“ If you are looking for a beautiful view, are open to food adventures, and wanting to enjoy sitting and enjoying an amazing meal… eat here! We tried other local places, including Residenza del Lago and this was way better! Details: My husband and I had the pleasure of dining at La Caletta while vacationing throughout Italy over 7 days. We had the best, most delicious meal here of the whole trip! We are foodies and asked Angelo, one of at least 2 waitstaff that spoke english, to help select local dishes. We started with a fantastic sparkling wine from the Piedmont area and a lovely take on Battuta di Fassone. A delicately delicious dish that paired beautifully with the parmesan cheese and the supremely airy and light breadsticks. We then followed with a pasta course of ravioli with egg yolk which was incredibly creamy and decadent. For our main, a baked turbot with sauteed vegetables which was meticulously plated before our eyes and tasted as fresh as fish can come. We then finished with a rich cannoli and a delicately rich tiramisu. A truly perfect meal which I would highly recommend. ”
