I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Livorno

02/05/2026: After a wonderful day in Portoferraio, we stumbled upon this truly charming place while strolling. The first thing that made us smile was the little bowl outside for the dogs to drink: a simple gesture that speaks volumes about how attentive they are to everyone. We sat down and were immediately greeted with a super-detailed explanation of the menu. There's no printed version because they offer something new every day, and that's exactly the beauty: the waiter explains everything with passion (and you can even take a photo of it on the updated blackboard, if you like). On their recommendation, we ordered a mixed antipasto and... well, everything was truly delicious. The meatballs were incredibly delicate, delicious, and perfectly balanced; the stuffed mussels were surprising, with combinations we never would have imagined but were absolutely successful. But the real star was the tuna salad: simply out of this world! Marinated tuna with orange zest, basil, and other ingredients that create a spectacular mix of flavors. I dreamed about it last night! Next, we tried the tagliolini with spider crab and the tagliolini with anchovy sauce, both delicious and carefully prepared. Thank you so much for this experience! It's a shame we found out you're only open for dinner, otherwise we would have returned immediately for lunch before leaving. But one thing's for sure: when we return to Elba, this will be one of our first thoughts!

19/04/2026: Excellent discovery! Very good, unpretentious Italian cuisine, a wonderful welcome – it's perfect. I highly recommend it, don't miss it!! Go there with complete confidence.

02/06/2026: The desserts are true delicacies and the coffee is fantastic!

30/05/2026: Excellent pastry shop for breakfast and more. The brioches are delicious, the savory section a little less so, but I still recommend visiting this place.

01/05/2026: It's an excellent restaurant where I have dinner every day, but unfortunately, they don't have chicken, beef, or fresh fish dishes.

16/04/2026: The staff is very nice, sadly the food is underwhelming and overpriced

11/06/2026: Quintessentially Italian, divine👌

05/06/2026: We happened to be passing by and ate pizza there - very, very good.

02/06/2026: Pizza tour with friends. Appetizer with zonzelle and prosciutto. The pizza tour turned out to be decent quality, with only a few pizza varieties and not as much as you want. The place was full of mosquitoes, but especially bees. My friend got bitten. There are hives they won't remove. Never again.

27/05/2026: We ate a delicious pizza and tried a delicious fish first course. A great place to spend a nice evening with friends.

21/02/2026: I had lunch with my family at this restaurant... we had booked in advance, the staff were friendly, the only "flaw" was the service... a little slow, but overall we had a great time... they even gave us a table away so our big dog could sit comfortably without bothering anyone. Excellent value for money.

14/02/2026: The space is quite small but welcoming, and the staff was truly kind, helpful, and consistently polite throughout the service. Unfortunately, there were a few things that left me perplexed. The bathroom smelled bad, and the door didn't close properly, a detail that should be fixed as soon as possible. Even the fish, while cooked decently, didn't seem particularly fresh. Overall, the experience was mixed: the staff was very courteous, but there's room for improvement in the upkeep of the facilities and the quality of the ingredients.

14/03/2026: Perfect location for pre-post school emergencies, lovely friendly staff + welcoming environment + great opening hours are a certainty for a go-to and go-to again ☺️ spot. Recommend it also for tourists visiting the Saturday morning market: DO check it out!!!!

25/05/2026: Excellent pizza Highly digestible. The chickpea cake is excellent.

17/05/2026: Excellent cake, in my opinion, the best. The pan pizza is also excellent. It's a shame the dining room is small with tables very close together, but definitely recommended.

08/06/2026: Relaxed beach bar with a good selection of drinks (high-quality brands, Aperol currently €6.50) and also fast food like burgers and sandwiches. Either takeaway right there on the public beach or eat in at a table. A table reservation is definitely recommended for sunset. The burger was large, the burger meat was cooked to perfection and very juicy; I had the Burger Speciale with porchetta!

06/06/2026: Great food, great atmosphere and everyone is super friendly!

03/06/2026: We had lunch here and were very satisfied. Aurelia impresses with good, uncomplicated food at fair prices. The lunch menu offers a good selection and is ideal for a lunch break. The staff is friendly and attentive. The service is quick and efficient. The restaurant is clean and well-maintained. Anyone looking for uncomplicated, pleasant dining with reliable quality will find it here.

01/06/2026: a plate of roast beef with potatoes and a coffee €23, since they were closing it would have been nicer not to seat us than to treat us like that.

21/02/2026: Excellent food, generous portions, friendly and helpful staff, perfect for a stopover!

24/01/2026: A spartan restaurant where you serve yourself, taking a tray, in short self-service... with a first course, second course with side dish, water and coffee we are around €15... I would say that the price is the strong point of this restaurant, a wide choice of dishes, maybe the quality is not the best but all in all it's not bad.

07/06/2026: Well, what can I say, it was simply amazing!!!! The chef brings you a huge tomahawk steak, almost 1.2 kg, to look at, and then grills it to perfection. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 The appetizer was also an absolute delight!!! Keep it up and much respect 🥩🥩🥩🫶🫶🫶

01/06/2026: We had a truly excellent evening at Porkeria. Yes, the owner explains everything at the table, weighs the food at the table, and fast food is forbidden. All of that has already been described. The tomahawk steak was fantastic. But the good times didn't stop there. The Mattonella for dessert was incredibly delicious. But the coolest part came when we paid. The owner told us that he's actually a musician and spontaneously gave us a CD. He was incredibly kind, and the music is fantastic; we listened to it in the car on the way home. If you're looking for great food, friendly service, and good music with an 80s vibe and metal influences, go have dinner at Terence's Porkeria.

08/06/2026: Everything was amazing! I'll be back soon!!! The puff pastry pizzas were the best ever!

01/06/2026: We asked if we could order spritzes at the bar and were told we'd have to sit at a table. The waitress didn't bring menus, but we still ordered spritzes and a charcuterie board. The €10 price per spritz for the quality (good, but nothing special) and the €2 cover charge per person are excessive, considering they didn't even bring bread to accompany the charcuterie (the €13 charcuterie board). The waitress charged us immediately while we were drinking and, without asking, rounded up the bill—a truly distasteful thing. Unfortunately, we won't be returning.

29/05/2026: I stopped at Baracchina Rossa for an aperitivo, and I must say it was a pleasant discovery. Its location is one of its strong points: directly overlooking the sea, it offers one of the most beautiful views of the Livorno waterfront. I was lucky enough to be there at sunset, and the atmosphere was truly special. The sun slowly setting on the horizon, the reflections on the water, and the sea breeze made the moment even more enjoyable. These are the moments where it takes very little to feel good: a beautiful view, a drink, and time seemingly slowing down. The atmosphere is informal and relaxed, perfect for a break without too many pretensions but in a memorable setting. A place that left a lasting impression on me and one I would definitely consider for a future visit to Livorno. 🌅🌊🍹
