Semi Di Grano - PERLEDO

This restaurant was the best of many great restaurants that we dined at in Italy. The menu is so creative and every item was very delicious. It is very hard to find, so you must have good directions. Only 6 tables inside or outside depending on the weather. You must have a reservation as the chef is basically cooking just for you and a few other diners. This is a truly special place that feels like you have stumbled upon a secret dinner spot in the basement of someones home or on their private patio. If you are in the Varenna area, you must make the effort to dine here!

First of all Semi de Grano is one of the most beautiful and romantic garden restaurants we‘ve ever been. Every corner is lovingly decorated, so you can discover small details over and over again. Guests are sitting under a wine roof. Lights made of old wine bottles are illuminating the garden. Soft music accompanies the the relaxed and calm ambient. The restaurant is perfect for a romantic candle light dinner as well as for a family dinner. We were there with our two children who loved their pasta with butter and cheese. The menu is small and exquisite with each two starters, primi and secondi. We chose eggs with zucchini, fish carpaccio, risotto with beetroot and the catch of day from lake Como. As dessert we chose Creme Brûlée with blueberries and Panna Cotta with Rose flavoring, salt and chocolate crumble. All of it was very delicious with an exceptional taste and as well, lovingly decorated. In sum we had a wonderful and delightful evening. Therefor we would highly recommend.

Incredible meal, amazing value and great staff. What a gem. You can easily get a taxi from Varenna to get there. Couldn’t recommend it more!

Great atmosphere in a very unique location. drove in the night and thought I would go into a lost world. incredible local food and refined menu on what is fresh to the time.
