Al Porto In Viareggio

Unforgettable experience, top service, top food, they assigned us a table directly overlooking the sea, highly recommended

Last night we discovered a real gem near the Darsena in Viareggio. The restaurant is striking for its elegance right from the entrance: it feels like entering the hall of a starred hotel, with rooms designed with attention to every detail and fine materials everywhere, from the floors to the coverings. After the welcome, you are accompanied to the upper floor: a spectacular terrace overlooking the sea, covered but with a sliding roof, which opens based on the weather. Unique, quiet, relaxing atmosphere. The tables are well spaced, which is rare and much appreciated. The menu is limited, but studied and based on very fresh raw materials: the catch of the day is visible on display on the ground floor, on ice tubs in view next to the kitchen. The wine list is simply endless, with the sommelier ready to guide you in the right choice - we relied on him for a Vermentino, very spot on. Impeccable service, kind and prepared staff, ready to answer any questions. Yes, the prices are those of a high-end restaurant... but so is everything else. An experience worth every penny. Perhaps one of the best restaurants in all of Viareggio. We will be back.

It was a lovely restaurant situated just in front of the marina, and definitely nice to have a table upstairs with a view of the water and the yachts. However, they tried to give us a table in their less attractive verandah (with this harsh lighting) which we refused, and were then seated inside the main hall though in a corner a bit far from the nice views - and exposed to second hand smoke because they allowed smokers to smoke in the verandah next to us. I think many of the nice tables were for couples or 3 pax. And we were 4. However, the service was friendly and efficient and the food really very good. We came here for the seafood dishes and every one of them was nicely executed and presented. They also had fresh porcini options (it’s the beginning of the season), which we would have been tempted to try if not for the fact that we really came to have seafood. A good address.

Exceptional food and service Deserves its place in the Michelin Guide We've been loyal to this restaurant for three years on every trip to Viareggio

Great experience very friendly staff and excellent food

What can I say? Il Porto restaurant is a guarantee. The setting is elegant and very romantic for couples, but overall very charming regardless. The service is excellent; the staff makes you feel at home and makes sure you have everything you need and more. Then we come to the food, a culinary experience that's absolutely worth it: incredibly fresh, top-quality fish, simple yet refined ingredients, and dishes that showcase them to their fullest. Almost everything on the menu can be adapted to gluten-free, which only adds to the appeal of this place! If you're passing through Viareggio, don't miss it.

A sublime expression of undisputed professionalism in every area: Reception, Kitchen, and Dining Room. Starting from the entrance, where the welcome is greeted with an old-fashioned rigor, and continuing into the Dining Room, with its perfect furnishings and table settings, Maître d', Sommelier, and staff. Then comes the food, fabulous, accompanied by a nearly infinite wine cellar. As an old advert used to say...there are many stars...millions upon millions...but Il Porto and its staff deserve so many more. Thank you all.

Restaurant located in the port of Viareggio with a stunning view. You can see all the boats docked. Excellent, delicate food. Friendly and knowledgeable waiters. They recommended our meals, and everything was excellent. The price is reasonable for the location.

Tutto eccellente, dagli antipasti di cruditè fino alla catalana come seconda portata. Dolci buoni. Servizio attento. Bellissima carta dei vini. Ritorneremo.....

Tornati per l'ennesima volta, si conferma uno dei nostri posti preferiti di sempre. Ottima qualità del cibo e servizio impeccabile. Grazie!
