I had a hankering for meatballs, and we stopped by after seeing them on the menu. The meatballs were delicious! They came with a heaping amount of sauce for dipping. We also had pasta & wine. Everything was tasty and came out hot. If you're looking for a great meal in Riomaggiore this is it! Service was great. The food does take a time to come out but remember, this is not fast food-it's good food! read more

I will start to say that the Octopus salad and carbonara we had were excellent. This place offered the best meal we had in Cinque Terra over the 5 nights we were there. The negative would be the experience. You are packed in there like sardines. May remove a few tables so that you're not sitting in other peoples space. Which leads me to why the low rating. The staff was very jovial with us at the beginning and we were having a good time. Then, just as the server was placing our pasta dish down, I said grazia! The server thought I said gracias and decided to openly correct my pronunciation, embarrassing me amongst other Europeans (i'm American) sitting basically in our lap. He outwardly embarrassing me where others could hear ruined my dinner. He made me cry and couldn't understand why the change in my personality. Sorry, but there's a time and place to correct; however, as your customer is about to enjoy the food you made, you wait. When my husband went to pay, they asked if everything was alright, my husband explained what had happened and the man decided to say, "well i know i like to be corrected". I don't mind be corrected, but not in the manner/time in which he chose to do it, with wall to wall people to hear it. How bout next time you reserve your correction and just do your job well and make it a positive experience as it started out. We would have gone there every night for that octopus salad and to try other items. The food on everyone's table looked amazing. Just bad server. read more

Arrived in Monterosso around 2pm and was looking for a place to eat. Many restaurants are closed between their lunch service and dinner service. This was one of the only restaurants we found that were open for dining. We ordered off the daily special menu - meat lasagna and spaghetti with mussels. Both were tasty. My husband mentioned his lasagna was hard/had "a crunch on top" that he didn't quite like. I loved the mussels in my dish. The staff were ok. The lady that greeted us told us we couldn't be seated outside facing the main road because there were only 2 of us. I'm pretty sure that I saw other outdoor tables with only 2 guests. Oh well, got a restaurant to be open when we needed deserves a 4 star review, read more

One of our favorite meals during our recent Italy trip! We didn't have reservations, but walked over shortly before they opened and asked if we could make one for our party of 2, luckily they were able to squeeze us in at opening. We were seated promptly indoors (if you want to sit outside you have to ask for an outdoor table when making reservation), our waitress took our order pretty quickly and we were left to wait and people watch. The manner of the wait staff was definitely more blunt than other establishments we visited, however I wouldn't necessarily portray that as being rude. They have limited waitstaff and try to be efficient, I respect that. We split the Gorgonzola gnocchi with pistachio and a sea bass fillet. Both were delicious, I have never had Gorgonzola gnocchi before, let alone with pistachio. The added crunch from the nuts was great to the typical chewy gnocchi texture. The sea bass was cooked perfectly as well. We finished the meal off with a tiramisu I which was also tasty. I would definitely come back on a future visit. read more

Service was really good and people very nice. Gnocchi was also very good. Close to port and easy walk to train and good eats.

Best dinner we had in Riomaggiore. Tasty local fare with attentive staff. I enjoyed the clam pasta and my wife had pasta with mussels. Both were lovely and we discovered the local Possa Triple A Bianco wine. read more

Excellent food and even better service! We walked in after 2:00pm on our first day and had a delicious meal. We spent four days in the area and ate at other places for lunch but would return to this place at night because we knew we'd get a delicious meal and a friendly welcome. The pizzas are great. We had the pasta with mussels, the pesto pasta, the pasta with clams and some other dishes. All were excellent. The people working there are very nice and friendly. We'll be back if in the area again! read more

Literally came here two nights in a row. Not only does it stay open later than most restaurants on the street but the food is absolutely amazing! First Night: house red wine (loveeee), meatballs, gorgonzola and pistachio gnocchi, lemon cake 2nd night: salami hot pizza, lasagna, cheese and fig plate and house red wine! Seriously everything on this menu is great! read more

Stopped in for lunch to order a pizza and it was very average. The dough was great, but the sauce and cheese was pretty bland. Also, the pizza doesn't come cut, what am I supposed to do? Start biting into the whole pizza? lol The sauce and cheese rip unevenly and make a mess when you try to just tear it apart... read more

Thank you Elena for the hospitality and thank you to the entire people of this establishment for making such a memorable experience. I'll never forget this meal as one of the best I've had in Italy. If you think you've had good fish, think twice before coming here. Prices are amazing for cinque terre. The potatoes are perfectly crispy on outside and soft. Greens are fresh and no dressing needed. Menu has a great variety of options. Located at top of the Main Street, it's worth the short hike. You won't regret it. read more

Food was ok but what really was disappointing was the staff. Everyone we interacted with (and it was several) looked like they wanted to be anywhere else than working here. Not a single smile, not a single attempt to communicate and it was the first time I have ever eaten at a restaurant where not a single employee spoke to me. Even our server managed to take our order (with a frown) without uttering a word. read more

I LOVED this restaurant so much that me and my wife went TWICE! I cannot thank the staff at Da Dulin enough for the friendly service (Meagan was so lovely, friendly and kind) local wine, delicious pasta and great times! They made my birthday feel very special and I really enjoyed all the pasta dishes. My only regret was that we were unable to try their other location in La Spezia Cantieri (Cordorniz cavour 22, 338-84-18-175). Thank you Da Dulin!! read more

Amazing food and staff. Have their limoncello spritz!

Absolutely the worst experience of my holiday - DO NOT RECOMMEND EVER! After being promised a dish that never existed, served starters and mains at the same time, my husband waiting 50min between his first course and the 3 after (tasting menu) that then came all at once after 3 chasers and the waiters didn't even know what he was supposed to have as part of the menu, I was then insulted by the front door person who said my asking to remove the deserts from the bill (deserts that never came!) was absolutely unreasonable and she didn't understand my disappointment at all. Some people just should not be dealing directly with customers. read more
