LAQUA by the Lake
Italian
A beach club on Lake Orta pulls the first look, but the dining room at this fine-dining restaurant inside a boutique hotel is what keeps people talking. The kitchen runs under Antonino Cannavacciuolo's direction, and the menu moves between à la carte and tasting options, with pasta and secondi that lean into Campanian instincts filtered through northern Italian restraint. The crowd arrived for a weekend and quietly rebooked.
