    Trofie Al Pesto - regional pasta of Liguria - add the fresh burrata
    Leanh E.

    Another great place to eat if you are site seeing and you miss the afternoon lunch window of 12-2pm, traditionally in Italy and France. We were just waking along the Historico Centro and could smell the fantastic aroma coming from the restaurant. We noticed that there were patrons outside eating, so we decided to ask for a table for two. The wait staff was friendly and helped me improve on my Italian, which was fun and helpful. Both the fish and cheese stuffed ravioli and the house made trofetti pasta with pesto and fresh burrata was absolutely divine. Get the house wine, you won't be disappointed. This meal made my daughter and I trying to figure out how we could sneak this restaurant in another day during our stay.

    Do NOT sleep on this restaurant because there are more reviews under Google compared to Yelp! This place is only a short walk away from the city center De Ferrari metro stop. We did not have much time and was also not looking to spend over $15 for pasta so we gave this place a shot. Google Maps led us through sketchy alleyways but it paid off because this place had the best carbonara we had during our two week stay in Europe... yes, I ordered carbonara almost at every restaurant we stopped at to compare The noodles was perfect al dente. The carbonara sauce was so creamy and eggy. The pork pieces were crispy and not too salty. You even have the option to upgrade your order to a larger size! Which in retrospect I wished I did. The picture is the regular serving. At the time of this post, the price was like $7-9? But the taste of the carbonara was more than that. Please give Pasta Street a go and take the time walking there from the city center!!

    Was in Genoa for only a couple hours and looking for a place for lunch. Don't let the name fool you, the food was fantastic and staff very friendly. Weather was nice, so sat outside which offered a good view for people watching.

    Great food, great service, and enjoyed people watching after a long day of traveling. Outside seating area is shaded, which was nice!

    Good pasta done with a little flair. The order of serving was a little unorthodox but the kids were happy

    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.

    pretty good pasta restaurant. you pick your pasta type and then your sauce and there were a lot of…read moredifferent pastas and sauces, so it is likely that everyone will be able to find a combination that they will like. we got the meat filled ravioli with carbonara sauce, gnocchi with the mushroom and cream sauce, and the mushroom filled tortellini and they were all very tasty. both the gnocchi and ravioli servings were very large but the tortellini serving was definitely a bit smaller but still decent. the bread is free as well. the service was good and it didn't take long for us to get our food. the restaurant isn't huge so if it is busy it might be hard to get a table but we didn't have any problems on a Saturday night at 7:30pm. there is a cover but it is only 1.50 euros per person. while it is not the best italian food you will ever have, it is definitely a good option if you don't want to break the bank but still get some good authentic Italian food while in Genoa.

    Genova is known for their pesto, so we came to this little local spot to try their pesto. I got…read moresimple noodles with pesto, the boyfriend got mushroom tortellini with pesto, and the friend got beef (or shredded pork we aren't sure) ravioli with pesto. Though they didn't speak any English their ordering system was simple: choose your noodle, then your sauce, and voila! They served the food with soft dipping bread. The service was fast. The food was outstanding. The price was VERY inexpensive. The only thing you have to watch out for is water cost money in Europe even though tap water is potable. They sell you bottled water at a cost (and I'm not sure every place recycles). Most places beer and soda are cheaper than water. Thus, I got beer! Having had a long drive and wanting to get back to the AirBnB this place was a perfect location with the perfect menu for an outstanding price!
