We ordered water and white wine, a Gavi... We were never rushed, and we enjoyed every moment of our relaxing lunch. The menu is heavy on local lake fish. There is a 'tourist' lunch offered, a set-priced meal consisting of a starter, a fish dish, and a dessert. The deal was good at 20 euro, but, as none of us wanted two plates, we opted to order pastas individually, choosing three different ones from the menu. And all three were superb. We know this because we each tried all of them. Each had distinct flavors, different types of fresh pasta, and ample servings. Here are photos of all three of them:

As we were leaving the restaurant we were able to thank the owner, Paco, for the wonderful lunch. Paco's family has owned this restaurant for generations, and the care, respect for history, and pride really show. Paco generously offered to show us around a little. Belvedere is also a small boutique hotel, with eight charming rooms with views to die for. Maybe you recall when it was voted one of the Top Ten Most Romantic Hotels in the World by Trip Advisor. His assistant Elleny showed us one of these rooms, with its stunning private terrace. Then, while leaving, a small hidden restaurant terrace, if you can imagine, even quieter and more romantic than where we ate. This terrace was near the back entrance to the restaurant/hotel.  Down a few steps and under the metal arch, one is now on the back, beachy side of the island, where it is lovely to walk along the perimeter. There were flower boxes lining the stairs; they contained a fragrant mix of peach-colored roses and mint.
