I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in La spezia

03/12/2025: Yet another change of management, little choice, normal pizza. We are constantly going downhill.

06/11/2025: The gluten-free pizzas are excellent. They also offer delicious pizzas.

13/09/2025: Very good pizzas!! And cheap, I recommend them!

05/09/2025: One of the Best pizza in my life :)

25/03/2026: I took two guests for a mussel lunch, but their expectations were completely dashed. The spaghetti with mussels was disjointed: a simple garlic and oil pasta with shells on top, lacking any consistency or seafood flavor. The stuffed mussels, however, were unbalanced: the flavor of the mortadella and stale bread completely overpowered that of the molluscs. The icing on the cake was the owner's lack of professionalism, who even dared to comment on a stain on the tablecloth. The price was decidedly excessive for the quality. Highly not recommended.

18/03/2026: Unfortunately, my experience at this restaurant was decidedly negative. The staff was unfriendly and unwelcoming, creating an unpleasant atmosphere right from the start. As for the food, the mussels were truly disappointing: very small and with an unpleasant odor that left one wondering about their freshness. The overall quality wasn't up to expectations, and one suspects they might have been cheaply sourced, perhaps even from abroad. Overall, an experience I wouldn't recommend and am unlikely to repeat.

30/03/2026: Everything was perfect. I had an Aperol Spritz (well made). The appetizers were very good. The girl who served me was very kind...all at a very fair price (and that's not always the case!)

25/05/2026: Hotel with excellent value for money. Attentive and polite staff. Very good breakfast. We stayed in a very spacious room with a beautiful sea view and a large balcony. I recommend this hotel.

18/05/2026: Nice location, it's a shame the staff didn't speak a word of French at breakfast 😞

14/03/2026: Very quaint place, very helpful staff, excellent food, top tripe!!! Not to mention their chips, rice, and chicken curry, all delicious.

07/02/2026: Great food and impeccable service. Amazing fries!!!

01/05/2026: We chose this restaurant primarily because it's billed as a go-to place for gluten-free options. My partner is celiac, so it wasn't just a touristy detail, but a genuine dietary necessity. The meal started out well on paper: simple dishes, pasta listed as gluten-free, and a setting that promised a good experience. Unfortunately, the whole thing quickly lost its charm. The welcome was cold, the service rather clumsy, and the waiter ended up creating a frankly uncomfortable atmosphere during the meal, without us really understanding why. The most surprising thing was the dessert. For a restaurant that emphasizes gluten-free so much, finding out there were no gluten-free desserts available was quite surprising. The answer was firm: there would be no other option. For a place that's supposed to specialize in this area, it's a bit like going to an ice cream shop that's sold out. Another unpleasant point: the bill. When it came time to pay, the bill was presented to us in a rather sketchy manner, with the prices handwritten and a quick sum added up in front of us, arriving at a total announced as €71. However, considering the prices displayed and what we had consumed—two bottles of water for €3, a bottle of wine for €12, two dishes for €10 and €12, a rum baba for €7, and a limoncello—this amount seemed difficult to comprehend. Even including the limoncello, the difference is still striking. The general atmosphere was also quite peculiar: a child was watching videos, running around the dining room, and apparently entering the kitchen, without seeming to disturb anyone. This gave the impression of eating in a makeshift place rather than in a restaurant attentive to its customers. In the end, we had the feeling that tourists were greeted with more enthusiasm at checkout than during service. A real disappointment, especially for a place that claims to specialize in gluten-free products. We will not return and we do not recommend this restaurant, especially to celiacs looking for a truly reassuring experience.

12/04/2026: From the photos, the portions looked generous. We ordered a mixed grill of fish, but unfortunately we were only served three prawns (not particularly tasty) and a small piece of fish. In my opinion, and based on my experience at other restaurants, a mixed grill shouldn't be presented like this. The second course, fish all'isolana, was also truly poor: very little fish, soaked in too much oil, so much so that I couldn't eat the potatoes, and accompanied by a very small portion of grilled vegetables. All for a total of 62 euros. We left the restaurant still hungry and had to eat elsewhere. Highly not recommended. A disappointment!!!!!!!!!!

13/06/2026: Excellent food and superb service! We've eaten here three times now, and each time we've been impressed by the individual dishes and the attentiveness of the staff. The price-performance ratio is excellent.

09/06/2026: There are two vegan pasta options. The spicy one was tasty, the other rather bland. Portions were small and the pasta was still quite hard. The service was inattentive and not very friendly.

13/05/2026: The pizza was delicious. The waiter was very attentive and helpful. The place is very simple, it's a pizzeria.

21/04/2026: Best food I’ve had in Italy, this pizza is perfect! Service was friendly and patient with my language barrier, and the pizzas came out lightning fast.

08/04/2026: At 2:44 PM I went to the piadina shop on Via Prione and ordered a roll of Mediterranean piadina. The clerk told me it was no longer available, even though it was on the menu. So I reordered another roll with ham, mozzarella, and lettuce, as stated on the receipt. Instead, the roll arrived, fine, but with lettuce and mushrooms inside instead. If I was allergic, I didn't know who to tell. It's not the first time; the same clerk has spoken rudely to me, first confusing the piadina with the roll, and then rudely turning on the customers, who were often crowded.

09/03/2026: The piadinas were pretty good, but the wait and service were terrible! The cashier who served me was really rude and you could tell she didn't want to work!

17/12/2025: Friendly and welcoming Excellent food Special wines

16/11/2025: Appalling service. A disreputable crowd. Avoid at all costs...

11/03/2026: Very nice and welcoming place, but the cashier accused me of smoking the previous time when I hadn't, insisting as if I was in the wrong and without even apologizing, making me feel uncomfortable. I say, if you want to accuse me, at least go look at the cameras to confirm... otherwise, a good place, I recommend it.

07/06/2026: It was a wonderful experience for a first communion. The venue's strong point was undoubtedly the staff: the waiters were excellent, professional, and incredibly courteous and kind to everyone present, making us feel immediately at ease. The food was exceptional. Highly recommended for celebrating events!

01/06/2026: Excellent food, delicious meat and pizza. Attentive and friendly service. Always a fun and cheerful atmosphere with karaoke night. Second time here, and "all good things come in threes!"

09/11/2025: Excellent value for money. The tomato juice is simply superb.

26/09/2025: The best bar in the municipality, table service, good coffee, and always fresh pastries, sandwiches, paninis, and pizzas.

29/05/2026: A truly wonderful discovery! 🤩 A super friendly atmosphere, a helpful and generous owner. Unbeatable value for money! We highly recommend it!

19/05/2026: Music bumping Got a beer + chips + water (not diner time 6PM) Went to go pay and held up the amount of money I owed on his figures Good laugh haha
