I migliori ristoranti in Liguria

20/07/2025: Excellent dishes (even if the starters are sometimes a bit "poor".) We've been there several times. The last time was due to a mix-up with the main course (tagliata), but the lady was truly exemplary. Congratulations!

17/07/2025: I specifically asked for the steak cooked very rare, something made me think I should specify and exaggerate how I wanted it cooked. AND IN FACT!!, it arrived overcooked. We ordered two fish appetizers, and the waitress didn't even know they were on the menu. I was shocked by the service, and I looked around, thinking I was seeing the cameras, as if it were a joke, but unfortunately it was all real. They brought us the plates and placed them on the table, then it was our turn to put them in front of us. They took away the cutlery but then didn't bring it back. The only wine that was right was a Vermentino di Ponente. Unfortunately, they brought the bottle to the table already opened, not even bothering to let us taste it before drinking. As for the rest, I hate waste, but most of the entrees were left on the plate. I won't comment further, otherwise I'll break my phone. I hope you go and try it, so you can have a yardstick for how NOT to do restaurants. If you want to spend as little as here at Mac, at least you won't complain. I'll write to you tomorrow if I've had food poisoning. Otherwise, we were kind and polite, so apart from the serious oversights and shortcomings of the staff, they didn't treat us badly.

22/07/2025: I went a few nights ago, brought by friends who were already frequenting the place. I must say I was pleasantly surprised by the savory crepes, so much so that I later ordered a sweet one with chocolate cream and Grand Marnier. Since I started, I returned two days later for another savory crepe. I must say the menu offers a nice selection of crepes with various fillings, both savory and sweet. I think I'll be back soon.

12/06/2025: Very good pancakes, very friendly owner. Great price, my recommendation

20/07/2025: Enjoy your dinner at this small fusion restaurant in Albissola. Extensive menu, with many vegetarian options. The food is well-cooked, with excellent sweet and sour tofu and udon, and the sushi is also very good and fresh, with crispy seaweed and quality ingredients. The place isn't very well-kept, especially outside. The young man who served us was very courteous, while the woman, on the other hand, was a bit more grumpy. She scolded us for giving a carrot that had fallen to our dog, thinking we were sharing dinner with him, and then we had the impression that she was watching us to see if we offered the dog more food. Otherwise, nothing to complain about, a good dinner.

17/07/2025: Every time we come to Albisola, this restaurant is a must-visit for authentic Chinese cuisine, which is now hard to find elsewhere. Chef Zan is a true phenomenon in skill and charm!

22/07/2025: Definitely not a restaurant for lunch.

13/07/2025: Excellent place, excellent restaurant, excellent pizzeria with parking, surrounded by greenery, what can I say? To recommend and to try

01/08/2025: Great food friendly staff and very reasonably priced. The rabbit is exceptional. Might become our favourite GOTO eatery.

16/06/2025: Fantastico locale in un caratteristico "carugio" ligure. Ottimo il cibo e buonissimi anche i cocktail. Il personale ti fa sentire di casa. Ambiente rilassato e divertente! Ogni tanto si affaccia della fauna indigena molto interessante. Tornerò sicuramente! (Attenti ad Asia)

11/07/2025: Takeout. Excellent food. Very fast delivery.

11/06/2025: Excellent raw material, and exquisite staff

23/07/2025: The entire staff treated us all as family. They were generous and the food was wonderful, fresh, local cuisine.

30/06/2025: Neglected place, without a sign that makes its identity clear. In my opinion, the prices are too high to justify the place and the quality of the food. A 20 euro fish appetizer where the fish was almost absent and the salmon tasted stale... The badly cooked grilled fish where I had to give up the overcooked tuna... I gave up dessert and coffee to limit the DAMAGE... honestly, the owners need to review some things. For me it was not a happy expense...

25/05/2025: Very good pizza, top desserts and really beautiful location! Highly recommended!

22/05/2025: One of the worst gluten free pizzerias I've ever tried and crazy prices, but the staff was friendly and professional.

29/07/2025: The prices are okay. But the ice cream is decidedly average. In my case, the yogurt and chocolate weren't bad, but the melon was terrible.

22/07/2025: Gelateria Rainbow is a retro-style establishment located in one of Alassio's main squares, always crowded but not chaotic. The service is prompt, but not particularly welcoming. Let's get straight to the point: the disparity in the offerings. In addition to the cones and cups, there's also the option, for €4, of a "large" cone, called a "ciada," which I choose. The option includes four flavors, and I modestly thought that, similar to other places, there was a proportion between the size of the cup and the amount of gelato. I was sorely mistaken! Shockingly, the small two-flavor cup had MORE gelato than the "ciada," which actually consists of four scoops of "mignon" gelato. This isn't a clear offer in itself, but it's bordering on unfair commercial practice. Be aware of this to avoid being ripped off like I was. Qualitatively, it's a fairly bland ice cream, with little bite, at least for the flavors I tried, which were a bit similar. A special mention goes to the banana, though; it tasted very good. Alas, I definitely wouldn't return to Rainbow. I left there feeling furious: I could have made a public complaint, but the stern looks would probably have turned into rudeness, and honestly, when you're at the beach, I don't feel much like that.

05/03/2025: We came across this place thanks to a google search. It was a real surprise!! A little hesitant given some reviews we were rewarded by finding something completely different!. Great food, impeccable service, delightful setting. Highly recommended!

