking at our neighbours' dishes! We recommend having a glass of Merlot di Ticino with your meal.For families, there is also a big and seemingly very entertaining playground.A lovely experience!

If you like to eat under a nice cover of trees that's the place. Food spans from grilled meat to Salumi, nothing really remarkable, you pay for the location. Mind no panoramas though. There are nicer places very close which come with wonderful views of the valleys around Mendrisio and Generoso. Very convenient for a business lunch.

Very pleasant place with wonderfull dishes. They make perfect Risotto, spareribs, nyoki. They also have a good local wine. Only one problem: There is no English menu (only Italian) and the waiters don't speak English, too. But I really like this place!

Typical tessinois food all well presented and well cooked with a menu which follows the seasons. Do not expect any experimentation or wild combinations but basic decent food.
