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.

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!

We arrived in Chiavari after a day in Cinque Terre and were looking for a pizza. We happened across the La Bitta about 8pm (normal Italian dinner time) and walked in to see if there were any places for us. You'd think we were robbing the place - even though it was essentially empty 4 servers/waitstaff stared at us like we were from Mars.After they moved into action the food was very good (Calzone Capricossa) and service was very good as well. Just be prepared to be stared at a little.thanks for the review. maybe there was a misunderstanding in the hour of arrival ...I hope to see you soonthe ownerGlauco

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.

Cantina Reggiana

Reviewed By Marima9

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.

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.

Da Felice

Reviewed By Traveler6B

I really dislike posting negative reviews, but in this case, for the sake of other travelers who might be choosing this restaurant based on Trip Advisor reviews as I did, I feel I need to. I simply can't believe all the positive reviews here are legitimate. The best parts of my recent meal at Da Felice were 1) the glass of wine I ordered and 2) the fact that I found free street parking (not an easy feat in Chiavari).The bread was stale, the amuse bouche was greasy, my main course was ok, but a very small quantity of food for the price. I had to send one dish back because it was inedible.The service was good and attentive, but the food was a fail. As evidenced by the very sparsely populated dining room, I believe this place survives on tourists who come in once and learn their lesson.

Stumbled on this place through tripadvisor. It was superb, in a town we didn't think offered much this was a complete surprise. You don't chose from a menu, but you are served with loads of fabulous dishes, using mainly fish and local ingredients. Accompanied by bucket loads of lovely local frizzante wine! All for €35 per head, I have no idea how they do it. And then to top it, the owner took us back to our hotel in his people carrier. Not sure why anyone would stay in Chiavari, but I'd come back to eat here!!

Il Mio Ristorante

Reviewed By giudicialex

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
