I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Livorno

06/09/2025: Beautiful beach and sea. Excellent services at a fair price.

03/09/2025: Not recommended. We were at the beach today, September 3rd, and wanted to rent an umbrella for the afternoon (including two loungers). Firstly, there was no afternoon rate (we arrived at 2 p.m.), and the "supervisor" wanted a €25 daily fee for the umbrella (it's now off-season). At the beautiful Morcone beach next door, the umbrella costs €15! Then I paid with Visa, and we had small beach chairs for our two kids, which we weren't allowed to use. Then I wanted to cancel, and strangely enough, cancellation isn't possible with credit card payments. Conclusion: worst service on the entire island, too expensive, umbrellas packed too tightly, constantly being checked... Better to choose a different beach (next door) or even a different beach. A huge disappointment for us, and the first and last time.

03/10/2025: Great! You can find it here even if you are staying at the beach and it's great. I definitely recommend trying it.

02/09/2025: We had an aperitif with a platter that included four different tastings, including very tender cuttlefish and squid. The tiramisu was decent, and the staff were friendly. Today, the tables under the trees were really nice.

13/10/2025: I stopped by to try the wine and bought 5 liters of white.

01/10/2025: We arrived at Cantina Elbana at 6:30 p.m. and were able to get a table right away. The waiter was initially a bit surprised by our early arrival, but he was very friendly and spoke some German, so communication was easy. The ambiance is typically Italian: cozy, with good music and an open kitchen behind the bar – very authentic. The menu isn't extensive, but it's excellently curated. For starters, we had a cold seafood platter – highly recommended and perfectly portioned. For the main course, we had spaghetti uova di riccio di mare (fantastic, slightly spicy, and perfectly seasoned), ragu di pesce spada (excellent), and paccheri cacciuccatti for our son. A particularly positive aspect: the waiter suggested a half portion, which was still generous, but delicious! Since the portions aren't overly large, there was room for dessert. Unfortunately, three of the seven desserts were unavailable, but the cheesecake with jam and the chocolate cake with cream were delightful. The only minor drawback: While we were eating, the kitchen was washing up, and a strong-smelling cleaning agent was used for a short time, which somewhat spoiled the experience. In summary: Fantastic food, authentic ambiance, and friendly service – we left very satisfied and full. Highly recommended!

27/10/2025: Perfect atmosphere, quiet and peaceful, with the sound of the sea as your companion. Very welcoming, friendly and approachable staff and chef. Excellent and refined cuisine. An elegant yet casual restaurant. Reasonable prices for the unique cuisine and for dining with your feet in the sand while enjoying the sea.

31/08/2025: The only "easy" and youthful place in Marciana Marina. Excellent aperitif and music. Guido, a great host, always available.

29/09/2025: Both the pizza and the peppered mussels were really good, the amberjack was fantastic...

20/09/2025: The food was delicious, and the staff was super friendly. Unfortunately, the service was completely understaffed and overwhelmed. But the food was very good.

20/10/2025: The bar and restaurant is a historic establishment on the island, family-run. The atmosphere is simple, a bit dated, as is the service. However, the dishes are exquisite: excellent, fresh fish, well-prepared, and the side dishes are also excellent. The wine list doesn't feature inexpensive items, aside from the house wine, but there are also exquisite island wines served by the glass, which allowed us to keep our spending down a bit. The prices are average: quite high, but, as we all know, fresh fish is expensive, and everything on the islands is inevitably more expensive.

18/10/2025: It's located near the main square in town. The restaurant is simple, and the indoor terrace is open during this time of year, while in the summer there's also an outdoor one. The cuisine, primarily seafood, is simple but carefully selected. The wine list is unique in offering island wines that aren't always easy to find. We tasted both glasses of rosé, with a touch of Aleatico, and the fragrant Vermentino. For starters, we had excellent maniche with octopus sauce, followed by the freshest grilled and Sicilian-style swordfish. The side dish of roasted peppers (peeled, well-seasoned, and delicious) was excellent. Lemon sorbet was served to finish. The service was impeccable, and the owners were very helpful, and we even had a friendly conversation after dinner. We were tempted by the super-fresh swordfish, but many told us the fried fish is also a real specialty: maybe next time. (Price, including glasses of wine, €120 for two). Recommended, see you next time.

