I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Liguria

10/05/2026: For those like me who enjoy a good piadina every now and then, this is the place to be. Piadinas for all tastes, even for me, a veggie lover, or for my daughter, who's a Nutella addict. The staff is friendly and helpful.

11/04/2026: They are so slow…it is quicker to order food in a restaurant and eat than here at “fast food”…

03/05/2026: A very charming place, in a truly charming and pleasant location, perfect for a quiet stop. The setting is well-kept and overall truly beautiful, with a welcoming atmosphere. The food was quite good, with decent and satisfying dishes. One small complaint: one of the sandwiches we ordered was missing the arugula. Prices were average, and the experience was overall positive.

01/05/2026: Spritz is ok, 7 euros, but they don't need much prosecco, it's all aperol, this morning the focaccia was dry (old or the oven doesn't know how to make it); good coffee

08/05/2026: Hotel Cristallo is definitely a choice to consider if you're traveling in Liguria. From there you can easily reach any place in the surrounding area, if you're tired and want to rest, there are coves within walking distance, places to drink an aperitif or eat dinner and lunch, a beautiful place to enjoy the sunset. A special thanks to all the staff at Hotel Cristallo who always welcomed us with a smile and accompanied us throughout our stay, what can I say about breakfast, I'm speechless, that's a brunch 😋😋😋😋, special homemade cakes, fruit, freshly made eggs, in short, the best you could wish for, thank you so much again for the welcome and see you soon 😚💖😘

03/05/2026: We vacationed here over the weekend and found the people there to be kind and helpful. The owner, Paolo, is a wonderful person, he makes you feel at home. Excellent location, quiet and convenient with a shuttle bus to the center of Lerici. Rooms are a little dated but clean. Breakfast is fantastic. We'll definitely be back.

01/05/2026: For those who frequent the Aveto Valley, it's a culinary must-try, but it's worth a quick word about this family-run restaurant. The staff is attentive, punctual, and incredibly friendly! The restaurant has an old-fashioned feel, reminiscent of a mountain chalet—we're right in the heart of the Apennines, after all! A highlight is the open grill, where the owner's son works his magic! Yes, because anyone who comes here simply has to try the grilled meats... top-quality ingredients expertly cooked! Everything is delicious, from appetizers to dessert, but the grill is a real must-try!

23/04/2026: We stopped by on a weekday while passing through Santo Stefano d'Aveto. We had a great time, in fact, we purposely returned the next day. The food was simple but good, and the staff was friendly and helpful...we had a wonderful time. Recommended.

04/04/2026: We visited this restaurant in Levanto with three adults and two children and had a really good time. The service was very friendly and attentive, always available even for the little ones, which we really appreciated. The prices are absolutely reasonable and well-proportioned for the quality of the dishes. We ate well, but a special mention goes to the seafood risotto: truly excellent, flavorful, and well-cooked. Overall, a positive experience that we recommend, especially for those traveling with family.

31/10/2025: Very tasty food, full enjoyment

30/11/2025: Lunch at Muinà was a birthday present for my partner, and it was excellent! After the "usual" enormous house appetizer, we decided to try two truly unusual dishes: linguine with sea bream sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, capers, chili pepper, and crunchy baked breadcrumbs. The carefully measured chili pepper gave the dish a special touch, but without overpowering the other flavors! For the main course, the larded shrimp on a gorgonzola cream sauce, another highly unusual combination, but absolutely successful! Two bottles of fruity and pleasant Ligurian Vermentino obviously accounted for almost half of the bill, so the quality/price ratio remains excellent, especially for a restaurant that's been in business for 175 years. Congratulations, and see you next time!

16/11/2025: Traditional trattoria--- 15€ lunch menu was great. A nice stop on way to Pesto di Pra producers.

28/05/2026: Delicious pizza, excellent service, beautiful location, breathtaking view...10/10 A king's breakfast with excellent focaccia and desserts...

27/05/2026: Business lunch, cool and panoramic location.

08/05/2026: Terrible: we ordered gnocchi alla sorrentina and a pizza. The gnocchi were rubbery and tasted like the ones from the supermarket bag. The pizza was burnt on the bottom and not as good as it was a few months ago. It's a shame they've changed for the worse: lowering quality for the sake of profit.

04/05/2026: Pizza cooked to perfection, service excellent, overall a great experience.

02/05/2026: Great location, very friendly staff, maybe a little expensive but that's understandable considering the quality.

01/03/2026: Today I went to eat at this restaurant, where you can enjoy the typical cuisine of the Ligurian hinterland. Excellent dishes, quickly prepared. The venison ragù on the pappardelle was excellent. Fair prices.

05/05/2026: Even as a tourist, this small stop off the main path is well worth it. Service was excellent on top of the terrace and prices are incredibly reasonable.

19/04/2026: We discovered this bar by chance, as it's not on the busiest streets, but it was a pleasant surprise! Super friendly and welcoming, we had breakfast there every morning, with croissants with amazing apricot jam. The aperitif was also excellent, plentiful and reasonably priced. Highly recommended!

22/04/2026: We received a warm welcome and friendly service. The Caesar salad was good, the spaghetti vongole was bland… :( And for €18, you'd expect more mussels, in my opinion. I've definitely had much better in this region of Italy. The fritto misto was so-so… My neighbor's lasagna was apparently delicious. The tiramisu was great 👍🏼 Bottles of white wine all cost around €22, which is perfectly reasonable for a tourist area.

18/04/2026: American-style pizza, only 3.5 cm thick, instead of typical Italian pizza. They advertise it as such, so it's clear what to expect. We had fish. The restaurant was full. Courses were served one after the other. Friendly and attentive service.

10/04/2026: We had a really good time. The owners were very friendly and courteous, and gave us advice on which types of meat to try. The atmosphere was quiet, although sometimes there were large groups of people (birthdays and other special occasions), making the dining room a bit noisier, but overall it was acceptable. We've been back for a second time, and I can only confirm the quality of their meat. See you soon. Highly recommended.

01/02/2026: Super meat, Alfonso and Gianna are great!!!

31/05/2026: Unfortunately we didn't get to eat the pizza, we arrived at 8:35pm only to be told it was too late to eat... they close at 10:30pm.

30/05/2026: Excellent restaurant with a wonderful sea view. Very fresh fish and excellent quality ingredients!

08/05/2026: Delicious and generous pizzas... excellent service...

21/04/2026: Best pizza around. Very friendly owners. Everything homemade. Large pizzas. Molto Bene. We'll gladly come again.

21/02/2026: Elegant atmosphere and very professional service. If you're looking for a Genoese aperitivo where you can grab a bite to eat after a drink, this isn't the ideal place, as they only serve a few dry snacks.
