Fodor's Expert Review Trattoria due Piccioni

$ Stresa and the Isole Borromee Modern Italian

In a town with an overabundance of touristy pizza and pasta places, this unassumingly modern family-run bistro raises the bar. Although the shabby-chic decor and friendly service entice, the real draw is the short but smart menu of creative Italian dishes and vegetarian options. Start with the antipasto misto di Lago (variety of lake fish) followed by a homemade gnocchi or tagliolini, or opt for a heartier main like the pork fillet with cabbage and bacon. Just make sure to leave room for dessert, like the birramisù, a take on tiramisu soaked in beer, wine, coffee, and grappa.
