Tucked away in a quiet piazza in central La Spezia, Formidable Griglieria is exactly what its name promises: a formidable experience. From the moment you walk in, the ambience strikes just the right balance of rustic Italian charm and modern warmth — candlelight, terracotta hues, gentle background music, and an atmosphere that says you’re in for something special

Food was unreal, some of the menu was not completely clear. I would go back 100% just cause of the food

The prices were great, and the pesto linguine and fruit cheesecake were excellent!

Formidable Griglieria is a small treasure in the city of La Spezia. We discovered it by luck and it was the best choice we have made since we came in this city. The food was excellent, very tasteful for all of us as we tasted more than one dish per person and every choice was magical. The service was more than excellent! People there are very gentle, really helpful and extremely quick. The location is perfect and you can make a reservation online easily. I give bonus to the fact that it serves later in the evening than others in the city. I will visit it again for sure!

Fabulous place - great food. Varied menu- very reasonably priced. Service excellent- will definitely return. Spotlessly clean and lots of room inside and out . Tacos lovely, blue crab very tasty and Argentinian steak delicious. Will try sister place amore too .

Incredible food - the Linguine with Blue Crab was one of the best dishes I've had during our European travels. Service was very friendly and accommodating. They also have a large selection of drinks available, including cocktails and spritzes.

Price / quality ratio was good, but steaks' quality which are supposed to be their strong point were not that great. Ambiance was not adequate with a young boy playing football nearby, hitting the ball loudly into a wall.

What a fantastic evening. The food was beautiful - our favourite being the octopus. The servers were attentive and kind. Tucked away in a quiet square in central La Spezia, this was such a magic find. Probably one of the best meals we’ve had in Europe yet!

The restaurant is located in a small piazza just off the main area, so quiet without lots of people walking past which was great . Food was very nice and it was good to have a choice between seafood and non-seafood meals. Service was attentive and friendly. Highly recommend
