I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Liguria

02/03/2025: Locale tipico ligure, servizio molto cortese, iniziamo con la farinata classica 8€ favolosa voto 10 super TOP , croccante ma non unta , difficile eguagliarla. Per me rimane sempre la migliore comunque proviamo quella con le cipolline (secondo me sono porri) di una delicatezza infinita voto 9 ed infine quella al gorgonzola molto goduriosa voto 8. Troppo gentili ci offrono anche un caffè, è una tappa fissa da fare sicuramente

24/02/2025: Mai più!!! Personale scortese e male organizzato, sono andato con amici e a parte il fatto che ci hanno “imposto” cosa prendere hanno fatto una grande confusione e non hanno portato tutto quello che avevamo ordinato facendocelo comunque pagare. Farinata tutto sommato buona ma è arrivata tutta spezzettata come se fossero avanzi!!! Siamo andati via con la fame, esperienza pessima

06/10/2025: I don't want to be too harsh. Let's just say you shouldn't eat there on purpose. But if you're in the area, after a nice hike up Monte Maggio, a great vantage point, you can stop for a bite to eat at this "restaurant" (wouldn't it have been better to call it a trattoria or an osteria?) where the atmosphere takes you back to the 1960s, the food is very cheap, but it tastes like a canteen. It's a shame, because it wouldn't take much to improve enough to make it acceptable, perhaps by raising the prices by a few euros. On the other hand, the lady is very kind and quick. Of course, they don't have a POS.

14/07/2025: Good food and very kind and friendly lady

29/09/2025: Located in front of the Friday (food) market. The four of us all ordered the tuna salad. It was served in a huge bowl. Tuna was hard to find but I did find half a piece of a hard boiled egg. The rest was lettuce. Incredibly disappointing. Not recommended. Spend your money somewhere else. (Food market was closed so that's why we ate there).

26/09/2025: I can't believe all these positive reviews! The wait was ENDLESS. I can't say more because we left after 39 minutes, even though the bar wasn't that busy! But the staff kept laughing and joking with other people and serving them first! NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

13/10/2025: I had booked Friday 10/10 for Sunday 12/10 for a day in Monterosso. The owner or someone on his behalf told me, "Don't worry, we're in low season and there's no crowds." I'll leave my last name and cell phone number. On Sunday 12/10 we arrived for lunch and, to our disbelief, there was a note on the restaurant door saying they were closed due to a technical problem. It's okay that a problem could arise, but if you have reservations and you know you can't keep them with the contact details, it might be better to call to let them know what happened. Or, it's only the customer's obligation to call if they cancel. I'm sorry, but the problem was finding a place in other restaurants since we're in low season and there's no crowds. If we wanted to have lunch, we settled for a bit of focaccia and ate standing up.

24/09/2025: Very disappointing. Exactly 6 ravioli on the plate; we didn't taste the truffle. Not a bad dish, but €55 for 2 people and leaving on an empty stomach... I absolutely do not recommend it.

21/08/2025: Dated hotel. The room we stayed in was quite run-down, with a half-broken French window, a rusty towel warmer, a blind bathroom with a fan that begged for mercy. The parking lot is a pothole. Breakfast has limited choices and all packaged products. It doesn't justify the price. It's a shame because, on the contrary, the staff is very kind and helpful, and the restaurant area is very beautiful.

09/08/2025: Very relaxing, clean hotel Restaurant with excellent menu Very friendly and helpful staff

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...

20/09/2025: 5 stars for: - friendliness - service - Adel and pistachio cream 😂

20/09/2025: Impeccable service from the very kind waitress and good espresso

13/07/2025: Un ritorno un po' deludente a questo ristorante che aspira ad essere di alto livello, e che ho già recensito un anno fa , per una cena con amici: la serata è tiepida, con una splendida luna sul mare. Il servizio è molto gentile e il menu ha alcune opzioni senza glutine. Ma...ma..a mio parere alcuni aspetti vanno decisamente migliorati. Intanto le porzioni sono piuttosto esigue in relazione al costo, i piatti risultano un po' basici e talora scarichi di sapore, anche se la materia prima è ottima. Uno dei commensali ed io ordiniamo l'antipasto di polpo, per me senza glutine : quando ci portano i piatti, poichè sembrano uguali, chiedo conferma al cameriere, che porgendomi uno dei due piatti risponde "PENSO sia senza glutine", per noi celiaci frase da orrore puro, perchè abbiamo bisogno di certezze. Su mia cortese richiesta il giovane cameriereva a a chiedere in cucina e, per fortuna, entrambi i piatti sono gluten free. Ritengo importante che si implementino i corsi sulle intolleranze anche per il personale di sala, onde evitare situazioni di incertezza. Tornando al menu...Il tentacolo di polpo è di medie dimensioni e poggia su una crema di ceci (insapore). Di secondo ordino pesce al sale, un pagello freschissimo che mi viene mostrato a crudo, e che, mi dice il cameriere, pesa sui 600 gr. , quindi un bel pesce. Peccato che quando mi arriva il piatto cucinato, i grammi siano al massimo 180/200, e presentati davvero male: la polpa è "smaciullata" e piena di spine, cosa che francamente trovo inammissibile in un ristorante così ambizioso. Inoltre, pur se buono, il pesce è troppo cotto e quindi risulta stopposo. Mio marito prende il gran fritto di pesce, che a nostro parere di "gran" ha solo la dicitura sul menu. Molto interessante la carta dei vini. Non potendo mangiare dolci, chiedo una coppetta di frutti di bosco (mirtilli, lamponi o fragole), ma non hanno nulla. Spesa: 256 euro x 4 persone, che con lo sconto diventano 240, per due piatti esigui a testa - tranne mio marito che ha preso solo il fritto - due dolci, una bottiglia di vino, un caffè. Abito in zona, ma credo non tornerò, e lo dico a malincuore perchè le potenzialità ci sono.

