    I'm giving this place a 5 star because the pasta was made in the house. The shrimps were extremely…read morefresh. The pasta was not too oily and / or too salty and not loaded with sauce. The pasta alla Genovese was aromatic and tasted superb! We also ordered fish of the day ( Fresh Baked seabass with potatoes , olives and pinioli) it was full of flavors, served on its own broth! This is my kind of place to go to, where the locals eat , and everything gets prepared after you order. And the big plus is we got the best server Diana!

    Went here for dinner last night and loved it :-)) it's a bit tricky to find this place however,…read moreonce you get there it's a really nice local place with, menus that have English descriptions if needed and, staff that can manage ok English and willing to explain in the best way possible the menu. Their food is typical Ligurian style with local classics and lots of options for pasta, fish and meat. I wanted good seafood so, I ordered the local fish stewed in a tomato gravy with olives. This is a huge dish and takes about 30 mins to prepare and, enough for two people to share :-)) at €17 for this main, it's the best fish I have had in a long time. It's a dish made with mussels, prawns, scampi, sardines, cod and couple of other local fish I don't know the names of. Caution : if you don't like bones then don't order this dish ;-)) I even ate the prawns in their shell as it was a thin edible shell. Many people don't like this but, this type of prawn should be eaten whole without peeling :-))) For dessert I had a fabulous milk based cake with a strawberry jus. All in all a fabulous meal and the place was packed outside with no tables free for the evening. Prices are very reasonable and I would have paid almost twice that for the same food in France or Germany :-) If you want good local Genoa cooking with some decent local wines then check this place out. For service and friendliness it gets 5 stars :-))

    Oh my lord, this is the best pesto pasta I've ever had. The texture? Perfectly al dente. The sauce?…read moreEarthy, nutty, smooth, and creamy all in one. I regret not ordering a second serving. We also tried their special of the day which translated to "nut pasta" but essentially was a cacio e pepe with pine nuts, amazing, but can not compare to the pesto pasta. If you come here, expect a wait because this place is loved by tourists and locals. I'd recommend any pasta dish because it's all homemade and seasoned so well. Their other offerings are average, nothing to note as a recommendation.

    If you happen to be staying someplace outside of Genoa's historical district, you might feel…read moreslightly unsafe walking through the graffiti covered alleys and streets that you'll have to navigate to get to Trattoria Ugo, but don't be decived by appearances - the area is actually quite safe, and there are quite a number of well-hidden but excellent restaurants. Trattoria Ugo is a completely legit and ultra-authentic eatery with a clientele that's more than 90 precent locals - that's how good the food is! The food here is nothing short of amazing and the portion sizes are so generous that it's almost impossible to go away hungry :-) Everything on the menu is wonderful, but I highly recommend the pasta with pesto. There's also a surprisingly broad wine list, and their house wine is very good, and really inexpensive - it pairs very nicely with the pesto. Water (both sparlking and still) is complimentary, and the service is outstanding - you'll have an incredible meal here! Tip: The portion sizes being as large as they are, I strongly suggest you pick either one primo or one secondo; if you get both it will be very difficult to finish.
