ristorazione — Torri del Benaco · Veneto
In Pai, a hamlet of Torri del Benaco, Osteria da Laura looks out over Lake Garda with a view that at sunset turns every meal into a ritual. Open since February 2025, it brings the lake's tradition to the table through artisanal cooking and family-run hospitality.
Opened in February 2025, Osteria da Laura was born in Pai di Sotto, on the Verona shore of Lake Garda, from a precise choice: to open the doors of a family kitchen to the lake and its guests. Management rests directly with the owners, with attentive service that has won over locals and newcomers alike from the very first months.
The dining room opens onto the expanse of Lake Garda, and at sunset the light on the water becomes part of the meal. This is the moment guests seek most: a view that reviews describe as priceless, in a setting where the family atmosphere never gives way to formality. The lake is backdrop, but also protagonist of the table — in the fish the kitchen chooses each day.
Every day the kitchen turns out hand-rolled fresh pasta, bigoli with sardines, tortelloni with burrata and anchovies, homemade desserts. The menu crosses lake and sea, pairing fish dishes with land-based proposals such as maccheroni with duck ragù and trippa alla parmigiana: a cuisine that knows tradition and never simplifies it.
A dish, a view, a family. The page of Osteria da Laura tells everything this scene has just begun to reveal.
