The people here care about your experience and they go all the way to make sure you have the best meal and experience possible. Then there is the fact that you are dinning in a 13th century building in a town that dates back to the year 100 b.c. when it was a Roman fishing village. Now it is home to colorful buildings and fine dining at Torre. The food was amazing, and seriously...THE BEST Tiramisu of my life. The guys that run this place are super nice as long as you follow one easy rule...be chill and take the time to slow down and live the way the Italians do. Viva la Vita is the way to go. The seafood...fresh and delicious. The wine...Italian and delicious. The views...breath taking. The sounds...soothing. The rest is up to you. I Love you Italy...grazie mille!

Wow the location and view here were stunning and worth a visit alone. The small outside seats on…read morethe edge of the restaurant in particular have a great view of the sea at the base of the old church that is the main attraction in Portovenere. Service was mildly unfriendly and inattentive, but we got what we needed. We liked the foccacia bread, which was really crisp and oily in a good, rich kind of way. The octopus and potato salad was also great, with big pieces of really tender octopus and fresh herbs. I also got a foccacia sandwich that was billed in the English translation as having salad greens and ham - in reality it had maybe one piece of bland lettuce and some deli meat. So maybe don't order that. Otherwise a great experience!

All were good, bread came out after food, there were breadsticks on the table and it's 1,70 Euro for each person to sit at the table. The table vino is white sparkling wine and it was good as well, everything was good - not great but in the solid good category. It appears they have a white wine sangria which we didn't try but would have and you can order chips (potato) and nuts for the table. Our waitress spoke no English but the owner was there and he does. We sat at 6pm and ate and left by 6:45 so fast service for us tonight which was great because we needed to hit the local store. I ordered water, but waitress either didn't understand or didn't bring it. They also offer gelato and lots of drinks
