A gastronomic experience between creativity and tradition
At Villa Arcadio Restaurant, cuisine is a story of place, memory and contemporary vision. Chef Glauco, from Mantua and the son of cooks, brings with him an authentic passion shaped in the kitchens of leading Italian and French restaurants, alongside internationally renowned chefs. Today, he translates the values of Villa Arcadio – territory, seasonality and sustainability – into a cuisine that respects tradition while reinterpreting it with elegance and modern sensitivity.
His dishes are essential yet deeply expressive: ravioli that change with the seasons, whitefish spaghetti with Garda lemon air, tomato variations, chargrilled leek with Valtenesi olive and caper ragout, fried Garda perch with herb garden mayonnaise, and mountain milk ice cream churned to order with Villa Arcadio olive oil, sea salt flakes and lemon zest. Each creation is a balance of flavour and respect for the ingredients, designed to tell the story of our territory through taste in an authentic and contemporary way.
Everything is accompanied by a carefully curated selection of wines, ranging from the best wineries of Lake Garda and the surrounding area to prestigious Italian and international labels, with particular attention to artisanal producers, in order to enhance every course and make the dining experience even more complete and harmonious.
