A real gem! Here, you can experience the authenticity of traditional cuisine combined with meticulous attention to detail in every dish. The dishes are truly exquisitely prepared, with fresh ingredients and authentic flavors that hark back to traditional recipes, but with a touch of artistry that makes all the difference.
The staff is special: kind, attentive, and always available, capable of making guests feel at home. And then the host, with his warmth and attentiveness, manages to make the experience not just a dinner, but an evening to remember.
The quality-price ratio is also excellent. This trattoria exudes passion and love for cooking. Highly recommended for those looking for an authentic place, far from the usual tourist spots, where they can feel truly pampered.

                In the heart of Carignano, a tranquil oasis just steps from the town center, lies the welcoming trattoria "Da Genio," where you can enjoy truly excellent traditional Genoese dishes. The anchovies stuffed with fried panissa, the ravioli with toccu sauce, and finally the delicious artisanal sacripantina are truly delicious. The service is friendly and welcoming, and the prices are reasonable.
We'll be back soon to try their other specialties.

                Excellent Ligurian cuisine: panissa, tuccu, and cima, all made to perfection. Excellent Ligurian wine. Highly recommended. The owners are courteous, friendly, and incredibly professional. I'd even give it 6 stars if they existed! Returning after three years (I'm from Turin), I can confirm that the cuisine here is at its finest.

                Don't be put off by the sign, because the place is really good, a classic trattoria with typical food and honest prices, starting from the appetizer, a cod polenta with fried cod with a good intense flavor, the mandilli with pesto with a characteristic flavor of an emerald green color with a slight hint of garlic that did not bother, all concluded with an excellent chocolate dessert, if you go to Genoa, it is really recommended to go there.
