The food was amazing. However, beware the staff likes to sneak in charges to tourists, the waiter kept offering me a glass of water but when I asked how much he said, 8€. Why offer it then? The price for the drinks is outrageous since my friends paid 13€ for one aperol and it wasn’t very good and their orange juice costs 12€. I would come back only because the food and views are good. Finally, I read in the previous reviews they charge a hidden fee but it didn’t happen to us, they only charged us 3.75€ for the service charge (coperto). If you go make sure to check the bill before you pay.

The experience of visiting the restaurant was unparalleled! Delicious food, especially nice house wine, and excellent service. I would like to note that ravioli with spinach and ricotta impress with their incredible tenderness, and the portion turned out to be very large. It was a real gastronomic pleasure that complemented our evening. Special thanks to our waitress for her attention and professionalism. Although the prices are a bit higher, the overall experience is worth every penny. Thank you very much for a wonderful evening!

AVOID this restaurant at all cost! If Google would allow me to give an overall rating of 1 - I would! This is probably my first negative review - based on how we were treated! We had an hour to kill, before we boarded our boat back to Rapallo and we were looking to sit, relax, get a drink and soak in the views for 1 last time. In general, almost all these seaside restaurants are aversive to customers with kids or large families and we were both - 8 in the group with 3 kids (2 in strollers)! They come running and say 'reserved' even when there are plenty of vacant seats (pictured). This restaurant was the same and then some! 1 waiter reluctantly let my sister in law and her kid and my mother in law sit. Just when they were settling down, the other waiter, came and literally chased them away, with some rude tone/words in Italian! You read it right. The stroller was folded and tucked away. Kid didn't even need a high-chair. Needless to say, we took our business elsewhere...where we had a pleasant time and were treated respectfully.

Ecco un riassunto della nostra esperienza in questo ristorante mediocre (come turisti che hanno visitato oltre 30 ristoranti in Italia durante il nostro soggiorno). 1) Io e il mio compagno abbiamo ordinato due piatti di pasta (ravioli e penne) per 24 euro a piatto. Quando sono arrivati i nostri piatti, le porzioni erano minuscole (ho contato solo 15 ravioli). 2) Prima di lamentarmi ho chiesto al proprietario e al cameriere se fosse possibile avere una porzione più grande considerando i 24 euro per questo piatto minuscolo... che ha rifiutato. 3) Una volta finito il pasto ci è arrivato il conto di 74 euro per 2 piatti di pasta e mezza bottiglia di Chianti (base) (più 15% di tassa di soggiorno)... carissimo! 4) Per la seconda volta ho chiesto al proprietario di rivedere il suo prezzo perché non aveva senso... cosa che ha rifiutato. 5) Il proprietario è stato molto arrogante e mi ha insultato in italiano... Siamo arrivati al punto di spingerci a vicenda man mano che la discussione si inaspriva. Da notare che il proprietario non parla francese, spagnolo o inglese... il che è strano per un gestore dove il 95% dei suoi clienti parla queste tre lingue. Insomma non andate in questo ristorante perché avrete piatti minuscoli e conti considerevoli rispetto alla quantità e qualità dei piatti...e che dire del servizio. P.S Nota per il proprietario: ho tradotto questo testo in italiano per adattarlo al tuo livello intellettuale

After seeing all the bad reviews about this place and considering the experience I just had a couple hours ago, I feel obliged to weigh in. I’m giving this place five stars. Disclaimer: I only ordered a glass of wine here, no food. The service was good. They took my order within seconds of me sitting down and brought the wine fairly quickly. And look at the complimentary snacks that came with the wine! What’s not to like about this place?

Une vue magnifique sur le port de Portofino mérite 1 étoile, mais un service catastrophique. Premièrement nous avions choisi une table au soleil, lorsque nous demandons au serveur s'il était possible d'ouvrir le parasol il refuse car sinon il doit tous les ouvrir et cela n'est pas joli. On nous déplace donc à une table à l'ombre, soit pourquoi pas ! C'était sans compter sur le patron qui nous déplace 10 minutes après car la table était pas au bon endroit... Même pas un "merci ou svp". Ensuite, nous venions de nous asseoir, le serveur nous demande ce que l'ont veut boire, on lui explique qu'on a pas encore choisi et il nous fait comprendre qu'il faut se dépêcher... Plusieurs personnes se sont vu refuser une table à l'ombre car elles souhaitaient juste boire un verre et non manger. Lorsque nous avons reçu nos boissons, pas d'apéritif alors que la plupart des clients avaient des gâteaux apéritifs servis avec leurs verres... Est ce car nous avons demandé de changer de table ? Le repas était bon, d'où ma deuxième étoile mais très cher ! 70 euros à 2 sans prendre de dessert Verre de vin à 10 euros, bouteille d'eau à 7.50 euros. En conclusion, si vous ne voulez pas avoir le sentiment de vous être fait arnaquer, passez votre chemin
