Au Café Restaurant In Genova

A very elegant restaurant on a tiny street near the old port. It's small but welcoming. The owners are extremely friendly and ready to share all the interesting facts and information about the dishes and wines. The cuisine is typically Ligurian, using high-quality ingredients and excellent cooking. We tried the exceptional trofie with pesto, an aromatic yet delicate pesto that went down very well, even though I have a rather fussy stomach. The Genoese-style stockfish was excellent, and the desserts were excellent. The wine list was good, and the prices were very reasonable considering the quality and level of the restaurant. We had a great time, an excellent restaurant.

Excellent. I fell in love with this restaurant just across the street and booked right away. The atmosphere is elegant and quiet, the food and service impeccable. As soon as I'm in Genoa again, I'll definitely be back.

One of the most welcoming, high-quality, and classy places I've ever seen in Genoa, and beyond. The owner is incredibly kind and attentive to his customers. We'll definitely be back. Highly recommended.

We went to eat at the Au Café restaurant, and the food, as always, was a guarantee: excellent dishes, top-notch flavors, no complaints... almost. The problem? Mr. Maurizio was missing. And without him, the dining room works, yes, but it loses a bit of its magic. It's a bit like a show without its star 🎭 The food is excellent, the atmosphere is great, but with Maurizio, it's a whole different story: more smiles, more atmosphere, more "Au Café." We'll be back soon, but only to check that Maurizio is back in his place 😄 All in all, "Food 10, Maurizio 11" 😎🍷

This is a lovely place with great service. It has some wonderful vegetarian options, like savory mousse tarts, that are different from anything else we found in Genoa.
