The decor was amazing with originals frescos from the 15-16th century but the star was the food which was both interesting and delicious. The staff were friendly and super helpful. You’ll definitely want to come just for their pesto.

The service was very attentive, but the food was unfortunately very disappointing, especially not at Michelin level. Some of the fish dishes were too fishy and some dishes on the meat menu were oversalted. No finesse in the dishes, sometimes the same base is used for different menus.

Beware of wine recommendations that skew towards overpriced Tuscans. There is a huge selection of great Italian wines that are very well priced.

Beautiful venue and beautiful looking food. Whilst the presentation of the food was immaculate it lacked flavour. Staff were lovely and accommodating but I would not say the service was up there with other starred establishments. Worth a visit for the exquisite surroundings.

The service was amazing and the focaccia was fantastic. The two meat dishes of the chef's tasting had way too much salt and the second meat dish was tough. Definitely not the quality I expected!

Live violinst was excellent. Small restaurant with only 8 tables set in old Doria palace room with frescoes was beautiful.

We decided to come here for a nice dinner in Genoa. The server and sommelier were both fantastic and the food was amazing! We ordered from the Fish tasting menu and the paired wines, they were great !
