I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Liguria

08/11/2025: Nothing exceptional, but satisfactory.

03/11/2025: The dishes were plentiful and very good, and the atmosphere was very romantic.

26/04/2025: Spero sia stata solo una confusione momentanea . È uno dei nostri posti del cuore ma l’avvio di stagione è stato in salita. Il fritto di paranza non al livello del solito e soprattutto il servizio davvero impacciato. Tanti giovani che girano spaesati, la seconda bottiglia di vino non pervenuta. Sono sicura riuscirete a raggiungere gli standard degli anni passati… io ci riprovo. Coraggio

26/04/2025: In riva al mare di Imperia abbiamo scoperto un ristorante che merita davvero una visita (e più di una!). L’atmosfera è rilassante, con il suono delle onde a fare da sottofondo a una cucina che sorprende per qualità e cura. Abbiamo iniziato con un antipasto delizioso: una farina di ceci fritta alla perfezione, croccante fuori e morbida dentro, che da sola valeva il viaggio. A seguire una zuppa di cozze e fagioli, un piatto semplice e autentico, dove il sapore del mare si sposa con quello rustico dei legumi. I tagliolini al ragù di pesce erano un altro colpo vincente: pasta fresca, condimento saporito e leggero. Ma il vero capolavoro è stata la frittura di pesce con verdure: asciutta, croccante, leggera, fatta davvero ad arte. Una menzione speciale va al cannolo con ricotta, che da palermitano non posso che lodare: la scorza croccante, la ricotta freschissima e ben dosata, un finale perfetto per un pranzo memorabile. Un posto da segnare e da ripetere quanto prima!

12/10/2025: A rustic and well-worn yacht club, definitely a laid-back atmosphere overlooking the beach and the sea. The focaccia was good, but the trofie with pesto was unfortunately a bit mediocre. For the main course, there was only mixed fried fish, and after seeing the first course, I didn't feel like trying it. The meringue and chocolate dessert was delicious, without pretensions. Without trying to influence anyone, I'm not sure if I'd recommend it.

07/09/2025: We stopped for lunch. It's more of a bar than a restaurant, with a decent menu but the food is mediocre. The two first courses we ordered were nothing special, just like the restaurants nearby. The young man who served us was very friendly, but finding waiters like that, after all, dispels the myth that Ligurians aren't friendly.

09/11/2025: The service was quite rude from the start: unfriendly, curt responses, and a general rushed attitude, almost as if I were bothering them. The bread was cold and unappealing. The food itself was decent, nothing memorable, but not bad either: you eat it, but you're left with nothing that makes you say, "I'll definitely be back." The thing that left me most perplexed was the coffee: the cup was dirty on the outside, you could see it had been poured poorly and served carelessly. In short: it wasn't a tragedy, but for me, the combination of overlooked details and lack of courtesy means it's not a place I'd enthusiastically return to.

30/10/2025: Excellent service and wonderful food.

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.

27/10/2025: A wonderful time! The service was truly impeccable, attentive, and warm. The wine was excellent, and what can I say about the tomato bruschetta? Simply exceptional! A place to recommend🍷🍅

20/09/2025: Not sure how they are a wine bar with only 1 white and 1 red to choose from by the glass, but a €6 glass of wine with some olives, chips and bread is a good deal

19/10/2025: Difficult to get to but once you get there...the place is magnificent and the food simple but delicious

21/09/2025: A restaurant located in the Modena Apennines, with a stunning view. The only dishes served are borlenghi, tigelle, and gnocco fritto (fried dumplings) with cured meats and cheeses. Everything is excellent, freshly cooked by the family who have run the restaurant for over forty years. The bill for two people was about €50 total. Some reviews complained about the service being a bit slow; although we didn't find it that way, it's still worth waiting for fragrant borlenghi while sipping a glass of Lambrusco in the shade of the trees. Highly recommended for a day trip.

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.

24/08/2025: Beautiful place to relax with music and excellent cocktails, the owner Pino is very kind, we will definitely be back!

