Ristorante del Pescatore In Portovenere

We'll definitely be back! The seafood is excellent, with generous portions and very friendly wait staff. We'll definitely be back.

We followed the Google reviews, but were quite disappointed. The food was average, like a mass-market restaurant, and lacked flavor. Prices were decidedly high (we each had an appetizer, actually half a dish because it was plentiful, and either a first course or a second course. A bottle of wine wasn't particularly good. No dessert, just a sorbet). The service was very courteous and attentive, but that's not enough.

Hidden gem—excellent food and fantastic service! An absolute must for anyone visiting Portovenere.

Best cuisine of Portovenere! I was recommended this restaurant by locals and I’ve had an excellent polpo e patate, the best I’ve ever had. The owner and the staff were really friendly! Food unrelated, the facilities were very clean and equipped with a spacious space/changing table for my baby.

This restaurant was so good. I started off asking the owner what time they opened. He told me 7:00 and it was 6:30. I stepped outside and he came out and told us to come in and eat. His name was Max. We sat down and our server was Fabio. Fabio was awesome and took very good care of us. We were so shocked that we were the only patrons in the restaurant because everything was outstanding. We had the white anchovies to start, then a seafood pasta and grilled squid. I tell you, the food was incredible. It was so good we came back the next day for lunch. The restaurant ended up getting a party of 50 tourists and that really made us happy. At the end of our meal, we thanked Fabio for his great service, thanked Max for his incredible food and also Frank the other cook in the house. Max, keep doing what you are doing which is cranking out wonderful food that we will come back for again. Cheers!! Tony & Betty M

We went to the restaurant for Easter lunch, a pleasant day, with delicious, well-prepared dishes. There was a bit of a misunderstanding at first regarding the first courses, but the staff was immediately helpful and resolved the issue with kindness and professionalism. Overall, a positive experience, definitely worth considering.

The waiters were very kind, and Massimiliano, the chef, was top notch. Congratulations. Elia
