€€€Modern Cuisine, Contemporary
If you’re not a guest at the Vigilius Mountain Resort hotel where this restaurant is situated, leave your car in Lana and take the short cable-car ride to Monte San Vigilio where you’ll find the hotel at an altitude of 1 500m (remember to check the time of the last cable-car back down the mountain!). Decorated with a profusion of wood, the dining room has the same modern feel as the creative mountain cuisine prepared by the new chef who started here in 2023.

Located in Cermes, Miil offers contemporary modern cuisine within a charming mill setting. Reviews frequently praise the meticulous food preparation, professional service, and enchanting atmosphere, particularly noting excellent wine pairings and detailed plating. However, negative feedback highlights inconsistencies in service attentiveness, pacing issues, and perceived small portion sizes relative to cost. Some guests report declining value for money, while isolated incidents mention poor staff attitude. While the culinary execution and ambiance are generally well-regarded, service reliability varies.

€€Grills
Although fish dishes also feature on the menu, Hidalgo has long enjoyed a reputation for its excellent meat options thanks to its different cuts of steak and beef sourced from all around the world and cooked mainly (but not exclusively) on the barbecue grill. In a separate room(Aomi, a kind of restaurant within the restaurant), guests can choose from a menu dedicated uniquely (from antipasti to main courses) to Japanese Wagyubeef.

The elegance and warmth of this restaurant remain unchanged, like a timeless signature. The cuisine, always attentive and in tune with contemporary tastes, offers more essential and straightforward dishes that convey local flavors with refined simplicity in the new "Wine & Dine" concept by Elisabeth.
