Al Gondoliere is highly praised for its authentic Italian cuisine, particularly its fresh seafood and homemade pastas. Diners rave about the romantic ambiance, especially the balcony seating, and the exceptional, friendly service provided by staff like Mohammed and Nadir.

"We had dinner at this restaurant and it was simply perfect! The waiters, Mohammed and Nadir, made the experience truly special – very friendly, professional, and always helpful. Their service really completed the whole evening.
The food was excellent – just like in the pictures. The fish was especially flavorful, and both the starter and the dessert were absolutely delicious.
The location is quiet and stylish – perfect for a date or an elegant dinner.
We’ll definitely be coming back – it’s saved in our list!"

"The beef fillet was sooooo good! Sliced through it like butter. It was juicy and had a tint of a burn, like it came grilled from a flame. The permezan addition with mushroom sauce & vegetables was amazing too. We got a nice limoncello at the end! 10/10 dinner experience."

"It is the best Italian restaurant in Malcesine. Food was delicious so was House wine. I strongly recommend gnocchi, pasta with shrimps and grilled fresh fish. It was possible to swap some side dishes from main menu with fresh vegetables that were just divines! Stuff was very friendly and welcoming. For the short stay we visited this place twice and could eat there again. Strongly recommend to eat and drink at Al Gondoliere. You feel that they are dedicated to keep this place on top."
