Had a fantastic dinner here! The cheese platter was exceptional. Chef came out to explain some of the cheeses. And the waitress also did a fabulous job of explaining different fresh pasta on the menu. All around a great meal. Eat here!

Splendid food and good fish.
We have spendt a very nice evening.
Desserts are very expensive, not really worth the price.
Maybe a bit too sophisticated attitude and self confidence compared to the food quality. The guy by the paying terminal could be more gentle and at least thank and say goodbye when a customer has paid and is going to leave.

After sunbathing and swimming we always have our aperitivo at Enoteca Baroni. We sit outside in the narrow street, enjoying the shade, the cold wine, prosecco and all the lovely small dishes they prepare. All fresh and tasty. We will be back.

My wife with me were in this restaurant accidentally (walked past and decided to eat). We ordered ravioli with crab meat, fettuccini with pesto and fried fish mix + two glasses of local white wine. Everything turned out very tasty. The staff wasperfect( beyond praise).
I recommend this place, if you want to eat delicious food in a friendly atmosphere.

This is probably the best food in Lerici. Amazing fresh seafood - fried and other ways too. It's small, really small. We could only have one shape pasta for our group because the kitchen is too small to cook two pastas at once! So, you have to be adventuresome and flexible to eat here, but if you are, it's a huge payoff. Menu is more extensive than I thought - seared tuna, pasta with tomato or pesto, and lots of seafood dishes. We had pasta with seafood marinara that was outstanding.

So far the most enjoyable dinner of many during out stay in Lerici. Both the fish (Ricciola = greater amberjack) and steak were brilliant. Extremely friendly staff who coped with our lack of Italian admirably. Mainly a seafood restaurant but with two steak dishes on the menu. Good local wines and overall not too expensive.
Definitely on our list for a return visit.

Our adult family of five had an enjoyable dinner in this family restaurant. Our hosts, Leandro and Mariangela were very gracious. The local pasta and seafood dishes were uniquely prepared and very tasty. Our dinner was a great conclusion to our five days touring the Ligurian Coast.

In restaurants at some hotels i was can delicious to eat. But not at this time. We with my wife was ordered risotto with saffron and shrimp, and tagliatelle with white rabbit and sauce. Risotto was categorically not edible (rice was cooked on shrimp broth with a lot of milk cream and solt, which turned it into a liquid salty gruel). Tagliatelli with rabbit were ordinary. It is worth noting the staff's attention and excellent quality of service.
For food I do not recommend this place.

After several years living nearby, I finally got to visit the place. I hadn't realised what a great view you get of Spezia and Lerici. The service was good, friendly and the food was plentiful, and of good quality. We all took the set menu, but after the antipasto, we realised that we needed to scale down a bit, so we took half portions for the primi (a very good risotto) We were pleasantly surprised to get a reduced bill!

Ristorante prospiciente il porticciolo turistico di Lerici. Veranda esterna riparata e interni al piano rialzato dai quale si gode una vista spettacolare sul Golfo dei Poeti.
Reviewed By Ellen S - Washington, District of Columbia, United States
Finally managed to eat here on our last day in Lerici, and were glad we did. It is more elegant than most of the places on the main square, and the view is particularly lovely. The food (bronzino ravioli with a lovely seafood sauce, and fritto misto) was very good. Service friendly and pleasant.
