  • I spent 10 days in Italy. My dinner at Bilacus was the worst meal I ate. It's odd that a meal here fell so flat. When we asked our hotel for recommendations, the clerk pointed to Bilacus immediately. We were excited to dine here. Because Lake Como can get fairly chilly at night, Bilacus has a semi-enclosed outdoor porch area with heat lamps. When you're seated, you may also be offered a blanket. That's a nice touch. I looked up above the table to see a mesh screen on a window leading to the kitchen. It was coated in grease/oil. It's the kind of thing Gordon Ramsay would spot on "Kitchen Nightmares" and scream at the owner about. If they don't notice or care about yellow slicks on their window screens, where else are they dropping the ball? I began with the penne arrabiata (€10). The sauce was watery and mostly flavorless. A definite letdown. For my second course, I went with the tagliata griglia (steak, €20). This was the real crime. The cut of meat was really awful - tough and gristly. Despite asking for it medium rare, it was clearly cooked medium well. I ate other steaks in Italy that practically disintegrated when my knife hit the meat. At Bilacus, I was forced to saw away at a steak that had all the texture of an old boot. The total damage for our meal was €77.50, which is horrendous for the poor quality of the food. During our time in Lake Como, we vastly preferred BabaYaga and La Fontana. If you find yourself headed toward Bilacus, keep strolling on. There are better, less expensive meals all around.
