I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Genova

27/02/2026: I had lunch here a few weeks ago. A truly delightful discovery. I'm an incurable carnivore, and here I found an excellent variety of cured meats, delicious gnocchi with speck ragù, and truly tender and succulent donkey stew. Coincidentally, I'm also a fan of Pizzo truffles, and here I found a sort of smaller version, truly delicious but less "complex" (the original Pizzo truffle has a hard consistency and requires an unusual dessert-like time to consume). Highly recommended.

05/02/2026: Ok, you eat well and spend the right amount.

28/12/2025: Really good pizza, even though the place was full we didn't have to wait long, the waiters were top-notch and capable of handling large tables.

24/12/2025: The atmosphere, courtesy, and food were excellent. Congratulations, guys.

08/03/2026: Traditional trattoria Good food and a warm welcome, always crowded, a sign that the food is very popular.

16/01/2026: Excellent restaurant, great food, impeccable service

11/03/2026: I'm the top maury a great friend

09/03/2026: I found the place very welcoming and the staff very friendly and helpful. The food was very good, both fish and meat. The prices were reasonable. Recommended.

15/03/2026: Today, with my son, who had already been here for lunch, I took a wonderful trip out of town, discovering a gastronomic experience I was unfamiliar with. A quaint, small but very welcoming place, in an almost bucolic landscape that evokes the serene atmosphere of country life that is denied to us, urbanized city dwellers... Their donkey grazing on the grass is an image from another era... Combined with the pure air you breathe deeply, the kind and professional staff, and, above all, the fantastic cuisine and historic Ligurian dishes, for me, an octogenarian Genoese, it is a true pleasure that warms the heart. Well done guys! Best regards from Enrico of Via dei Platani

10/03/2026: Simple, clean, and welcoming atmosphere. The menu isn't extensive, but it offers some traditional Ligurian classics, including farinata, vegetable pies, brandacujun, sardeneira, trofie, and tagliatelle. Main courses include stockfish, braised beef, and desserts like panna cotta and tiramisu. Overall, the food is good and flavorful. Decent wines by the glass. Reasonable prices. In good weather, they also have outdoor seating on the lawn.

03/01/2026: A cozy and comfortable little place, slightly off the beaten path, with an intimate atmosphere that we truly appreciated. The service was impeccable, the owner is attentive and very kind, making you feel pampered, and this adds enormous value to the truly excellent food. I hope to return to the area and visit again!

14/12/2025: We returned for the second time with friends and once again we were satisfied. The place was quiet, the staff friendly, and the menu catered to all tastes, even those of two of our vegetarian friends. The food was excellent. I highly recommend it.

13/01/2026: Very kind staff, the food is really good at a fair price, the dining room is really nice and characteristic

06/01/2026: Very dissatisfied with the unfair treatment. Before Christmas, we booked dinner for sixteen people, agreeing, since we would be arriving late, to a set menu of their choice of appetizers, a main course, and a house dessert, for €25 per person. I don't want to comment on the welcome, because "friendliness" could be subjective (although "snorting" at everything seemed objectively rude to those present). Since we were celebrating a birthday and had brought a cake, we asked (in advance) if we could have a bottle for a toast instead of the house dessert. We were told no, that they only had champagne for €70. However, when they didn't even bring us the house dessert, we were told that the kitchen was closed, and we had our own cake anyway. And of course, the price was not discounted. Very unfair behavior, in our opinion.

03/03/2026: The pizza was delicious, juicy, crispy, and well-seasoned. The desserts were excellent. The staff was attentive and friendly. They put me in a good mood.

02/12/2025: Both the restaurant menu (with many delicious and carefully prepared daily specials) and the pizzeria menu (with excellent cheese focaccia and farinata) are excellent. The fresh pasta is homemade, and it shows! The desserts are excellent, and the service is friendly, attentive, and thoughtful. Highly recommended for any occasion!!! And then... the view and easy parking, just minutes from Chiavari!

05/03/2026: We went there for a birthday. The Recco focaccia was truly top-notch. The place is very well-kept and clean. The staff is polite, friendly, and helpful. I recommend it, especially because I don't think you'll find better focaccia anywhere else. The price is average for the location. Highly recommended!!!

01/03/2026: A guarantee, I've been coming here for practically forty years now; they've never missed a beat. A huge compliment to Augusto and his entire staff.

28/02/2026: Come on Genoa! Great weather, good beers. Probably the biggest and most important pub in Genoa.

28/01/2026: Excellent dishes, whether burgers, pizzas, or traditional dishes. Excellent service, friendly and helpful staff. The atmosphere is often noisy during games and sporting events, but you can attend without a surcharge. Excellent selection of beers, and one of the few places to find the "famous" Irish beer. Highly recommended. Just be aware that it can be a bit noisy during sporting events.

11/12/2025: ⸻ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review for Blanche Pizzeria I had an excellent experience at Blanche Pizzeria. The pizzas are truly outstanding — baked in a wood-fired oven, full of flavor, and incredibly light. I enjoyed them so much that I actually ate two, and none of them felt heavy at all. The quality of the ingredients and the way they prepare the dough really make a difference. The staff is very polite, friendly, and easy to communicate with. They make you feel welcome from the moment you walk in, and the service is fast, attentive, and warm. Because of this great experience, I’ve decided that during my entire stay this month, I’ll definitely be a regular customer. Blanche Pizzeria has earned all five stars — highly recommended!

