The best restaurants Livorno

A pleasant restaurant with attentive service, excellent cuisine and a pleasant setting, located next to the church. The house is best known for its primi piatti. The list is long: lasagna, spaghetti ai frutti di mare, tortelli alla panna, gnocchi al pesto... Those who like pasta, cacciucco and seafood will be delighted. A small selection of meat dishes is also available à la carte. Not to mention the tasty pizzas baked on a wood fire! Vincenzo, in charge since 1983, knows how to renew himself and is enjoying a deserved success.

Near the port of Livorno, in an authentic and simple setting, this restaurant offers breakfasts, lunches and dinners at very reasonable prices - that is why it is also frequented by local workers during their lunch break. Here, generally no menu, you are told the daily specials inspired by the market. From antipasti to desserts, everything is homemade. Fast, efficient and careful service. Friendly atmosphere. And for the amateurs, cacciucco on reservation on Friday and Saturday!

The Ancora is undoubtedly one of the best restaurants in the city. Cuisine based on seafood products, of course, including Livorno's great speciality: cacciucco, a tasty soup made from fish, crustaceans and molluscs. Other specialities are to be noted, such as wild boar cooked in several ways, pappardelle with hare, tortelli, or even local soups, seasoned with olive oil, all accompanied by a prestigious wine list. We're having a great time! And it's better to book.

In the 1970s, it was "the place to be" in Livorno! Marcello Mastroianni and Alberto Sordi, who came to Castiglioncello on holiday, were among the prestigious regulars. Antico Moro remains a cult place, even if the price-quality ratio is not the best, even if its location in a small alley is not glamorous, and even if the kitsch decoration will not please everyone. But the hearty and ultra fresh cacciucco, the typical Livorno dish, is worth a visit. It is therefore better to book in advance.
