Been coming here for years. The pansotti with walnut sauce is exactly how it should be. A solid, honest meal. Prices are fair for the neighborhood.

We&#39;ve been back a few times now, always for the food. The grilled octopus is spot on, tender with a good char. The pasta dishes feel homemade. It&#39;s a bit pricey, but you can taste the quality in the ingredients.

Been coming here for years. Their cakes are always fresh, and the savory pastries are a solid choice for a quick lunch. Staff is friendly and knows their stuff.

Delicious food! We sat outside and the table was a bit awkward in positioning to get in and out of easily. The weather was great and the service was great, they spoke English well which was super helpful. I would definitely recommend. Such nice food and plating!

I was impressed by the extensive menu and the quality of the food. Each dish was generous and delicious, making it great value for the price.

Loved the outdoor seating on the pier. The tables were nicely spaced. I really appreciated how fresh the ingredients in my salad tasted, you could tell they were just prepared. The staff wore masks, which felt considerate. A peaceful spot for a light lunch.

The vegan cream pizza was a nice find. The ingredients tasted really fresh, which I appreciate.

The harbor view from our outdoor table was stunning. I enjoyed a local white wine with the seafood pasta &ndash; the pairing really worked. A bit pricey, but that&#39;s the location for you.

The seared tuna was pretty good. Staff were friendly and tried their best to help even with the language gap. Made for a nice, welcoming meal.

The fried seafood mix was really good, the red shrimp were a standout. The whole meal was just easy and comfortable, the staff were so friendly. A nice, relaxed spot for a quiet dinner.

The Greek pizza with feta was a fun surprise. It&#39;s not your usual slice, but the flavors worked really well together. A nice change of pace.

The staff were so nice even though it was packed. Got us a table right away without a booking. Really made the evening easy.

Tucked away in the hills above Varazze. Arrived late for lunch but they were very accommodating. The food shows real imagination, you can taste the quality in the ingredients. A solid local spot.

They probably missed booking from this service. And waiters&#39; timings were awful (like a service overall). No English menu or duplicate lines.

The gluten-free menu is pretty good. I had the pasta and my friend ordered the risotto. Both were decent, though the pasta could have been a bit more al dente. Nice to have options.

The veal roast was tender, but the homemade trofie with pesto really stood out. Fresh, with a nice texture. The local anchovies were a pleasant surprise for a main &ndash; not overly salty at all. A solid choice.

The fish dishes were pretty good. I had the grilled sea bass, cooked just right. The staff were friendly and the decor was nice, though the main room was a bit loud. A decent dinner overall.

The old fashioned here is the real deal. They use a high-quality rye, and the bitters are perfectly balanced. Not too sweet, just the right amount of ice. I keep coming back for that one drink.

The spaghetti with pesto here is the real deal. The sauce is thick, almost creamy, with a deep basil flavor. Pasta cooked just right. That&#39;s what I came for.

This restaurant offers a fantastic selection of pizzas, including vegan and gluten-free options. The quality of the food is top-notch, and the service is quick and efficient.

Found this place on a quiet side street. Perfect for watching the world go by in Portofino, and you don&#39;t have to pay for the fancy harbor view. Just a nice, relaxed spot.

Stopped by for a drink at sunset. The terrace view was really nice. Could see the chefs working in the open kitchen from my seat.

The marinated anchovies and signature spaghetti were generous and satisfying. Fair prices for Ligurian food done well.

The charcuterie board was pretty good, with decent quality meats and cheeses. The presentation shows some nice attention to detail.

Been coming here for years, and they still make the best custom cocktails on request. The bartenders are always up for it.

The focaccia was the star. Perfectly crisp outside, soft and airy inside. They serve it warm with a really good olive oil. The pasta dishes were fine, but I&#39;d go back just for that bread.

Been coming here for years. The relaxed vibe in the historic center is exactly why I keep coming back for a casual lunch.
