We went to eat at this charming little restaurant on a rainy evening. As a starter, we had a platter of local cheeses and cold meats which were delicious (not counting the homemade pepper jam). We ordered a gorgonzola risotto, a shank and beef cheeks. Everything was super good and cooked to perfection! The tiramisù was exquisite, although personally I prefer it with more coffee. We received excellent service from the hosts who own this place. To top it off, we were treated to a little attention from the owner, a limoncello. To recommend!!

Our first encounter at a classic grotto was an excellent one. The family running the restaurant was warm and friendly, and explained the care behind the cooking of each dish. Needless to say, the food was excellent - especially the pork cheeks and the braised beef. Would come back again if we are back in the area!

Lunch with friends who hadn't seen each other for a while, to celebrate my birthday. Very friendly and family environment. Cristina absolutely a super cook. All dishes were exceptional! From Ticino lasagne, to braised meat, to polenta concia etc.. the tiramisu and chestnut cake for dessert are also excellent. Absolutely recommended! thanks again to the owners for the magnificent lunch! ❤️

Saturday night dinner at the Grotto was a truly enjoyable evening. The food is of high quality and the portions are generous. All dishes are well cooked and the presentation is simple and refined. The passion and dedication that Cristina and Roberto place in their business is evident, and makes this place a true jewel of typical and traditional cuisine. I recommend booking because the environment is cozy and the atmosphere is very intimate and familiar.

Everything we had was fantastic. The jam with the cheese plate was very good and I was surprised to find out what it was made from. We enjoyed dinner so much we came back next day for lunch to try the other specials. This is a family run spot we great atmosphere and great staff. By far the best meal we had the whole trip in Switzerland.

I have had lunch several times in this grotto and have always eaten very well. The menu is varied, very good polenta, first courses the same and the second courses are also of good quality. Very nice atmosphere, with tables outside and if you want there is also room inside in case it rains or gets cold. The family management is certainly a winner, he is very kind in the dining room and his wife is certainly an excellent cook. Well done!

I can’t recommend enough the whole experience at Grotto Castagneto. The drive up to the grotto has incredible views at every turn; the overlooks are especially great at sunset. The couple who runs the restaurant is lovely - so welcoming, patient and skillful. Everything we ate was was absolutely delicious, particularly the slow cooked pork over polenta. The authentic and homey ambiance complete the experience - it’s perfect.

1,000% recommend!! I visited this charming, wonderful grotto with my family back in August, and it was one of the best restaurant experiences of our lives! The setting is just perfect - warm and storybooklike. From the moment we arrived, Roberto was so welcoming. It was great talking with him! His wife Christina's food is absolutely divine. Every dish wowed us! I especially loved the apple gorgonzola risotto and the cheesecake. At the end of the meal, Roberto gave us samples of their limoncello which was such a fun conclusion to our amazing night. I highly reccomend Grotto Castagneto to anyone in the Lugano area!

After ordering a platter of cold cuts for 2 people and making a comment on the quantity (three slices each), the owner, instead of responding and justifying the choice professionally, raised his tone. He told me that we are in Switzerland and everything costs more. His grotto is not McDonald's and I, a pilgrim from the Veneto region, was in the wrong place. With an unkind gesture he took the cutting board away from the table and told us to leave. If this is his attitude, it explains why the place was empty in the middle of August. Everything can be discussed but always with education and respect.

Two plates of meat in sauce, a beer, small carafe of wine and a bottle of water...... €110,-!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's why I ate at a Michelin restaurant in Tuscany (4 courses + nice bottle of wine)!!! Sorry, I just had to get this out. You have been warned!

