There’s a change of guard at this Ticino dining institution where young couple Eloa Geiser and Yanick Walker have taken over the running of both the kitchen and front of house service. Eloa, the charming female half of the partnership, is also a qualified sommelier and takes very good care of her guests, while Yanick, adds his classic-French culinary stamp without neglecting his Valois roots, although he is not averse to adding some Mediterranean flair to his cuisine. In addition to its usual menu, on Tuesdays guests can order the “Stazione” veal liver, and on Saturdays the special braised bee

Located in Intragna, Ristorante della Stazione is noted for its stunning views of the Centovalli valley and welcoming atmosphere.

However, some reviewers express concerns regarding value, citing small portions, bland flavors, or high prices. Occasional issues with impersonal service and meal pacing were also mentioned.

Other features include a well-stocked wine cellar and two romantic rustic-style guestrooms. Open for over three decades, Dan Enzo is now run by the second generation of the family.

€€Regional Cuisine
This attractive restaurant boasting rustic yet modern dining rooms and a beautiful terrace shaded by a pergola has offered the same format for over 20 years – a single risotto-based dish (the house speciality) served with a delicious meat option, nearly always lamb fillet, and very few fish dishes. Reasonably priced, with everything of an excellent quality.
