Il Castagneto Hotel

Operating since 1971 and still under the same family management, they are a reliable address, a great classic if you are in the area. The ambience is well cared for, while the cuisine is solid. Alongside some local cues (battuta di fassona with fresh cheese or agnolotti with butter and sage), there are also seafood dishes (tuna tataki with coconut and soy sauce) and, in general, some contemporary touches, very evident in the pleasing presentations.

In the Valle Cervo lies a romantic retreat: La Bursch, a wonderful hamlet restored with great taste through the passion of an entire family and a vision of sustainable hospitality. Within it, the eponymous restaurant stands apart, among furnishings and fabrics gathered by the owners over a lifetime, soft lighting and a service of the warmest character, an atmosphere that is almost magical pervades the space.

An excellent restaurant situated less than five minutes from the town centre, Regallo has a contemporary decor with features that recall its former function as a factory.

In the building that once housed the Workers’ Mutual Aid Society, there now unfolds an elegant dining room, with large windows and classic furnishings, wrapped in a comfortable atmosphere that feels almost suspended in time. While the setting evokes an elegance of another era, the kitchen moves along calmly modern lines, with a clearly recognisable Mediterranean imprint. The menu alternates with balance between seafood dishes – such as amberjack marinated with curry, coconut and beetroot – and meat-based proposals, among which the partridge cooked on the bone with smoked parsnip, a date stuffe

Inside the Cantine Nervi, a contemporary restaurant where the kitchen is totally open, you can choose to eat on the large counter or at more classic tables. The young chef Matteo Piana delights in a contemporary and creative style. If it seems obvious that there is no lack of meat dishes, you will be pleasantly surprised by the presence of some incursions from the sea (try the raw tuna to dip in different tasty sauces, some of oriental inspiration). There is a good wine selection, naturally the house wines are the most represented: many also served by the glass.
