Ticino Experience

Seasonal Cuisine above Lago Maggiore

At Sass da Grüm, the restaurant is part of the experience of the house: calm, grounded, and attentive. Our kitchen follows the seasons and works with organic ingredients, local products, and a clear sense of place. The menu is rooted in a mostly vegetarian approach, while remaining open and welcoming with selected regional alternatives for those who seek them.

  • Lunch: Daily 11:30 till 14:30
  • Dinner: Daily 18:00 till 20:00
Kitchen philosophy
Organic, seasonal, and quietly refined

Our cooking is guided by quality, freshness, and balance. Many of our dishes are vegetarian or vegan, from homemade gnocchi with sage from our herb garden to mushroom risotto, lentil ragù rigatoni, vegetable carpaccio, and seasonal homemade desserts. Organic ingredients and regional sourcing are part of the foundation, not a trend.

Provenance section
Rooted in Ticino

We work with carefully selected suppliers and regional partners, including Bio Partner AG, Linea Bio Verde in Ticino, local bread from Losone, fresh fish from Vairano, and alpine and goat cheeses from Alpe di Neggia. The result is a cuisine that feels honest, nourishing, and connected to the landscape around us.

Special experiences
Special Moments at the Table

Every Friday, we serve fresh fish from Lago Maggiore at lunch and dinner, sourced directly from a local fisherman. For guests returning or arriving from hiking in the mountains, the “Sass da Grüm Hiking” plate with Ticino cheeses and sliced local meat offers a more rustic regional option. On Friday evenings, our candlelit dinner, available upon request for a private dinner on the private panoramic terrace, offers a quieter, more intimate atmosphere for a special meal for two or in a small group. Entirely according to your wishes.

Our Setting
Lunch and Dinner in the calm of Sass da Grüm

Set above Lago Maggiore, the restaurant opens onto a panoramic landscape that invites you to slow down. Terrace, garden, mountain air, and a sense of stillness shape the atmosphere as much as the food itself. Whether you join us for a simple lunch or a longer evening meal, the experience is designed to feel warm and attentive.

Opening Hours
