I migliori ristoranti in Genova

17/07/2025: Not at all professional, I don't like it

21/06/2025: Bar caffetteria situato di fronte alla stazione, locale abbastanza carino e personale gentile. Buono il caffè, tutto ok.

16/08/2025: Old McDonald's without the usual screens, narrow place or rather small but otherwise the service is ok

23/06/2025: At least clean those bathrooms, hygiene is important.

11/07/2025: The quality is in line with the city, but too expensive: two pieces of focaccia with onion and a large bottle of water €10

18/05/2025: Fresh pastries...pastries with cream sold as fresh and paid for as fresh...but from the day before...inconceivable!

10/08/2025: A beautiful place, but unfortunately, given the "standing" it aims to maintain, it falls short in some respects, specifically in the following areas: - Tables in the gazebos with rust spots - Side curtains on the gazebo partially missing. - Dirty/stained sun lounger mattress (we asked for it to be replaced, and it was promptly replaced with apologies for the inconvenience). - Bathroom hygiene needs updating (lack of toilet paper in the women's bathroom and cleanliness needs improving). In my opinion, the price paid doesn't match what's offered. Considering that the price for 5 hours (from 2 pm to 7 pm) is €137, I would have expected greater quality and attention to service. It wouldn't take much, especially considering the number of gazebos (28), to make this beach truly the "gem" and most exclusive beach in Santa Margherita, as advertised. I'd also like to point out that we purchased a thermal water bottle. It's very nice looking, with the bathroom logo on it, but it doesn't keep the water cold at all, even though it was guaranteed to work properly at the time of purchase. (Please avoid making any comments without first having verified your claims, to avoid disappointment.) Regarding the restaurant, since we didn't eat there, I can't express any opinion, but having read the dishes offered and given the location, I feel compelled to give a positive assessment. Another positive note was the receptionist, who demonstrated courtesy and professionalism. P.S.: I've changed my rating from 3 to 1 star because I'd like to point out that after just 7 days, the thermal water bottle has rust spots on both the cap and the inside (as shown in the photo). This is absurd; it's unsafe to use, as you risk drinking rust. Any feedback is appreciated.

01/08/2025: This year, like last year, we chose this beach resort for its proximity to home and the gazebos, but we discovered at the start of the season that the management had changed. We immediately had problems with bookings: we therefore decided to start with a week, from Monday, June 30th to Sunday, and this already created problems because the weekly stay, for which we had been asked to pay €1,250 in advance, could not be made due to the different rates between the months of June and July. Therefore, we immediately paid €1,400 for the Monday of June and the week from Tuesday to the following Monday (July). Unfortunately, due to force majeure (bad weather), we lost three days of the booked period, so my husband asked the manager if we could make up the days on other days. He was told that we could only make up two, and although we didn't fully agree, we accepted (at €200 per day). When we rebooked for the two-day make-up session, we were told we were only booking one day, not two. At that point, we replied that we wouldn't be willing to negotiate like in a Marrakech souk, and that in a €200-a-day establishment, customers deserve a service that's proportionate and worthy of the price they pay. Bottom line: three paid days wasted and service subpar due to incompetence and a lack of professionalism, but above all, lost customers.

06/04/2025: Nice and good, but high prices.

02/04/2025: Passando per via Balbi in pieno centro storico a Genova vicino alle varie università sono entrato in questo bar caffetteria della nota catena di cucina tipica genovese di bars e caffetteria ben presente in città ed ho preso al banco un ottimo e squisito caffè con un bicchierino di acqua gasata. Il bar è piccolino con tanti tavolini interni nelle varie sale interne ed è frequentato sopratutto da giovani universitari ed è possibile fare colazione ed anche pranzare. Come sempre nei vari locali di Mentelocale il punto di forza è rappresentato da tutto il personale veramente adorabile accogliente sorridente competente gentile cordiale e disponibile. Mon hanno servizio al tavolo credo lo fanno solo a pranzo e quindi bisogna prima pagare e poi andare al banco e fare l’ordinazione. Tornerò un’altra volta per andare a pranzo. Infine i prezzi sono veramente buoni. Passing through via Balbi in the historic center of Genoa near the various universities I entered this bar and cafe of the well-known chain of typical Genoese cuisine of bars and cafes well present in the city and I took an excellent and delicious coffee at the counter with a glass of sparkling water. The bar is small with many internal tables in the various internal rooms and is frequented mainly by young university students and it is possible to have breakfast and also lunch. As always in the various Mentelocale locations the strong point is represented by all the truly adorable, welcoming, smiling, competent, kind, friendly and helpful staff. As always they do not have table service maybe only at lunch and therefore you have to pay first and then go to the counter and place your order. I will return another time for lunch. Finally the prices are really good.

15/08/2025: We were two people, ravioli with overcooked ragù, mixed fried squid and shrimp only because, according to the owner, the customers at lunch had massacred it, completely raw. Terrible service. Reading the owner's responses to the negative reviews, I would tell him to close the business because tonight he deserved me to call the police. My partner was a gentleman to pay him 70 euros for disgusting food. I'm giving it one star, but it's even too much.

26/07/2025: I had a wonderful time! Very welcoming, wonderful owner... I felt like I was in a family atmosphere... highly recommended.

