Fresh seafood, great service with a wonderful menu. Must get the seafood salad and gnocchi. Staff very accommodating to our dietary needs. Delicious local wine. It's all good!

Decent food, nice and quick service. A hidden gem in Monterosso al mare. We especially liked the home made deserts, felt like at home.

We were recommended to this restaurant by a local, and we quickly saw why. Homemade pastas, sauce, etc. with great service and fair prices!

solid dining experience. we ordered the seafood risotto,without shrimp and dairy, because of allergies. the chef added additional fish to balance the flavors as he was cooking our dish to order. it was served in the pot, which was brought to the table. the veggie sides were nothing special, nor was dessert, but the perfect risotto was star. lovely vibe...

The best minestrone soup I have ever had. Went back for lunch three times. Good house red and meat ravioli in a tomato sauce.

I liked it very much. Typical, warm, the staff was friendly, the food perfect. Try the acchuga! There's not much of a view there on daytime, but at night it turns cozy and warm.
