€€Modern Cuisine, Contemporary
Situated closed to the motorway exit, this restaurant’s rustic exterior belies its young, colourful and contemporary interior. The dishes are as modern as the decor, yet they have their roots in strong local traditions. The owner has a real passion for French and sparkling wines, including around 160 different champagnes and a wide selection of Burgundies, plus a good choice of wines by the glass, craft beers and cocktails.
TripAdvisor review sample · 4.3/5 · 80 reviews
Rosso di Sera in Uggiate specializes in modern contemporary cuisine. Reviews frequently highlight fresh ingredients, balanced flavors, and careful plating, supported by warm, professional service and an elegant atmosphere suitable for romantic dinners or celebrations. However, some guests question the value for money, citing high prices relative to portions. Negative feedback occasionally mentions cold first courses, loud music hindering conversation, and slow pacing during peak times. Despite these inconsistencies in service execution and pricing perceptions, the restaurant maintains a solid reputation for culinary quality, though diners should be aware of potential variability in the dining experience.
Ideal for diners seeking high-quality modern cuisine in an elegant setting, though best visited during off-peak hours.

Overlooking the delightful Piazzetta del Popolo, this restaurant delights guests with its views of the lake and the Rocca d’Angera, which can be enjoyed from the bright, relaxing dining rooms as well as from the shaded outdoor terrace. Chef Roberta, the soul of the restaurant, describes herself as a “home-style cook” who creates authentic dishes that are unfussy and full of flavour. Her “dal fondale alla superficie” fried fish recipe (literally, “from the depths to the surface”) is a triumph of flavours and includes zander, whitefish, trout, alborella and seasonal vegetables.
