Bar the Molo Ranco — Restaurant in Ranco

Only one nice thing about the place is the location, shame that this is what attracts people to go there. The food is literally the worst food I have ever had in my life, also for my Italian husband. And I am not even over exaggerating. You would think it's impossible to have bad food in Italy, but it is possible. We literally had the pasta swimming in the water on our plate, absolutely disgusting. The service is terrible too, initially, it took forever to get served. Then we finally managed to get served (after asking numerous waiters to come), and they only look annoyed. Once we got our drinks, one of the waiters spilled a glass all over me and my baby's pram. The beer went everywhere. Noone came to clean it up. I had to use my baby wipes to try to clean my baby's pram.

This is coming from both me and my...

Finally the food and wine arrived after 50 minutes of waiting while we were eaten by mosquitoes .....

Views are great of the lake. They give you nibbles with your drinks and the food does not look too bad either! They have live music on a Thursday evening, but it's packed... People get boats there across the lake. I even canoed there. Beers are expensive, but wine is reasonably priced, same across Italy as far as I can tell. The local rose was great chilled in the...
