uncomfortable - Edit
I’m going through my HappyCow saves to see if I forgot to review some of the restaurants I went to and this is one of them. I ate here on July 13th 2023. They had no vegan sauce options but we insisted and the waitress checked in the kitchen and they said they could make me a tomato sauce pasta. The portions were big and the pasta was delicious. But at the end of the day it’s just a tomato sauce pasta that I had to beg for. Definitely not worth the money or the struggle.

Good pasta - Edit
I have mixed feelings about my experience here. We had a day trip from Bergamo to Como and I was searching for some place to have lunch, and really hoped to have Italian food since it was the last day of our trip. There was not many places, but I saw this listed in here and got really hopeful because there was this one comment they had many vegan options offered. First thing I did was show my vegan ”passport” which was in Italian, because I wasn’t sure would they speak english well. The waiter immediately said they have nothing vegan because they are roman restaurant which meant carbonara etc. But as I show him they were listed on happy cow he said okay fine, we can make you one dish with vegetables, and asked me to check the menu.
Read moreAllergens were pretty clearly marked in Italian. So I ordered pasta with tomato sauce and tomato. But to my surprise I got also eggplant and I think onion there too.
The waiter seemed a bit annoyed about the fact I’m vegan, and as he found out my partner wasn’t, he seemed kinda relieved and said ”thank god” and then apologized to me… 🙄 not sure how it really was, but this was my mixed feelings experience. Might be that this is the famous Italian sarcasm/humor. Anyway, nothing too serious and the food I got was tasty and filling! Apparently there haven’t been many vegans visiting but at least they understood well what it means so I’d say it’s a safe place to get something to eat in Como 🙂
Pros: Tasty pasta, Moderate price
Cons: Not much options

Italian restaurant with amazing vegan options - Edit
I went the day before to ask if they had vegan options and the chef told me she would make something for me. On the next day she had 5 different vegan proposals in addition to 6 different pasta "shapes" not containing eggs. The dishes were amazing and the portions huge. Lovely experience.

Cons: Only opens at lunchtime