26/05/2025: Credo che sia la quinta volta che "raggiungiamo" L'Ulivo... e questo la dice lunga! Il posto, scusate la "location", appaga la vista sia in esterni che all'interno. Classico locale informale ma ben tenuto, esterno da cartolina. Il cibo è ottimo, il servizio presente ma nono ossessivo, il principale un simpaticissimo Oste con la passione per la caccia. Si mangia bene, cose genuine fatte in casa e bene, cosa non scontata. Probabilmente nell'entroterra ligure si possono incontrare molte trattorie, alcune ottime altre un po' meno: qui si ha la certezza che, alzandosi da tavola, si è soddisfatti! Rapporto qualità / prezzo direi molto buono. Mangiando in quattro, due antipasti, tre primi, quattro secondi, due dolci e un formaggio con marmellata, litro di vino della casa e passaggio di alcolici fatti in casa, abbiamo speso 35 eurini a testa. poco più che in pizzeria, poco meno che all'Autogrill! buon appetito a tutti.

25/05/2025: Sono stata a cena con mio marito in questo bellissimo agriturismo a Barassi. La prima cosa che ci ha colpito è la meravigliosa vista sul mare....abbiamo individuato un tavolino fuori e già ci immaginiamo a cena quest'estate! Dentro il ristorante è squisito, tutto in legno con un camino che fa davvero atmosfera. Il cibo molto buono, in particolare la marmellata di pesche servita in abbinamento al gorgonzola: divina! Un grazie particolare a Giorgia che ci ha servito durante la cena: ha saputo unire professionalità e simpatia! Torneremo sicuramente!

13/07/2025: Un ritorno un po' deludente a questo ristorante che aspira ad essere di alto livello, e che ho già recensito un anno fa , per una cena con amici: la serata è tiepida, con una splendida luna sul mare. Il servizio è molto gentile e il menu ha alcune opzioni senza glutine. Ma...ma..a mio parere alcuni aspetti vanno decisamente migliorati. Intanto le porzioni sono piuttosto esigue in relazione al costo, i piatti risultano un po' basici e talora scarichi di sapore, anche se la materia prima è ottima. Uno dei commensali ed io ordiniamo l'antipasto di polpo, per me senza glutine : quando ci portano i piatti, poichè sembrano uguali, chiedo conferma al cameriere, che porgendomi uno dei due piatti risponde "PENSO sia senza glutine", per noi celiaci frase da orrore puro, perchè abbiamo bisogno di certezze. Su mia cortese richiesta il giovane cameriereva a a chiedere in cucina e, per fortuna, entrambi i piatti sono gluten free. Ritengo importante che si implementino i corsi sulle intolleranze anche per il personale di sala, onde evitare situazioni di incertezza. Tornando al menu...Il tentacolo di polpo è di medie dimensioni e poggia su una crema di ceci (insapore). Di secondo ordino pesce al sale, un pagello freschissimo che mi viene mostrato a crudo, e che, mi dice il cameriere, pesa sui 600 gr. , quindi un bel pesce. Peccato che quando mi arriva il piatto cucinato, i grammi siano al massimo 180/200, e presentati davvero male: la polpa è "smaciullata" e piena di spine, cosa che francamente trovo inammissibile in un ristorante così ambizioso. Inoltre, pur se buono, il pesce è troppo cotto e quindi risulta stopposo. Mio marito prende il gran fritto di pesce, che a nostro parere di "gran" ha solo la dicitura sul menu. Molto interessante la carta dei vini. Non potendo mangiare dolci, chiedo una coppetta di frutti di bosco (mirtilli, lamponi o fragole), ma non hanno nulla. Spesa: 256 euro x 4 persone, che con lo sconto diventano 240, per due piatti esigui a testa - tranne mio marito che ha preso solo il fritto - due dolci, una bottiglia di vino, un caffè. Abito in zona, ma credo non tornerò, e lo dico a malincuore perchè le potenzialità ci sono.

06/07/2025: Cena molto buona in una bella location, personale molto gentile e disponibile. Ottimi piatti di pesce ben presentati. L’unica pecca le tempistiche, attese un po’ lunghe.

21/07/2025: To whoever took the order today, July 21, 2025, at approximately 1:10 PM, I would advise them to change jobs so as not to let the Hamburger Restaurant go bankrupt. We ordered two burgers, specifically asking for them to be rare, as overcooked meat is inedible. Bear in mind that there were only four people in the restaurant at the time, so it was empty. The kitchen certainly wasn't working hard. Well, the first one arrived after 5 minutes (an acceptable amount of time), and the second after over 10 minutes, but BOTH OVERCOOKED!!!! I wanted to be very calm and polite, because workers can make mistakes, and point out to the person who took the order that the burgers were overcooked, almost stringy. The response?: I'M SORRY, THE KITCHEN FORGOT THEM ON THE GRILL... shrugging and asking the next customer for their order!!!!!!!! We've been eating there for years with colleagues and friends, but I'll do everything I can to persuade anyone to come and eat there. I've read some reviews, and based on their approach, what happened to me today isn't an isolated incident!

19/07/2025: The sandwich was amazing! Strong flavors and generous portions. I'll definitely be back.

13/07/2025: Starting this year, TAKE-AWAY only, Brioches MADE TO ORDER! They could have simply decided to "thaw" a few more... after two summers, the owner advised me to get them at the bakery next door... shame... Lost Customer!

29/07/2025: Wonderful. I had a perfect culinary experience. I ate Bruschetti with tomatoes, pizza and fried seafood. Everything was excellent. The Tiramisu dessert was a delight. Airy and creamy. I recommend this place. Among the few that appreciates guests and also offers snacks on the house. The food was worth all the money. Excellent price-quality!

24/07/2025: An elderly gentleman greeted us very warmly and recommended a table. We were offered a glass of Prosecco as a welcome drink (it's included in the "Coperto" service package). We chose a pizza with bacon and Brie, and one with sausage, tomatoes, and lettuce. I've never had salad on a pizza, except for arugula. I found this one delicious and fresh. The pizza with bacon and Brie was also very tasty. We ordered a bottle of white wine on the recommendation, which was delicious.
