I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Liguria

14/10/2025: Great for business lunches, the food is excellent and you can even choose fresh meat to have cooked on the spot. A small criticism about the storage of the dishes; many times, especially the main courses, were not hot. A pass!

13/10/2025: I wanted to thank all the staff in the Pastry department for preparing a fantastic berry tart for my daughter's birthday! Well done guys!! Courtesy and trust! See you next time!

19/09/2025: Very welcoming place. High-quality, traditional Genoese food. Very friendly service. Recommended.

18/09/2025: Genoa is the pesto capital, so you expect quality. Here, however, it was one of the worst pestos I've ever tried: too salty. €13 for this dish is a steal; it was worth €8–9 at most. I also had the meat: ordinary, nothing special. For €16, you expect something remarkable, but it was a €10 dish. The salad was already wilted, the bread dry and flavorless, like stale bread. The fries definitely tasted like fried calamari—clearly fried in the same oil—disgusting. I didn't eat them, but they charged me anyway. The service was terrible. The total bill: €53. For what? A meal worse than one at a service station. At least the food is better on the highway. Conclusion: The "cook" is incompetent; anyone can cook better at home. If he thinks he's a chef, he should stop immediately. Answer: Next time, instead of completely denying the poor quality of your restaurant and service, simply change the oil and stop frying fries in the same oil as calamari. The restaurant is awful, the staff is awful, the atmosphere is awful, and the food is simply salty, greasy, and carelessly made. If the pesto is too salty, then the pesto is too salty—it's as simple as that. Since you're in Genoa, at least learn how to make proper pesto; that's the least you can do. If you can't accept criticism and acknowledge that the food is subpar, that's your problem. You can deny it all you want, but the facts don't change, and if need be, I'll continue writing reviews every day. You talk to me about politeness, I'll talk to you about the deplorable quality of your food: get over it, I don't care if you don't have the courage to face the reality of your job. If this is cooking and running a restaurant for you, then clearly we don't have the same standards—and it shouldn't even exist. If the food is rubbish, I won't eat it. That's my standard. Opening a restaurant and not knowing how to make pesto means you should probably look for another job. The same goes for chips that taste like fried squid: it's an absolute disgrace.

28/08/2025: Nice atmosphere. Really unpopular service. Unpopular. Rather limited menu selection. Inedible meat. Good tuna tartare. Fair prices.

21/08/2025: Elegant atmosphere and courteous, prompt staff. We discovered the Universale restaurant by chance but were pleasantly surprised. The dishes are well-prepared: beautiful to look at and delicious to eat! The black lasagna and the amberjack steak are highly recommended.

28/06/2025: I don't argue about the quality of the ice cream, given the rudeness of the girl I ran away before even tasting it. Instead of working they wander on the phone! And woe betide anyone who disturbs.... Really low class.

27/08/2025: This year, Scalvini was my go-to breakfast spot during the August holidays. I chose to alternate a bit of everything from one morning to the next, trying various products: I started with a slice of classic Ligurian white focaccia (here without lard); with whole wheat and whole wheat with added seeds. I continued with the brioche with just the right amount of sweet jam and a cream bombolone, perhaps a little too fried—I didn't digest it very well. I finished with the vegan brioche with green stripes and finally with puff pastry squares filled with ham and stracchino cheese. I went every morning when they opened, even though Ilaria makes you wait a few minutes... but the products and her friendliness definitely make it worth it.

11/08/2025: The focaccia is really good, fresh, and flavorful. Unfortunately, the service leaves much to be desired; in a place that relies heavily on tourism, you'd expect at least a smile and a little kindness.

07/09/2025: A truly high-quality bread shop. From the outside, it looks like a gigantic space, but the public area is truly tiny and cramped. The staff is kind and friendly.

14/06/2025: Very good products for those who prefer sourdough starter. It's a bakery, not a restaurant.

02/09/2025: Aperitif with friends. A pleasant evening in a relaxed atmosphere. The house-produced sparkling white wine was a favorite!

