What’s better than a great restaurant? A great restaurant with a stunning view! Aldo, one of Arona’s most historic restaurants, offers a unique setting. Here, good cuisine beckons you to one of the most enchanting views over Lake Maggiore. Choosing between countless possibilities of meat, fish and pizza has never been so enjoyable.
A varied and innovative menu that satisfies even the most demanding palates. And for those who are more indecisive, we will sweeten the wait with a breathtaking view directly overlooking the lake, out towards the Rocca Borromeo di Angera. The view can be admired from both inside and outside the restaurant, as well as from the adjoining piazza in summer. A privilege that can be enjoyed by all, this is why we would ask you to always make a reservation in order to experience this unique dining pleasure.
When high quality ingredients meet creativity, our pizzas come to life. Four different kinds of dough for all requirements: traditional, whole wheat, soy flour, kamut.
