We use only the best ingredients in our dishes, garnished with herbs from our own garden. The key to our pasta in particular is that everything is fresh and homemade. Your plate will look like a work of art in miniature.
Our restaurant with the romantic courtyard
The trattoria, in the heart of Ascona’s Old Town, unites gastronomy with the renowned zest for life of the Ticinese. Whether you’re dining in the courtyard that hosts weekly jazz concerts or on the panoramic rooftop terrace, the trattoria serves an eclectic blend of Ticino specialities and Mediterranean classics.
Siblings Lorenzo and Olivia make this a place where all friends of “la bella vita” can enjoy stirring blues music over a good glass of wine.
During the jazz concerts on Saturday evenings, a three-course menu is served in the courtyard. Please note that there is no à la carte service available. The rooftop terrace is open for aperitifs but not for dinner.
