We spent three hours over lunch on a quiet, but blustery day in the Mountains. Each course was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Plan ahead. If you intend to enjoy the excellent wines on offer with each course, plan for someone else to drive down the steep and windy road home.

Al Teatro di Campopisano

Reviewed By George M - Edinburgh, United Kingdom

You would never just stumble upon this place and we only happened upon it when looking online for somewhere to eat. It came highly recommended and when we arrived there was no one there, so we were slightly apprehensive. We need not have been, as we were just on the early side as the place was packed out in no time. And we could really see why. The food was absolutely fantastic, with a great wine list, too. Very much somewhere that food is an art form, as the presentation was beautiful. Prices perhaps on the higher side for Genoa, but nothing extortionate. Service was friendly and although English was lacking, we got by and had a great time. One not to miss.

Rocco e i Suoi Fratelli

Reviewed By Hamilmk - Wellington, New Zealand

My wife and I were fortunate enough to both visit Rapallo and eat at Rocco's. Both proved to be fabulous! Great service and an excellent meal. I think the waiting staff appreciated that they had a couple of people who had done joie de vivre about them- they fed of us and we feed off them. Everyone was a winner!

Le Mura di Malapaga

Reviewed By Mathieu B - Belfort, France

One of the best restaurants we got to eat at in Genova.
Very friendly and helpful service, guiding you in order to get optimum dishes. That's all clear here indeed, you'll probably end up with grilled meats, which are indeed fantastic: tender, well seasoned, all what you're running after.
Go there, you won't regret your 60€ bill for 2 persons including wine and starter.

Focaccia in Piazzetta

Reviewed By BIG_VINX - MILANO

Hands down the absolute best Cheese Focaccia I have ever had! My 5 Star rating is for them being one of the best "Focacceria" I've ever eaten at.
Not a huge selection, but what they've got is delicious. I love the old classic feel of this place. Not even close to fancy, but this place just gives you that feeling that they've been here forever, not because of their selection, or because of some amazing business smarts by the owners, but simply because make THE BEST CHEESE FOCACCIA IN RECCO!

Vizi & Virtu

Reviewed By Steven S - Pisa

This small, intimate post, a bit off the beaten path and away from the historical center (in San Martino) is worth whatever it takes to get you there to dine. The dishes are original, made with fantasy and genuine artistry. The primi (gnocchi, paste) are prepared to perfection, the pesto is unforgettable, the antipasti are unique and always changing. The marmalada di cipole served with the tagliata, the gnocchi a pesto, are just a few of the wonderful dishes. The owners and partners, from the kitchen to the bar, are full of genuine pride for their dishes and place with a youthful enthusiasm that makes you want to return. Not to be missed!

J'aime les Crepes

Reviewed By Damienkl2015 - London, United Kingdom

Charming place, huge variety of savour and sweet crepes. We chose one with ham, cheese, tomato and egg and the other one with fresh cheese. Crepes are preprepared, but the taste is still amazing. They are filled and heated in front of you. Will definitely advise to check the place for breakfast/lunch.

A Cabanetta De Cianderlin

Reviewed By marco_fGenova - genova

Andare alla Cabanetta è come fare un passo indietro nel tempo. Tutto è rimasto come un tempo, ci si tuffa nella Genova di una volta, con questa trattoria appena sopra la "crosa" che parte dal Santuario della Madonna del Monte, dal quale si gode un Panorama superlativo di Genova. Ci sono ancora i giochi da bocce ormai dimenticati, si entra in questo locale che è un autentico gioiello, con la stufa a ghisa a riscaldare membra e cuore. Una bella compagnia e la serata scorre via che è un piacere, non esiste un menu , pensa il gentile titolare a servire in tavola quello che viene preparato.
Cuculli, focaccette al formaggio, salame di sant'Olcese e testa in cassetta, torta di cipolle... la partenza è tosta, poi "addolcita" da un minestrone preparato come una volta, servito da una grande e capiente scodella. Poi si passa ai ravioli con il "tuccu", di secondo scegliamo la cima , saporita e preparata con tutti i crismi, assaggio anche uno spezzatino di carne morbida e molto buona. Unico neo (a me non è piaciuto , ma può essere un mio gusto personale) il sorbetto alla cannella, ma è un dettaglio da poco. Alla fine la sorpresa di un conto molto contenuto, uno dei motivi per cui il locale è sempre "sold out"... Bellissimo per cenare in gruppo. Marco di Genova
