I visited this restaurant with my mum and dad who prefer quiet places. The place was half empty but for us was perfect. There is no English menu and staff doesn’t speak English so we had to be creative and use google translator to communicate. The staff tried their hardest to understand and generally we had a very good service. The tuna was very good!

Belong the staff very organized and very professional, make typical Ligurian dishes, I would dare say really good as the flour. really congratulations, very recommended
