I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Genova

18/02/2026: Review from 8 years ago: I eat there very often, the food is delicious and the staff are friendly and polite. Review 2026: Since you revamped the menu, I've had a less satisfying experience than usual with the quality of the food... and I really miss the Zena sandwich. The new one called Genovese with mozzarella is pretty terrible. At least you could have used creamy stracchino if you don't use prescinseua anymore.

07/01/2026: Excellent sandwiches, extremely friendly staff

20/02/2026: Absolutely superb food, very friendly service. A very nice restaurant, not a tourist trap. Thank you so much!!!

29/01/2026: Located in a charming little square. The place is spacious but a bit cold. The food could be better, despite the very low prices. Service is average.

04/01/2026: Excellent homemade pasta, especially the gnocchi and fettuccine. The homemade desserts are also delicious. All in a welcoming atmosphere.

18/08/2025: We arrived at 1:30 PM and were refused service because the kitchen was already closed. It's a shame other people were coming in to eat...could the small dog be the problem? Anyway, it's not close to the highway as the reviews read. Not worth it.

08/03/2026: Everything was very good, especially the ravioli with nettles and walnuts, the rabbit in Ligurian style, the desserts, the frisceu, etc.

03/02/2026: Yesterday I went to this restaurant for lunch. The food was quite subpar and didn't live up to expectations, although I should have realized this as soon as I walked in since the room was empty. The main course was quite disappointing, and the service was inattentive. I could have overlooked it, but what ruined it all was the owner's extremely rude and impolite behavior. An experience not to be repeated.

23/11/2025: A pizzeria primarily for takeout, with a few tables as well. Small but welcoming, it makes good pizzas at average prices. Their special Invictus with pumpkin cream is truly amazing. The place is quiet, ideal for a quick pizza in good company without sacrificing quality. If it's a kid's birthday party, it quickly becomes a nightmare, but normally it has a simple feel. On a positive note: the manager is exceptionally kind and friendly. On a negative note: the bathroom has been the same since this place opened; a renovation wouldn't hurt, although I'm aware that for a pizzeria that primarily does takeout, it's just a plus. In conclusion, I've been here several times and will gladly return in the future. Hoping to please, I've included the pizza menu in the photos, which I couldn't find online.

14/09/2025: We came for dinner on September 2nd. We sat down at 9:00 PM, but at 10:00 PM, our pizza still hadn't been placed on the table. When we asked why the delay, the answer was that the staff had stood us up and one of them had gone to a concert, so they asked us if we wanted to leave. It's a shame that, since the kids were really hungry and it was already 10:00 PM, we stayed. I find this long wait truly embarrassing. I want to point out that the place was completely empty! The pizza wasn't very good and was dry. I will never go back!! A review from a week ago was completely identical in its response to the delay. Is this just another excuse you're using to cover up your disorganization? I'm disappointed!

24/10/2025: Excellent Italian restaurant with wonderful flavors and friendly service. The pasta was cooked perfectly, the flavors were authentic and the place was very warm and attentive. One of the best we have tried!

24/10/2025: A very cozy restaurant with exceptional service. Located right by the sea. I highly recommend the pesto lasagna and stuffed tortellini with walnut sauce. The pesto with any pasta is delicious.

26/12/2025: Unfortunately, I can only say... NOOOO Cold place in every sense of the word, mussel appetizer smelled awful, and the bill was sooooooo expensive!!!! Never again

26/09/2025: A simple, typically Italian trattoria where the local craftsmen take a long lunch break at lunchtime. It's simple, it's loud, and you're right in the middle of it all! The food is excellent (spaghetti aglio & olio and spaghetti vongole), prepared promptly by two people, which is also a good thing. The house wine is excellent; this is a place for simple, delicious food and drink.

14/10/2025: Great for business lunches, the food is excellent and you can even choose fresh meat to have cooked on the spot. A small criticism about the storage of the dishes; many times, especially the main courses, were not hot. A pass!

13/10/2025: I wanted to thank all the staff in the Pastry department for preparing a fantastic berry tart for my daughter's birthday! Well done guys!! Courtesy and trust! See you next time!

20/03/2026: Great place for breakfast, coffee, freshly squeezed juice and sweets, everything is top notch 🤌

19/03/2026: Charming staff, a selection of cakes that changes seasonally, and exquisite chocolates. The interior dates back to the original opening. Indoor and outdoor seating invites you to linger. A favorite spot in Genoa!

03/02/2026: Everything was good...the food and wine It felt like family. I had a great time.

24/12/2025: Excellent seafood, service n value you can taste the Ligurian Sea in the food

12/10/2025: Cheese focaccia made to order. It takes a wait, but it's always worth it.

02/09/2025: Focacceria offering a wide selection of traditional Ligurian sweet and savory delicacies. The classic Ligurian focaccia is delicious. The woman at the counter is very friendly, and the prices are fair.

16/02/2026: Terrible experience! We waited over an hour and twenty minutes, and the appetizer and first course were delivered very late, along with the second course! Overcooked mussels! We gave up on the second course and left!

15/02/2026: Bad dinner, we waited more than 1 hour for a plate of overcooked pasta with overcooked (dry) mussels, overcooked testaroli with pesto and with little pesto, mixed fried fish that was soft and had a disgusting taste, breaded and fried anchovies that had a terrible taste (hard, dry and not cleaned well) to be avoided.

13/01/2026: We came on New Year's Day and spent it in this very nice and welcoming place. The staff was extremely friendly and always available.

25/12/2025: On Christmas Day, we had lunch at this restaurant like every year. We waited almost two hours for our appetizer when the restaurant owner, Mr. Massimo, served us. We complained about the wait, but instead of apologizing, he told us that next year you can do it somewhere else! He's truly rude, so we definitely won't be setting foot there again! Absolutely not recommended.

29/08/2025: We went here with the family for pizza, and all the pizzas were incredibly delicious and large. We finished with a small Nutella pizza – which was a real highlight for the kids. Perfect for delivery or takeout :)

01/06/2025: Very good and well cooked pizza, friendly staff and clean place.
