I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Liguria

03/10/2025: Signora Gianna cooks fabulously. We arrived late but were greeted like royalty. The menu is all homemade, all local, by the lovely Gianna (90 years old!!). US Cigolese will definitely be back: if you're passing through, come here. Even if you're not passing through. Highly recommended. We'll definitely be back; the specialties she cooks are truly inviting.

06/09/2025: A rather unique campsite, I'd say a bit hippie-esque. Minus points are the train tracks right next to the campsites and the bathrooms, straight out of Harry Potter.

08/08/2025: FIRST OF ALL: You simply can't compare German standards here with those there. This is an older, simple campsite where the focus is on spending the night and occasionally swimming; it wouldn't have been suitable for us for longer stays in a camper/tent. There are a lot of Italians there at the moment, as they also vacation there from the mainland, depending on the season. We stayed here for 3 nights, and I have to praise the campsite. Communication via WhatsApp was problem-free, and the staff was very friendly! There are plenty of trash containers, and electricity and WiFi are available at the bar. We got a tent spot in the front row, right on the beach. The price is relatively normal by German standards. The bar there is fantastic; a very nice gentleman there, and very good coffee no matter when you feel like it. I think it's ideal for spending the night, occasionally jumping into the sea, and walking into town. The main sanitary facilities are old Italian and not in great condition, but you can use the much newer, better sanitary facilities on the property opposite by the mobile homes as this belongs to the campsite, so everything was fine for us as far as that was concerned.

15/10/2025: A collapse in quality and service with the new management... not to mention the cleanliness which used to be impeccable but is now very questionable... ethnic music managed by Indian-Pakistani staff or something similar... as is the table service. It was a beautiful place and should be avoided at all costs today.

21/09/2025: We wanted to grab a coffee and sit for a few minutes overlooking the sea. Terrible service, the focaccia ran out at 9:30, and a coffee costs 2.50, and it's not even good. There are better places.

10/11/2025: For some reason, we were the only ones served drinks in plastic cups instead of glasses.

08/11/2025: The pizzas are delicious, as are the prawns ☺️, and at very affordable prices.

14/09/2025: Simple and welcoming place, quality food, and friendly staff. The prices are also fair.

17/08/2025: Not a very positive experience. I ordered pasta with clams, mussels, and shrimp, and the fish had zero flavor (seeing other reviews, it's happened to other customers as well). The owner was rude and, judging by her attitude, seemed annoyed. The mussels and clams weren't very clean—there was some sand in them—but they were still edible. That evening, looking back at the bill, something didn't add up. In fact, when I calculated the amount we'd consumed, the total was wrong... she'd overcharged us! A place with untapped potential and a friendly atmosphere that needs revisiting.

10/10/2025: Dinner with friends from San Terenzo Appetizer, first course, and second course: all very good, service as always fast. I especially enjoyed the stuffed mussels from the appetizer and the paccheri with mussels. Welcoming staff; I recommend it.

29/09/2025: September 28, 2025. I dined here with colleagues during a business trip. The restaurant is very elegant and the location is charming. The menu is rather simple, but the dishes are well-prepared and the ingredients are top-quality. I'm giving it 4 out of 5 stars because I think the price of some dishes is excessive for the quantity, such as the creamed cod I ordered as an appetizer. I highly recommend this place if you want to make a good impression.

10/08/2025: A beautiful place, but unfortunately, given the "standing" it aims to maintain, it falls short in some respects, specifically in the following areas: - Tables in the gazebos with rust spots - Side curtains on the gazebo partially missing. - Dirty/stained sun lounger mattress (we asked for it to be replaced, and it was promptly replaced with apologies for the inconvenience). - Bathroom hygiene needs updating (lack of toilet paper in the women's bathroom and cleanliness needs improving). In my opinion, the price paid doesn't match what's offered. Considering that the price for 5 hours (from 2 pm to 7 pm) is €137, I would have expected greater quality and attention to service. It wouldn't take much, especially considering the number of gazebos (28), to make this beach truly the "gem" and most exclusive beach in Santa Margherita, as advertised. I'd also like to point out that we purchased a thermal water bottle. It's very nice looking, with the bathroom logo on it, but it doesn't keep the water cold at all, even though it was guaranteed to work properly at the time of purchase. (Please avoid making any comments without first having verified your claims, to avoid disappointment.) Regarding the restaurant, since we didn't eat there, I can't express any opinion, but having read the dishes offered and given the location, I feel compelled to give a positive assessment. Another positive note was the receptionist, who demonstrated courtesy and professionalism. P.S.: I've changed my rating from 3 to 1 star because I'd like to point out that after just 7 days, the thermal water bottle has rust spots on both the cap and the inside (as shown in the photo). This is absurd; it's unsafe to use, as you risk drinking rust. Any feedback is appreciated.

