Situated along the breathtaking shores of Lake Garda, Capriccio has become a culinary institution since its opening in the mid-1960s. The restaurant holds a unique place in culinary history as the first restaurant in Northern Italy to specialize in sea fish, pioneering a tradition that has defined its legacy for decades. At the helm of Capriccio’s kitchen is the esteemed Chef Giuliana Germiniasi, whose culinary expertise has earned the restaurant coveted acclaim in prestigious dining guides. Her daughter, Francesca Tassi, lends a refined touch to the guest experience with her expert knowledge of wine and gracious hospitality.
Capriccio’s menu is a delightful celebration of seasonal produce and innovative combinations. Signature dishes such as the low-temperature cooked egg with sour potato cream and caviar, as well as the spaghettone with lobster, showcase the restaurant's mastery in balancing technique, quality ingredients, and creativity. For dessert, the red fruit soup with milk ice cream and flamed meringue offers a refreshing and memorable conclusion to the meal.
What sets Capriccio apart is not only the quality of its food but also its exceptional service. With a commitment to precision and a deep connection to its heritage, the restaurant’s service is as refined as its cuisine. The carefully curated wine list, which highlights regional gems like Franciacorta and boasts a selection of champagne and German Riesling, complements the dining experience perfectly.
During the warmer months, guests can dine al fresco in the restaurant’s expansive outdoor terrace, offering stunning views of the lake and the lush garden. With its Michelin star and accolades from esteemed guides such as Espresso and Il Golosario, Capriccio continues to earn its place as one of the finest restaurants in the region.
