I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Imperia

07/07/2025: Amazing food. Very kind and friendly owners. We went to the restaurant from Taggia few kms, but was it worth it. The restaurant has very good free atmospehere. A+++++

04/07/2025: The tuna steak was absolutely delicious! I recommend this restaurant.

29/07/2025: We had such a nice dinner here the 12th of July, and the people that work at Locanda were very welcoming and friendly.

22/07/2025: I was at Locanda Marinai a few nights ago and I was amazed. It is one of those places that stays in your heart. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted by Alessandra, the dining room manager, super kind, smiling and always present. She gave us passionate advice, as if we were guests in her home. I started with mussels alla marinara.. delicious! Then I moved on to spaghetti with clams and then finished with a panna cotta that left me speechless. But beyond the food, what makes this place special is the atmosphere, Bordighera Alta in the evening is a dream.

04/08/2025: We discovered this restaurant almost by chance and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the pizzas: thin crust, perfectly cooked, generous toppings—a real treat! All at an excellent value for money, which is increasingly rare. The service was fast and efficient, despite a busy dining room. The staff is professional, without being intrusive, which makes for a great time. The only downside: the background music was way too loud. A softer ambiance, with traditional Italian or jazzy music, would have been more than enough to create a more pleasant atmosphere. In summary: an excellent place to eat a good pizza at a reasonable price. We'll happily return—perhaps with earplugs if the playlist stays the same 😉

02/08/2025: We ate well, the price was appropriate for the time and quality of the food.

06/07/2025: Good morning, I do not agree with some reviews read even very negative, the pizza Excellent as the service and the friendliness ... it is true that the place is located below street level but it is welcoming and very pleasant even if a little narrow ... I do not agree with those who wrote that there is no air circulation, the place is air conditioned and we were fine. Last note: after 8.00 pm last night there was a queue in the street to get in 😏 ... I recommend !!!

29/06/2025: Burnt focaccia..and that's already bad!!!! It's useless to give the 3 euro discount, it's terrible, in fact the little bit of not burnt that I ate was not well leavened dough! I make pizzas..and believe me that 24 hours of leavening make the difference!

19/07/2025: Very nice restaurant. Excellent service and good advice. The waitress was knowledgeable about gluten intolerance and was able to recommend gluten-free dishes. The menu features many regional specialties, such as snails and rabbit. The mashed potatoes were superbly seasoned (with pesto?), and I'll order it again next time. The beef was very tender and delicious.

15/07/2025: Great location, fantastic setting, excellent and very attentive service. The food quality is top-notch. We'd gladly return.

18/07/2025: Grazie per l’accoglienza ,ci siamo sentiti coccolati, ottimo cibo accompagnato da eccellenti vini in un ambiente raffinato ,personale gentilissimo e molto attento ,grazie veramente Vincenzo

07/06/2025: Ho cenato con un amico in questo elegante ristorante. Cibo ottimo, curato e con materie prime di qualità. Ottima la cantina che propone vini del posto davvero gradevoli. Prezzi decisamente buoni rapportati alla qualità, alla cura degli stessi e all' eleganza del locale. Gentilissimo il proprietario. Bravi, tornerò. Ristorante consigliato

20/08/2025: Ordered: Buffalo tomatoes Received An unripe tomato cut into quarters with a scoop of buffalo tomatoes. No olive oil. No basil. The dish that must have cost them 1 euro. Sold: 16 euros

20/08/2025: There were 8 of us in this restaurant which seemed okay to us according to the reviews. What a disappointment!!! A very nice waiter, however, half an hour of waiting for a "burata" dish with 1 tomato cut into four and a ball of Burata taken out of the bag and placed on the tomatoes without seasoning, a Milanese escalope arrived 10mm later while everyone was served and without presentation, without lemon etc.. inedible gnocchi etc... Apart from the Sicilian tuna which was okay. Very disappointed despite a picturesque setting and correct reviews. To top it all off, a hefty bill with a mini scoop of lemon ice cream at €7.50 and the bourata at €16, scandalous.

17/08/2025: Excellent food, not to mention the staff for their professionalism and kindness. The owners' friendliness is perfect. Beautiful evening! Silvana and Paolo Dassetto.

