The Osteria

Welcome to Osteria Cyrano – Food & Wine

In the heart of old Lugano, Osteria Cyrano is your opportunity to experience the richness and flavours of Mediterranean cuisine through Chef René Nagy's masterful interpretation of traditional dishes.

Let Luca Anastasio guide you in your wine choice – and don't miss out the chance of enjoying our excellent wines as an aperitif in the lounge zone. We wait for you every day, with ever new proposals from our kitchens.

The Food

A charming land and one of the crossroads of Europe, Ticino is a place where the stark flavours of the Alps meet unbridled Mediterranean playfulness.

Here at Cyrano every day is a discovery: enjoy a whole new stage in your journey through the flavours of this land, at the quiet pace of seasons and earth.

Not only is food the basis of life: for us, it is also its highest cultural expression - to be interpreted and reinvented twice a day: for lunch and for dinner.

The Wine

In wine, truth - and, in fact, the whole world: flavour and fragrance, friendship and frowns.

Some wines seem to have a destiny: to partner a particular food and close the circle of flavour experience with stunning perfection.

Other wines - superb wines - are there for you to enjoy in our cellar, whilst meditating on the infinite nuances to be found in a simple glass.

We are waiting for you here at Cyrano - Food & Wine.
