7 months agoGreat first experience in a starred restaurant. Food was unbelievable! We had the classic menu, 5 courses picked by the chef (the last one is always a dessert). Amouse bouche really appreciated and some of them super tasty - my favorite was the pickled fennel! Focaccia was super soft and truly an helpful tool to do ‘scarpetta’. Tortellini with pesto was mind blowing too! A wonderful experience, the service was very attentive and explained every dish with all the details. My only side note is that the service was extremely slow, about 30 min in between courses, a bit too long in my opinion, considering the restaurant was almost empty. Also a backhoe music would be appreciated as it was super quiet inside and almost felt awkward to talk! Price is right for the experience- definitely worth it!

5 years agoBy far the best culinary experience I have had in Italy. The place was beautiful, right next to a window with a great view on the top floor. The staff could not be better, they were friendly and even though there was some limitations on the language it was still a great experience. The prices were not high for the quantity and quality. No doubt that I would come back here. If you are a tourist or local you must come and visit this place. I still cannot believe a paid 30eur for all these dishes.

4 months agoA little hard to find, making the overall experience a bit sad at the beginning. Once seated, the Michelin star experience lived up to the expectations. The wine pairing was amazing. The true honor to seasonal and Ligurian finds made for a special meal.

5 years agoGood food, great service, nice view. Fun to do a bit of food shopping after dinner. Very upscale market. Fine dinning restaurant. More so than Eataly or the restaurant on the ground floor. My second visit and I'd come back for a third.
