I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Liguria

09/11/2025: The best focaccia in Finale Ligure. Their breadsticks are highly recommended.

08/11/2025: Farinata with rosemary and farinata with rosemary and onion are delicious!

05/05/2026: Excellent service, very attentive and also super food

03/05/2026: ABSOLUTELY AVOID! The owner handles food, the cash register, and money without washing his hands or wearing gloves 🤬 He doesn't put food back in the fridge between orders. The waitress is very unfriendly; she drops bread on the floor and puts it back on the cardboard plate... etc. The health department would be wise to conduct some inspections...

10/05/2026: I recommend the Tagliatelle al Ragù, which is really good... it gives you the energy you need to get back on your bike 🤙 Well done 🤩

01/05/2026: We stopped for a coffee on the motorbike pass

27/08/2025: The Negroni is my favorite cocktail. It's just the right amount of strong, just the right amount of sweet, just the right amount of bitter. It's a clever and balanced cocktail, seemingly simple to make but, evidently, deceiving. Unfortunately, it's hard to find good ones around Genoa; from a place called a "negroneria," you'd expect the best, but instead... Mine was made by a kid who I don't think has ever even tasted one, otherwise he wouldn't have made it that way. There was so much ice that it resembled a frozen one, both in color and flavor. What annoys me most is the possibility of a new generation of Negroni enthusiasts who think it's well-made when, in fact, it's not. Please consider changing the brand. Nonnegroneria isn't bad; I grant you any rights. Thanks.

22/08/2025: Nice bar in a street with plenty of good bars. Ideal street for a night out.

18/04/2026: Very good food, the waitresses are very kind and helpful. Highly recommended for your aperitifs.

16/04/2026: I've been going to Ristoro Cucina & Bar every day for about a month, for breakfast and lunch. The food is good and the value is excellent. The girls who work there are extremely helpful, cheerful, and very professional—they make the experience even more enjoyable. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a welcoming and tasty place for lunch.

13/01/2026: Ordered with Too Good to Go, a carefully prepared package and plenty of it. Unfortunately, I was surprised by the quality of the pizza. The Margherita wasn't cooked properly; part of the dough was raw, and I had to throw it away. The rest was very spongy, almost soft. The stuffed pizza, however, was decent.

07/01/2026: Excellent service always with a smile, plus there is a large amount of choice between starters and main courses.

16/04/2026: An exceptional place. We love it!! Whether with family or as a couple... During the holidays, they offer generous menus, very reasonable prices, and always a kind touch.

06/04/2026: Amazing!! Where's the sixth star? I'm pressing it!! Beautiful, extensive menu with many Italian specialties and pizzas. Very affordable prices. But above all, the quality and taste! The porcini ravioli had a sauce with 10 large pieces of porcini mushrooms! A real treat! The bruschetta, as a starter, was also excellent. Truly a culinary delight! If you want to eat there: there's only one requirement: make a reservation or be incredibly lucky, given the long lines.

08/12/2025: I've been eating ice cream here for 34 years and I'll continue to do so until the end, like Juventus.

23/11/2025: A lovely little restaurant where my husband, a friend, and I come regularly every month. The food is excellent, and the owners, both husband and wife, are delightful, as are the waitresses. We always receive a warm welcome and are happy to return.

10/05/2026: Ordered the pizzas we waited an hour without any communication of delay pizzas never arrived tried to call back but after the order THEY NO LONGER ANSWER YOU

10/05/2026: shameful, you ordered 3 pizzas and they never arrived, you try to call and they disconnect the phone, never again.

07/04/2026: Superb fresh Ligurian pasta, borage-filled ravioli, pansoti, fish-filled ravioli, trofie—all fresh and delicious. Freshly made walnut sauce and traditional pesto. The owner is extremely friendly and offers excellent cooking tips. Highly recommended.

22/03/2026: We waited over an hour and 10 minutes for a plate of pasta that never arrived...! We finally got up and left! Don't waste your time waiting, terrible service and a non-existent waitress...they don't bring your drinks, and they can't give you a waiting time...

11/11/2025: Restaurant service was too slow, the staff were untrained but friendly, the food was disappointing: poor quality, with frozen fries and vegetables consisting of just two slices of eggplant, overcooked and unsalted sea bream, and no appetizers (which is typical in Italy). It's a shame because this establishment was very good under the previous owners.

27/10/2025: A pleasant restaurant located on a newly renovated, quiet square on the plateau of the old town with a stunning view of the harbor. It's a lovely place to relax in the sun on the concrete benches. Accessible on foot through the beautiful alleys of the old town or by elevator, which ascends through the car and pedestrian tunnel beneath the old town. We originally only wanted a drink, but then decided to have a bite to eat: grilled anchovies and grilled vegetables. Very tasty and reasonably priced. Friendly service, and an authentic chef who came to our table for a brief chat.

13/05/2026: I've been going to Finale Ligure for 3 years and I've always had a good time at the La Grotta restaurant. I recommend it to anyone going to Finale Ligure.

02/05/2026: The service is poor. Long waiting times and the staff reacts very rudely to criticism - not recommended.

04/05/2026: 15 euro for 2 pieces of bread??????????

23/04/2026: Lovely view of the harbor. A bowl of water was brought for our dog without us even asking, which was very kind. As for the food, the pesto pasta was decent. The scampi were good, but served without even a small salad or sauce to accompany the dish. It gave an unpleasant feeling of being in a tourist trap, barely welcoming, yet with prices typical of Portofino. Last year we also spent a week here and were never disappointed with lunch or dinner. It's fine to pay a bill that reflects the location, but for a quality meal. This felt more like having eaten in a small snack bar. We didn't feel like having dessert here; we'll have it elsewhere. Perhaps other options on the menu would have been more appropriate, but our neighbors had mussels without fries or salad. So...

19/12/2025: Excellent ceviche, truly street food-like service, and top-notch quality. A little slice of Peru in San Salvario.

15/12/2025: Went for the birthday of our Peruvian nanny. Owner was very rude. He also raised his voice when I asked for my 3 years old son to go to the toilet claiming the place was a take away. Mind that the place had tables for accommodating customers and that bathroom access is mandatory in such case. Food was not real Peruvian and the entire experience was not pleasant.

02/05/2026: Simple restaurant near the station with only Italian-speaking staff, WONDERFUL food, swordfish with tomatoes, small green olives and capers, delicious! 💕

24/04/2026: Disgusting... avoid it. Very greasy, and the side dish (two lettuce leaves) was an extra charge for a frozen fish dish... pffft.
