I migliori ristorantinella città Portovenere della La spezia

26/10/2025: Excellent service, delicious food, and a charming location! Very friendly owners.

23/10/2025: Picturesque location let down by poor service. Visited for lunch and tried to explain to the elderly waiter (with the help of Google translate) that we do not speak Italian and we would do our best to communicate in Italian. From there the level of service plummeted. We ordered scampi and a pesto spaghetti dish. The later did not arrive with the former and eventually we asked about the missing meal. A few words were spoken between two waiters and 15 minutes later, the spaghetti dish eventually arrived with no apology or explanation. We had walked passed several other restaurants along the harbour front and chosen Elettra, in part, due to the linen table cloths expecting commensurate service levels. We were sadly mistaken and left with the feeling that the waiter did not want to serve tourists.

08/12/2025: Located less than a kilometer from the center of Portovenere, La Chiglia restaurant was one of the best surprises of our holiday here. The restaurant is seafront with parking, and the food, service, and friendliness are five-star. If you're in the area and want to eat expertly prepared, fresh fish and more, this is the place for you.

24/11/2025: Excellent food, charming and very refined atmosphere, very kind and attentive staff. I recommend it.

02/10/2025: Absolutely amazing experience! We had the selection of seafood appetizers and it was absolutely delicious, probably one of the best ever! Also seafood spaghetti and mix of fried seafood were perfect!

14/09/2025: It's always a unique experience eating here: top-quality seafood, beautifully cooked. See you next time!

20/11/2025: Excellent restaurant with always very fresh fish, cooked well respecting the raw materials

08/11/2025: Excellent restaurant, very good food. I particularly enjoyed the raw fish appetizer. The location, not much to say, is enviable.

12/11/2025: Delicious food, great service and a lovely atmosphere - calm, unrushed and casual, exactly what we were looking for at lunch. The pistachio semifreddo deserves a special mention - one of the best desserts I've ever tried! - as does the sciachetrá with cantucci. Highly recommended

23/10/2025: Very good experience. The food is very good and the staff is very pleasant!

04/12/2025: A beautiful location and atmosphere, I was very pleased and relieved when they said they could make the pesto pasta vegan so I could eat it (no milk, eggs). Unfortunately we had requested penne pesto pasta and after twice bringing us the wrong pasta we decided to leave it. They said they wouldn't charge us as we had really tried to explain we wanted penne, but they still charged us which meant we ended up paying for two extra dishes. They also didn't say the bread cost extra too. To be honest I think they just thought we were foreigners they could hustle, so could be worth you showing a photo of what you want as 'penne' isn't clear enough and you'll end up with 'trofie' or the small penne instead of the larger size that I thought was standard for penne. 😂👎🏻

06/11/2025: A fabulous experience. Superb fried food delivered directly to the dock and enjoyed on the boat between Portovenere and La Palmaria. Compliments go to Massimo. We'll definitely be back.

11/10/2025: Fantastic Stay at Grand Hotel Portovenere! 🌊 I've just had the most magical 3-night stay at the Grand Hotel Portovenere, and I'm already dreaming of going back! This place is an absolute gem, set in a beautifully restored 17th-century convent right on the water's edge. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Their kindness and passion for the region truly made our trip special. The food was a highlight every single day. Dining at the Palmaria Restaurant with its stunning panoramic terrace views was an experience in itself. The cuisine was innovative, fresh, and absolutely delicious—a perfect taste of Liguria! Waking up to the view of the colorful harbor and Palmaria Island from our balcony was unforgettable. The hotel's location is perfect, right in the heart of charming Portovenere and with the ferry to the Cinque Terre literally at your doorstep. If you're looking for a luxurious, romantic, and utterly satisfying escape, look no further. I can't recommend this hotel enough!

14/08/2025: An amazing vacation; calling it a hotel is an understatement given the many activities available thanks to the concierge's invaluable advice. We tried the sunset boat excursion with aperitif and an exclusive boat tour of the Cinque Terre. Needless to say, the location is fantastic for visiting the center and the famous church of San Pietro. Close to excellent restaurants, including the Grand Hotel's own: the Palmaria restaurant. The friendly, helpful staff helped make those days and our stay at the Grand Hotel itself a special memory...thanks again!

21/10/2025: Beautifully situated on the water, it's incredibly cozy when it gets dark and the lights in the bay come on. The food was good, but nothing more to say. Service is prompt but not entirely up to par with the rules of gastronomy.

27/09/2025: If it weren't for the enchanting location, it would just be a waste of time and money.

18/11/2025: Came because of the great reviews, stayed for the food. The incredible deconstructed tiramisu was outstanding, as was the service by Luca.

28/10/2025: High-end restaurant, excellent menu, kindness, courtesy and competence, fair price.

17/11/2025: Really nice lunch, tasty food, lovely hospitality.

13/11/2025: Historic place where you can enjoy a special stew...very kind...I'll be back

22/08/2025: Exceptional in every way: top-quality ingredients, attentive, friendly, and attentive service, superb cuisine. Well done! 👏 You only eat what's in the kitchen (and only fish), a guarantee of the quality of the dishes. The owner tells many anecdotes that brighten the evening. We'll definitely be back!

13/08/2025: We had a wonderful evening!! The terrace setting is idyllic. It's easy to understand and feel that this is a generous meal prepared by passionate people whose goal is to showcase local produce. The meal was divine, as was the service. A must-do if you're near Cinque Terre, rather than heading to a tourist trap.