04/08/2025: Ristorante davvero bello e riservato anche se in centro a santa Margherita, cibo ottimo, pesce fresco e personale davvero molto molto gentile. Ci torneremo sicuramente

25/07/2025: La sorpresa di trovare un luogo unico ed accogliente in un carruggio vista mare sul porto di Santa è stata completata da un’esperienza gastronomica altrettanto sorprendente. Ricette non banali, qualità ineccepibile attenzione e cordialità nel servizio Il tutto ad un prezzo più che equo. Cosa chiedere di più? Bravi!!

25/02/2025: There's no civility whatsoever in this place. Furthermore, cleanliness is lacking, the bathrooms are unsuitable, I feel very sorry and uncomfortable in this place. The entire crew needs to be replaced...

29/06/2025: Yesterday I found myself eating pizza in the flunch pizzeria section, the staff was quite rude after 5 minutes waiting for someone to show up I kindly asked the lady who was in the kitchen she answered me in an annoyed way rolling her eyes to wait for someone to arrive, after another 10 minutes the same lady takes the order and to my question "can I know if there is lard?" She answers me in an annoyed way that no I needed the pizza to be in a box to take it away and at the sight of the lady putting the pizza on a plate I apologized saying to put it in a box and she rolls her eyes. Totally dissatisfied with this experience considering that the prices are also quite high (€6 for 2 slices of pizza)

08/06/2025: I have been in the cafeteria section of this self-service restaurant located inside the Fiumara shopping center in Genoa Sampierdarena on the ground floor and I enjoyed an excellent coffee sitting at one of the many tables. I saw some really inviting first and second courses and maybe next time I will have lunch with you. The cafeteria staff is welcoming, smiling, competent and friendly and the service is very attentive and fast and the prices are really good.

The canteen staff is friendly, smiling, competent and kind, the service is very attentive and fast, and the prices are very reasonable.

02/07/2025: Workers' menu: •Terrible service and sometimes rude staff •Tasteless food And yet it takes so little, they will never see me again.

25/06/2025: We arrived late, but a piece of focaccia would have been enough… they sat us down. There was only one first course left: pasta with aubergines, but due to a strong allergy we couldn’t eat it. We opted for two second courses: dry omelette roll (last available portion) and rubbery and flavourless chicken, but both served with well-cooked potatoes. We ordered a beer and soda (panaché) and a can of sprite and a small beer in a medium glass arrived. It makes a better impression to say it’s not there: €5.80 is too much. Cost: €26.50

02/09/2025: It's already been 3 times that they've given me croissants and other breakfast items that aren't fresh, at least 1 or 2 days in advance. 3 times that they've given me croissants that aren't fresh, one or two days ago, which is a shame, and the prices are expensive for a bakery. I don't recommend anything.

22/06/2025: The pizza is very good. The focaccia is a little less so. The desserts are excellent. Overall, it is an excellent bakery.

09/08/2025: There are very few outlets for charging your phone in the MS, only 4 for the entire large hall. There is no wireless charging on the pages. Sometimes this makes it impossible to recharge a little. Another thing is the toilet. There is a code on the purchase receipt that you need to use to enter the toilet, but this code does not work. For example, if you ordered food and need to go wash your hands, it is simply impossible to do this. You have to stand in line at the cashier to open the door to the toilet. Then if another person with you wants to wash their hands, you have to stand in line at the cashier again to open the door. Please - make basic things accessible to people - washing hands before eating. You can install sinks in the hall, or introduce another system for people to get to the toilet. I hope the administration will hear this. Thank you.

28/07/2025: The service was good. Unfortunately, the food was inedible. The fries, in particular, were not fresh at all.

24/07/2025: Apericena ottimo con parecchio cibo e servizio adeguato. Unica possibile pecca sono i drink un po’ piccoli ma per il prezzo è accettabile.

28/06/2025: Pizza eccezionale come sempre ...è anche I dolci...bravo lo staff , servizio veloce e cordiale . Una garanzia di serietà

29/07/2025: Took a cup of cappuccino. It was under 2 euros which is nice. Stuff was helpful even tho they were a bit occupied. Definitely coming back for a full breakfast. Some parts of the menu were translated, some weren't.

21/07/2025: I arrived asking for a Campari Spritz. I immediately noticed that the cocktail was unbalanced: almost all water and ice, with little flavor. The aperitif was generous, no complaints about the quantity, but rather sloppy in its presentation: four identical pizzas, chips, olives, and raw carrots. Carrots, which are perfectly fine to serve raw at an aperitif, should always be accompanied by a sauce: this way, completely natural, they looked bland. The glass, as you can see in the photo, was chipped. Even if you drink with a straw, it's still unacceptable to serve a drink in a damaged glass. Furthermore, the coaster was also missing: a small detail, but one that makes a difference in terms of care and hygiene. Final price: €10. Honestly, too much for such a neglected experience. The service was standard, courteous but lacking attention to detail. There were some critical issues, and unfortunately, they leave the impression of a place that focuses more on quantity than quality.

11/05/2025: Complete disaster.....poor service, freshly defrosted fries, huge waiting times....avoid!

05/05/2025: Two tagliatelle with mushrooms, a ravioli with sauce, two grilled fillets, a plate of French fries, a Cola, a soda, two desserts, three place settings €95, prices not displayed, allergens not indicated, menu written on a blackboard, appears more like a tavern than a restaurant, waiters and counter attendant don't even have an apron, prices too high, the food good but not enough to support the asking price
