Entering the restaurant, the cozy atmosphere welcomes me, with softly lit tables and the aroma of delicious food wafting through the air. Glancing at the menu, I'm excited to embark on a culinary adventure.For starters, I try the roasted veal tongue with Jerusalem artichokes, celery root, and pomegranate. The veal tongue is tender and tasty, blending perfectly with the earthy flavors of the artichokes and celery, while the pomegranate adds a refreshing kick.Next up, I dive into the potato cappuccino with lamb, chestnuts, and porcini mushrooms. The creamy soup is comforting, and the lamb adds a rich, savory touch that pairs well with the earthiness of the chestnuts and mushrooms.For pasta, I go for the smoked tagliolino with Zerli onion, rib sauce, and marinated egg yolk. The smoky flavor of the pasta is unique, and the sweetness of the onion and richness of the rib sauce make each bite delightful.Moving on to the main course, I indulge in the rabbit-filled agnolotti with saffron and licorice. The rabbit is tender and flavorful, and the saffron and licorice give the dish a hint of sweetness and spice.For dessert, I can't resist the TiramiCook, a twist on the classic tiramisu. It's creamy and indulgent, the perfect ending to a fantastic meal.Throughout the evening, the friendly staff pairs each course with wines that complement the flavors perfectly, adding to the overall enjoyment of the experience. As I leave the restaurant, I can't help but smile, knowing that I've had one of the best dining experiences of my life.

A wonderful evening surrounded by frescos and light strings playing in the background. ‘The Cook’ is an experience one has to partake in while visiting Genova, as the definitive culinary destination the city has to offer. Of particular interest is the Seafood menu, delicate and elegant. Cappuccino, the potato soup they offer as an entree stole my heart: it had the flavour of hard work by the sea. The game of textures and the visuality of these plates make for an incredible experience, although I must admit to not having been so impressed by the wine pairings offered: somehow they felt flat and safe, no bold combination, no surprises, just a simple pleasantry. They nail dessert with the assortment they offer to close the meal: the carrot is the most fun I had eating dolce and the surprise of how the carrots snaps when digging in with a spoon to reveal the white cream inside; it’s always great to feel like a child. I would love to point out the great staff that mans this restaurant, not just the chef, whom my partner and I met by chance the following day by the street of the city and he was so kind as to recommend a friend’s restaurant for lunch, but as well the gentlemen who we had the pleasure to be served by with great elegance and knowledge.

A piece of Gastronomy and one star Michelin to chefs name , in the Heart of Genoa Forget about the narrow alley with the constant smell of urine , this place takes you away from all that once you enter the doors . A magnificent dinning room , picturesque of Roman wall painting styles . A group of three visited this restaurant on a Saturday night booking reservation at 9.30 pm . With nine tables within the restaurant , i guess they were following 1 meter distancing . We agreed to try the tasing menu at 150 euros per head , with tasing wines to accompany the dishes on offer . Rather than to describe each dish , of this tasing menu on offer in July 2020 . I can describe those dishes we thought as a group were outstanding . 1/ scallop with apricot , cherries and spinach . 2/ Portraitof Raviolis with Burrata cheese 3/ Vitello tonnato - (tuna outstanding quality ) 4/ Ligurian cigars basil white chocolate and Taggiasca olives . The front house service was inventive , friendly and professional , also spoke english to a high standard .

Ieri sera hi cenato al The Cook con mia moglie. Era la prima volta in un ristorante stellato. Il servizio va più o meno bene, abbiamo lasciato anche la mancia al sommelier, abbiamo mangiato più o meno bene, ma... Io ho mangiato in trattorie e bettole di tutti i tipi, ma mai mi è successo di trovare un pezzo di plastica dentro una portata, invece nel ristorante stellato sì. E poi? Piatto cambiato dalla ragazza, ok, ma neanche una parola dallo chef. Neanche un caffè offerto (6 euro l'uno). Niente a parte il digestivo che però veniva offerto a tutti a prescindere. Quindi niente. Anzi...sul conto da 422 euro erano marcate 2 bottiglie di acqua da 5 euro l'una mentre invece ne era stata consumata solo una. Meno male che hanno tolto i 5 euro. Inoltre abbiamo preso un menù di carne e uno di pesce da 150euro l'uno con l'abbinamento dei vini da 50 euro l'uno. Abbiamo ricevuto, per tutte le portate, gli stessi vini. Sarà normale che su 7 portate di pesce si abbinino gli stessi vini che su 7 portate di carne? Boh... Secondo me ci hanno preso in giro. Totale 417 euro. Però siamo signori e abbiamo lasciato 10 euro al sommelier che è molto competente e appassionato. Forse anche sprecato. Delusione. Meglio andare a spendere 50 euro a testa dove 'ste cose non succedono. O almeno non le paghi 400! Un appunto sulla location: una sala affrescata da Bernardo Strozzi, bella ma gran parte degli affreschi avrebbero bisogno di un bel restauro perché sono praticamente invisibili. Il pavimento è composto da piastelle (anni '70?) inguardabili. Non capisco da dove sia uscita la stella Michelin. Vado da Arvigo tutta la vita!

Rispondo alla risposta del ristoratore: Lei dice il falso.

Le bottiglie d'acqua non erano 3, ma una sola frizzante. Ne sono state segnate 2, una delle quali è stata decurtata dal sommelier in fase di pagamento. Il conto era 422 euro costituiti da 1 menù mare 150€, 1 menù terra 150€, l'abbinamento vini sui due menù 50€ x 2 = 100€, 2 bottiglie d'acqua 5€ x 2 = 10€ e 2 caffè 6€ x2 =12€. Tot 422€ dai quali, come detto, è stata tolta una bottiglia d'acqua dopo la mia rimostranza. I vini sono stati gli stessi identici sia per me (menù terra) che per mia moglie (menù mare): Champagne per gli appetizer di benvenuto (uguali); il verdicchio di Matelica sia per i due antipasti di terra che per i due di mare; il vermentino sardo barricato sia per i due primi di terra che per i due di mare; il pinot nero sia per il due secondi di terra che per i due di mare. Per il dolce, per il quale evidentemente non era previsto un vino, ci siamo accontentati della poca acqua frizzante rimasta rifiutando alla richiesta del cameriere di portarne un'altra. Il digestivo è stato offerto a tutti i tavoli e il passito lo è stato sicuramente al tavolo a fianco al nostro e comunque non ci è stato detto che era un gesto di scuse, anzi alla mia domanda slla disponibilità dei digestivi, mi veniva risposto dal sommelier "amaro forte, amaro morbido o passito" . Riguardo al pezzo di plastica nel piatto, che già è grave anche a livelli molto più bassi, ci manchererebbe altro che il piatto non venisse sostituito senza averlo richiesto e che la cameriera non chiedesse scusa. Ma, soprattutto a questi livelli, ci si aspetta almeno una parola dallo chef, che non c'è stata. P. S. Ho fatto anche presente al sommelier che mi sarei aspettato una parola dallo chef e lui ha risposto che sicuramente sarebbe venuto. Invece ha fatto solo il classico giro dei tavoli dicendo a tutti la solita frase di rito "buonasera, tutto bene?" alla quale ovviamente ho risposto di sì. Per finire: Lei mi chiede a che scopo questa recensione. Forse non ha capito che Le ho dato 1/4 dello stipendio per trovarmi un pezzo di plastica in bocca e Lei non si è neanche degnato di chiedere scusa personalmente. Fossi stato da "Peppino lo sporcaccione", mi avrebbe offerto da bere tutta la sera con mille scuse. Per non parlare della presa in giro...
