Best places: Food & Drinks in Genoa, Italy

👍👍 I am not one to write reviews but I had to after visiting sandwich shop, was pleasured in meeting the owner who is an expert in sandwich making and flavour combination. For someone who does not speak Italian, I was a little worried as it slowly came to my turn in the que. The owner who speaks Englis...

👍👍 We would highly recommend Da I Ricci Trattoria. Located in the heart of the historical Genova in a very small street, you’ll enjoy the food and the coffee. Sonia and her team are really warm and cheerful. The good is great (pesto homemade, pasta al dente, fish from the day…)and for 12€ the menu per...

Beef, chicken & seafood burgers with toppings like truffle sauce & gorgonzola, plus veggie patties.

👍 We came here to try some particular flavors like rose for example. Well, I obviously a big fan of very particular flavors but for sure not the ones with flowers taste. We tried rose and violet flavors and decided to take more classical flavors. The portion of ice cream was big even though we took a...

Informal Mediterranean establishment specializing in seafood & pasta dishes, plus craft beers.

Relaxed Italian restaurant serving seasonal dishes made from artisanal or locally sourced produce.

👍👍 The best Panera in Genoa, absolutely must try the espresso with Panera and the Rolli semifreddo! Highly recommended!

Warm, narrow restaurant serving Ligurian cuisine from breakfast to seafood & wine.

Pesto lasagne, fried seafood & other traditional Genoese dishes in a no-frills trattoria.

🫤 We arrived in Genoa on saturday and were looking for a place to have dinner. We chose this place because it had really good reviews but after all it was a disappointing experience. Our table was squeezed right next to the door, giving us a hurried vibe. The staff recognised us as tourists and theref...

👍👍 Authentic old school Italian bar run by a lovely old couple. Mostly attended by uni students on Fri and Sat night. The only place in town where you should taste Asinello and basil liquor. Absolutely a must in your pub crawling bar list!

Typical dishes such as housemade pastas served in a rustic spot with a vaulted, brick-lined ceiling.

👍👍 The best pistachio ice cream I have ever tasted! Under the name of CREMINO ARABICO, is not only an ice cream, is rainbows 🌈 on your tongue! Amazing, fabulous, crazy good ice cream 🍦!!!

😠 This is probably the WORST restaurant I have ever been to. There was no love in anything that they did, starting with the copied print outs of the menu, that was handwritten, filled with crossed out items and barely legible. We had a reservation at the big table. That was right in front of the kitch...

Intimate stop for regional farinata pancakes, cheesy focaccia & creative pizzas.

👍👍 After a long and exhausting journey we arrived in Genoa hungry today. I immediately noticed this small but very pretty restaurant, which I saw many locals order there. A good first sign. I ordered the vegetarian Pizza Italia with pomodore, burrata and pesto for around 8€, which I think is a very...

👍👍 This is one of the best pasticcerias I’ve been to, and will always come here every time I’m in Genova visiting family. The pastries are always delicious and so fresh, and the coffee is as well. The service is great too!

👍👍 I had dinner at Luca's and the food was absolutely great. The food quality is amazing and can be directly felt from the first bite. I recommend the Baciccia and the Chili made by Luca's the owner himself. On top of the amazing food (and beer 🍻) Luca was genuinely nice, helpful, and welcoming. He ca...

Artisan burgers, pizza & US craft beers at a cool joint with a rock soundtrack & an industrial feel.

👍👍 Very good local restaurant. I recommend. Upstairs can get noisy if full.
