Garilinda In Garlenda

31/08/2025: Four of us had dinner at this restaurant last night, August 30th. The food was definitely good, and the portions were plentiful. The service, however, was subpar: two of us ordered monkfish to share for €90.00, and it was brought to us whole, unfilleted. We had to ask for a plate to hold the scraps. The other two dishes we ordered—tagliolini with monkfish and pappardelle with ragù—were served in two attractive bowls. For dessert, we chose four chocolate tarts, which we felt were overcooked because the center wasn't soft, but they weren't even a Caprese cake, and since they were so dry, they weren't pleasant to swallow. We're teetotalers, so we only drank water; the bill for four courses and four desserts was €200.00. Perhaps a little above average for the service provided. To their detriment, I have to say that the boy with the blond hair and the blonde girl were very kind, but I can't say the same for the brunette girl with the ponytail, who was almost annoyed when we asked for a spoon to serve us the fish side dish.

28/08/2025: Attention to detail! This restaurant is run by young, talented people with a lot of passion. You can immediately sense their attention to the finest ingredients; the dinner is exquisite and the portions are just right. A well-kept, modern, and welcoming location; outside, inside, and even in the bathroom, every detail has been meticulously designed. Customer service and speedy service (you won me over with the chocolate you brought with my coffee). These little touches, combined, made for a truly enjoyable evening. I hope to return soon to try the meat and paella. The price is in line with Ligurian standards; it's worth every penny! Anyone who complains about the price hasn't understood this restaurant at all. Unfortunately, the photo won't do it justice, but I recommend it to everyone.
