This is a must go to restaurant. - We had been recommended the White Horse by a friend of mine who is Gluten Free. I believe the new owners Diane and Geoff took over about 15 months ago. I cannot give anything but praise to the owners, who both took time to chat to us. Also Erin who served us was really friendly. The food was presented beautifully and tasted superb. Gluten Free is not a problem here. We were very surprised by the decor, modern, clean and a pleasure to eat there. We are well travelled and big reviewers. We only give top marks when it is earned. Here it was. We will be back and can only say to anyone reading this, just visit next time you are in the area.

Fantastic - do not miss out! - We were surprised to find we were the only 2 for this game experience- Sandu was an excellent guide to Italian region wines. We tasted about 8 wines from sparkling, white, Rose but mostly reds- we will b enjoying them when we get back home!!

Como private wine tasting with Sandu at Capitan Drake - Hands down the best wine tasting experience in Como! We went with our son and his fiance, who were being married in Lake Como on the following Friday. Our hostess was Sandu! (hopefully I am spelling this right). We laughed and had great wines, sparkling wines, and small foods to compliment. We purchased a lot of wine to be shipped here. Prices reasonable and great tasting wines from local vineyards! The highlight of the night was my husband finding a rare champagne that he had been looking for and private story behind it. We laughed so much that the evening ended with a dessert wine and dark chocolate provided by the owner! The BEST!!!!

Good wine experience - This was excellent. 7 wines, 5 of them were red. Option between a large meat and cheese board or a vegetarian plate with some local veggies. The host was very knowledgeable about wines and the region, and gave a us some flexibility with the red wines we drank based on our preferences. Would do this again and would recommend.
