Mamma Ciccia Café

Bang on, this spot.
It only has limited seating but it’s worth a visit or two to try and get in.
Not only is the food flavourful and of good quality, it also has some exceptional service.
The head waiter here as an eye for detail like you wouldn’t expect at a place that also feels casual in a way.
Working at a speed that somehow still looks elegant, he tends to the tables, makes jokes and makes you feel extraordinarily welcome.
The whole Mamma Ciccia café is designed for such a casual excellence, I’ve never regretted the fact I didn’t have cash on me for a good tip. I’ll have to go back to make good this fault.

Very nice place. We had Cacio e Pepe, which was amazing. Tiramisu for dessert was also really nice. Would come back.

My hubby and I had the most delish lunch here today and sat outside in the warm sunshine. All the staff were so lovely and welcoming, the food was tasty - we got the vitello tonato, lasagne and Cacio e Pepe pasta along with a few spritzes and sample the local Mandello white wine too. A must visit when in this beautiful town. My fav on the lake. Thanks for having us team.

Incredible service & great with allergies!

Amazing food - must visit if in the area! Every course was amazing - pasta, pizza and dessert ...
Great service and staff too!

This is a first class cooking experience from beginning to end! I highly recommend it! Incredible!

Really nice spot for dinner! All the dishes we had were amazing, especially the maccheroni al torchio was extremely tasty. Even though the waiter was on his own and was running all the time, he kept a good overview on all the tables and was super friendly. Thanks for the wonderful evening!

We came for a late dinner so unfortunately the inside of the restaurant was full. We sat outside, but the staff was very thoughtful and offered us blankets as it was a bit chilly.
Friendly staff and fairly priced food. 100% recommend.

The place is very popular (and rightly so), so almost impossible to get a table without reservations, but we showed up in pouring rain and with a hangry child, so the staff were super accommodating to still find a way to seat us and serve a really delicious dinner. Thoroughly recommended!

Best place to eat in mandello de lario, great value for money

cute outdoor set up with friendly staff. food was also good - highly recommend the fish ravioli!

Great food, fair price and excellent service! Buonissimo!

Most excellent food, great service! One of our favorites in town. Thank you

My wife and I participated in the cooking class , followed by lunch of our hand made creations.
From start to finish, the whole experience was professional, informative, and genuinely enjoyable. Bravo!

Attentive, very friendly front of house staff. Lovely food at a good price, definitely recommend.

Try the experience of the "cooking academy", genuine, fun, and the food is as good as you prepare it :-) Our daughter (14 y.o.) took the class and loved it. Learn to make fresh pasta the Italian way!

Extraordinary Restaurant with the best Pinse, good service and calm surrounding.

Beautiful food and impeccable service. Would highly recommend.

Perfect combination of hospitality quality food and drinks and if you wanna sleep there s no better place where to stay

Der Service war top! Man hat sich jederzeit wohl gefühlt und es wurde sich darum gekümmert das es auch so bleibt.
Das Essen war vorzüglich und es gab nichts auszusetzen.
Wir waren 2 Abende und 3 mal Frühstücken, da wir im Hauseigenem Hotel einen schönen Kurzurlaub hatten.
