Locanda Fra Diavolo

Reviewed By BCG84

This place was recommended by the management of the house we stayed. We went the same day that we arrived without any booking, hoping to get a table for a quick dinner. We asked for a table and the answer was... sorry we are full...... no even, we could offer you a table for any other day, nothing! We were early and the restaurant was empty!! As we were starving, we took a take away pizza from the same place.

Veggia Dian

Reviewed By GuidoMarini

We arrived here following a Slow Food guide advice. Place has a nice patio in a quiet, not spectacular neighborhood. You sit down, order your drinks and courses start coming: five appetizers, two pasta and a main plus dessert, water and wine for 30€. Everything is good or very good, lots of homegrown veggies. A big meal too! Only thing, you don't get to choose anything so if you Are a vegetarian or allergic this may not be the place. Otherwise, great!

This restaurant is in a nice location on terrass overlooking the sea. The menu seems interesting, with its attempt to fusion italian and japanese cuisine (mainly the deep-fry side).The execution and even conception of all the dishes we ate, however, was rather disappointing.The waiter recommended the daily special starter of figs filled with ham and cheese. This at best was worthy of an amateur cook or housewife making party food for a big reception.The "trofie" pasta with squids and zucchini flowers sounded interesting too, however there were at all a total of two small pieces of squid in this huge pasta dish, the zucchini flowers only tasted of the grease they were fried in, a basically tasteless, bland and greasy dish.Finally, the tuna in a "pignoli" pine nut crust sounded interesting on the menu too... it also was bland and greasy, the pine nuts added no other taste than the grease they were fried in.So I'm sorry to say, there still isn't an interesting fine dining option in Diano Marina...

A nice evening above the Mediterranean in the nice atmosphere of the La Femme. We had menu degustiazione for one and Antipasti and secondo piatto separately. It was prepared accordingly but a little design-oriented more than extraordinary taste. The pulpo crosta though was excellent, the different dips/cremes ( as well as those accompanying the raw fish platter (nigiri) nevertheless were boring. Vitello tonnato was a good portion with lots of tonno taste. The roasted fish then was very tasty and excellent together with Ligurian vegetables. The desert was again a little boring and unambitious. Over all we had a very nice evening, service was friendly and efficient, but to be honest we had a little higher expectation-maybe next time.

Lovely Food with friendly service in this small hotel/restaurant hidden behind the railway tracks.Menu choice was varied with some thoughtful options for the region and season. Under new management (3-4 years ago) the family-run small business is friendly and helpful, the food well-cooked and attractively presented. We didn't check out the newly refurbished rooms (all en-suite) but will do so next time. Location is the only drawback. Trains are infrequent, so we weren't disturbed, but for an overnight stay? A fair old trot to the beach and other attractions if you are disabled or have small children.

Italo's Trattoria

Reviewed By HJackson50

So far, we have had our best meal by far at this restaurant. In the evening they provide a set menu for 25 euros I believe. For this you get a mixed Antipasti board to share, a drink, a main course from a selection of about 25, as much salad and dessert you care to eat from the buffet, plus a coffee or limoncello. I choose a fish dish and it was lovely. There is also a kids offering at 7 euros for a main, chosen from 3, and a drink. The food was all beautifully presented. For example, the kids choose burger and chips and it arrived on a painters palette, with room for 4 sauces. Lovely place.

We had lunch at this delightful little restaurant, the fixed menu comprising of Ligurian specialities of starter, main course, a glass of wine and a refillable bottle of water - no plastic. The starter was Bandacujun, a mixture of salt cod and potato rather like a rissole without the breadcrumbs and very tasty indeed. The main course was a lasagne with homemade pesto and was delicious. Altogether a very satisfying lunch

beautiful beach with a lovely promenade, lots of little places to stop and have a coffee or ice cream. While a lot of hotels had their own private stretch of beach you could hire a small changing area and sunbeds for a week if needs be. Beaches and surrounding areas were impeccably clean

Lovely restaurant with nice staff and tasty food, but portions are enormous! We’d have been ok with one portion between 2. They should offer small sizes or warn how big they are as there must be so much waste. We were offered take away containers but if you’re in a hotel that’s not always possible.
