Great concept with amazing food. Instead of an a la carte menu the chef comes to your table to talk…read moreto you about what he has ingredients for that night and puts together a menu for the table based on what people like and don't like. It is primarily a seafood restaurant but he does have great options for people that prefer something else. The food is served family style and you don't need to worry about going hungry. Try as we may, we couldn't finish it all, and we had a good sized group of mostly hungry guys! The seafood is fresh. I'd swear he pulled the shrimp from the sea minutes before we ordered. (Spectacular raw shrimp dish. I've never had shrimp like that and it was amazing!) The chef is very personable and has a great presence at the table as he goes over your options for the evening and goes out of his way to make everyone feel comfortable and welcome. Besides Italian, he speaks fluent English and I heard him speaking French with another table. The rest of the staff were all very friendly and efficient. Overall I was thrilled with my experience here! I highly recommend it if you are in Imperia and I will definitely go back!

Could, would and have eaten here every night while on vacation. First place I ever had: calamari,…read morerisotto and spaghetti a la vongole and now it's the gold standard for all across the world. A wonderful traditional staple in Imperial. Moral of this review - go, go every night of your vacation.
