A tiny gem in the historic center, just steps from the San Michele towers. A very intimate setting, with a refined yet informal atmosphere. The cuisine? Seafood with a seasonal twist, including standouts such as the surprising Brandapolenta: creamy baccala, crispy polenta, taggiasca olive pâté. Reserving a table – especially for outdoor seating – is a must!
Hidden down an alleyway in the town centre, this friendly trattoria boasts an attractive ceiling with exposed brickwork. An excellent address for fans of Ligurian cuisine, fish and seafood. House desserts include sour orange semifreddo.
