Grotto Tradizionale
Welcome to our relaxation oasis
Discover our delicacies from the Ticino cuisine! Here you can enjoy delicious food and drinks in a relaxed atmosphere, in a wonderfully pleasant location with a beautiful mountain view. We cook traditionally and mainly over a wood fire.
Enjoy delicious polenta variations, fresh, seasonal salads and rustic Ticino platters from the grill. We also offer a selection of cold platters with delicious meat, cheese and vegetables – all from local producers. We usually prepare these specialties for you in our inviting outdoor show kitchen, which makes the experience even more authentic.
In our wine cellar you will find selected, full-bodied wines from the region that go perfectly with our Ticino specialties and aperitifs. Of course, you are also welcome to linger with us over a good glass of wine, a refreshing drink or a café.
Whether in the beautiful outdoor area, in the cozy indoor area or at the bar – we warmly welcome you!
