La Cantina In Camogli

6 Stars Boss Marco & Staff Thank you so much for everything 😍👌

Absolutely beautiful restaurant a bit away from the main beaches. The seafood pasta was delicious, wine crisp and cold, service extremely friendly. It’s truly a little gem.

Lovely quaint Mediterranean seaside restaurant featuring wonderful seafood in a very small, gorgeous Bay, just north of Portofino on the Riviera. Our guide, the skipper of our yacht that was rented, called ahead and made reservations for us. In a table was available when we arrived. La Cantina only has a handful of tables, making reservations ahead of time is highly recommended.

A true gem in San Fruttuoso! Fresh fish, crystal-clear waters, and a beach kissed by the sun until sunset. Marco’s kindness and hospitality make you feel instantly at home. Pure paradise!

This is a wonderful location and the service was fantastic. San Fruttuoso can feel a bit crowded so coming to this restaurant was a nice escape from the madness. The dishes are diverse and the wine fantastic. I will continue to come back here. Bravo

The pasta was just okay and the portion was on the smaller side. The seafood pasta was the biggest let-down — lots of bits and shells, and the largest shrimp was completely empty. Prices feel high for what you get, though to be fair, there aren’t many other places to eat in the area. And they brought bread to the table, which was later added to the bill, even though we didn’t order it.

Exceptional view but on the other hand the plates are really small

Delicious food, especially the mussels. I recommend booking in advance because, like every restaurant here, they often sell out. I also recommend bringing water shoes for the nearby beach.

I struggled with this one. LITERALLY (and I know how to use that word) inaccessible by road, I didn’t expect haute cuisine - and it met my expectations, but also twisted my nipples in a good way. It’s a hike to get there, and when you do, the menu is more dogeared than my 17-yr old schnauzer*, but whatever you order from it has literally (again) been caught fifteen minutes prior. Basically - just go for the grilled fish, enjoy the fact that you’re eating in a grotto, and enjoy the view of 500 people hunting for 15 spots on a tiny beach beside a beautiful abbey. The ferry goes from Portofino or Santa Margarita every hour, and returns on the half hour (when we went in summer 2025)

A charming, rustic seaside spot. Excellent service. Delicious seafood pasta and light fried fish... definitely a must-try experience in a unique place. Buoy service and escort (external and paid) for boats.
