Reservations · Takeout

Creative seafood with tableside warmth from a chef-sommelier duo; excellent when on form, but recent inconsistency and service lapses mean it suits diners who value ambition and are comfortable with premium pricing.

Why it gets a B+ for overall quality

Er Più Como delivers excellent seafood execution with refined plating and thoughtful wine guidance, positioning it among Como's better neighborhood restaurants. However, inconsistent food quality and emerging service missteps in 2026 prevent a higher grade—the restaurant shows promise but lacks the reliability expected of grade A establishments. Worth visiting for the sommelier's expertise and creative seafood, though recent trends suggest caution about consistency.

Restaurant Summary

A neighborhood-feel spot on Como’s edge where a chef and a sommelier host with warm professionalism. Guests praise crisp service touches and refined plating, noting moments like a surprise dessert for celebrations. One diner summed it up: “fresh, bright flavors and gracious guidance”, though a few recent visits mention service lapses that dulled the glow. The cooking leans contemporary seafood with global accents—think red prawns and bottarga, crudo platters, and grilled catch priced by weight—rather than rustic trattoria fare. Plates are elegant and ingredient-led, ideal for those who enjoy a sommelier’s pairing and a tasting menu rhythm; on off nights, execution can drift from the menu’s promise. Families should know the menu is seafood-forward and creative. There are a few simpler choices like spaghetti or risotto, but no dedicated kids menu. Adventurous eaters will be happy; picky diners may fare better with pasta or fried selections, and portions feel refined rather than hearty.
