I migliori ristoranti in Livorno

29/08/2025: So, let's start with the positives: a simple atmosphere, friendly staff, and excellent food. The biggest issue is the portion sizes compared to the prices. In a location as unpretentious as a tennis club bar (and rightly so), if you set the price for squid alla diavola (delicious) at €25, you can't afford to pay just one squid (squid is certainly not expensive). The same goes for the grilled octopus: the sauces are delicious, and the octopus is good, but a tiny little tentacle costs €18. In my opinion, the price/quantity ratio needs to be rebalanced. Let me be clear, I say this with affection, but it just won't do. It doesn't take much to rebalance everything!

01/07/2025: We had dinner here on the advice of acquaintances and we were absolutely happy. Tables overlooking the fields and delicious dishes but the plus of the place is certainly Massimo with his friendliness and availability that makes the evening even more enjoyable. Recommended place

15/11/2025: Clean and bright place. Various menu, including pizza as an alternative. Friendly staff and reasonable prices.

14/09/2025: The place was clean and comfortable. I recommend it.

30/10/2025: Excellent pizzas and schiacciatine!

19/09/2025: The perfect compromise for a good meal in Portoferraio without too many frills. Good-quality ingredients, impeccable service.

14/11/2025: A place from another era, home-style dishes unlike any other, simple yet perfectly executed. An atmosphere rich in history and culture that doesn't bow to passing fads or forced innovations. A memorable warmth and welcome. ESSENTIAL

12/11/2025: My family and I have been going there for the holidays (both Christmas and Easter) for years now and if we return every time it is because we find the food, the service, and an excellent atmosphere and also fair quality/price ratio.

10/10/2025: In the center the sandwich was really good, even the chips.

07/10/2025: We arrived around 8:30 PM and the place was practically empty—just us and three other tables. The waiter took about 25 minutes to take our order, and the drinks arrived another 20 minutes later. The food arrived shortly thereafter. I would have expected more kindness and a more welcoming atmosphere: the waiter seemed listless and inattentive. Everything being said from the kitchen was audible, and the music didn't match the atmosphere of the place. There were two young men in the dining room, but everyone seemed to be doing their own thing. Furthermore, the waiter was seen smoking a cigarette in front of the restaurant and then came to serve us our food, smelling strongly of smoke—which was absolutely unacceptable. Overall, the service leaves much to be desired: there's still a lot to improve.

26/10/2025: Nice place with pretty good pizzas. Service is a bit slow. My review refers to a September evening when they were having a pizza tour.

11/09/2025: There were two of us with a dog. The dog was given water. The service was very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed the food. We'll be back tonight. The appetizer plate was both visually and tastefully amazing.

13/08/2025: We were yelled at (literally) because we chose a lounger. They were obviously free for us, but supposedly reserved. You can't smell it. We were then assigned a lounger. After the incident, we weren't willing to pay €50. Directly at the beach (a different provider) you pay €22, including parking. We felt welcome here.

11/08/2025: The restaurant has changed management, the food is excellent and the music is excellent!

23/09/2025: Amazing pizza, good service, must try, I like it!

04/09/2025: Truly good food, fair prices, intimate and relaxed atmosphere. Truly friendly staff. A little corner for relaxation and conviviality.

09/11/2025: I didn't know the place, we stopped with some friends for a pizza... Not bad, thin, well-topped, not heavy to digest... the price is a little less, in my opinion a bit too high... there were 9 of us, we had 4 fries, 9 pizzas, 5 desserts, 1 liter of coke, 1.5 liters of beer, 2 liters of water, 2 liqueurs... total €24 per person... €20 per person would have been more honest...

05/11/2025: I have fond memories of living in Monsano and going there for breakfast on my days off. The restaurant's pizzas are also good. Affordable prices.

11/09/2025: This isn't my first time dining at this restaurant. I returned after a few years, and the quality has improved significantly, thanks to Luca, the manager.

18/08/2025: I had the pleasure of having breakfast and dinner at the Mariva Dune restaurant with my family, and the experience was exceptional! The location is perfect: very close to the sea, yet immersed in a green oasis that guarantees a truly relaxing atmosphere. The food is top-quality, with fresh, tasty dishes prepared with great attention to detail. The staff was extremely courteous and attentive, and the attention to detail, including that of the property manager, Luca, makes the experience even more pleasant and exclusive. Highly recommended for those seeking nature, excellent cuisine, and a relaxing atmosphere. We'll be back soon!

02/11/2025: Quiet lunch, excellent food, ditto wine, very knowledgeable and friendly staff, above-average quality/price ratio. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

19/10/2025: We only had an aperitivo, but it was truly fantastic! Lured by the cocktail menu featuring local products, we couldn't resist and made the right choice: spectacular! and fabulous appetizers! Even though there were at least a dozen of us and they have small tables, they quickly set up a large table for us. The staff was friendly, attentive, and thoughtful in explaining and accommodating our requests. We will be happy to return.

30/07/2025: I'd love to share my impressions. 😊 The friendly, smiling, and chatty staff always leave you feeling positive. 🥰😊 The delicious pizza is a great reason to return to this place. 🍕😊 The atmosphere is perfect for spending time in good company. Every bite of pizza is a feast for the palate. 😋 This place is worth a visit. We definitely recommend it to everyone. 😊 If we're ever in the area again, we'll definitely be back. 🍕

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!
