Caffe Sociale - Riva San Vitale

Here for Father's Day Birthday Cordon Bleu Festival. Delicious food, large portions, excellent service.

In a picturesque corner of Riva San Vitale, there is a hidden treasure called Ristorante Sociale. A place where culinary art meets passion and excellent service. Alessandro and his dining room staff, with their impeccability, welcome you like old friends, ready to guide you on an unforgettable sensory journey. The meat, succulent and cooked to perfection, the pizza, with its perfect balance of crunchiness and softness, will leave you speechless, while the gnocchi with meat sauce will win the hearts (and palates) of the little ones, promising to become a sweet memory and persistent. This restaurant is not just a place to eat, but a social experience to live, share and remember. Highly recommended to anyone who wishes to savor the essence of true Italian cuisine, enriched by a touch of human warmth and professionalism

Very good food! Absolutely delicious! The tables outside were very nice and it had a wonderful atmosphere. They all spoke pretty good English, there was a little mix with one of our drinks orders, but we think that was just a language barrier so we don't owe them. The bill at the end was what you expect at Swiss prices, but the food and drink was so beautiful it was worth everything.

The second worst ravioli in my whole life. Swimming in butter just as bad as you can see on the photo I pushed the ravioli to the side. Even the children couldn't eat it. I'm very sorry to write such bad comments, but I feel I have to share. Since it is CORONA and we really need to take care of customers, but I don't feel that the personal in this restaurant care at all. The waiter brought from a neighboring table left over used cheese with a USED OLD spoon inside, the neighboring table used it already and when he gave it to us, right in front of my eyes, I could not believe it. But on the other hand, he was a polite man. Pizzas were also bad. It would have been better to throw the money into the lake. I was very disappointed and starved.

Wenn man in Riva San Vitale auf dem grossen Parkplatz parkiert, ist man schon am Restaurant vorbei gefahren. Es liegt ganz unscheinbar etwas zurück versetzt neben dem Parkplatz oder direkt gegenüber vom Denner. Beim Eintreten steht man erst in einem kleinen Vorraum, wo rechts davon die Bar liegt, und in linker Richtung der Eingang zum Restaurant. Treten Sie ein....ein grosser Saal tut sich auf, der geschmackvoll eingerichtet ist. Diskret Unterteilt sodass man vom Nachbar nicht gestört wird. Im Sommer sitzt man gerne auf der Terrasse, unter den Bäumen. Die Bocciabahn wird noch rege benutzt. Das Personal ist sehr freundliche und zuvorkommend. Das Essen ist hervorragend. Ich gehe immer wieder gerne ins Caffe' Sociale zum Essen, zum Apéro oder einfach nur zum Eis essen.Fantastisches Eiscrème, auf für Take-away.Brauchen Sie nach dem Essen einen Spaziergang? In zwei Minuten sind sie am See, und in 10 Minuten im Baptisterium; es stammt aus dem 5. Jahrhundert.und ist das älteste christliche Bauwerk der Schweiz. Auch sonst lohnt es sich, das Dorf zu besichtigen.
