Ristorante Derna In

Everything was absolutely delicious! The dishes were beautifully balanced in flavor and presentation, and you could really tell there was care behind each plate. The service was just as impressive—super friendly and attentive. Such a lovely experience from start to finish! Will definitely come back.

Nos encantó aquí. La bienvenida fue muy amable, nos ofrecieron grandes especiales además del menú estándar y el pescado estaba fresco, bien cocinado y muy sabroso. El servicio era insuperable, aunque fuimos los últimos en salir más tarde en la noche!

Location davvero curata nei dettagli, servizio molto presente e cibo di qualità (abbiamo preso una carbonara di mare, spaghetti con sugo di rana pescatrice, fritto di mare e polpo arrosto)

A restaurant you absolutely must try if you're in the area. The servers are attentive and welcoming. They make an effort to explain the menu clearly, even if it's not in their own language. We ordered a third course to try because we couldn't decide, so we were treated to two separate plates: a real treat. The wine list is carefully selected; you'll find local wines served nowhere else. The cuisine is traditional and delicious, with a touch of originality that adds that little something extra. The ambient playlist is great; classics to make your time here a pleasant one. And let's talk about the ice cream: if you think you're going to taste a simple vanilla ice cream, think again. It's simply a taste of frozen heaven.

Derna is the real deal. A Ligurian family owned and run restaurant, passed down through the generations. Also it has the best food in Moneglia, with fresh seafood to die for. Oh and you have to try the traditional “Troffie” pesto pasta dish. Highly recommend! You might just come back 2 nights in a row the food and the vibe is so good.

Great, modern Italian dinner. The seafood and pasta were perfectly cooked. Beautiful setting, helpful and welcoming staff (even if you primarily speak English). The owner was nice enough to talk to us about amaro at the end of the night.

Great place, I had dinner last night with my girlfriend and we were definitely satisfied, tagliolini off the menu very tasty and full of fish, sweet and bitter (the orange one) exquisite, we were lucky to find a table for 2, I recommend booking at least a day in advance! Keep it up!

A very pleasant evening spent enjoying delicious Ligurian food. A very pleasantly decorated restaurant, extremely friendly owners, and, above all, delicious food. I particularly enjoyed the cooked Ligurian fish fillet: the taste was amazing. I definitely recommend it.

Best spaghetti vongele I've ever eaten.

I was really craving fish this evening, and the experience at Derna went beyond all expectations. Attracted by the fact that it was one of the few restaurants to offer shellfish on the menu. And instead it turned out to be an exceptional discovery! We ordered a fish crudité, a mixed grill, a peppered mussel dish and some first courses: each dish was cooked to perfection, with very fresh fish and great care on the part of the chef. The hospitality was impeccable, the atmosphere very welcoming and even the wine selection - the Ovale in particular - proved to be excellent, perfectly paired with the dinner. This dinner fully satisfied my desire to enjoy quality fish, especially shellfish. A truly top restaurant: genuine cuisine, fresh fish, excellent selection of wines and warm service. We were 100% satisfied. Highly recommended! I was really craving seafood tonight, and the experience at Derna exceeded all expectations. It was one of the few restaurants offering shall fish on the menu — but it turned out to be an outstanding discovery! We ordered a seafood cruditè, a mixed grill, a mussels sauté, and some pasta dishes: every plate was perfectly cooked, with incredibly fresh fish and clear attention to detail from the chef.
