Il Pescegatto In Vado ligure

We had a first course and panna cotta. Milk, fresh eggs, and bottarga. In ascending order of flavor. Three very good first courses.

An authentic restaurant, run with passion by two special people: Michele, the chef, and Giorgia, who welcomes guests and prepares desserts. They are the only two people running the place, and you can feel the care they put into their work in every detail, from selecting the ingredients to taking care of their guests. The cuisine is simple in the best sense of the word: excellent ingredients, locally sourced produce, and dishes executed to perfection, without unnecessary embellishments. Everything we ate was truly extraordinary. But what makes this place special is also the atmosphere. It's one of those restaurants where, after dinner, you're happy to stop for a chat with the owner and leave with a smile. If I lived in the area, it would be one of those places I'd return to every week.

We visited with our family. It's a family-run restaurant with excellent cuisine. Everything was delicious, and the desserts were simply amazing! I highly recommend it!

We had dinner for two, looking for the place on The Fork. The fish was delicious and high-quality. Friendly and helpful service. Recommended.

I had the pleasure of dining at Pescegatto, and the experience was truly enjoyable. The restaurant is one of a kind, harmoniously blending taste, elegance, and art, creating a refined yet welcoming atmosphere. The cuisine is top-notch: original and unexpected seafood dishes, crafted by those who deeply understand the ingredients and showcase them with technique, sensitivity, and respect. Each course maintains a perfect balance between simplicity and flavor, allowing the quality of the fish to shine through without unnecessary excess. The restaurant's artistic flair also contributes to making the experience special: every detail seems designed to engage not only the palate, but also the eye and emotions. A place where cuisine, elegance, and art come together effortlessly. Highly recommended for those looking for something different than a simple restaurant dinner. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A very charming and intimate place, with background music that doesn't interfere with communication between diners. Supreme dishes, incredibly fresh and delicious fish. Plenty of options for those with food intolerances, including desserts. The staff is polite, knowledgeable, welcoming, and unobtrusive. Excellent price for the quality of the ingredients and the service provided. If I could, I'd give it 10 stars; 5 is an understatement.

I'm not biased, even though I've known Michele since we were born. I've read a few reviews, including the negative ones, but I wasn't surprised by the positive ones, which I think are over 95%. To those who wrote the negative ones, especially about the quantity of the mixed fridge, I have to laugh. We are seafaring people, having grown up in Pirate Bay, we know fish and how to cook it well, and above all, it's not easy for us to catch it or buy it fresh every day. Michele has always succeeded, and he even uses quality oil for frying. Fish requires a considerable effort from the moment you buy it to the moment you serve it. Maybe these guys buy it frozen and then fry it in seed oil, it's not quite the same. Keep it up, Miky, you're the best ❤️

Just last night, friends and I had booked this dinner a few weeks ago. "We started with paella, grilled prawns, and fried fish!" It was a spectacle to say the least, my friends were thrilled, and imagine their taste buds! Anyone who doesn't know this place needs to know it otherwise it's impossible to understand. A beautiful, cheerful evening accompanied by good 🍷 wine and excellent beer 🍺🤠💪👍☕, with excellent desserts and coffee. What can I say about the welcome, they make you feel like family, more than that.!! The bill was fair.

A special, refined place with excellent food

Beautiful location, wonderful owners, very kind and helpful, excellent food! Top! Highly recommended!
