The best restaurants Savona

Just across from the cathedral, in an arty setting with a pretty decor, a new restaurant that focuses on traditional Ligurian fish-based cuisine, but above all on its vegetarian/vegan menu, where oriental sauces are a welcome addition. Although the choice of dishes, made with local, seasonal produce, is limited, the vegetable/vegetable combinations are tasty, and the desserts gourmet, like this walnut cake. On Sundays, fish fry is almost always on the menu. Good regional wines.

One thought from now on completed the time of the addresses of street food of this style; and yet some resist still and always. Tiny shop, with its stove and its fryers, the Casa (house) of the panizza nourishes still working and employees of the center of Soaped. Here the pasta containing chickpea flour (the panizza) is fried in large oil pans and is used between two slices as bread. It is not very light, but how it is good! In dessert, afternoon snack with the castagnaccio, a cake with the chestnut flour. 

This restaurant is a sure bet in town. Don't hesitate to enter the dining room to discover the decor, which is as much a galleon captain's cabin as a pirate's den. Bacco, the owner and a former fisherman himself, has put together a jumble of bric-a-brac. The à la carte menu features a seafood platter, marinated Ligurian anchovies, spaghetti with shellfish, bottarga pasta, fritto misto, stockfish, grilled swordfish... To accompany your meal, we recommend mineral water(naturale) or a pitcher of house white wine(vermentino).

An institution in Savona, where the queue gets longer every evening. It has to be said that, until 2016, this trattoria had no reservation phone, no license to serve coffee and even less of a page on social networks! Things have changed since then, and phones and coffee have made their appearance. The farinata (a kind of roasted chickpea cake) is one of the best in Liguria, but the fresh fish dishes, cutlets, small fried dishes, soups and pastas are just as excellent.
