I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina ligure in Genova

22/10/2025: A great find! During our Ligurian weekends, we loved it the first time, so we wanted to return. Located in the historic center, this restaurant offers traditional local cuisine, flavorful dishes, and generous portions. I loved the fritto misto and the cod fritters. It's a very popular, welcoming place, with very efficient and friendly staff. When you sit down, a basket of delicious focaccia is immediately waiting for you. The desserts are also very good. Pizza is also available. Excellent value. I definitely recommend it.

19/10/2025: We had dinner with ravioli with amberjack (fantastic!), spaghetti with seafood (fantastic), mixed fried fish and tender and sweet grilled calamari, all cooked to perfection! Highly recommended.

30/10/2025: We went for lunch. The place is nice, but it's a swanky farmhouse restaurant and it's too expensive for being served with plastic plates and cutlery. Gourmet cuisine in a farmhouse restaurant is ridiculous. €80 per person for "tastes"??? But the most ridiculous thing is that if you want to reserve a table on the veranda, you have to send a deposit, and if you cancel, you lose it. It's not like Cracco was the chef. I'd say this is a place to avoid. Instead, go to Cavi di lavagna al melograno and you'll eat amazing food.

29/10/2025: After hearing so much about this agri-restaurant, I decided to try it, taking advantage of a truffle-themed evening. The location is truly beautiful, the atmosphere warm and welcoming. Unfortunately, I'll stop here, as we had several issues with the service: dirty cutlery; being the first to arrive at the event, we had to wait for the other guests to arrive, after which we were served last only after we pointed out they'd forgotten about us. After the first course, we waited 50 minutes for the first course and another 20 for the second course. For dessert, a fior di latte gelato, unfortunately with ice in it, was brought to us only one, and again, the second course was brought to us only after we requested it. The menu presented is unusual, but adding a few truffle shavings isn't enough to make a dish exceptional. I also shared my point through the feedback requested at the end of the dinner. So, considering the journey to get here and the cost of the meal, it's not worth the effort. I'm truly sorry!

30/10/2025: Delicious food, reasonable price, one of the few in the area....

19/10/2025: The service was a little slow, but everything was very good. The atmosphere was welcoming and the service was good.

23/11/2025: A historic restaurant in Sestri Levante serving traditional dishes. Long, comfortable counters allow you to sit with strangers. The dishes are well-prepared and delicious. The menu is on the blackboard, and the staff are friendly. Prices are reasonable.

22/11/2025: We ate at this simple and authentic restaurant on a weeknight. The farinata was excellent, as were the grilled octopus and the minestrone soup. We highly recommend this place.

05/11/2025: Fantastic pizza and location!! I don't like shift service; I want to be free to leave whenever I want when I go out to eat.

31/10/2025: Excellent lunch with typical Genoese first courses (but don't forget the pansoti). A charming location next to the funicular terminus. Excellent service and very fair prices, especially considering the location.

02/11/2025: --- I ate at Ostaia a Ribotta in Genoa on October 29th with my wife, and the experience was truly enjoyable. We thoroughly enjoyed the delicious dishes, especially the trenette al pesto and the mandilli al pesto, which were authentic and rich in flavor. Among the daily specials, we chose an excellent cod, cooked with great care. To conclude, dessert: a delicate rhubarb jelly accompanied by a sautéed fresh strawberry, a combination that won us over. The courtesy of the owner and all the staff was remarkable; they made us feel truly welcomed and cared for with kindness. We will definitely return on our next visit to Genoa: a must-see for anyone who loves traditional Ligurian cuisine. *** Would you like to add any details about the location or atmosphere?

We immediately knew it was the perfect place to enjoy traditional Ligurian cuisine. The appetizers were generous. The first courses were tasty and generous. All this was accompanied by the friendly host, who made us enjoy a full tourist experience with a touch of humor and lightheartedness. We'll definitely be back. AMPLE PARKING NEXT TO THE PLACE.

05/12/2025: The only flaw is that they don't yet have a debit card payment option. I'm editing the review because they now have an debit card. 😁

22/11/2025: Good value for money; cash only.

23/11/2025: Great food, pleasant atmosphere, lovely evening.

27/10/2025: We stumbled upon it by chance after a visit. Welcoming atmosphere, very kind and helpful staff. Excellent food.

14/11/2025: The menu is primarily traditional Ligurian. The portions are generous, the flavors are delicious, and the taste and satisfaction are guaranteed. The price is within expectations for the location and type of restaurant. I return frequently and am always satisfied.

08/11/2025: The place is welcoming but a bit cold. The appetizers are good. The ravioli with ragù are tasty, even if the sauce is a bit watered down. The pansoti, on the other hand, are excellent. The main courses, however, aren't particularly outstanding. But it's worth the trip just to chat with the waiter, Giovanni Battista. We'll be back.

03/11/2025: The freshest seafood I have had in a long time! We had mussels, pasta vongole and fritto misto. Everything was simply prepared but with such fresh ingredients, that is exactly what is needed. A lovely waitress somehow managed to run the whole lunch service by herself, everything being served fast, without mistakes to a room full of what looked like happy regular customers. Perfect lunch! Thank you!

10/10/2025: Very tasty, authentic fish cuisine. They have very fine fish dishes. The service is attentive and the atmosphere is authentic. It filled up quickly; we were lucky to get a table; I think a reservation is worthwhile.
