Local in the Porto Antico of Genoa with homemade pasta, also in the gluten-free version. The restaurant has some seats both in the internal rooms and at the tables outside.

Dear Valentina, after months glued to the phone screen with my mouth watering looking at the photos of your delicacies, I have decided to give myself a gift and take a train from Pontedera to come and taste something from your bakery in Sarzana. And so here I am early in the morning inside your special place; obviously there was the counter full of wonders and your lively and very pleasant presence. I admit that I didn't say much because I was excited, but I bought many things to try: a slice of savory cake, some scones, a piece of vanilla and berry cake and a lemon and blueberry muffin. Everything was exceptional! The scones almost moved me, the flavor was almost identical to the ones I bought in an old bakery in my town when I was little, I ate them with a dear friend of mine outside of school and it really felt like I was going back there. Never eaten so good in eleven years of celiac disease! Not to mention the desserts: tasty, soft, abundant. No disappointments. The prices are absolutely honest and consistent with the quality of the food, I really hope to be able to return soon.

It's not the first time we go to this restaurant but unfortunately the service is no longer like it used to be. After ordering a dish that is indicated as gluten-free on the menu, we are told that in reality the sauce is gluten-free (thank goodness we had warned the waitress that my partner is allergic to gluten!!!). After 30 minutes of waiting we receive the starter and the second course at the same time. After asking for two coffees we receive one and the other after 10 minutes......and finally after waiting for the bill for 15 minutes we decide to go to the cashier to pay directly and after having reported that it was not as usual the gentleman at the checkout shrugs as if he doesn't care in the slightest. I have always recommended this restaurant but unfortunately I will not do so again. Sin

11/10 recommend! The food is delicious and the staff are extremely kind and incredibly helpful. When I asked about gluten free options they were super accommodating, helped me through the menu, and went out of their way to make sure I could have the pizza I wanted. The location is just a few minutes from the train station, and so much quieter than the other side. Great views, great food, wonderful staff.

I was in this restaurant with my mother a few weeks ago, I point out that my mother is severely celiac and a slight contamination would have made our mini vacation a nightmare. Instead we were welcomed by a boy, I hope and think the manager, young but extremely experienced, they offered us gluten-free appetizers that no one had ever had the foresight to prepare. Extremely generous portions and fresh fish. Kindness, professionalism and knowledge of celiac disease at the highest levels. I feel like writing that I rarely leave reviews, but this restaurant deserves an honorable mention. Even the plating is different for celiacs so that they can quickly recognize the dishes dedicated to them. I find the expense very honest for the quality and service offered. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart

I was recently lucky enough to dine at this seafood restaurant, opting for the five-course tasting menu, and I have to say it was a fantastic experience! Each dish was a delicious surprise, with the freshest ingredients and presentations that were almost too pretty to eat. The service was exceptional: the waiters were incredibly friendly and always ready to help, making the atmosphere welcoming and relaxing. They were able to advise us perfectly and were attentive to every detail, without ever being intrusive. They were especially very attentive towards my wife who, as a celiac, cannot eat anything that contains gluten. Bottom line, everything was just perfect. If you are looking for a place to enjoy amazing seafood and feel pampered from start to finish, this restaurant is a must try. I can't wait to go back!

Totally overpriced for the food we received. The only saving grace was the quality of the seafood, but we had it fried in gluten free flour which was disappointing as a low quality gluten free was used. The side dish for the mixed fried seafood tasted strange and we didn’t eat it. The we also had the breadcrumbed steak and that was totally disappointing and we were surprised that a 4.5 star rated restaurant was serving such a low quality of steak- completely chewy and not prepared the way steak should be prepared. Our waiter (shorter guy wearing a hat) was also speaking over us and not listening to what we were saying. We also complained about the steak and he asked us how we would like to handle the situation and then immediately walked off without hearing out our answer. And then he was no where to be seen after that incident. We were definitely not happy with our experience and we will most definitely never be ordering breadcrumbed steak ever again.

Experience beyond expectations. I travel a lot for work and have been with my elderly parents many times at Bordighera, but today December lunch here has been by far one of our best memories as a family. Believe the 4 stars only might be biased by the price point a bit beyond average, but the combination of the unique location, great food and service deserve sure more. What I like is the quality, variety, stick to tradition (acciughe abbottonate incredibly tasty and balanced and "must try" the use of artichoke and the mixed Cousine between sea and the Ligurian inland traditions). Also a satisfactory and hearty quantity for every appetite (my parents felt at home, even coming from the 40ies generation). Great service, attentive (also to celiac customers) and always with a smile. Location finally is absolutely unique..broad sea terrace spacing 180 degrees from Ospedaletti gulf to the beautiful Church of Sant' Ampelio, sourthermost diamond of Liguria Ponente. Thanks..will come back again..
