Lovely waterfront outdoor dining with very good pizza and pasta selections. Service was excellent…read more Our experience was hampered by someone smoking on both sides of us . Would highly recommend otherwise for the food and people watching .

This restaurant is the REAL DEAL! My family and I were visiting Genoa for the day and decided to…read moretake a trip over to Portofino via cab. As we discussed food plans, our driver suggested eating in Santa Margherita as the food was better quality and better priced. We took his advice and stopped by a row of restaurants. When we asked for recommendations, he simply said "all are good." Pressed for time My brother made the quick decision for this place and we crossed our fingers and hoped it would be good. BOY, was the food BETTER than GOOD!! We tried the gnocchi w/ pesto, another pasta with pesto, two different spaghetti dishes, and the ravioli. Some of my family is vegan and vegetarian, and the food fit their needs. The ingredients were simple, yet fresh and flavorful. We ordered the house wine, and beer for my dad. We walked away paying 20€ a piece (4 people) and I was very pleased. Customer service was great. Although their was a language barrier, our server spoke English, and was very personable. He was even kind enough to give me a mini lesson on Speaking Italian. We dined al fresco and the view of the parks and ocean was beautiful. I've been home for weeks now, and we still have not stopped talking about this dining experience. Definitely one of the best food experiences of my trip. I would definitely recommend.

Portofino is a lovely small town. It's world-famous and gets lots of visitors. Because of Covid-19…read morethere were less people here than usual, but still plenty. Because of its fame and location the prices are on the higher side. And that's also the case here at this restaurant. It's close to the shore, but not directly (where the restaurants are worse). But it's located on the charming small street "Via Roma". Staff was really friendly and caring. The set-up is very nice, typical Italian feeling, but not cheesy. There are interesting items on the menu, wine by the glass or bottles. Since I was driving we took one glass of white wine each. Very good. We ordered the curry-style Gnocchi, mussels gratinated with tomatoes and cheese and the baby squid stew. All dishes were very good indeed. Gnocchi curry style sounds like an abomination to italian food, but was a great match. The mussels were fresh and plenty - very well priced this one. The squid were fresh as well, perfectly cooked and tender. But for 20 Euro on the upper end of the price list. You know when you visit Portofino that you will pay for it. If you are aware of that, then you will enjoy this town and this restaurant. Food was great. We paid 60 Euros. Of course you will pay less for the same in a countryside mom'n'pop Trattoria. But we enjoyed it nonetheless.

Great food and very good wine. Very casual and true Italian atmosphere. Great spot for lunch and…read morethey have outdoor seating. Close to sea, shops and many hotels within walking distance. Delicious and not expensive. Excellent salad options for vegetarians and of course plenty of fish on menu for pescatarians! Half litre of vino e solamemente 7 euros. Increibile! E buono. Very crowded on weekends in season, of course. Mista insalate e buono e anche i dolci. Il

Been in town for a few nights. Walked by this place several times and thought it looked good…read more Always busy as well - a good sign. Menu looked good, easy home-cooking dishes. Made a reservation for the evening and came here at 8.30pm. Somehow our reservation got lost, but they managed to find us a table anyway. Our Bulldog was welcome as well. Staff and owner were all very friendly and took care of us well. The place was full that night, but the meals came out quickly. Ordered a plate of cold meat and cheese and a plate of fried anchovies. The cheese and meat were of nice quality and good sized. Really nice were the anchovies. We liked the way they were prepared, had a similar dish in Calabria a few years ago. Love it. For the mains we ordered the fried seafood and a the Trofie Genovese. The fried seafood was good, but honestly we've had better before. The pasta on the other hand was very nice. Trofie are a nice kind of pasta, pretty heavy and filling. Great Pesto Genovese. A Tiramisu for dessert. And that one was very very good. It's easy to find Tiramisu. But hard to find really good ones. And this one here was great. Had a bottle of red wine with. Matched very well and good priced below 20 Euros. All items were priced very well, a night out here wont' break your budget. It was a pleasant dinner. Good, honest food. But was it the best food in town during our stay? No. But enjoyable and worth the money.

This has been our go to while staying in Santa Margarita. We have visited 3 times as of this review…read moreand every time has been amazing! The team here is very kinda and accommodating, service had been great! Highly recommend if you are in the area!
