Grande Fratello - Melide

Next to the tesla chargers and seemed like a good spot for a pizza. Unfortunately this sad, empty cafe is so paranoid and tacky that as soon as you walk in they shout at you to pay a euro in case you use the bathroom! Go to Cala Melide, beautiful spot 50m away on the lake, a different world.

....Let's start with the positive: The interior is nicely designed, the waitresses friendly and the food LOOKS like a feast for the eyes. Unfortunately, the food doesn't taste that good and is much too expensive! The thicker edge of the breaded chicken schnitzel was not through and the meat tasted like paper, without much sauce not exactly enjoyable. The fries hardly salted and that for 30fr! As we walked onto the patio there was a chemical smell which was very unpleasant but we didn't have time to look elsewhere. They could also change the glasses, you can see that they were very old (scratched from the dishwasher). We came with 3 dogs. I found it a pity that we weren't offered a dog bowl. At the end, while walking, I saw that there was one lying around in the bushes and also cigarette butts, not exactly inviting. We felt uncomfortable. It is not recommended as a tourist. For a short stop as a construction worker who doesn't expect much, okey (I also had construction workers at lunchtime who were welding).

Returned after some time, welcoming place, very kind and helpful staff and the smile of the girl (Federica) is contagious

I was treated very well, the staff were very kind and the food was a real delight!

I went for a quick pizza for lunch with a dear local friend...excellent pizza as was the kindness and friendliness of the pizza chef Gaetano...highly recommended
