The lunch menu includes a series of Ligurian specialties based mainly on pesto: in addition to the classic Ligurian pesto we also serve its historical variables: the original 1863 version of Giovanni Ratto's recipe (the first codified, rich in garlic) to that of the exiles Genoese in Argentina in the famous Boca district, where a Ligurian recipe book was written and printed in Genoese, to that of our hinterland with prescinseua and marjoram).
There are then some second courses of poor fish, as per the tradition of Ligurian taverns.
In the evening we have a fixed menu based on Ligurian specialties always from our hinterland, our poor breads available in all their varieties: Testaroli, Testaieu and Panigacci PREPARED BY HAND BY US AND accompanied by: extra virgin olive oil and Grana Padano, porcini mushroom sauce from Albareto and Borgotaro, pesto, mushrooms, Ligurian cured meats and cheeses, all at a price of 21.99 euros including wine (one bottle for every two people) and... until you say enough, we continue to bring you our specialties!

We’ve created a place just for you – where you can enjoy the real, honest flavours of the past.
No frills, no fuss. Just good food and good vibes.
The menu? Simple. Generous. Delicious.
The service? Friendly. Straight to the point.
The prices? As low as possible – street food style (before it was cool).
Exactly how the Genovesi used to do it back in the day.
Perfect when you're hungry, in a hurry, and don’t want to break the bank.
Lunchtime is all about Ligurian classics, with pesto taking the spotlight.
We’ve got the classic green gold, sure –
but also some epic historic versions:
– the original 1863 recipe by Giovanni Ratto (super garlicky, be warned),
– the one brought over by Genovese exiles in Argentina, straight outta La Boca, where they even printed a Ligurian cookbook... in Genoese dialect!
– and the hinterland version with prescinseua (a soft cheese) and marjoram.
Of course, we throw in some humble fish mains too – Ligurian tavern-style, as it should be.
Dinner time?
Oh, we go all in.
We also offer a fixed menu featuring specialties from our rugged inland hills: our beloved "poor man’s breads" – Testaroli, Testaieu, and Panigacci – all handmade by us, served all-you-can-eat with:
– extra virgin olive oil & Grana Padano,
– porcini mushroom sauce from Albareto and Borgotaro,
– pesto, Ligurian cold cuts and cheeses,
– and just to break tradition a little... a sweet finish with Nutella (not ancient, but totally worth it).
All this for just €21.99
And the best part?
We keep serving until you wave the white flag.
IN SHORT: A TRUE LIGURIAN ALL-YOU-CAN-EAT FEAST – WITH LOCAL GOODNESS AND LOTS OF LOVE.
Come hungry – leave happy.
