7 di Picco Bar- Tavola Calda — Restaurant in La Spezia

Blown away! The food was EXCEPTIONAL but the Hospitality was unmatched. We were tired and hungry and looking for a place to eat, we stumbled in just before closing (not realizing they were about to close) and once we realized we politely said we did not want to keep them and we could go find food elsewhere, however the owner and her husband insisted we stay. The Chef had already left, but the Husband took over the kitchen and blew our minds with Dish after dish, they could have turned us away, they could have made us a quick dish and rushed us out, but no. The plates kept coming and coming, each one better and better, you could tell their passion was not only in their food, but their stories as well. If I could eat here everyday for the rest of my life I would. This couple deserves the world! They truly treated us like family and not just some random guests bothering them last minute...

A Hidden Gem – Warm Hospitality and Authentic Flavor

What a fantastic find! We dined at several places during our stay, and I only wish we had discovered this restaurant sooner. The atmosphere is inviting and warm, and as tourists, we felt genuinely welcomed by the incredibly friendly owners.

The dishes are made fresh daily using local ingredients, and it truly shows in the flavor. Prices were very reasonable, especially considering the quality and care that goes into each meal. I asked the chef to surprise me with a recommendation, and I was thoroughly impressed — every bite was delicious and authentic.

This place stands out far above the overpriced, bland spots we tried earlier. If you’re in the area, don’t miss out — this is a must-visit for anyone looking for a memorable, flavorful...

Wow, che bella esperienza. Ci siamo imbattuti in questo fantastico bar/caffetteria, ed eravamo così contenti di averlo fatto. I proprietari recenti sono fantastici. (Entrambi parlano inglese, una rarità da queste parti) e sono le persone più accoglienti ed educate con cui abbiamo avuto il privilegio di associarci. Le bevande erano fantastiche. Il proprietario è anche un esperto barista e un ospite eccezionale. Un nuovo posto preferito all'interno dei nostri viaggi. Accompagnati dai nostri drink c'erano alcuni fantastici abbinamenti dei loro cibi quotidiani fatti in casa. Dai crostini fatti in casa, melanzane, olive e patate alla torta di spaghetti, sono stati senza dubbio alcuni dei migliori piatti che abbiamo mangiato durante la nostra visita. Se non li hai provati, non perdere un altro giorno. Cibo, bevande e servizio senza dubbio 6 stelle.

Wow, what a great experience. We kind of stumbled into this great cafe/bar, and we were so glad we did. The recent owners are amazing. (Both speak English, a rarity in these parts) and are utmost the most welcoming and polite people we've had the privilege to associate with. The drinks were amazing. The owner is also master bar tender and an exceptional host. A new favorite spot within of our travels. Accompanied by our drinks were some amazing pairings of their daily homemade foods. From homemade croutons, eggplant, olives, and potatoes to the spaghetti pie, was hands down some of the best eats we've had during our visit. If you haven't given them a try, don't miss another day. Food, drinks, and service hands down 6 stars....
