The experience was amazing, we’ve had a really nice time here. We’ve ordered Salad for start, then we had Spaghetti with Mussels and Salmon with pistachios, and to sum up everything we had twice tiramisu - but one with pistachios. Everything was delicious, and we had a really wonderful time here. You have the nicest staff, very friendly We loved our time here, I can highly recommend this place

Grazie Ellio ! We had a great lunch with your great service! Our train was delayed and we came at the restaurant later than scheduled, hungry and tired - and we were welcomed by Ellio’s massive smile and attentive service ! We really enjoyed the seafood platter with aioli sauce. And special appreciation to the delicious Prosecco ! Not only we enjoyed the lunch, but we also were grateful to have TheFork discount. Even though there was a charge for the water we never had - this mistake will not deteriorate our whole experience.

We stop here for a lunch, we were visiting Genova and we passed by. Very nice location, with historical decorations. Friendly and nice staff. Very good food, freshly prepared. We had spaghetti with cozze and trofie Portofino. Both well cocked! Good job! Tasty sauces! I really recommend if you are nearby.
