Tripadvisor's advice proved more than right. A typical ticinese atmosphere with outstanding food. We were pampered with excellent food in the next door five star hotel restaurant of the albergo Orselina and wanted something more local. This was the right choice: I had a tasty sepia dish of highest standard as a starter, my companion chose a pasta dish with tomato vodka sauce, also outstanding. The main course was less extraordinary, a good portion of roastbeef with an excellent tartar sauce and a typical beef stew with port sauce and a remarkable polenta. The portions were so genereous that we could not eat a dessert, unfortunately, because the home-made caramel flan looked so tempting. A go...
We ate at this restaurant twice while staying in Orselina. It was so good we had to go back a second time. The restaurant is small and our second visit was on a Saturday evening. We did not have a reservation. Still, they made accommodations for us. At the end of the meal, the chef came to our table and asked if we were pleased and yes we were. This is one of our favorite restaurants in Switzerland. We cannot imagine coming to Locarno and not dining here. There is seating outside weather permitting. It is a good idea to make reservations or arrive very early. The waitress was very helpful even though she spoke no English. A lot of local residents dine here.
A small, family-run restaurant built into the hillside. Warm open fire in winter, outdoor seating area in summer.The menu was excellent. Prices not cheap, but reasonable by Swiss standards (two meals, with non-alcoholic drinks, under 100 CHF). It is not an extensive menu, but everything is freshly booked.The restaurant was fairly busy despite the fact that we went in low season, when the cable car and funicular to/from Orselino were both shut. We enjoyed our first evening here so much that we came back on another day, and had another excellent meal.
This restaurant is delicious if you want to try the typical regional food from a Grotto. Ornella and Kurt make you feel like a friend offering a superb service and an amazing food! Don't miss the Penne a la Vodka or the traditional chicken wings with the secret butter sauce! You will never forget the taste!! It's just delicious. The restaurant itself is very cosy with fireplace and typical Italian grotto flair! Thank you to the team for filling our stomach many many times with delicious food! We love this place!

Walked across the street from Villa Orselina for one of the best dinners ever. Had a veal dish over some of the best risotto ever! The veal was topped with mushrooms and crusty prosciutto which made for an excellent combo. Unfortunately this was a specific for the event so you would have to cross fingers that it was available. I'm not a big fan of risotto but this was exceptional. Don't pass this up!!
Popped over to this place while staying at Villa Orselina across the road. Really lovely "grotto" style restaurant with a rustic atmosphere and excellent food. It's not cheap, but worth it for the taste, quality and freshness of the ingredients - probably the best Parma ham and melon dishes I've ever had. Friendly service and an extensive wine lost with some local Ticanese options. Would recommend.
The family and myself went to eat dinner here a bit late, it was just after 21:30 and the kitchen was close to closing but they were so kind to let us order food and dessert which was very well presented, fresh and tasty! The atmosphere is nice and cosy. Definitely reccomend coming to eat here! We all were very happy with everything and the staff that served us were friendly!
