Ristorante Il Borgo In Rapallo

We've always had a great experience. The pizza is delicious, the Recco-style focaccia isn't always up to par, and only double portions are available. The desserts are good, the staff are friendly and welcoming, and the place feels like a family-run business. Prices are perhaps a little above average for a place a bit out of the way. Just be aware that it's always very crowded, especially on holidays and weekends, and it's best to book to be on the safe side. They also have a large, pleasant veranda for the warmer months.

First time I've had pizza here, I was passing through for work. I had cooked ham, mushrooms, and sausage. Just seeing the preparation made me immediately realize that the pizza chef, the owner, and the lady who makes the pizzas know their stuff! Excellent pizza, thin yet crispy, not overloaded with ingredients but with just the right amount of everything, even the tomato sauce, cooked just right, doesn't leave that raw or acidic taste! The "light" dough doesn't weigh you down like a brick in the stomach. They still use their beloved wood-fired oven! Which gives the pizzas a unique flavor! They were kind, and from the short time I was there, they seemed very friendly. It's a shame I can't return because they really make excellent pizza. But never say never, if I ever get the chance, I'll definitely come back for another pizza and I'd recommend it to EVERYONE!
