CO.MO Bar & Bistrot — Restaurant in Blevio

Come for the view, do not bother with the food

The views are among the best at Lake Como and therefore it is okay to pay 22$ for burrata, 25$ for a pasta, 38$ for a burger, 14$ for a beer, and have a Chateau Petrus on the menu

That said, I spend a lot of time in hotels and the corresponding restaurants and bars, this was by far among the most mediocre ones when it comes to food and beverages

Bread tasted like everywhere else, and the carbonated one seems a bit 2016, service was trying, really trying, ordered got messed up, altough it they should have simply let one ingredient off

given that it is the hotels first season (pre 2019 hotel was called the CastaDiva Resort) there is some room to get better

From three waiters around when everyone is eating, to no waiters around while three table tried to order and get the bill, for a Mandarin Oriental that is just off

Coffee was good, but Starbucks delivers better taste with lower quality ingredients, desserts were also a bit boring

One more advice, you can book a table on opentable through the hotel website, I cannot say if these will get you patio seating, so in case that matters to you, a call might be better

It is also good to know that the hotel will be closed according to staff from November 15th to March1st

The only reason I still give this a four is for the views, and the assumption that this was a one off, because MO's are usually...

We had one of the most amazing vegetarian meals ever at the Mandarin Oriental Lake Como Italy. It was so unexpected as we just wanted to enjoy the scenery with a few drinks. The time flew by so fast that we just decided to stay and have some dinner. Best decision yet. We ordered the veg and vegan items on the menu not knowing it was so unbelievably delicious. The tomato on tomato dish ~ Pappa al pomodoro, basilico was the star of the night. Our server Andrei described the dish as creaminess inside a tomato. 🤔 He was absolutely right. 😍❤️ The tomato salad was second to none that we ever tasted. Fresh, plump and with just the right amount of acidity. It's just that simple!

The Agretti saltani which is a string like vegetable that was indescribable and we treated that as our pasta dish. It was so good that we reordered. 😍❤️For our main course, we had the Eggplant parmigiani, it is not your ordinary Eggplant parmigiana. This was at whole different level and when you drizzle some of their table side olive oil on it, the dish just elevated to another dimension.

This is most probably one of the best vegeterian meals we ever had for so long. It was unplanned and yet It reminds us that sometimes being spontaneous is the...

Although this is not my first time to dine here, but the most disappointing experience I had, for starts I ordered crispy zucchini flower, which was Not Crispy at all and served cold, for main course I ordered their diavola chicken it was so tasteless like it was not spiced with anything and the sauce was so sweet rather then spicy and what was worst it was not cooked well in the center though they said it’s was slow cooked for 4 hours !!! So I called the waiter whom didn’t apologize for the disgusting seen of a raw chicken in the middle of summer which is a health hazard she brushed it of and said that’s normal to keep the chicken juicy !!! but if you like we can cook it more so I said ok but it came back so bad it was bad from the start to be honest so tried to play it safe and tried to not leave hungry I ordered a pizza which came after a long time burned!!! Other than that they messed up my son order and got his drink so late after we finished eating and it was just a coca cola zero !!! The only good thing about this place is the view and just to walk around take a memorable photos. In my opinion sadly the spectacular place and view is taking...
