Al Vas - Brenzone

We've been to the dinner restaurant NIN, which offers fine dining experience, consisting of fixed menus with either 9 or 12 courses. The chef is specialized on molecular kitchen and has mastered his profession with Ferran Adria. The result is an interesting journey through the evening. Putting in a nutshell interesting, nothing to regret, but we wouldn't repeat it. The concentration of all the ingredients to it's core taste did work sometimes and sometimes it did not. The staff was brilliant and really tried to enhance our experience but somehow the corresponding ambience was missing; it still was the same room we had our daily breakfast in. And, let's be honest, the price was quite remarkable. At half the price we would have been able to enjoy typical Italian food a couple of hundred meters away.

Good menu during the day up to 7pm after light menu with only few items such aspiece of pizza or lasagne with meat sauce or a salade with cheese and cold meat..can have diner on the deck over the lake

The ambiance of having the water around you, the mountains in front and behind and soft music makes for a perfect dining experience. Then the food: a very fresh mixed salad, a generous portion of Caprese and the largest Bronzino fish that we have ever shared. The fish was perfectly seasoned and cooked and was accompanied roasted potatoes and sautéed mixed vegetables. Superb! A nice bottle of Vermentino accompanied this meal. We will be back for sure!

Book a table on the jetty! Just about as idyllic a dining experience as it's possible to have. Superb staff, great food and not enough superlatives to describe the setting.

This place looked so good, unfortunately didn't live up to its reviews or expectations. Location is amazing at the end of the pier in a perfect location. Service was great initially. We must have chosen the wrong food on our visit. I've never had a stranger experience on quality of food in a nice restaurant. We chose a special 4 course tasting menu and I wouldn't recommend anyone else has this. Starter was scallops, this was actually one scallop thinly sliced in to 3, and coated in thick sesame seeds. So overpowering that you could only taste the sesame. Second was ravioli, taste was ok, presentation was shocking. Main was prawns done in balsamic and strawberries. This was weird and a really heavy taste. Overall pretentious and trying too hard. Wine was the only saving grace. We told waiter what we thought when asked and he didn't do anything to resolve. Still charged full price. At 45 euro plus 8 euro for bread, was poor value. I couldn't recommend.