30/11/2025: A lovely place, very informal yet welcoming. The staff is very friendly and the pizzas are very good.

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.

07/03/2026: A beautiful place in the heart of Genoa's alleys, where you can try excellent bruschetta, fresh cured meat platters, tartare, and a variety of cheeses. The options are extensive, and it's fun (as well as delicious) to try the most interesting and unusual pairings. The wine and beer selection is also extensive. The staff is very friendly and helpful; they even found us a table on a Friday evening even though we hadn't booked (which we recommend). The place is beautiful and has a rustic feel!

06/03/2026: Excellent bruschetta accompanied by the friendliness and courtesy of the staff!

23/02/2026: On Saturday evening, February 21st, after so many thoughts (the restaurant near my house never crosses my mind, who knows why...), I tried to make a reservation. It's always busy, but it's a bit late; maybe next time... but no! A cheerful, friendly female voice called back, telling me they still had a table for four. I took it right away, and I was right. A truly wonderful experience: the place is very quiet and intimate with nice, relaxing music. The cellar is well-stocked with a wide selection of wines. We tried a good Sardinian Vermentino and an excellent Pigato. The food, in no particular order: eggs from the shop, cod balls, squid ink ravioli filled with fish and seafood sauce, fillet with red wine sauce, stuffed guinea fowl, and finally, a sbrisolona and chocolate sphere. Everything was perfect! Great attention to food quality. It deserves the accolades it has received, and we'll be back. Finally, when it was time to pay the (adequate) bill, the "owner" of the telephone voice came out to say hello: well done, Sigrid! This friendly and brilliant thirty-year-old has a great future as a chef. Well done to her and her staff! We'll definitely see you again!

08/02/2026: Siamo stati a cena con mia moglie in this ristorante enoteca ubicato nel quarte genovese di Albaro vicino all’Arena Albaro Village piccolo cob diversi tavoli interni in due sale ed also all’aperto in a piccolo cortile con grandi piante. No, I don't have any wine but it's safe to say that it's the right point of the order: Antipasto: gnocchetti di calamaro Jerusalem artichoke and mandorle Secondi: ombrina e carciofi polpo arrosto carciofo fumè and crema all’aglio dolce Dessert: 2 lime sorbetti All veramente buono squisito porzioni non abbondanti ma justice. Personale dress in an elegant, friendly, competent, professional, cordial and available manner. During the dinner, the chef and owner Sigrid came to greet you very kindly, competent and professional. For as long as the restaurant is ready for customers, it's almost always the case that I'm waiting and quickly when the restaurant is ready for customers, it's too slow with a long wait specie to have the meal and the price taken care of for the excellent quality of the dishes. My wife and I had dinner at this restaurant and wine bar located in the Albaro district of Genoa, near the Albaro Village Arena. It's a small establishment, with a few tables inside, spread across two rooms, and an outdoor terrace adorned with large plants. We didn't order wine, but it's undoubtedly their strong point. We ordered: Starter: Squid gnocchi with Jerusalem artichoke and almonds Main Courses: Seared octopus with smoked artichoke and sweet garlic cream Dessert: Two lemon sorbets Everything was absolutely delicious, and the portions, neither too big nor too small, were perfect. The staff was elegantly dressed, welcoming, smiling, competent, professional, friendly, and helpful. During dinner, the chef and owner, Sigrid, came to greet us. She was very young, affable, smiling, competent, and professional. As for the service, initially, when we were almost alone, it was attentive and quick, but later, as the restaurant filled up, it became too slow, with long waits, especially for the bill and a fair price considering the excellent quality of the food. My wife and I had dinner at this restaurant and wine bar located in the Albaro neighborhood of Genoa, near the Albaro Village Arena. It's small, with several tables inside in two rooms and also outside in a small courtyard with large plants. We didn't drink wine, but it's certainly their strong point, and we ordered: Appetizer: Squid gnocchi, Jerusalem artichoke, and almonds Main courses: Underwater octopus, smoked artichoke, and sweet garlic cream Dessert: Two lemon sorbets Everything was truly delicious, and the portions weren't large, but just right. The staff were elegantly dressed, welcoming, smiling, competent, professional, friendly, and helpful. During dinner, the chef and owner, Sigrid, came out to greet us. She was very young, affable, smiling, competent, and professional. As for the service, at the beginning when we were almost alone it was attentive and fast but then when the restaurant filled up with customers it became too slow with long waits especially to get the bill to pay and the right price for the excellent quality of the dishes.

15/03/2026: Words can’t describe how good it is. Best pasta dish I’ve ever had. Service was 100%. A must visit!!

12/03/2026: The food was very good (though not super generous portions). But what shocked us most was the €14 glass of red wine. The staff were dishonest in not telling us the price and that we paid for the bottle because they didn't sell it by the glass. In short, the food was good, but this restaurant's honesty needs improvement.
