Bellariva - Maggia

Pizzeria Bellariva is in my opinion a family restaurant. It is run by 4 brothers and you can see them working just like anyone else. The restaurant is located right next to the TCS Camping Gordevio Vallemaggia . Lot of families with children come to restaurant and there is a place where the kids can play while the food is ready. Food is great and the atmosphere is superb. My favorite orders were the pasta aglio olio peperoncino and the pizza bellariva. You can order half portion of pasta as appetizer and then finish with a fabolous pizza. The Waitstaff is very friendly and helpful, even the cooks sometime interact wit the guests. The restaurant don 't take credit cards, only cash. In any moment I felt like I was rushed, in the contrary they want you to enjoy the food and your company. If you already live in Switzerland then perhaps you can consider this restaurant in the very affordable category, but for the rest of us that come from other EU countries it 's not cheap and that is thanks to the exchange rate and because the standar of living in Switzeland is higher. A pizza might cost between CHF15 CHF18.50 (EUR13/USD15 EUR17/USD19). Dinner for a family of 5 including appetizers and drinks might costs you EUR160/USD180. But again if you have chosen Switzerland as your vacation destination then you surely are well aware of that you have to spend some extra . I highly recommend the place, kids love it, Ahhh don forget to order a boccalino of red or withe house wine!!

Great food and good staff in the heart of the Vallemaggia. It isn't expensive but the food is great!

In addition to the long wait to be served, I'm really disappointed..... We waited at least 30 minutes before they came to take our order, and the wait for the drinks!

Large selection of pizzas. We liked the Grottino pizza best. It's great that there's free tap water to drink! Ideal for families.

ToP staff! You feel a bit like at home... there isn't that feeling you get in some places that want to kick you out as soon as possible! Food Good! What can I say... recommended!
