This unexpected Ligurian gem is situated in Trucco, a small village in the Val Roia just inland from Ventimiglia. There’s no à la carte here, just the “Orto e Mare” tasting menu to which guests can also add a meat dish and a selection of cheeses from the well-stocked cheese trolley. Although the dishes are occasionally influenced by Ligurian traditions, they are for the most part creative, surprising and beautifully prepared. Given its success, the restaurant has recently been extended while at the same time retaining its simple, colourful and welcoming ambience. The high-quality service comes

Not far from the picturesque village of Pigna, this family-run hotel-restaurant has a simple, classic-style dining room where the main focus is on the equally simple and rustic cuisine, including the dish of goats’ meat and beans, a local speciality.

In the most evocative heart of Ventimiglia, the restaurant looks out over a graceful pedestrian square where, in the warmer months, a small outdoor area welcomes guests to the slow rhythm of the old town. Inside, the intimate dining room, with its classic décor, exudes a discreet warmth, made up of traditional details and an atmosphere that invites guests to linger.

Fish and seafood take pride of place here (especially raw fish dishes), served with classic, seasonal accompaniments, as well as snacks, while an oyster bar is an added attraction. Although the best tables are in the glass-fronted veranda ove

The dining rooms in this lively, typical restaurant in the upper, historic part of Bordighera appear to be almost dug out of the rock. Here, a local chef with plenty of experience behind him creates predominantly Ligurian cuisine (and not just fish and seafood), accompanied by an excellent and extensive wine list, including labels from outside Italy and a good selection of champagnes. Attentive service completes the picture here.

Situated in a private beach club facing the sea, this restaurant combines a relaxed atmosphere with an elegant feel thanks to its professional owners who have worked as restaurateurs for many years. Here, they serve excellent fish and seafood cuisine with a focus on raw dishes, plus a choice of daily fish specials. A selection of interesting local wines completes the picture.
