B&B Il Leone Bianco

Situated just beyond the centre of Albenga in a beautiful location right on the beach (with only a small private beach club separating it from the sea), this restaurant has been in business for over 20 years (10 years on this site, and 10 in the town centre before that). It is renowned for its excellent, modern cuisine that focuses on top-quality, fresh and seasonal fish. A lighter (yet equally excellent) menu is also available at lunchtime.

This restaurant boasts a garden setting with a pleasant outdoor dining space, plus a long, narrow interior decorated in decidedly classic style. Fish and seafood take pride of place on the menu, with a focus on local fish, including excellent tartare (usually either seabream or tuna, depending on the catch of the day) and shellfish (cooked in salt, baked or grilled). The vegetables are sourced from the restaurant’s own kitchen garden.
