Popped in for a late lunch whilst en route to the Italian Lakes. The restaurant had just finished its main lunch service, but we were nevertheless welcomed by the very friendly staff. Excellent pasta and an outstanding veggie lasagne. Well worth a quick diversion off the motorway!

We normally only visit Taggia in the winter months, so we weren't aware that this restaurant had outside seating in the summer which made for a very pleasant atmosphere in the old town.Service was very good from friendly waiting staff, with our waiter speaking quite good English. We had a mixture of dishes including pasta, pizzas and fritto misto and they were all excellent, as was the creme brulee which the waiter said he would use the blowtorch himself to ensure it was crunchy on top and indeed it was.No idea of the overall cost as our friends paid, but the prices on the menu looked reasonable for the quality of the food and the setting.The menu (apart from pizzas) was quite small which I always think is a good thing, but there were some delicious dishes of the day on offer. Altogether an excellent evening and we'll be going back.

We visited two nights ago while staying in our motorhome at the marina. Nestled about a 10 minute walk from the marina this looks to be a new restaurant, freshly painted, clean and keen staff. Food was simply delicious - we finished every bite. A seafood salad to share for entree was packed full of freshly cooked mussels, pipis and clams, and a main of pizza for my husband was beautifully cooked - light crust, lovely presentation. I had the spaghetti with seafood, dairy-free and delicious also. Highly recommended.

It seems that Da U Titti has no Michelin star simply because Michelin experts donât go too far from main roads. The cuisine is fantastic. The incredible mixture of tastes. Gazpacho with octopuses. Perfect foie gras. Surprising desserts. Great wine list. Breathtaking moonrise view from the terrace. Reasonable prices for such a place. Last, but not least, the great service. #1 in my personal rating for 2016.

This excellent italian seafood restaurant has a very charming atmosphere and is located directly at the beachfront. The restaurant is built in a beach hut style with lots of bamboo, wooden floor and a thatched roof which creates almost caribbean feeling. We enjoyed lunch with absolutely perfect spaghetti frutti di mare, lovely white vine and a panna cotta dessert which was the best I have ever tasted. The staff was quick and friendly and we will certainly come back to this nice place at next possibility.

My wife and I had a wonderful lunch here after a recommendation by our friend whose apartment we often rent in a nearby town in Liguria. We started with the fish antipasto which could have been a meal in itself. It had delicious carpaccios -- thin slices of seafood almost like sushi -- which made for a beautiful as well as tasty presentation. For our second course we shared a huge plate of spaghetti with clams, one of our favorites and available on almost all menus near the sea. The clams are of tiny varieties that we do not have in the United States. The house white wine was very good and not expensive. The owners and wait staff were friendly to strangers even though they seemed to have many regulars. We will be back this September.

We tried to book for another restaurant, but that was closed. So this restaurant was our 2nd choice. However, we think we were lucky. The restaurant has a small terrace (covered and windfree when necessary) on the other side of the road. The atmosphere is very relaxed and the staff helpful. We ordered the mixed seafood as a starter. Very good. I asked for tuna (which was off menu) and they had it. It was great the tuna tasted very good. A liter of houswine complemented our meal. Thank you very much

We spent the afternoon there after eating on site. Food is great (although not exceptional, but yet good). Very friendly staff, a good place to spend a sunny summer day at the beach !!

Conad seems to control most of the La Riviera mall space (huge supermarket, pharmacy, pet store & cafeteria), and that's not a bad thing at all. The restaurant is sort of like a funky IKEA restaurant knock-off, but that is not a bad thing. Really inexpensive breakfast lunch and dinner items. Good specials. Fresh pizza. Gelato. In high season there's even a free shuttle from the mall to the beachside.
