This is more like a canteen experience with regional cooking, which you order one course at a time.Service is fast, the house wine is good and the food wonderful. Do not expect to be bowled over with decor, but more with authenticity. Prices are very reasonable.

The restaurant is tiny, and you're kind of packed in, but everyone is thoughtful and cordial and it seems cozy. The dishes are authenticly Ligurian, and delicious. We had the minestrone genovese, with a nice glob of pesto in the middle, and spaghetti with arselle, little tiny clams, to begin, and they were both excellent. The spaghetti had the flavor of the clams all the way through it, and the portion was very generous. For a second, we split the calamari al diavolo, small tender squid in a wonderful rich tomato based sauce. With this we had a bottle of water and a "quarto" di vino. The service was quick and jolly, the food was really good, and the bill was 35E total.

Davide and the staff serve up delicious meals! We have eaten there numerous times for the past few years. Try the trofie al pesto, the pizza, the bronzino, the cheese foccaceta.... all mouth watering dishes! If you have the chance to visit this lovely town of Lavagna, make sure that you eat at this restaurant!

This restaurant is worth visiting for the atmosphere and ambience - great fun with all sorts of interesting decorations and a blue-tiled kitchen visible through the hatch. Food was also very good, starters, mains and desserts. Dishes were well-cooked with unusual choices of flavours. The amuse-bouche (?fried chickpea bread things?) was a bit disappointing and a very filling way to start a meal, but it was good to taste a local speciality. My boyfriend enjoyed the beef tartare starter and tripe main course. My risotto with nuts and gorgonzola was al dente (just to warn you in case you like your rice softer) and an interesting red colour! We tried all the 4 red wines which were offered by the glass (one glass of each between 2 of us), first the lighter ones then the full-bodied ones, which allowed us to appreciate the different flavours.Best to make a reservation - we only just managed to get a table on a Wednesday night. Total cost for 2 people having a 3 course meal with drinks was around 80-90 euros.

Very small and romantic restaurant with great food. The only problem was that they had some kind of confusion and we had to wait for a long time for our food. Very good value for the money. Reservation is recommended as the place was very busy at least on Saturday evening.

Tipical italian restaurant where you can find genovese cooking, farinata and pizza! In the historical centre of Lavagna there is an unexpected wonderful garden inside where you can eat during the summer.

We visited the restaurant without making a reservation which initially seemed to be a problem. They eventually had a table in the garden area. When the vaitress came to take our order we asked for an English meny even though we had all conversation in English. Unfortunatly noone felt really comfortable speaking English. This became evident since our order come completey wrong and the service was absolutely non existing. Maybe this is because the waitresses are running during service and there is no time to care to understand you. As you might understand I would not recommend a visit.

A very cozy little restaurant just outside Chiavari's city centre, next to the junction of the motorway. The emphasis is on (very fresh) seafood but there are other options (the menu is rather extensive). The food is delicious: traditional yet with a twist, and the presentation of the dishes is in line with their quality. The service is professional yet friendly. The couple (chef and wife) who runs the restaurant is very nice and passionate. We only had a glass of wine and did not explore the wine list, but it looked complete. Excellent price/quality ratio in the range of 35-55 euro per person, depending on menu choice and wine. Warmly recommended.Dear Alessandro,thank you very much for your opinion about our Restaurant. We hope to see you soon again.Lo staff

We booked a table on the recommendation of our hotel, Excelsior Palace, and we certainly wasn't disappointed. The views were spectacular, especially during sunset. The family that own and run the restaurant were so welcoming and the food was fantastic. One part of me wants it to remain a hidden gem so it doesn't lose its charm. The other part and rightly so wants everyone to know how good it is! A must if you're in the area. We will be back!

It's a journey in the right pleasurable combination of fish dishes, meat if preferred, pasta, special cheese. I went there last week and was really satisfied. Try the raw fish, very fresh; try the specialty of Morone fish; try the home made tortino with vegetables and cheese; try the calamari with peperoni sauce. Don't miss the dessert !!! Wine was great, proposed by the owner, who is a real gentleman and a friendly person. The staff is prepared, smiling and always ready to answer your questions. Price really reasonable. We'll go back there !
