Ristorante del Pescatore

What a great experience! Me and my family we spent 3 days in Porto Venere. Find a place where you could eat good food and have good service was not that easy. We were very surprised how all the restaurant on the water closer to the church ( which is where all the tourist go first ) lacked of quality. We tried a few and were not happy. Then, we found Ristorante Pescatore and things got much much better. An amazing service from the actual owner and his lovely employee who went extra miles to make sure our night would have been great , absolute fresh delicious perfectly cooked food and not too expensive. These guys deserve all the support from all the people coming to Porto Venere as they are the very few that put a great effort. It was my mum birthday and at the end they came to the table with a candle on dessert and did sing a song too. My mum was so happy and so was I.I highly recommend this place to any person for dinner or even lunch if they are open.Thanks again for the best food so far in Porto Venere.

Seafood pasta and linguine prawn were so delicious. Comfortable environment and nice atmosphere with good view and good service. will come back again if u ever got a chance.

Delicious quaint place with fabulous service! Highly recommend the linguine with clams and fried mixed seafood. The catch of the day (seabass) was also cooked to perfection. My husband and I came two nights in a row because it was soooo good. The ambiance is perfect for the city of portoverene, and the service was phenomenal! Grazie to this amazing place and such a special city!

We went to this restaurant around the corner from our hotel after trying to book other places, and we were pleasantly surprised - so much so that we went back the next night and ordered the same pasta.The restaurant was not overly full, so I was a bit concerned, but they seem to do a lot of take out meals. The waiter was charming and kind and our meals came out quickly. I would recommend anything made with the local pesto - it’s the best I’ve ever had. The highlight was the special which we ordered the second night as well - it was a pesto linguine with langoustines. I felt like I could eat it every day and never get sick of it!

This address was advised to us by residents of La Spezia, definitely a good tip. Fresh, simple dishes, elegant presentation and fluid service in a spacious room over the bay. The 12 pesto lasagna was the best I've had and you can share antipasti and contorni to try various flavors. You'll be all fueled up to walk up the Porto Venere stairs and hills, piling delight upon pleasure!

We were greeted with a friendly welcome followed by some of the most delicious food we have had in Italy. The atmosphere is very inviting and the view was just as great. Definitely make this restaurant a must go to if visiting here.

After touring around Italy for 7 days, this is by far the best restaurant we have been to. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. The service and the food is phenomenal!! Forget about fine dining, if you’re in Italy looking for authentic good food, give this place a try, you wont regret it. We came here two nights in a row… enough said!

Buonisimo ! The food was excellent i recommend you to take the pasta alla crema de nocci and the pesto lasagna amazing !!
