Fantastic place to eat. Went as a member in a party of over 100 people and the food (buffet) was absolutely amazing. Very well organised and the food was delicious…it just kept on coming! Stunning views of the lake and mountains was enough to make anyone appreciate the location (straight across from the Lugano train station.

Ana Capri – A Perfect Spot in Switzerland! Had an absolutely wonderful experience at Ana Capri! The food was amazing — every dish was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The view is simply stunning, offering a perfect lake backdrop whether you’re there for lunch or a cozy dinner. The place has such a lovely, relaxed vibe, and the staff were friendly and attentive, making the whole experience even better. Definitely one of the best spots to enjoy great food with a great view. Highly recommend!

Delicious food with an incredible view, steps away from Lugano train station. I had lunch while I waited for my bus but could have stayed a lot longer with the amazing view of lake Lugano. The staff (especially Alessandro) was friendly and the food was great.
