I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Liguria

14/09/2025: Simple and welcoming place, quality food, and friendly staff. The prices are also fair.

17/08/2025: Not a very positive experience. I ordered pasta with clams, mussels, and shrimp, and the fish had zero flavor (seeing other reviews, it's happened to other customers as well). The owner was rude and, judging by her attitude, seemed annoyed. The mussels and clams weren't very clean—there was some sand in them—but they were still edible. That evening, looking back at the bill, something didn't add up. In fact, when I calculated the amount we'd consumed, the total was wrong... she'd overcharged us! A place with untapped potential and a friendly atmosphere that needs revisiting.

17/07/2025: We were disappointed. Due to a mistake in the dates, they didn't accommodate us at all, even though we asked for another date to go. I'm sorry it was our mistake, but if someone had thought of staying in a different period, perhaps the kindness and courtesy of accommodating us a little could have been used as a reference point. That wasn't the case.

14/07/2025: Excellent hotel, the girls at reception are incredibly kind, I recommend them

23/08/2025: We had a non-spicy kebab pizza... it was good, and they even offered us a small plate of fries to pass the time...

12/05/2025: Good kebab and excellent flours for pizza

10/09/2025: My husband and I had dinner at this restaurant a few nights ago, hoping for a romantic evening to round off our pleasant stay in Albenga, but unfortunately, it didn't turn out that way. We ordered a cured meats appetizer that included several slices of salami, four slices of 90% fat pancetta (I wonder if the restaurant owner has ever heard of cholesterol...), and four slices of cooked ham. My husband very discreetly told the waitress that, in his opinion, cooked ham shouldn't be served in a fine appetizer. The waitress, probably exaggerating, told the chef, who came over to us, and in a loud, arrogant tone of voice, drawing the attention of the people at other tables, essentially told my husband that he shouldn't have made that comment since it was a top-quality cured meat. I'd like to point out that we come from the Norcia area, a truly excellent place for cured meats (it's no coincidence that the delicatessen owner is also called a norcino), and we frequent restaurants quite often, but never once have we been offered cooked ham as an appetizer. It's certainly considered inferior to raw ham, if not for the fact that it contains chemical additives, while the quality of raw ham depends on the curing process, which justifies the price difference. But what particularly bothered me wasn't the choice to include cooked ham, which we can respect but not agree with, but rather the decidedly arrogant tone of this person, completely contrary to the duty of hospitality that should be a must for any restaurateur. What can I say? Our evening didn't end well, and based on the experience we had, we consider this restaurant TO BE ABSOLUTELY AVOIDED.

02/09/2025: Found it by chance while wandering around the historic center. The waiters were very helpful and friendly. We enjoyed the delicious fritto misto, as were the desserts.

09/10/2025: DO NOT EAT HERE Food was good. Service was great. Then our €92 bill ballooned to €161. Seems we were hot with the usual tip, city tax, charges for napkins, cutlery, etc. Read the reviews. It’s a trend at this place.

30/09/2025: Amazing experience. Food is so fresh. Staff is so attentive. We sat by the water and had a perfect experience. I don’t understand the reviews. If you don’t want to go to a high end restaurants that changes more than the rest of Italy, don’t come to Portofino. 100% worth your money!

01/10/2025: Competent, fast service, delicious steak. Good house wine. Friendly waiter. And the dessert—lemon cake and tiramisu—was amazing!

29/09/2025: The worst service i ever had. Seems like a family run place. The waiter was ok. However the guy, who appeared to be the owner, while serving others, saw me with a salad and a drink, aggressively addressed me about ordering “just a salad” and in broken english demanded that i leave the place in 20 minutes. In the end the salad cost me more than the price in the menu. I’m sure there are other places with better food and service in the village. The general rating was 2.7, i wish i saw that before i walked in the place.

20/09/2025: 6 Stars Boss Marco & Staff Thank you so much for everything 😍👌

14/09/2025: Absolutely beautiful restaurant a bit away from the main beaches. The seafood pasta was delicious, wine crisp and cold, service extremely friendly. It’s truly a little gem.

08/08/2025: Excellent place! The service was spectacular, I highly recommend it! I loved the lasagna and the tiramisu, which was unbeatable. Francesca treated us so kindly, making us feel at home!

02/08/2025: Poor quality Spritz, the prosecco had lost its sparkle, apart from adding soda, that's all the barmaid offered me. My friend had ordered a glass of prosecco which just filled the bottom of the glass. As for the mini bruschette with (supposed) guacamole, disgusting, feeling like there was flour in it. All that for the modest sum of €22.

12/07/2025: Tenía muchas ganas de comer en este lugar durante nuestra visita a Santa Margherita porque parecía súper lindo y el menú sonaba apetitoso. Revisé su horario tan temprano en el día para asegurarme de que llegaríamos a tiempo para la cena. Cuando llegamos pedí una mesa para dos en mi mejor Italiano. Una mujer de pelo corto nos ofreció una pequeña mesa en la parte trasera del restaurante, justo al lado de la ruidosa cocina, pero respetuosamente la rechacé y esperé unos minutos para ver si se liberaba otra mesa. Cuando una pareja se levantó y se fue, pregunté si podíamos tener esa mesa, en Italiano, e hice una señal por si acaso mi pronunciación no era clara. Las mujeres me dijeron: “no, estamos llenos”. Le reiteré que acababan de irse y que una mesa estaba vacía, y la mujer me gritó en Italiano “¡Estamos llenos!”, nos ahuyentó y me dio la espalda. Nunca he sido tan profundamente irrespetado por alguien en el sector de servicios, nunca ni en ningún país. Terminamos yendo al restaurante de fusión Japonés al otro lado de la calle, que era delicioso, asequible y tenía un excelente servicio al cliente. Te recomiendo ir allí en su lugar.

29/06/2025: Leckeres Essen in einem authentischen kleinen Restaurant, sehr freundlicher Service. Pasta wie wir sie uns wünschen, als ob die italienische Mamma am Herd steht. Tolles FRITTO MISTO!!! Sehr zu empfehlen!!
