Trattoria Vegia Zena In Genova

Genoese cuisine is excellently prepared. Flavor, ingredients, and digestibility are perfectly balanced. I recommend typical dishes with their traditional names: capone magro, a surprise for non-Genoese who might expect capon, but instead... Cod frisceu, and in this case, you need to either guess or learn a few dialect terms that immerse the tourist in the most authentic Genoese atmosphere. Mandilli (also a must here) with pesto, and everyone knows this one. Breaded and fried anchovies. The rest of the menu is discovered by sitting at the tables of this trattoria with its barrel-vaulted ceilings and unique location, at the end of a narrow alleyway, where the entrance is located, and behind one of the city's most beautiful buildings, Palazzo San Giorgio, in the area of ​​the Old Port, the Bigo, and the Aquarium. The quality, quantity, and price ratio is excellent.

Trattoria in the center of Genoa Typical Genoese atmosphere, with tables a little too close together Good food quality with good variety Generous portions Price appropriate for the quality Recommended

A lovely, family-style restaurant with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The staff make you feel right at home, and the pasta is absolutely heavenly — fresh, perfectly cooked, and full of authentic flavor. A wonderful place to enjoy genuine local cuisine in a relaxed setting.

Excellent dinner, homely atmosphere, local cuisine

Typical trattoria with various fish-based dishes, high prices considering it's a trattoria, overcooked risotto, good fish.

Very popular place, the cod appetizer and trofie with pesto were good, but nothing memorable, the service was quick but a bit inattentive, one dish didn't arrive, but it was correctly not added to the bill.

Typical Genoese trattoria with good food and service. The young staff is friendly and attentive. Dined on the 31st with fast service and everything was delicious. Congratulations!!! 👏
