10/10We have been in Lugano/Montagnola for the past ten days and this was our best meal and dinner experience. The restaurant is in a residential area and is tastefully decorated with relaxing dinner jazz playing. Everything we ordered was so good. Service was perfect.

9/10Nice place to visit on a Sunday afternoon when most of the places are closed. You can make an online reservation, which is a great option. Very nice menu with delicious pasta. We loved the interior, too.

5/10The food was not good and the portions were small. Tiny salad. Very small portion of tasteless fish served with red cabbage. No vegetables, no starch .

9.5/10A hidden gem. We booked a table for 7 at the last minute and arrived 30 min later. Service was wonderful and helpful. Main languages spoken (Italian, French, German, English). The two Italian chefs prepared beautiful and tasty food which was a pleasure to eat. Each course complimented the next. The Maitre d's selection of wine was perfectly suited for the meal. Pricing is very reasonable for the quality of food and level of service. Have put Balmelli on my list of restaurants to visit again when next in Lugano.

8.5/10Menu with interesting twist, delicious food, reasonably sized portions, however, service was a bit slow and food was overpriced.
