We enjoyed a great Ligurian meal at Taverna Mandragola in Cervo, Italy.
The linguine and ravioli were freshly made with seafruit and porcini.
We also enjoyed the tasty tuna steak and the pesce Spada (swordfish).

Generous portions, quality food, excellent service, courtesy and kindness (and for Liguria this is not a given), reasonable price

Returning for the third time after many years, the previous visits had been better. This time, we found the quality consistently good, but we didn't like some of the combinations, and the bill, on the other hand, rose significantly. The space was cramped, and we suffered greatly from the heat. Previous visits, we had been able to eat outside, and it was more pleasant. The service, in short.

We had a really good raw fish platter with Ligurian focaccia and, on the side, octopus and calamari... really excellent... cooked to perfection. The service was also excellent. Worth a try.

We stayed in the area for two weeks and had our best meal here! The bruschetta was amazing, the gnocchi were fantastic, and the king prawns with spinach and a small salad were delicious.
Great value for money and a very friendly waitress made the experience even better. Highly recommended!

Very generous and quite good dishes (even if my pasta wasn't particularly tasty). Friendly waiters.
The bill was a bit steep: the pasta cost €22, while the tuna fillet - much more justified - was €28.
Since the restaurant is Peruvian-owned, I recommend trying the ceviche: we saw several plates go by and it looked really inviting.

It's been a few years since I went to dinner at this restaurant in Cervo, but the quality and service are always excellent. We had a really good dinner. In addition to the classic menu, there are always particularly appealing daily and off-menu options.
Impeccable tuna tartare with ginger, fried octopus with intriguing Gazpacho sauce, linguine with squid and cuttlefish to be noted. The wine list is also particularly rich and varied. If you pass by Cervo, a dinner here is a must!
