I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Liguria

21/10/2025: In the heart of Alassio, amidst the scent of the sea and the warm light of the Riviera, Sail Inn stands out as one of Liguria's most authentic and refined gastronomic experiences. It's more than just a restaurant: it's a reference point for those seeking cuisine that combines tradition, elegance, and authentic flavors. At the helm is Giampiero Colli, chef and owner, a charismatic and passionate figure who has given the restaurant an unmistakable touch. His cuisine speaks of the sea, the seasons, and raw ingredients: the freshest fish, local ingredients, and a sensitivity that transforms each dish into a story... a journey. Each course is a balance between simplicity and technique, between tradition and innovation. From raw to cooked, nothing is left to chance: every detail reflects the experience and dedication of a chef who lives his craft with genuine passion. The service is attentive and never intrusive, the atmosphere elegant and relaxed, perfect for those who want to savor the true essence of the Mediterranean. Sail Inn is much more than a restaurant: it's a journey through the flavors of Alassio, expertly guided by a man who has made quality and hospitality a true art form... Thank you, Chef Giampiero Mattia

15/10/2025: Greed at the expense of service quality The restaurant is very famous, pseudo-elegant, and expensive, but people likely continue to frequent it for some reason related to the quality of the food. Unfortunately, the owner's desire to never lose a single customer and to always keep tables full with at least two seats per evening completely negates any positive aspects of the culinary quality, replacing them with total disorganization and a lack of respect for the customers. We had a reservation for four people at 9:30 PM and arrived promptly. When we arrived, the waiter asked us to be patient for about five minutes because they were "slightly struggling." We waited 15 minutes and noticed at least a dozen groups in the alley outside who, like us, had reservations but were still waiting for their tables. When we asked the waiter again how much longer we would have to stand, he replied, visibly out of breath, that it would be about another 15 minutes. This meant we'd start eating at 10:00 PM. We would have preferred to leave, but we decided to wait. Very calmly, every now and then someone from the small groups waiting managed to sit down. After the customary 15 minutes, it was 10:00 PM: none of us were still seated. Inside the restaurant, a few people were eating while 70% of the customers were waiting to be served. We waited another 20 minutes—arriving at 10:20 PM—without anyone leaving their tables. Many customers continued to wait for their dishes. At that point, we decided to leave at 10:30 PM, after an hour of pointless waiting. If a restaurant that claims to be elegant and high-end doesn't have the courage to inform customers that they must vacate their tables by a set time—which is in any case unbecoming of the style of a place of this kind—then it shouldn't accept any more reservations. To the owner, I say: since you're not worried about the risk of empty tables due to selfishness and greed, simply not accepting any more reservations would do your reputation much more credit. I'll conclude by reminding you that I used to frequent this restaurant about thirty years ago, but I stopped going because there were already unpleasant service issues back then that kept me away from there ever since.

07/12/2025: Terrible experience. First of all, there's no list of allergens or whether the products are fresh or not. The platters with clams were completely tasteless. My plate had a maximum of 12 clams. One would expect fried fish with more ingredients. No, just shrimp tails and the usual squid. Absurd value for money. And I swear my parents have always had restaurants. So two tagliolini with clams and a fried fish that tasted very little like fish. 1/2 cup wine and water €56.

23/11/2025: For us, it's a point of reference when we come to Liguria. The atmosphere is close and familiar. Mrs. Ilaria is always very kind, it feels like being at home. Traditional dishes, very digestible. Even the carafe wine is good.

05/12/2025: The best lobster pasta I’ve had in my life and I had a lot of pasta. Music is one thing I would change but everything else is top notch 👌

23/11/2025: Every time it's a pleasure. Friendly, reliable, top-notch food, excellent service. What can I say? Excellent!

22/10/2025: Cool villa hotel. Very nice, especially in the evening for a bottle of good wine. The rooms are simple but functional. Centrally located and convenient. We'd love to come back. Viva Lavagna!

14/10/2025: It's a beautiful place, beautifully decorated with taste and discretion. The welcome is warm and attentive. Ideally located; 5 minutes from the highway and a 10-minute walk from the old town center and the beaches. The rooms are comfortable and spacious. The high ceilings make you feel like you're sleeping in a palace. This place is highly recommended and worth a visit. A pleasure. Thank you.

