Trattoria La Quercia is one of those places that makes you rediscover the true meaning of a Ligurian trattoria. As soon as you arrive, you're immediately immersed in a genuine atmosphere: a rustic, welcoming atmosphere, meticulously maintained without being overbearing, where you feel more like a guest than a customer.
The cuisine is the restaurant's true strength. Traditional dishes are prepared as they once were, with quality ingredients and generous portions. The first courses are excellent: fresh pasta, rich, flavorful sauces, truly home-made. The second courses are equally impressive, with perfectly cooked meats and recipes that respect local traditions. The side dishes also deserve special mention: simple yet carefully prepared.
The service is friendly and familiar, never intrusive, always available to recommend dishes and wines. You can sense the passion of those who work here, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. The wine list is also excellent, well-selected and in keeping with the cuisine.
The value for money is truly fair, considering the quality of the ingredients and the care taken in preparing the dishes. It's a classic place you'll want to return to, whether for a Sunday lunch or a quiet dinner with friends or family.
In conclusion, La Quercia di Lumarzo is an authentic, no-frills trattoria where you eat well and feel at home. A highly recommended destination for those who love traditional Ligurian cuisine and a warm atmosphere.

Excellent food, carefully prepared and truly excellent. Interesting dishes and generous portions. Fairly priced. The place is a bit dated, but welcoming.

I had lunch with an excellent first course with fish sauce and a delicious green stockfish, all at a great price. I'd already dined there before and had eaten very well at a fair price.

I used to come here with my parents way back in the old days. 😁 We returned with our son and our two dogs today.
Very efficient service, welcoming place, good-quality products, creative and traditional dishes. The fried octopus was a bit too tasty, but it was crispy, soft, and very well served.
All the dishes were generous. A special mention goes to the Russian salad, which was truly balanced and melting on the palate. The wine list is adequate. Dishes can be chosen from the general menu or the daily menu. Dessert is served in decidedly oversized quantities; I'm writing this to save room for it. 😀

Homemade cooking, I ate well and spent little, honestly almost too little 😅
Orecchiette with arugula and speck, cheese focaccia, water, wine, coffee: 12 euros.

High above Imperia, in the middle of an olive grove. Delicious meal. Everything was perfect.

Excellent restaurant, with a wide menu, quick service, and generous portions. The only problem is the noise from the customers' chatter.

This was my second time eating here. The first time I ate in the evening, and despite the limited seating in the dining room, we had to wait forever to be served. I have to say, everything we ordered was good.
We returned on a Saturday for lunch, and the restaurant was crowded. This confirmed that eating requires a lot of patience. Between ordering and being seated, we waited 50 minutes, and I have to say, the appetizer was mediocre, except for the creamed cod. The artichokes that accompanied it were a bit disappointing. I won't go into detail about the house appetizer, which was sent back to the sender, except for the cured meats, of course. Another 45 minutes for the first course after we'd finished the appetizer. It was unnerving.
I won't be returning.
