Very tasty meal! The specialty, chicken! The lamb was also very tender! Beautiful and cozy, in a cave!

We dropped in and were lucky that they had a free table for us. We were recommended the house speciality, the chicken with risotto. And this one was amazingly good! Very nice staff and cozy room. Recommended!

Simply great! Idyllically located, right in the town center. Restaurant in a historic and typical Ticino stone vault. 1A cuisine, warm atmosphere, very reasonable prices. Plus great wines. What more do you need? After a first visit we came back straight away, certainly not for the last time.

We had the pleasure of celebrating my wife's birthday at Grotto Al Capone in Brione and it was simply wonderful! The restaurant is a bit hidden, but the friendly and courteous landlady and the entire team made this evening unforgettable. We are already looking forward to our next visit!

Hospitality is still alive here!!! 🫶🏼 Authentic, warm and you feel VERY welcome. The ambience is pure grotto, homely and very clean. Plus the incredibly fine, fresh food, which was served very hot. Top! We enjoyed Mistkratzerli, crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and spaghetti aglio. Thank you Priska & the whole team for the wonderful evening, we will definitely be back. 😊 Monika & Marc

A beautiful grotto in the hidden side streets of Brione, a very lovingly decorated restaurant, very friendly service and excellent cuisine. The fish dish from Thursday (tuna tanche on ratatouille) and the pork fillet with mushroom cream sauce were very tasty and prepared with love. We can only warmly recommend this grotto.

We've been there a few times and are always thrilled. Very professionally run restaurant and yet you can still feel a good team spirit. This affects the guests. Nice hosts, great service, great atmosphere, dignified ambience, beautiful location and a clear and tasty menu. We have brought friends or family with us a few times and everyone has always been thrilled. It's just the whole package that's true and we always feel very comfortable. Our No. 1 in the region ☺️

Just genius. Almost everything on the menu can be prepared gluten-free or is already gluten-free. The owner is very knowledgeable about celiac disease. There was even gluten-free tiramisu. The taste was perfect and the portions were also very good. Ambience also great in an old stone house. I recommend it 100%. The service was also world class - thanks for this successful evening.

The service staff is very courteous but not intrusive at all. The food is very good, there are decent portions, the price is fair and the wine list has a good selection. The menu is manageable but offers enough alternatives and no things are offered that do not belong in a Ticino grotto. Reservations are therefore usually required. Hopefully again soon!

Do you want to enjoy Ticino cuisine and wine? Do you want this in a typical Ticino ambience, a classic grotto? And this is garnished by the warm hostess Prisca and her team, who literally read your wishes from your lips (in Italian, English and German)! Then the Grotto al Capon is an absolute must! I have been enjoying the hospitality, cuisine, ambience and atmosphere for more than 5 years. And every visit is a highlight.

The Grotti is a real Ticino house and we liked it. The rest was very well attended, but only German-Swiss people. The food was of course primarily German-Swiss food but well cooked. We are looking for authentic grottis and cuisine - we were disappointed.

The restaurant, the food and the warm, family-like welcome from the owner are worth my 5 stars. Sorry that I have to say this, but something like that is missing here in Germany.

What a bad welcome and not traditional! We wanted to eat, barely a good evening before we were told that they were no longer taking tables (at 7:45 p.m.), we then asked (We proposed a solution ourselves ) if we could have an aperitif while waiting for a table to become available, we mumbled an unconvincing yes and the person left... Another arrives, looks at us, up and down like dirty people, we greet her straight away. even and she doesn't answer us! It made our blood run cold, we left. We are from Ticino and this welcome is not worthy of a Grotto! According to their response to this comment, they still have not understood that the problem comes from the cold welcome and not from the fact that there was no table available (which once again proves the casualness facing customers. They don't need it so why be nice to those who won't eat?)…