This is a charming, family run Grotto in proximity of Monte Brè. Each time I stay in Lugano, I trek up by public transport to once again experience this wonderful location. The food is made onsite by the family - your taste buds will experience delicious, authentic Italian and Ticinese cuisine: Formaggino ticinese, ricotta gnocchi, osso bucco and polenta, and the salads are so fresh. Homemade ice-cream is also available in the summer. This is a location that is appreciated by locals and the avid traveller that enjoys warm hospitality and flavorsome local food. When you arrive at the main bus stop, in front of the church, you need to walk 5 mins downhill to find this hidden gem. There is a small car park right next to it too. The Grotto is protected by the chestnut trees, which provides welcome shade and also allows the sun to pierce through. The hosts greet each guest warmly and ensure that all generations who are enjoying the meal have a wonderful experience. The owner speaks Italian, French and English. The restaurant and facilities are impeccably clean. After your meal, take a walk through the beautiful town of Brè, and you can catch a beautiful glimpse of Lake Lugano. You can walk up to Monte Brè in 25-30 mins, where you can have a fabulous view of Lake Lugano. From here you can also take the steep Funicolare Monte Brè back down to Lugano. Definitely include this Grotto to your bucket list :)

The food was homemade and delicious, and there was a seat outside even without a reservation. The owner couple is also friendly and quick. But the portions were too small for us, so that in addition to a main course, despite having bread, you would also have to eat a starter and dessert in order to be full. Then the price per person without drinks is more than 40.00, which was too expensive for us. When we responded, we were told that the pasta portion was 160g and that the polenta was already too much for many people. Unfortunately we didn't take any photos of the food.

My wife & I just spent an early evening having dinner at this cute restaurant & we were NOT disappointed. Roberto & Cristina could not have treated us any better & the food was fantastic. A true "home cooked" meal since it is basically run out of their home. This was the perfect change of pace when compared to all of the "typical" restaurants found in Lugano. Keep in mind that Mt. Bre itself is also a must see & do. There are steps that lead up from the bus stop in Mt. Bre paese to the top of Mt. Bre. At the top, you will find a treasure including two pub/restaurants that overlook Lake Lugano. My suggestion is that you head up to the top of Mt. Bre first then head back down & have Cristina & Roberto cook you an awesome dinner at Grotto Castagneto.

A true hidden gem in the small town of Brè above Lugano. The service is incredibly warm and welcoming, and the atmosphere is cozy and feels like home. Of course, the main reason to come is the absolutely delicious food. We ordered both specials. The short ribs were tender and juicy, bursting with flavor in each bite. The risotto was rich and creamy, and the fresh mint(picked from the garden) was the perfect accent to the dish. This was by far the best meal that we’ve had in our two weeks in Europe. We could not recommend this lovely restaurant more and will definitely be back. If you are every staying in Brè, or even Lugano, you’d be missing out if you didn’t visit Grotto Castagneto. It is well worth the drive up.

We went to this grotto with friends from Milan. The journey (we were by car) was definitely worth it. A typical grotto as you would imagine. Beautiful covered garden and simple but authentic grotto inside. We had antipasti platter, various (including vegetarian) dishes. Good Ticino wine (including white Merlot) is available in typical Boccalino's (on request). Dessert was also very tasty. The innkeepers are very, very friendly and helpful (the innkeeper also speaks German/E). All in all very price/performance conscious. We would love to come back (next time with the cog railway)

Very nice location. The waiters were very friendly and kind. We asked for a tartar of red prawn as a starter to share and they brought it already in two plates. The filetto Rossini (steak with foies gras) was very delicious, I didn’t wanted it to finish!! Desert was so creamy and full of flavor.

I had the best experience at Locanda Gandriese and was so happy they were open! The meal I had was delicious! I loved everything, especially the octopus which was the best I ever had. This restaurant and the staff were so nice and charming. They were so helpful and nice to chat with during my meal and also helped direct me where the bus was back to Lugano. I’m so happy I had a memorable experience and hope to come back again one day soon! Grazie mille!!!

Very thin pizza, almost thinner than a piadina. I like it thin but this one was maybe a little too thin, but still not bad. I took the one with courgettes and salmon, the courgettes were cut with a grater and they fit very well. I'll try to get it again in the future. The good thing is free home delivery.