10/08/2025: Very good Italian restaurant for fish,

06/08/2025: I'm in love with Imperia. Like every year, almost like a ritual, I have to go to Lanterna Blu to relive the same experience that has been with me since I was a child. La Lanterna Blu isn't just a restaurant; it's the symbol of this beautiful province. It's a magical place characterized by an elegant, distinguished, clean, and comfortable setting. Max makes you feel right at home, from the moment you greet him to when you leave. But let's move on to the dishes. What can I say? They're in keeping with the location and could sum it all up in one word: "Quality." The catch of the day I ate was sublime; the ingredients were fresh and served with care and elegance, the attention to the customer and their needs was attentive, and the wine list was vast. All these qualities should be taken for granted, but unfortunately, these days, they're not easy to find in the restaurant world. In short, maybe it's just me who has a soft spot for this place, but it's definitely a place worth visiting if you're in the area. See you soon, Max.

30/06/2025: For my birthday party, a great welcome, excellent dishes, impeccable service, all in delicacy, the excellent wines were also included in the price of the menu, a magnificent setting, everything contributed to making this evening a magical moment! Thank you for this beautiful evening

21/08/2025: Pasta with clams was incredibly salty, a Moretti beer cost €6, a can of Coca-Cola €3.50! I don't understand where they're trying to get at with these absurd prices for drinks! Who knows!

21/08/2025: Good pizza, fast and friendly service. We'll be back!

19/08/2025: I've been frequenting this osteria in Ventimiglia for years, and each time it surprises me with the same reassuring quality. It's one of those rare places where you immediately feel at home, thanks to an authentic, warm, and relaxed atmosphere, where time seems to slow down. The real star, however, is the spaghetti allo scoglio. A dish that might seem unpredictable elsewhere, here is an absolute certainty: fragrant, balanced, rich in flavor and seafood. The pasta is always al dente, the sauce enveloping, with the freshest seafood that expresses all the generosity of the Mediterranean. It's the classic dish I order every time, and every time it reminds me why I keep coming back. The courtesy of the service is another reason why this osteria deserves all its stars. The staff is always smiling, attentive but never intrusive, ready to offer expert and helpful advice. You can sense a genuine passion for hospitality, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. In a world of copycat restaurants, this place remains a staple, a haven for those seeking authentic cuisine and a sincere welcome. Highly recommended for those who love good food and simplicity done well.

17/08/2025: This is my second time eating here, and I've had a great experience. The table service and speed of delivery are a bit lacking, but the quality is good. Prices are average. One bonus is that you can eat indoors in the air conditioning, which is a plus on hot days, given that there are often no cool places in the area.

07/06/2025: Excellent place where you eat a lot and well. The kindness of the owners and the convivial atmosphere will make you feel at home. Little advice: if you go for dinner, have a very light lunch because the menu is very rich as well as the portions and since everything is very good it is a shame not to be able to taste all the courses.

06/06/2025: An incredible and delicious experience! Both in terms of the food, the service and the general atmosphere of the place. The meal is very long, a little too long for our taste because we spent almost 4 hours at the table, asking at the end to speed up the pace a little and skipping dishes. We will definitely come back! It was perfect! Thank you very much ❤️

20/08/2025: A little place by the sea, delicious dishes, and very kind and helpful staff, if you pass by it is worth it

20/08/2025: We stopped by chance but were pleasantly satisfied! We stayed in Sanremo for 3 days and booked for all three nights - the food and service were excellent 👍

10/08/2025: Everything was simply top-notch. Excellent food and service that, unfortunately, isn't found everywhere else in Italy. The best restaurant of our entire vacation in Liguria.

09/08/2025: The restaurant serves pretty good Italian cuisine, with fresh pasta and pleasant flavors. The atmosphere is friendly and the service is decent, if a little slow at times. On the other hand, the prices are really excessive for what's served: the portions are modest and the bill mounts up quickly. A decent experience overall, but the value for money leaves something to be desired.

10/08/2025: We chose this restaurant to celebrate my husband's birthday, and we couldn't have made a better choice! 🎉 The atmosphere was welcoming and elegant, the staff extremely kind, welcoming, and attentive to every detail. The food was simply delicious: carefully prepared dishes, fresh ingredients, and balanced flavors. See you soon!

10/08/2025: Nice and welcoming restaurant with top people, eating was a spectacle.
