Hosteria Croce D'oro

We went as a family of four. Lovely place, fantastic food and wonderful service and very reasonably priced. We haven’t visited Italy for 18years so our Italian was not great yet the waitress was very patient and helped us choose a lovely meal. The restaurant is slightly set back from the main strip at the lake but it was nice to take a walk away from the hustle and bustle and see some of the other parts of Desenzano. We would highly recommend!

Amazing restaurant, so pleased we found it, the best food we have had in a long time, authentic and great quality. By far the best meal we had in the area. We will definitely return. I recommend booking as we did luckily because the restaurant was full

A traditional Italian restaurant, with a lovely atmosphere and delicious food. The smoked salmon bruschetta was the highlight of the dinner for me, probably the best smoked salmon I ever had. The service is informal and very friendly, would definitely recommend it.

Discovered via internet. I love this kind of restaurant..small family members. great service, menu presentation and service. chosen menu of the day. bruschette and wild boar with truffles... ravioli of pike and bottarga. homemade pasta..ottimi good cellar and distillati to remember next time to desenzano

I came to dinner on Saturday night with my boyfriend. the room is small and cozy, there is a fireplace. the menu allows a wide choice of wines, appetizers, first and second, both meat and fish. We wanted to take a tuna carpaccio as an appetizer, but it was not available as they did not deliver it in the morning. This involves the oo of fresh raw materials, which nowadays is not discounted. then we took two before, ravioli full of branzino and ravioli full of rabbit. both very well. as I think I got a sloppy tuna, tasty. finish tiramisù and chocolate and coconut cake, light sweets, goose and not heavy at all. with two first, two seconds, two desserts, a bottle of water, one of wine and a coffee just for what we ate. I'd come back.
