Petit trésor - Edit
We just had a fantastic lunch for our last day in Italy. The terrasse is located in a small street and is very cosy, protected from the sun, no cars. The staff is incredibly nice and patient. The waitress speaks at least 4 languages and offer many recommendations. They will spontaneously ask for your allergies and encourage you to take your time. The food is tasty and delicious, including the desserts. They also make their own flour and have biodynamic wines. 100% would recommend!

Tasty and friendly - Edit
After ten days spent between Como and Garda, we ate here on our final afternoon. After a lot of pizza minus the cheese, and pasta with tomato sauce over the previous days, it was a delight to eat vegan food that was full of flavour. The owners were super friendly and attentive, even making me a little something to take away and eat on the flight back home. All finished off with beautiful homemade desserts and coffee. It was a pleasure eating here and chatting with the owners.

We just left - Edit
Went inside to have a look what they offered for dessert/pastry (we already had lunch at Lughino). Didn't see any cakes or such in the counter. A waitress addressed us, was rather dominant, and it came across we could only take a seat if we ordered lunch (but we simply wanted a coffee and maybe some pastry). It was all but the welcome and warm atmosphere I see written in other reviews.
Read moreNonetheless I see they offer desserts on the menu. Pity, would have liked to try.
PS: not accessible, steps to get in.

Good morning,
Read morethanks for your review. We are not a bar, we are a bistrot that can only offer lunches and dinners. The few tables outside are offered only to those who want to have lunch and not drink a coffee. (near us there is a bar where you can have a good coffee). We are not rude to customers we are always kind and polite and all the reviews confirm it.
Then what does it mean not accessible were you on a bicycle? Did you have to climb over a wall?
We hope to see you soon to welcome you and make you have a good experience.
The Imperfect team

Thanks for the kind words. The most important thing for us is to make people understand that you can eat well not only using quality raw materials but above all creating tasty dishes with what nature provides us, LEGUMES, SEASONAL VEGETABLES, CEREALS AND PASSION !!!

Tasty but too greasy - Edit
Cozy place with a very unique menu highlighting all sorts of ancient and uncommon grains. The menu is basically bread in various forms (e.g. flatbread, hamburgers, sandwiches, pastries). The couple that runs the place is very kind and provided us with exceptional service.
Read moreThe food was very tasty but extremely greasy/oily, which I don’t love. We had their pizza (which was more of a thick flat bread with some tomato sauce on top), their savory pie (some bready triangles covered in a rich cashew sauce), their baked vegetables (very flavorful but swimming in oil), and two of their deserts (the chocolate cake was nice but unremarkable while the chestnut torte was flavorless).
Overall, I’m glad I tried their food but would not necessarily return.
Pros: Friendly service , Unique concept
Cons: Greasy food, Menu lacked non bready options

Dearest Tammy,
Read morethank you for spending time in our little bistrot. We certainly put passion into what we do and offer. I would just like to point out a few things concerning the menu and the products you tasted. Ours is not a bread-based menu. Our products are based on Mediterranean cuisine, therefore sustainable, seasonal products, ancient grains, legumes, extra virgin olive oil (cultivar: leccino). We only use Italian dried fruit, namely hazelnuts from the Langhe and Sicilian almonds. The béchamel is prepared exclusively with almond milk from Valdibella (neither cashews nor macadamia). We do not use refined sugars but only maple, rice malt, Panela and Rice Amasake (slow release sugars). We also offer Falafel, Farinata, Lasagna, Parmigiana and much more.
We make bread only with dynamized water, wholemeal flour and sourdough. Pizza, savory pie, bread sticks, taralli and other products are not produced in the same way. Each of them has two to three days of leavening. The pizza is not low, it is as it should be, digestible! the same thing is said for the tomato. It's called siccagno! Not acid ! Sweets are just sweet. Not fake creams that nature doesn't provide us, not fake chocolate but only that of Modica I could go on but the truth is that perhaps you were expecting something much more Standard... Unfortunately we are not able to serve dishes created for the masses. I hope she could have recovered from the gastronomic disappointment in some other vegan restaurant.
Namastè

Wonderful vegan food! - Edit
We wanted to make it to Le Golose Imperfezioni at least once during our stay in Como, and I'm so happy that we did! The café/bakery is open from 12-3pm on weekdays, and we just happened to be in the area around lunchtime. They offer takeaway as well as dining in, and we chose to sit on one of the tables outside. The staff were incredibly helpful and explained the menu to us. We ordered a vegan club sandwich and 'il duo perfetto' (savoury vegan croissants) and everything was very tasty! They also offer a variety of vegan coffees and cakes.
