"Una vera osteria ticinese, per la gente del posto. Come se ci trovassimo da amici, servizio autoctono e poco complicato. Cucina ticinese e italiana prezzi giusti, con buona scelta di Merlot della regione. Immergiti nel Ticino."

"Se vi capita di passare a Rancate sulla pausa pranzo dovete chiedere cosa cucina di buono Fabio. E' molto bravo in cucina. Il bar non effettua servizio ristorazione alla sera, ma offre sempre qualcosina da sgranocchiare nell'ora dell'aperitivo. Il locale è stato completamente ristrutturato nelle parti comuni (bagni e tavoli interni). Ci sono anche tavoli esterni dove potersi accomodare ed il servizio è cortese."