06/07/2025: Cena molto buona in una bella location, personale molto gentile e disponibile. Ottimi piatti di pesce ben presentati. L’unica pecca le tempistiche, attese un po’ lunghe.

16/09/2025: The food and sweets are decent We picked few pizzas and sweets a few times from There. The taste is nice, and the prices are decent. However, you can’t eat at the tables outside. Def recommend and be back if around

16/08/2025: The “lady” at the counter skipped us 2 times serving Italian people first while my 5 year old daughter was thirsty and we wanted to buy the water in 35 degrees heat. This is Rapallo…

11/10/2025: Terrible service, expensive and no atmosphere.

11/10/2025: The saddest service you can imagine!

08/10/2025: We had lunch as a worker, seeing as other restaurants in the area were closed for vacation. The first course was acceptable, trofie with pesto, but the breaded chicken was embarrassing: it stank, inedible, obviously spoiled. Kudos to the chef with no sense of smell... Shame. NEVER again.

08/09/2025: Excellent place, seafood dishes at reasonable prices. It's definitely not the typical "tourist-spoiling" restaurant we're used to on the Riviera. Excellent service, probably young women fresh out of hotel school, very knowledgeable and diligent. The kitchen staff is also very young but precise and knowledgeable. The place is clean and tidy.

26/07/2025: Con mia moglie siamo stati a cena in questo ristorante di cucina tipica ligure elegante raffinato ubicato in pieno centro a Santa Margherita Ligure nella zona pedonale. Ci siamo accomodati in uno dei vari tavoli all’aperto con vista sulla via e ci sono anche tavoli interni. Abbiamo ordinato come antipasti: una insalata caprese con mozzarella di bufala dop pomodoro perle di basilico e verdure grigliate Come secondi abbiamo optato per il pesce con dei calamari fritti ed una orata alla ligure. Ottimo il pane portato a tavola. Ottima la qualità degli antipasti e del pesce porzioni giuste squsito. Personale accogliehte sorridente competente cordiale e disponibile. Servizio attentissimo e veloce e prezzi cari ma giusti per la qualità dei piatti. My wife and I had dinner at this elegant and refined restaurant serving traditional Ligurian cuisine, located in the pedestrian area of Santa Margherita Ligure. We sat at one of the several outdoor tables overlooking the street, and there are also indoor tables. For appetizers, we ordered: a Caprese salad with DOP buffalo mozzarella, tomato, basil pearls and grilled vegetables. For main courses, we opted for fish with fried calamari and Ligurian-style sea bream. The bread served was excellent. The quality of the appetizers was excellent, and the fish was delicious, with generous portions. The staff was welcoming, smiling, competent, friendly, and helpful. The service was very attentive and fast, and the prices were expensive but fair for the quality of the dishes.

26/07/2025: Cené en Angolo 48 recientemente y tuve sentimientos encontrados sobre la experiencia. La comida era buena, con sabores decentes, pero el tamaño de las porciones era decepcionantemente pequeño para el precio. Lamentablemente, el personal fue bastante antipático, lo que restó valor a la experiencia general. Si bien el qual ITy de los platos era sólido, las porciones pequeñas y el mal servicio hacen que sea difícil de recomendar.

27/10/2025: "Service was excellent, but my meal was a flop." The waiter was super friendly and seemed to be trying hard. Personally, I found all six dishes served to us (both starters and main courses) to be underwhelming in terms of taste. One of the starters looked exceptionally poorly presented to me. This could have been due to the fact that our visit was just a few days before the end of the season, close to the winter break. I found all six different dishes to be impressive. The portions tended to be on the smaller side.

18/10/2025: We ate there five times in total and tried our way through the menu. It was consistently excellent, and the NY cheesecake is simply amazing! 🤩

20/08/2025: The only place in Italy where I ordered a juice and it didn't arrive at room temperature (hot), it arrived nice and fresh with quality oranges.

27/07/2025: A waterfront establishment with friendly and helpful staff. Very well-kept and clean, with both indoor and outdoor seating. One of the few places where the soy milk cappuccino is made properly...well done!

19/05/2025: Welcoming staff, good and plentiful food, we will return

26/04/2025: We often go there when we go to Ventimiglia, good pizza with lots of seasonings, very good fish cooked very well as well as the desserts, courteous and competent staff, good prices for being on the sea.
