23/02/2026: On Saturday evening, February 21st, after so many thoughts (the restaurant near my house never crosses my mind, who knows why...), I tried to make a reservation. It's always busy, but it's a bit late; maybe next time... but no! A cheerful, friendly female voice called back, telling me they still had a table for four. I took it right away, and I was right. A truly wonderful experience: the place is very quiet and intimate with nice, relaxing music. The cellar is well-stocked with a wide selection of wines. We tried a good Sardinian Vermentino and an excellent Pigato. The food, in no particular order: eggs from the shop, cod balls, squid ink ravioli filled with fish and seafood sauce, fillet with red wine sauce, stuffed guinea fowl, and finally, a sbrisolona and chocolate sphere. Everything was perfect! Great attention to food quality. It deserves the accolades it has received, and we'll be back. Finally, when it was time to pay the (adequate) bill, the "owner" of the telephone voice came out to say hello: well done, Sigrid! This friendly and brilliant thirty-year-old has a great future as a chef. Well done to her and her staff! We'll definitely see you again!

Antipasto:
gnocchetti di calamaro Jerusalem artichoke and mandorle
Secondi:
ombrina e carciofi
polpo arrosto carciofo fumè and crema all’aglio dolce
Dessert:
2 lime sorbetti
All veramente buono squisito porzioni non abbondanti ma justice.
Personale dress in an elegant, friendly, competent, professional, cordial and available manner.
During the dinner, the chef and owner Sigrid came to greet you very kindly, competent and professional.
For as long as the restaurant is ready for customers, it's almost always the case that I'm waiting and quickly when the restaurant is ready for customers, it's too slow with a long wait specie to have the meal and the price taken care of for the excellent quality of the dishes.
My wife and I had dinner at this restaurant and wine bar located in the Albaro district of Genoa, near the Albaro Village Arena. It's a small establishment, with a few tables inside, spread across two rooms, and an outdoor terrace adorned with large plants.
We didn't order wine, but it's undoubtedly their strong point. We ordered:
Starter:
Squid gnocchi with Jerusalem artichoke and almonds
Main Courses:
Seared octopus with smoked artichoke and sweet garlic cream
Dessert:
Two lemon sorbets
Everything was absolutely delicious, and the portions, neither too big nor too small, were perfect.
The staff was elegantly dressed, welcoming, smiling, competent, professional, friendly, and helpful.
During dinner, the chef and owner, Sigrid, came to greet us. She was very young, affable, smiling, competent, and professional. As for the service, initially, when we were almost alone, it was attentive and quick, but later, as the restaurant filled up, it became too slow, with long waits, especially for the bill and a fair price considering the excellent quality of the food.
