Best pasta I had in Italy - Edit
My sister and I both had the ravioli with vegetables which were so so good - hands down the best pasta (and second best meal) I had during my vacation in Italy.
Read moreI was also so impressed with the sheer number of clearly labelled and thought through vegan options especially in this area where most restaurants have no clearly labelled vegan options and where the only vegan options are pasta with tomato sauce and pizza without cheese.
Pros: So many vegan options, Tasty food, Especially amazing pasta

Multiple vegan options, including vegan cheesecake - Edit
We had a very nice lentil pasta and veggie balls, the staff seemed engaged about having vegan options and told us they also make vegan cheesecake, which we sadly didn’t try as we were so full after two very fulfilling plates😉

Happy to find something different! - Edit
Lago Maggiore is a bit of a dead zone for creative vegan options so we were very happy to take a boat trip from Baveno to the island and have a late lunch here that wasn’t marinara pizza or pasta pomodoro. 😭
Read moreFor main we had polpette vegetali con sugo e patatine fritte and a delicious mango and coconut cheesecake for dessert. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not incredible but when compared to other spots locally we were happy!
The setting in the dehors by the lake is lovely, but it gets very busy so book if you are a big group.

Italian lakeside with vegan options - Edit
Great location and one of the few places on the islands offering vegan dishes. They are clearly marked on the menu, such as Italian 'meat' balls.

Great experience - Edit
The food was absolutely great. You sit right by the water. It looked very busy at first, but we asked if there were any tables free and were given one straight away – it’s definitely worth asking. I’d seen online that they serve vegan ravioli, which I couldn’t find on the menu. When I asked if they still had them, I was able to order them. The food was absolutely delicious; the ravioli didn’t look spectacular but had a subtle hint of lemon that made them delicious. There were a few other vegan dishes on the menu. The waitress was really friendly; when she brought the dessert menu, she specifically pointed out a vegan dessert that wasn’t explicitly labelled as such, just to let me know. The dessert was delicious too. We can highly recommend it.

Leckeres Essen - Edit
Wir haben vegane Ravioli und Spaghetti Pomodoro gegessen und beides war sehr lecker.
Read moreZu Beginn wurde uns ein Dip zum Brot gegeben und wir wurden darauf hingewiesen, dass dieser Anchovies enthält und daraufhin haben sie den Dip gegen einen veganen Dip getauscht.
Zudem gibt es zwei vegane Desserts zur Auswahl.
Sehr zu empfehlen! Die Bedienungen waren auch sehr nett:)

Very good italian food - Edit
We came here on 12:30pm and it was very full (on a Tuesday). We got the vegan Ravioli and the pasta with lentil ragu.
Read moreI did not expect much because the pictures of the Ravioli looked kind of boring, but it was really really good. Best food I had so far in the Lago Maggiore area.
The pistacchio cheesecake for dessert was also great (though it's more a deconstructed cake).
The restaurant is right by the ferry terminal.
Vegan dishes are clearly marked on the menu (except on the dessert menu).
The staff was really nice and pointed out the vegan desserts for us (we didn't need to ask).
Would definitely come again.
Only downside is that the toilet does not have a proper toilet seat (often the case in Italy unfortunately)
Pros: Awesome and authentic italian food, Nice staff

Great vegan options - Edit
They serve some vegan options e.g Handmade Ravioli (there were so good with lemon oil) and we had vegan pistacio Cheesecake (absolute dream).
Read moreThey are really making an effort regarding vegan options.
The service was excellent. The owners daughter even recommend the vegan options in the menu, after she found out we ordered a vegan main dish. Very considerate.
Our Advice: not all options are labeled vegan, but the staff will help you out with their vegan options. Just ask.

They really make the effort - Edit
They really make the effort to think of vegan alternatives and create tasty dishes.
Read moreThe mixed entree was the best.
The lentils ragù pasta was good but a little overcooked.
There is even a dessert!
We had pistacchio and cream crumble.
Limoncello on the house.
Prices are reasonably high considering the location
Staff super nice
Pros: Staff, Choices, Location

Dining on a tiny island - Edit
This restaurant is located on a very small island full of restaurants. There is basically nothing else to do but eat. From what we saw, this was the only place with clearly labeled vegan dishes. We had salad, fried vegan meatballs with fries and eggplant involtini. Everything was served quickly and was pretty tasty… ob top of that the desert was amazing! It was some kind of hazelnut cheesecake with salted caramel and cookie crumbs served in a glass. We shared one and fought over the last spoonful of deliciousness 💚

Great experience - Edit
In an area with very few vegan-friendly establishments, Tratroria Imbarcadero manages to stand out with decent vegan options, including pasts, mains, sides and desserts, and a helpful and friendly service. Pricing is also quite fair for such a touristic spot.

The filled zuccini was really unique and tasty.

We got also Limonchello for free.
The desert- Straberries on top of chocolate mousse was amazing!
Pros: Nice place on the deck on top of the water, Tasty, great service and good atmosphere
Cons: meat balls souce was lacking at the begining

Delicious - Edit
Both myself and my partner had the veggie meatballs (labelled vegan), they came in a rich tomato sauce with boiled potatoes and were absolutely delicious! Staff were knowledgeable and offered soy milk for hot drinks. There were a few other labelled options. It was a good portion and reasonably priced for a highly touristy area.
