Il Ristorante di Paolo
A Como classic in Piazza San Fedele. Paolo plates classic Lombard cuisine — missoltini, ossobuco, fresh-caught lake fish — with quiet refinement. The dining room is small; book a week ahead for weekends.

Why we like it
Quiet refinement, not flash — the dining room sits 22 covers, and the staff knows the regulars.
Best for: a serious Lombard dinner without the lakefront tourist markup.
Order the missoltini with polenta and ask for the lake-fish of the day.
Book a week ahead Friday and Saturday — walk-ins almost never work.
