Il Capriccio: Lake fish and creativity in Borghetto

If you're looking for a table that respects the product and dares, Il Capriccio is an address in Borghetto I'm sharing with you. The place is renowned for its cuisine that highlights lake fish with a real touch of creativity, far from the beaten track, and that's already a good sign.

What you really eat here

Here, the cuisine is lake fish prepared with finesse. Forget the clichés, we're talking about original preparations and careful presentations. Reviews often mention dishes like Avocado toast, uovo, pecorino e rucola fritta, or Il tonnato del lago, and even a Panzanella di lago, which is already proof of boldness and respect for local products.

The setting is described as calm, with well-spaced tables, allowing you to enjoy your plate without feeling glued to your neighbor. The local reputation insists on a warm welcome and attentive service, things that matter as much as what's on the plate. The establishment is located at Località Borghetto, and some even speak of a "location incantevole sul lago di Bolsena", which, if true, doesn't hurt.

Why this table rather than another

You should stop here if you want to discover a cuisine that doesn't just do the minimum with lake fish. The place is known for its ability to offer original dishes, with fresh products, all for a value for money that seems to hold up, around 40 euros per person. It's an address that dares to step outside the classics while staying rooted in the local terroir, and that, for me, is a very good reason to sit down at the table.
