"I didn’t like Lugano: an inflated bubble, a dummy, a parody of Monte Carlo. Noisy, bustling, full of poor people and Russians from Russia. I won’t write about the little things, I want to write about the last straw: the lie when reserving the “I Due Sud” restaurant with a Michelin star. We called in advance to reserve a table, they made an appointment for Sunday, and warned us about the strict dress code. We dressed up like fools, arrived at the appointed time, and... the restaurant was CLOSED. We thought that the entrance to the restaurant was further away, so we went looking. We came across the Veranda cafe and decided to ask their hostess about our restaurant. And the hostess answers: “What restaurant...Your reservation is with us, at the Veranda cafe.” We were stunned. We did not expect such impudence! Already on the spot, we learned from the cafe employees that the “I Due Sud” restaurant is open only 3 days a week: Thursday, Friday, Saturday. To say that they would be outraged is not enough. We felt humiliated and complete idiots. After a serious conversation with the head waiter of the Veranda cafe, it turned out that employees often do such tricks with reservations in order not to lose customers. But really, what's the difference between eating in a restaurant with a Michelin star or in a cafe? Dear Michelin employees, there is no difference! In general, it was as if we didn’t go to Lugano (Switzerland), but to Antalya (Turkey). Some kind of clownery. We’ve never been to this part of Switzerland, we came for the first time for a couple of days and managed to turn into suckers. We do not advise anyone to visit this canton of Switzerland."

Wir gingen ohne Erwartungen in das Restaurant, da wir in dem Hotel wohnten, in dem es sich befindet. Wir waren angenehm überrascht von einem hervorragenden Essen und großartigem Service.

Freshly cooked meals made out of top quality ingredients. You really can flavor the quality, my sister and I were definitely very impressed. Didn't wait long to be offered, meal arrived promptly. Really like this place, not too expensive. My brother and sis suggested it to me, was not unfulfilled, lovely food and good price also. We actually want to thank the staff for making my brother's birthday so special. View menu

The meal I ate was very delicious. But I will say that the passion fruit cheese cake with white chocolate should be taken off the menu. There were too many components that didn't go together. Cheesecake is my favorite desert and I was just disappointed. I always finish my food and I left most of it. The risotto and sea urchin pasta were very nice. Nothing to complain about. The service and atmosphere were a stand out in a good way. And the last thing, I think they could give much better bread at the beginning of the meal.

A magnificent meal. As much for the eyes as for the taste buds. It was a great dining experience. 2 exceptional menus to choose from. We had a full seasonal menu, with the selection of accompanying wines. Wines and dishes were perfectly matched, congratulations to the cook and the sommelier who are very talented. The sommelier provided very interesting explanations. The 3 servers and sommelier present were all very professional and very smiling. The atmosphere is very soft, the choice of colors delightful and the music by the pianist in the bar next door is very pleasant. An exceptional meal to end a week which was no less exceptional for us.
