Il Forno dei Portici In Genova

23/11/2025: I was there for the first time over thirty years ago. I still remember the nickname of a very friendly waiter, 'Maciste' 🙂. I've been back several times, the last a couple of years ago. The great thing about this place is that the cuisine, which is traditional, hasn't changed much. The trio of first courses, which can even be four or five if you like, are a must! But the meat is also spectacular. You usually leave here full and satisfied. Top 💯💯💯 The first courses are always delicious

19/11/2025: We arrived at Trattoria Settembrin on October 26th, during a motorcycle trip with friends. The restaurant is located in Carasco, a small hamlet in a quiet area of ​​the Graveglia Valley, next to the stream of the same name. It's a very quaint place, but with limited space around it. I must say that being on a motorcycle helped, as with a car we would have had a harder time finding parking near the entrance. The atmosphere is reminiscent of an old-fashioned trattoria, with a family-friendly atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. The frescoes on the ceiling in the upper room are beautiful. The staff is friendly and helpful, even though the restaurant was full, which inevitably made things a bit slow—all in all, normal for a busy place. We were pleased with the food: typical Ligurian dishes, generous portions, and authentic flavors. The first courses, in particular, were very good; personally, I would have liked them tossed in their sauce and not just placed on top, just to help the pasta bind together better and bring out the sauce even more. Everything that followed was delicious, with homemade and delicious main courses and side dishes. The quality/price ratio was more than fair, and we left feeling satisfied.