03/10/2025: Great pizza, crispy baked, super toppings, and absolutely delicious. Even the crust tastes good. I'm deducting one star for the service; the waiter jumps over to clear the plate as soon as one of the two people has finished eating 👎. I find that unpleasant; they clear the plates even after the second customer has finished eating. Despite this faux pas, I can still recommend the pizzeria.

30/09/2025: I highly recommend this restaurant. The service was very friendly and spoke a little German, so ordering was easy. I ordered swordfish and a freshly cut tomahawk steak. Freshly grilled, they were delicious.

29/11/2025: Mauro is a great lover of quality music, and he shares his love for food and good wine. More places like this would make Liguria a truly beautiful place!

20/11/2025: Nice burgers and potatoes, quick service and nice staff! Plus afterbike tapas!

20/10/2025: Nice place, even if a little hidden, super service, excellent value for money.

09/10/2025: An oasis of taste and hospitality in an unexpected setting, considering its location in an industrial area. Just when you think you've taken the wrong turn, you're practically there. Highly recommended for movie nights, too, as it's just steps from the Multiplex.

07/10/2025: The food we ate from shrimp, squid, potatoes, grilled vegetables to salad was very tasty and good, the granny's cake with cream and pine nuts was excellent (I'm sorry I didn't ask for the recipe so I could try to make that perfection 😉), the Domine wine in the bottle was excellent, for the waitress 🌹 who welcomed us and served us all the praise, the service was fast, we didn't wait long for the food. My partner and I are very satisfied and we will take a nice memory to Rovinj, Istria, Croatia. Whoever comes to Levanto should visit this restaurant, thank you for the good food and a pleasant dinner.

17/09/2025: The ceviche & lasagna bolognese were fabulous & the rabbit ravioli & ribs were amazing. The service was very good & the restaurant was fairly quiet

26/10/2025: I had dinner with my wife. The ravioli with meat sauce were the best I've ever eaten. The panigacci were also excellent, and the cured meats, the tagliata, were sublime. I'd also like to add a positive note for the staff, always present and kind. I highly recommend it!!

12/10/2025: We tried the restaurant: The best ravioli in the entire province

02/11/2025: Luckily, we had a jazz show coming up. We ordered a glass of wine and draft beer (they no longer had it), so we ordered a "craft" beer (which costs more). They brought us a panache and a Mongozo... (There were only 4 tables). And they took the order first from a couple who arrived later. We had the panache exchanged for the glass of wine. But the Mongozo isn't craft, the glass for both was VERY dirty, and the fries that arrived 10 minutes later were nasty. Welcoming on Halloween.

07/10/2025: I love you, Amelka💙❤💚 Very nice service, and despite a mistake with the order, everything was fine, really nice place.

13/09/2025: Excellent place if you’re looking for peace and a break from the city. Delicious breakfast (included) and dinner (€30 per person) made from local products. Breakfast and dinner are available only for guests. They also have a ropes park and offer lunch for non-guests.

09/09/2025: Simply: it felt like home! ❤️ We spent days of pure relaxation and felt pampered and welcome. We ate, drank, and slept divinely! Bob is a loyal four-legged friend who quickly makes friends with everyone. Thanks to Nereo, Lucia, and their children. We were lucky to discover the Giandriale farmhouse! ❤️

30/09/2025: Wonderful drinks and an amazing owner's dog keeping company to the guests outside

03/09/2025: I was there the day before yesterday night waiting for my train at 4 am so I went to the bar the guy working there was very kind and the service was great

26/10/2025: We were on a 4-day trip to Jesolo, we found the restaurant by chance, but we knew from the first day that we would have dinner here every night 😊 The kindness and friendliness of the lady in charge was exactly what you expect when you visit an Italian restaurant. The next day she got to know us 😊😅 After a warm welcome, she escorted us to our table 😊 By then, a young waitress was also working, who was also very kind and a professional server!!! (I think this is quite rare these days). We had dinner here 3 nights, all three times we had perfect, delicious food, pizza was always among the dishes we chose 😁 I recommend it to everyone who, in addition to delicious food, also values ​​a warm, friendly welcome and service 😊

25/10/2025: The restaurant is always a favorite because of the service and the food. Smiling, kind staff. Great Italian flavors.