03/02/2026: My partner and I booked a table here for one evening during our stay on Elba Island in June 2023. I'll start by saying we don't know what the restaurant is like inside, as we dined on the covered veranda overlooking the sea, which was very pretty. The staff was friendly, but not at all professional or knowledgeable. The service was clumsy and bordering on ridiculous. We ordered two plates of seafood linguine; the pasta was overcooked, and the fish was visibly frozen (which I couldn't understand, given that Rio Marina is located by the sea and Elba offers a wide variety of fresh seafood everywhere). Everything was way too salty, wallowing in the watery sauce. The bottle of wine we ordered wasn't available, so we relied on the waitress. The wine was good. The fried fish was extremely salty and overcooked; we had to leave it because it was inedible. We finished with two terrible coffees, but they didn't ruin the dinner we'd just finished. The bill arrived, if possible, more expensive than the dishes listed above. A real disaster. I never write negative reviews, but that dinner ruined the rest of the evening, and we were annoyed that, even though we hadn't eaten anything, no one bothered to ask what the problem was. I don't recommend it.

05/01/2026: An excellent restaurant with truly delicious off-menu options, chosen according to the season.

20/01/2026: The food was delicious; we had pasta with seafood and tortellini with wild boar ragout. Everything tasted great—but the pasta came with Parmesan cheese from a bag that was just sitting on the plate—and this was in Italy! Absolutely unacceptable! The staff was friendly and helpful.

04/10/2025: The rooms were very dirty, and we were left without water for 5 hours. All the rooms didn't meet our expectations. The owner was very rude, demanding cash upon arrival before showing us the rooms. There were 13 of us, including our motorcycles.

29/12/2025: Extremely long wait for two first courses and two fish sandwiches. Overcooked, dry, and flavorless seafood spaghetti. Average sandwiches, good but poorly prepared toppings. The kitchen was already closed at 1 PM, with five people seated inside and outside. OH...

08/12/2025: We had a mixed fried fish and spaghetti allo scoglio for lunch. Everything was delicious, we were very satisfied. The fish sandwiches also looked very interesting; we'll definitely be back.

16/09/2025: Friendly & lovely staff, multilingual, tasty breakfast, fresh vegetables, pool nice, room clean, 24/7 reception, 5 min stroll to the beach & restaurants, bike rental, family business

09/09/2025: The property is very beautiful and well-maintained... There's a swimming pool inside where you can relax. Both the owners and the entire staff are qualified and professional, always kind, welcoming, helpful, and approachable... The owners are truly lovely!!! The rooms and the property are excellently clean... The breakfast is a buffet, with a wide selection of delicious sweet and savory products. The breakfast is delicious and plentiful. The location is very convenient, just a 5-minute walk from the public beach and the lidos. I recommend everyone to try this hotel... We'll definitely be back.

08/10/2025: This is the second time I've been to this hotel in Quercianella. I have to say that the lady who runs it is very kind. The rooms aren't that big but they are comfortable and the breakfast is very good.

22/09/2025: A simple, clean place without too much pomp, just a ten-minute walk from the public beach and well-equipped restrooms. We had a wonderful three-night stay despite the nearby train station. The food was excellent, and the owner was incredibly friendly.

12/10/2025: again and again… super great restaurant and hotel ♥️

10/10/2025: The price for what you got is too expensive if you see what you get it is not even close to what you get on a one to ten basis I would say a two maximum!! I am disappointed!!

30/07/2025: Friends recommended this place to me, but I was disappointed, first by the wine selection on the menu, then by the generally unhelpful and unfriendly service. I'm sorry, and I've told friends about this, directing them to other good places in the area. It's a shame they almost lost customers.

20/09/2025: Wonderful. A little pricey, but the staff is really friendly and the food is fresh and excellent. Recommended.

16/09/2025: A very nice restaurant with a wonderful atmosphere right by the sea. The staff is attentive and friendly. The food is absolutely top-notch.
