I ate at Ostaia a Ribotta in Genoa on October 29th with my wife, and the experience was truly enjoyable. We thoroughly enjoyed the delicious dishes, especially the trenette al pesto and the mandilli al pesto, which were authentic and rich in flavor. Among the daily specials, we chose an excellent cod, cooked with great care.
To conclude, dessert: a delicate rhubarb jelly accompanied by a sautéed fresh strawberry, a combination that won us over. The courtesy of the owner and all the staff was remarkable; they made us feel truly welcomed and cared for with kindness.
We will definitely return on our next visit to Genoa: a must-see for anyone who loves traditional Ligurian cuisine.

Beautiful location in a very characteristic area of Genoa. Fresh fish, but the pairings aren't always successful. Excellent wine selection, with friendly (but not predictable) staff.

We celebrated our wedding here in July 2005. We return every now and then, always on anniversaries. The management has changed over the years, but the place remains enchanting. The cuisine is interesting, as is the wine selection. The staff is courteous. A very pleasant place.

Bella osteria, siamo stati all’aperto, dove la cornice è semplice e gradevole. Primo piatto buono (spaghetti alla chitarra con pesce) e ottimo gelato artigianale. Servizio gentile.
Da aggiustare forse un po’ l’aspetto estetico anche se a Genova un po’ di trascuratezza ha il suo fascino e ci sta tutta

Very good and hearty traditional dishes, with a garden just above the old town. It's worth the detour!

locale nel centro storico di Genova, presenta una terrazza molto carina e suggestiva.
Personale molto attento e disponibile, porzioni leggere, unica critica riguarda il menù, la scelta è limitata perchè ci sono pochi piatti e magari chi ha intolleranze come me fatica a scegliere. In generale un posto carino, adatto in estate.
