In Como, authentic flavors at small prices: the cuisine of Trattoria Pizzeria In Borgovico

Just a stone’s throw from the historic center and the lakeside, there’s a place where you can eat well without spending much, rediscovering the simple and genuine flavors of Lombard cuisine: Trattoria Pizzeria In Borgovico, a favorite spot for both locals and budget-conscious tourists.

The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, with simple furnishings and the aroma of real home-style cooking. The menu is a tribute to tradition: pizzoccheri, polenta with braised meat, risotto with perch, as well as daily specials that change according to the season and the chef’s creativity. And for those who prefer something more informal, there’s also excellent wood-fired pizza—thin and fragrant.

The prices? Perfectly in line with the idea of a popular trattoria: first courses between 9 and 12 euros, main courses around 13 euros, and generous portions that satisfy even the most demanding palates.

Located on Via Borgovico, away from the tourist hustle yet easy to reach, it’s the ideal stop for anyone who wants to enjoy Como without frills, with a genuine, hearty, and convivial meal.
