Welcome to Ristorante Enoteca San Marco

“ A charming, old-world place with excellent cuisine that evokes the flavors of yesteryear. The owner is very kind and helpful, and the wine shop is well-stocked with champagne and French wines, as well as Franciacorta and other important Italian labels. ”

“ This historic restaurant is located in the hamlet of San Giovanni di Polaveno, in a scenic area where you can experience the typical traditions of the mountain pass. It's easily accessible from both Lake Iseo and Val Trompia. That said, the restaurant is clean and traditionally furnished, and the dishes are simple yet excellent. The portions are generous. EXCELLENT VALUE for money, as is the excellent selection of wines and beers. The staff is friendly and professional. The owner is very passionate and available for any advice or explanations. We'll be back soon. RECOMMENDED RESTAURANT!!! ”

“ I absolutely must return for dinner because so far I've only had an extraordinary aperitivo. We purchased and drank two bottles of excellent French white wine (a Bourgogne Aligoté and a Chablis), which the host generously served with bread, cured meats, cheeses, and even grilled meats. Everything was excellent and topped off by the delightful location (panoramic terrace); we were tempted to cancel our dinner reservation to stay here. As I said, I'll definitely be back. ”

“ A welcoming atmosphere and friendly staff. There's a well-stocked wine cellar. Marco, a skilled sommelier, recommends wines and spirits. The wines and spirits are well-priced and worth purchasing and tasting. The restaurant caters for both business meals and social gatherings. ”

“ We had a great time on the summer terrace. The menu isn't banal; on the contrary, it's interesting and sophisticated; excellent ingredients. A tasty and relaxed dinner. The price is reasonable for the quality of the food. I recommend the Iberian pork pluma (the meat from the famous Pata Negra ham). I'd add that prices have risen a bit lately, as everywhere else. Still, it's worth a few more recommendations: the Fiorentina steak, the butter, and the spit roast; and when they serve mushrooms, they're spectacular. ”

“ We were given the wine room for lunch, even though there were only three of us, so the staff was welcoming and friendly. The menu is listed and you can choose. The traditional dishes are very good. There's an indoor dining room and a covered terrace outside for al fresco dining. The desserts were limited because they were almost sold out, e.g., apricot tart and sbrisolona. Some items are expensive. ”

“ Excellent, well-maintained wine cellar and a restaurant that showcases traditional local dishes. No parking problems. ”

“ Excellent lunch: Chestnut gnocchi, delicate and tasty, Florentine steak, very tender and tasty ”