31/08/2025: It's true that it's a farmhouse, but having lunch with two rats crawling on the wall wasn't pleasant. We dismissed it with a "but we're in the countryside." Before leaving, we also purchased a wine of their own production.....I would have given it away for free. Never mind, I won't be back.

04/10/2025: The cuisine is excellent, and the choice on the menu is wide

26/07/2025: A good breakfast with various types of cakes. If there had been fresh croissants, I would have given even more.

17/09/2025: Locale tranquillo, brave e carine le ragazze dello staff

29/07/2025: If you have any special requests, just ask and they will be happy to accommodate you with kindness and professionalism!

13/10/2025: At Mondino, a bar, pastry shop, and bakery, you can find everything others can't offer; including: experience, friendliness, and a truly passionate fan base; along with the entire staff and management. You can find everything from sweet to savory at an incredibly low price. Croissants, cappuccinos, and cannolis; you can also find pizzas and mini pizzas as an appetizer or dinner, or even better, as an aperitif. Come visit them! You'll be amazed at how cheaply you can get so much goodness. I recommend it. Then you decide!

06/10/2025: For breakfast We had two cappuccinos and two croissants, one pistachio and one cream-filled. The pistachio one was empty. I pointed this out to the waiter, but nothing. I went to pay, pointed it out again, and nothing, not even a commercial gesture...

12/05/2025: Conseillé par notre hôtel, nous sommes rendus dans ce restaurant et franchement l’accueil est vraiment à revoir, restaurant froid et la nourriture n’est pas franchement excellente et surtout les proportions dans les assiettes sont ridicules

29/04/2025: Siamo stati trattati egregiamente e il crudo di pesce è abbondate e freschissimo. Torneremo sicuramente, consigliatissimo!

27/08/2025: Very familiar place, congratulations and thanks again for everything

30/07/2025: I've stopped at this restaurant on my way to Alassio twice now. The atmosphere is clean, basic, but very nice. The staff is helpful, and the food is very good. We had a mixed fried fish dish, and the fish was very fresh. Prices are average.

23/07/2025: The entire staff treated us all as family. They were generous and the food was wonderful, fresh, local cuisine.

30/06/2025: Neglected place, without a sign that makes its identity clear. In my opinion, the prices are too high to justify the place and the quality of the food. A 20 euro fish appetizer where the fish was almost absent and the salmon tasted stale... The badly cooked grilled fish where I had to give up the overcooked tuna... I gave up dessert and coffee to limit the DAMAGE... honestly, the owners need to review some things. For me it was not a happy expense...

05/08/2025: We've been to this restaurant in Ospedaletti three nights in a row and were thrilled each time. The fish was always incredibly fresh, carefully cooked, and truly delicious. We tried several specialties and, on a few nights, even ordered takeout because we wanted to eat at the hotel 🌸 The staff is incredibly kind and welcoming. Even though they don't speak any foreign languages, they always make an effort to understand their customers' needs and make you feel at home. The atmosphere is simple, familiar, and authentic—here you'll find locals who truly love their job and their restaurant, not just seasonal workers or random waiters. If you're looking for a luxurious place with high expectations, this isn't the place for you. But if you want to eat well in a warm and authentic environment, it's definitely worth a try! The prices are very affordable and fair!

04/08/2025: Excellent. From the outside, it doesn't look like anything special—just another restaurant like many others—but dining is a joy in every sense of the word. Quality, price, and courtesy. Highly recommended.

26/09/2025: Bored look Waitress managed to say just buongiorno, but was looking to elsewhere than me. Thrown menus To the table and left. After that I wasn't willinng to pay 13€ from one beer.

16/09/2025: I advise the manager, or if you can call her that, to change her attitude toward customers. Her only advantage is that being in a touristy area, it's difficult to work with loyal customers. If she were to work in a small town bar, there would definitely be no one to work with her, given her rudeness.
