"We are lucky enough to have family in Dangio so we visit every year at least once. I can safely say that this little restaurant is the best thing that has happened in Dangio for decades. It may not be fine dining and it certainly doesn’t pretend to be but it does serve decent and delicious food at a reasonable price. The atmosphere is very welcoming and a lot of the locals are found here on a regular basis . It is so nice to be able to have a meal with a bottle of wine and be able to walk home. Well done to all the team. Linda"

"L'osteria del cuore. Sara e le ragazze sono sempre molto cordiali. Il menu è semplice ma si va sempre a colpo sicuro. I prodotti sono locali e di ottima qualità (menzione d'onore per la bistecca, la busecca e il formaggio d'alpe). L'ambiente è caloroso, ci si sente subito a casa e si trova sempre qualcuno con cui fare due chiacchiere."

"Vorrei rispondere alla Signora M, che nemmeno ha il coraggio di firmarsi.... lavoro per Sara da anni, non sono sottopagata, anzi, sono apprezzata... e sono come in famiglia... Sara è una persona molto corretta e gentile, se può aiutare lo fa con amore... Certo questo può creare invidie, mi dispiace per voi...io ci sto bene con lei e non la lascerò mai...in tutta la mia carriera mai trovata una persona corretta come lei. Ce ne fossero di Sara nel nostro ambiente... Per quanto riguarda la cucina la risposta è una sola, siamo sempre pieni e addirittura come oggi non c'era posto per tutti, un peccato... e tutti i clienti contenti, se fosse come dice la Signora M saremmo sempre vuoti... qualcosa non torna... Signora M se ha problemi non se la prenda con noi, che siamo felici e lavoriamo bene tutti insieme .. Mi dispiace per lei SIGNORA M.. I nostri affettati, formaggi, carni sono tutti prodotti locali...lavoriamo con prodotti a km 0.. lavoriamo con le persone del posto... e questo piace, siamo apprezzati per questo e non per l'arte alle pareti o un servizio schic... quello i clienti lo trovano quando vanno in vacanza a St. Moritz . Da noi si aspettano quello che già diamo, con amore e passione...semplice ma buono.."

"Ristorante molto semplice ma di una primissima qualità. Buoni vini buona birra cameriera di una gentilezza enorme. Consiglio. Prendete il Cordon Bleu di Maiale per 23 CHF. Molto copioso e grande. Ne ho mangiato una metà, l'altra per domani colazione. Vicino alla Cima Norma, che aprirà presto un 5 Stelle. Vi consiglio di andarci. Top top class. Best ever."
