Our Story
An Argentine classic
in Como since 1998
The Sombra family has been cooking in Como for over 28 years. Real asado, Malbec from the Río de la Plata, handmade empanadas — every day, just like the first.
433 TripAdvisor reviews. Guests from around the world. A kitchen that doesn’t pretend: it’s Argentina.
Don Segundo Sombra is the gaucho from Ricardo Güiraldes' novel, the book every Argentine reads at school. It is also the family name: the Sombra family. The name over the door was not chosen — it was already theirs.

The atmosphere
of the restaurant
“The best Argentine meat I’ve eaten outside Argentina. Warm atmosphere, welcoming family, honest flavours.”
«We come every year for our anniversary. The staff remembers us and the wine is always right. Places like this are rare.»
«I have been coming for years when I am in Italy for work. The chimichurri always the same, the steak always perfect. Don Segundo Sombra is an anchor.»
«I have been coming since I was a child with my parents. Now I bring my own children. The quality has never dropped over all these years.»