13/08/2025: I've been waiting for 3 hours DC

22/09/2025: I happened to be at the beach today! Hoping for a relaxing day!! But...unpleasant staff, poor customer service, hostile and unfriendly atmosphere!!! It's not as advertised...what more can I say...not recommended!!

20/09/2025: I happened to be at the beach today! Hoping for a relaxing day!! But...unpleasant staff, poor customer service, hostile and unfriendly atmosphere!!! It's not as true as advertised...what more can I say...better not say anything else...not recommended!!

15/10/2025: An unforgettable experience of cuisine and service in an elegant setting overlooking the Portofino pier.

13/10/2025: Good day, have been there on saturday. Was super expensive. Expected better food for this price. Don’t recommend this place.

19/10/2025: Here you'll find sweets such as pastries and Neapolitan specialties, fresh gelato cakes, mozzarella from Campania, and traditional Italian desserts. It's a popular location for aperitifs and is also a popular choice for baptisms and children's birthday parties. The menu is well-established and guaranteed to have you out (even with music, if you like). The staff is very friendly. Also excellent for breakfast, quick lunches (CAPPATOSTA toast), and aperitif dinners. Located in the harbor, it's also near the public parking lot of the Torre and Arsenale. It's just across the Darsena/Torretta pedestrian bridge.

18/10/2025: It's a shame to speak badly of a place in my city. I've been waiting for half an hour while the waitress takes orders from all the other tables. They're totally disorganized. I've already gone in three times to ask if they'll take my order. There's no point in staying open if you don't train the staff.

01/08/2025: Great food friendly staff and very reasonably priced. The rabbit is exceptional. Might become our favourite GOTO eatery.

16/06/2025: Fantastico locale in un caratteristico "carugio" ligure. Ottimo il cibo e buonissimi anche i cocktail. Il personale ti fa sentire di casa. Ambiente rilassato e divertente! Ogni tanto si affaccia della fauna indigena molto interessante. Tornerò sicuramente! (Attenti ad Asia)

29/09/2025: I can only give one star, but simply because otherwise I can't write a negative review. Unfortunately, the rudeness and arrogance disguised as rudeness meant I never went back to the place... Sunday, September 28, 2025, at 1:40 PM, while I was looking at their signs to go get a smoothie, which I had just seen on the product labels outside the entrance. A male person, later identified as a presumed servant, waiter, or other unhelpful person, approached me from behind, banging his shoe violently on the ground to make noise. I asked why, as the deafening noise of his thumping on the ground made me jump. The individual arrogantly, without apologizing or saying anything else, told me I was looking up and that he had to get work done and move on. I demanded an explanation because I was supposed to enter his bar and was looking at the menu outside, but, having been called out by a colleague for my behavior, he loudly stated that I was tripping him... (I assume there are also cameras with video to extract from this false statement, which should also be legally pursued). Now at this point, what can one think, given such rudeness, falsehood, and charlatanism? The street isn't the restaurant's, but a passageway to the outside tables, just as it is for people like me who were also entering the restaurant in question. No apology, just rudeness on the part of the waiter or someone in his stead, and given the other negative reviews, I think his name was also Alessandro, who was also a show-off and a bully (but didn't come out from behind the counter to explain), like the sheep he showed himself to be. Best wishes to the other people who work with him inside... They probably don't get along well with such a rude person... and it all reflects on the management of the place and the customers who also feed him... Furthermore, I personally sent a report of what happened to the competent authorities, both municipal and in charge of control, to consider possibly revoking the authorization to operate the outdoor terrace. Besides, if the staff is having difficulty with pedestrians on the street, they can't possibly be able to obtain authorization to operate the outdoor terrace, precisely because of the difficulty the bar operator has expressed. You never know who you'll meet along the way... There are people who are looking for a fight, just like the individual, and plainclothes staff who always have the final say... Ad maiora

21/09/2025: Very good aperitif and the staff was very kind!

12/10/2025: The best spicy pizza I've ever eaten... If you're looking for Italian food, this is the best place. Long live Poligano a Maré! Thank you!!

26/09/2025: Super!! My favorite in rapallo!
