Ox Pub and Grill Como — Restaurant in Como

Where do I start? Everything was just perfect. It was our first trip to Italy and we visited Lake como on day 2 and honestly it was a beautiful and best day. We had not eaten anything for breakfast. We hiked quite a lot and we were so hungry and went to make sure we go to a best place and give our body the best. And I guess we made the right decision. We order chicken salad, burschetta, pistachio pizza, non alcoholic mojitos and tiramisu. It was out of the world. Everything was delicious. I’m a holistic health coach and I make sure I avoid eaten gluten and I had told myself if I have to, I would in Italy and honestly it was the best. No discomfort whatsoever, super light pizza n it was mindblowing. If you visit, you should try pistachio pizza it’s amazing!! I meant it

The staff is super friendly and great sea lake view too. All in all it was worth...

A very enthusiastic host caught us looking at the menu and skipped (literally skipped) over to us. I found her a little OTT as she went through every item on the menu, but she sold my partner on the sea food pasta so we decided to give it a try! I got the pasta carbonara and my partner went with the sea food pasta! Both portions were way too big, the sea food was rubbery and not fresh. The bacon was fatty and the dish was very rich. The service was beyond slow, we didn’t get offered water, a second drink or a dessert menu. When I tried to ask for a dessert menu every waiter wouldn’t engage in eye contact. When the food came out the waiter tried to feed my other half, using his finger to ensure the food stayed on the fork! He did this with several other guests also. I wouldn’t recommend. The pizzas that came out looked the best on the menu! Below...

Seeing the pictures of those pizzas before going to this restaurant, we were expecting great food.. But sadly our experience was absolutely disappointing. The pizza crust was burnt but the bottom was really burnt badly that you couldn’t enjoy the pizza. The dough was quite chewy and the dough was definitely not well-ripened because the pizza was hard to digest. In addition we thought that the waiter was in the beginning quite friendly, but this was all just a fake mask, an act to get a tip. Nobody asked us if the food is okay & midst eating we had nothing to drink anymore and we were just ignored. And in the end after eating the burnt pizza when we payed the bill we gave a small tip & the waiter was demanding very rudely to give him a even bigger tip. I wouldn’t recommend anybody to go there. There are way better restaurants...
