I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Liguria

11/10/2025: Menu with limited choices, very long wait (and few customers to serve), like fifty minutes for a plate of trofie with pesto and spaghetti aglio e olio with tuna, which weren't even that good. The trofie were neither good nor bad; it was easy to eat more flavorful and tasty. The kamut spaghetti was actually spaghettini (and I hate spaghettini 🙈) and the tuna was raw (as a pairing, they didn't really fit in with my taste, but that's just personal preference). Anyway, they weren't very flavorful except for the excessive oil. I honestly don't recommend it.

05/09/2025: Everything was delicious: trofie, fish and fried pasta, and homemade desserts. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. We had a wonderful time!

15/08/2025: The location deserves a 5, but the gas station attendant next door might scare you! But once you walk in the door, it's a whole other world! Quality food, from appetizers to first courses, second courses, and even the very original, simple yet delicious desserts!

03/08/2025: An absolute delight. I don't understand the negative, bitter, and unfounded comments.

10/10/2025: We ate the excellent seafood paella for 2 people + a bottle of prosecco and 2 coffees, paid 65.00 euros.

29/09/2025: Terrible experience. Yesterday morning, around 11:40, we went to this bar to order the breakfast option. It's a shame that when we sat down, we were told that the option couldn't be ordered at that time. It's a shame that there were still people having breakfast near our tables. We were told that we had to order a la carte and pay for each item (smart ones). They didn't even offer yogurt. It's a shame that the menu doesn't mention a time for ordering the option. After pointing it out, we were told that if we'd wanted, they would have made us a menu anyway. On top of that, the pancakes, I assume, were pre-packaged and not even heated. I had asked for them to be without fruit, just with honey, but instead there was a banana in the middle... When we went to pay, we were told that given the mistake, they would give us a discount (which wasn't true because the bill was €12.40, which had already been checked using the QR code to pay at the table. SPOILER: €12.40 was €12.40 left). €6 pancakes, €1.50 coffee, €0.50 glass of water, €4.40 cappuccino. I don't see the discount, so adding insult to injury! Truly shameful, awful!

02/08/2025: Uno dei posti migliori di Genova. Il proprietario e lo staff sono fantastici e gentilissimi. Da consigliare. Akiko e Giuseppe da Sydney Australia.

30/07/2025: The staff are very attentive and friendly. The small square next to the restaurant is cozy and captures the charm of Genoa's historic center. The interior is very pleasant. The aperitif was excellent. I will definitely be back.

16/09/2025: The owner is extremely knowledgeable, helpful, present, and friendly. The staff is courteous and attentive. The dishes are meticulously prepared, with impeccable ingredients and the freshest fish. This is undoubtedly the best experience in Liguria so far, and absolutely not to be missed.

12/08/2025: Good food, reasonable prices, but the staff are missing a smile, which is a shame.

25/04/2025: Siamo stati a cena mangiando specialità di mare. Cibo ottimo e accoglienza impeccabile. Anche le nostre figlie celiache si sono sentite a casa. Consiglio vivamente a tutti i celiaci e non di provare questa esperienza. Complimenti davvero

22/04/2025: Da anni con mia moglie andiamo in questa locanda ogni volta che ci troviamo a San Terenzo. Anche domenica e lunedì scorsi siamo andati a gustare i loro “dieci assaggi di antipasti” e li abbiamo trovati sempre deliziosi. Poi abbiamo preso io gli spaghetti allo scoglio e lei i ravioli alle cicale di mare: ottimi! Il prezzo sempre onesto. Grazie per la vostra capacità e costanza nel tempo!

01/11/2025: We got a recommendation from the hotel and we were satisfied. Very good pizza and pasta, nice and fast service and normal prices, overall just a nice place for dinner.

24/10/2025: We ordered two calamaratas with shrimp and guanciale, probably reheated in the microwave, as the pasta was cold in some places and piping hot in others. There wasn't much fish, but much more guanciale. Ultimately, we ate the dish more out of hunger than anything else. The bill came to €53 for two calamaratas, a glass of white wine, a bottle of water, and a dessert: in my opinion, a bit excessive given the quality of the calamaratas. We didn't have the pizza, which might have been a better choice.

17/08/2025: The unexpected place you'd never expect when you first leave the port: excellent cuisine and a wide variety of options, superb service, original decor, and a perfect soundtrack. Highly recommended!

17/08/2025: Very kind people, excellent home cooking, a quaint restaurant with creative touches! A must-try (especially if you arrive by ferry, as it's right in front of the port). Excellent value!

15/10/2025: It's unfair that the Lavagna seafront should be disrupted by the interests of a "beach owner." The concession should not be renewed and a beauty that belongs to everyone should be restored to the local community and tourists.

24/09/2025: We visited at the end of September and sat alone on the terrace. We enjoyed a lunch menu starting at 12:30 p.m. with a magnificent view. Our large dog was welcome. The food was excellent, as was the service. We would be happy to return. However, the opening hours listed online are inconsistent, so it's advisable to check beforehand.

11/10/2025: I didn't stay, just had lunch. The food was good, but not too pretentious.

23/09/2025: Four of us arrived at closing time. They graciously offered us a table and we enjoyed exquisite dishes unlike anything we've ever had in Italy. The pasta... impressive, and the veal with boletus mushrooms... speechless. Elaborate desserts, good wine, and even better coffee. Congratulations to the owners and their lucky customers.

25/10/2025: The sea on a plate... There are no words... Everything perfect. I'll be back.

13/10/2025: A family evening, excellent service, not to mention the dishes, both in quality and quantity. The atmosphere is very welcoming, making you feel right at home. We were also satisfied with the price for what we ate. I recommend it for anyone who wants to eat fish.
