Vetta - Lugano

Excellent frozen desserts served bigger than in the photos!!

The cuisine is good, hearty and typical of the region. The service is attentive…. But we must serve wine at the table. The furniture is a little old and not very high-end. The view is beautiful .

The Vetta San Salvatore restaurant stands out for its extremely friendly service and delicious food, especially after a long hike. The lasagna is juicy and the fried cheese is a delicious delicacy. In addition, the restaurant offers a breathtaking viewpoint from which you can fully enjoy the surroundings. However, it should be noted that the restaurant's facilities, with concrete floors and plastic chairs, do not meet the highest aesthetic standards. Nevertheless, the positive aspects of the friendly service and delicious food outweigh the negatives, making the visit a worthwhile experience.

Unfortunately the quality of the food was very poor. We ordered the perch filet with butter and sage sauce with parmesan risotto. The risotto was probably rice cooked in cream, not seasoned with wine, vegetable stock, onion/garlic or other spices. The fish fillet was small breaded pieces of fish that were probably deep fried or fried in copious amounts of butter. No fishy taste noticeable anymore. The sauce consisted of sage leaves fried in butter. Plates carelessly arranged. Overall, the second most expensive dish on the menu was not recommended. Even cafeteria food is better! The gnocchi was also ordered with Gorgonzola sauce and saffron. Gorgonzola was not tasted, saffron dominates the whole meal. Children's dish (macaroni with tomato sauce) was served cold and the tomato sauce was probably not homemade. Absolutely not recommended restaurant for food. Poor quality at completely exorbitant prices. 0 points!!!

Just had a drink with family. So I don't comment on the food. Just one star less because it’s complicated to attract the waiter’s attention to pay when it’s time to take the cable car…
