Authentic and homey styled food. Well seasoned and delicious. A little off the road trattoria that will fill your belly!

Cucina casalinga, verace e saporita, come nelle trattorie di una volta, quelle scomparse con le mezze stagioni. Piatti generosi e prezzi onesti. Servizio amichevole e accoglienza calorosa. Siamo arrivati un sabato dopo le due del pomeriggio e ci hanno accolto senza fare una piega. Un antipasto da dividere in tre (più che sufficiente) e dei tagliolini ai funghi, tutto condito da un delicato sole autunnale sotto il pergolato e un dignitoso dolcetto. Acqua e caffè, in totale poco più di 20 euro a testa. Siete a 10 minuti da Noli o da Final Borgo, nel bel mezzo dell'altopiano delle Manie... cosa chiedere di più? Insomma un'esperienza da ripetere sicuramente!

Trattoria storica della zona, posto tranquillo e con temperature più fresche rispetto al mare. Servizio rapido e cortese. Cibo buono, stile trattoria, come anche i prezzi, piuttosto contenuti. Lo spazio esterno è molto grande e può ospitare anche tavolate importanti. Una bella serata.

Best Tiramisu I have ever eaten! Everything is handmade and just tastes great!!!

Quick stop for coffee, cheap prices. Staff took us in even though the place wasn’t supposed to be open yet.

Nice place, several tables in a shade. The menu consists of Italian inland fare (I.e. no fish/seafood) and what we had tasted great! The waiter was very kind. Recommended as a place away from hustle and bustle of the seaside.

This place has been there forever, I think the first time I went there I was a young boy, 50 years ago. It’s a basic place, charming inside an old church, and they make basically the same few dishes since then (homemade ravioli or tagliolini with choice of pesto, wild boar ragu or tomatoless ragu as pastas, Ligurian rabbit, brasato or chicken as second dish with either French fries or salad) but everything is like made by an Italian grandmother, delicious, simple and tasty. The wine is also local. The homemade desserts (tiramisu and bitter orange crostata) were superb. We ate like two pigs and the bill (even if a bit more expensive since the pandemic) was veeery reasonable. A must if you are in that area!
