What a fabulous restaurants . We wanted to find a special venue for my birthday meal with friends during our holiday in chiavari and this fitted the bill perfectly. Fantastic presentation and deliciously tasty courses. The staff were incredibly attentive and the whole meal experience was enhanced by the little extras like the prosecco, taster starters, muscat wine and limoncello . I would thoroughly recommend it for a special occasion.

What an amazing place. We had a dinner for 4 people on the stunning beach of Baia del Silenzio enjoying the sunset and the sound of the waves. The lights on the tables made the atmosphere so vibrant and charming. The service is absolutely outstanding, they care to give you an excellent customer experience providing with a great competence/professionalism. The quality of the food, the unique receipts and the Beauty of the presentation are more than exceptional. Absolutely recommended

It is a good sign already, that most assessments are in Italian.We came as tourists and were greeted friendly, no complaints about ordering only one plate per person and drinking no wine.Congratulations to the cuisine, we loved everything we tasted and can especially recommend the desserts (see the picture of my meringue pie and the apple pie was even better).Grazie per la positiva recensione ,per Noi i Clienti sia Italiani che Stranieri sono tutti molto importanti , anche se mangiano un solo piatto e un dolce . Grazie di aver scelto il Tannino.Vittorio e il Suo Staff.

Ate here on on next to last night and ended up again the next night. Very friendly hosts with food a step up from the mass produced meals at most of the tourist restaurants. Lovely wine and the quality of the food is top notch. Recommend the tuna with herb crumb and the beef cheek ( but not together )Very nice! Thank you so much

Harmony in everything: hospitable people cook delicious food and serve it in the most elegant way. During our vacation in Sestri Levante we visited Balin several times and in our opinion it was number 1!Appetizer. Tar tar of smoked salmon, avocado quinoa and mango cream was very light and delicious. Octopus toasted with baby mozzarella and Toasted baby calamar with fried zucchine with yogurt sauce were nice. Tar tar of Female Piedmont beef with black truffle was perfect. First courses. Toasted Turbot was very tender, Lobster on potato cream was fine, Fish soup with the catch of the day was great!And my hit - Grilled fish clean with seasonal vegetable sauces! Female beef with brioches bread and stracciatella cream was super!Dolce - good! We were advised and very much liked Vermentino Colli di Luni Santa Catarina Ligurian vine!Thank you for the high class!

If you are staying in Sestri, this little restaurant is worth the very short cab ride. When searching in Trip Advisor, it shows up in Sestri Levante but it is actually in Riva Trigoso. If using a navigator you must put Via delle Americhe. The risotto and the pesto pasta were excellent, the type you hope to find when traveling to Italy! The owners were so easy going and gracious. This truly local place is worth the extra effort in getting there and if caught in a pinch the owner is the type of guy who would drive you back to your hotel. I am fairly certain I was one of the first Americans to visit!

We dropped by for lunch and ordered the lunch menu: for 13 euros 2 courses of your choice and wine. We had some kind of seafood salad, zucchini omlette, seafood lasagna and one more thing I still couldn't identify but tasted great. The service was so friendly that we felt like home :) only the food was way better. I also appretiate the no plastic policy of the place. Overall a lovely experience, would return anytime, thank you!

A HISTORIC MANOR of the end of '800 facing the sea : location for exclusive EVENTS , new RESTAURANT
Reviewed By touringscot
We were staying at the Grand Bristol hotel in Rapallo end of September 2016 and the weather was excellent so walking about we passed the Villa twice a day for 4 days before we worked out how to get to it as their signage was a bit lacking - but eventually went into the communal park and found the entrance gate! So glad we did. It is an oasis of calm away from the bustle and traffic of downtown Rapallo and simply stunning views from the terrace. Very romantic and nicely furnished.Had dinner and then came back for our last holiday lunch. Both times the service was attentive and the food excellent. Enjoyed the risotto with strawberries and the sea bass baked in salt - well cooked and not overdone as sadly it can be.Overall it is a cut above any other restaurant in Rapallo and we would thoroughly recommend seeking it out if you are staying in or near Rapallo.