01/08/2025: This year, like last year, we chose this beach resort for its proximity to home and the gazebos, but we discovered at the start of the season that the management had changed. We immediately had problems with bookings: we therefore decided to start with a week, from Monday, June 30th to Sunday, and this already created problems because the weekly stay, for which we had been asked to pay €1,250 in advance, could not be made due to the different rates between the months of June and July. Therefore, we immediately paid €1,400 for the Monday of June and the week from Tuesday to the following Monday (July). Unfortunately, due to force majeure (bad weather), we lost three days of the booked period, so my husband asked the manager if we could make up the days on other days. He was told that we could only make up two, and although we didn't fully agree, we accepted (at €200 per day). When we rebooked for the two-day make-up session, we were told we were only booking one day, not two. At that point, we replied that we wouldn't be willing to negotiate like in a Marrakech souk, and that in a €200-a-day establishment, customers deserve a service that's proportionate and worthy of the price they pay. Bottom line: three paid days wasted and service subpar due to incompetence and a lack of professionalism, but above all, lost customers.

09/08/2025: Terrible quality, terrible service. If you're Italian, avoid!

23/07/2025: Horrible place. We ordered mussel soup — they brought us something that looked like slop on a plate: shrimp full of sand, mussels that smelled rotten. As I expected, I got food poisoning even though I only ate a few. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone! _________________ Locale orribile. Abbiamo ordered a zuppa di cozze — I hanno portato a specialty of schifezza nel piatto: gamberi pieni di sabbia, cozze che puzzavano di marcio. Come immaginavo, mi sono intossicata anche se ne ho mangiate solo un paio. Non lo consiglio a nessuno!

02/07/2025: Workers' menu: •Terrible service and sometimes rude staff •Tasteless food And yet it takes so little, they will never see me again.

25/06/2025: We arrived late, but a piece of focaccia would have been enough… they sat us down. There was only one first course left: pasta with aubergines, but due to a strong allergy we couldn’t eat it. We opted for two second courses: dry omelette roll (last available portion) and rubbery and flavourless chicken, but both served with well-cooked potatoes. We ordered a beer and soda (panaché) and a can of sprite and a small beer in a medium glass arrived. It makes a better impression to say it’s not there: €5.80 is too much. Cost: €26.50

05/09/2025: 30 minutes before closing they don't answer the phone a genius who pays them then Friday evening a disgrace butile asks is open then if they advertise home delivery not the first time

21/07/2025: To whoever took the order today, July 21, 2025, at approximately 1:10 PM, I would advise them to change jobs so as not to let the Hamburger Restaurant go bankrupt. We ordered two burgers, specifically asking for them to be rare, as overcooked meat is inedible. Bear in mind that there were only four people in the restaurant at the time, so it was empty. The kitchen certainly wasn't working hard. Well, the first one arrived after 5 minutes (an acceptable amount of time), and the second after over 10 minutes, but BOTH OVERCOOKED!!!! I wanted to be very calm and polite, because workers can make mistakes, and point out to the person who took the order that the burgers were overcooked, almost stringy. The response?: I'M SORRY, THE KITCHEN FORGOT THEM ON THE GRILL... shrugging and asking the next customer for their order!!!!!!!! We've been eating there for years with colleagues and friends, but I'll do everything I can to persuade anyone to come and eat there. I've read some reviews, and based on their approach, what happened to me today isn't an isolated incident!

27/08/2025: The pizzas were large for 4 people, we took 2 pizzas and we were full. I recommend

16/08/2025: I ordered a Nutella crepe and was given a crepe-sized pancake. The flavor, thickness, and filling were all made according to the recipe and method of a pancake. The cashiers were the same people preparing the dishes, so I had to wait about 10 minutes to order.

16/09/2025: Everything was excellent. The staff was very friendly. I will repeat it every time I return to Borghetto.

14/09/2025: Good pizza and good fried food, courteous and knowledgeable staff

04/08/2025: Trusted bakery for years, the best in town

06/07/2025: Very rude manager to an elderly lady who simply asked to replace a piece of sardenara with edges with one without edges from a new pan even though she had already paid for it he refused to replace it saying that the rule of his warehouse rather than shop requires to finish the old pan first before starting the new one now so you do not satisfy the wish of a poor elderly lady for this stupidity of yours and not only was she made fun of by saying that she had no more sardenara and as soon as the lady left he ran to the back of his phantom warehouse to get the new pan of sardenara and when she returned to ask to buy another piece he, the great rude and great rude person that he is, said I don't serve you in this shop anymore go away. Now these are the shopkeepers we should help in times of crisis but if he closed the business and went to work as a dishwasher he would be doing a huge favor 🙏 to the community. Aside from the fact that by law no shopkeeper can refuse to serve paying customers, I'm limiting myself to this review to avoid reporting what happened.

10/09/2025: Nice place, shame it's very neglected and the service leaves a lot to be desired. I can say I wouldn't go back...
