What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
This lakeside restaurant offers stunning views of Lake Garda and a lively atmosphere. Diners rave about the delicious pizzas and traditional Italian dishes, particularly the fresh seafood and pasta. While the ambiance and views are consistently praised, some guests have noted occasional issues with service speed and consistency, and a few found certain dishes to be lacking in flavor or portion size.
"I would have never expected to leave a place super enthused for their salad but Nikolas accomplished that.
We drove for over an hour along Garda lake on our first exploration of that area of the world.
Blessed by a day of sunlight in a fortnight of bad weather we arrived at Malcesine ready for lunch. We wanted something light and fast.
Malcesine is a beautiful village overlooking the lake. Going down a ramp one can find Nikolas, almost at the end of a pier.
Perfect location for a tourist trap (as easily 90% of the guests were tourists).
We decided to stop there anyway and just lower the expectations. It would have been ok for that instance.
Then saw pizzas platters of fries seafood passing by. Then we saw pasta passing by. And they were all delicious.
Our salads tasted amazing. Every single ingredient, taken individually, was tasty and presented in a lovely refreshing way. Even the small mozzarellas, which normally would be tasteless when consumed in the north of Italy, were tasty!
The view improved the experience even more.
Service was pleasant.
What a beautiful surprise."

"A beautiful place with a spectacular view on Lake Garda. You can sit on the terrace very close to the water. The food is good, the service is friendly and some of the waiters have a good sense of humor. I will definitely come back."

30/06/2024: We visited here for dinner twice during our holiday and really enjoyed our meals. The restaurant has a fantastic location on the port, with lake views, and there is a great choice of seating, both indoors and outdoors. We found the value very reasonable too.
