Antica Trattoria Centro

Recommended by our host and did not disappoint. Very good food in an inviting, although crowded dining room. Sardine starter was fabulous, other seafood dishes also fresh and very good. Service attentive and friendly.

On our last day in the area, our hostess highly recommended that we go here for dinner. When we passed by, we went in and asked if we could reserve a table, and the owner was very kind. Even though he didn't speak English, we still managed to agree on when we wanted to come. I want to emphasise that if it takes a while to take your order, it's because there is a clear division between who takes orders, who serves, and who serves wine. So don't feel like you're being ignored; they know what they're doing and haven't forgotten you're there. We ordered a selection of sashimi and vegetable antipasti, which were very generous in size and really tasty. Then we shared the fish ravioli with lobster. Beyond the fact that the dish itself is beautiful, it is simply delicious and perfectly prepared. Keep in mind that the dish is huge and can easily feed three or even four people! Highly recommended. And another important thing - their sommelier is simply excellent.

Absolutely outstanding ! Everything about this restaurant was exceptional : the service was warm and attentive, the food was exquisite with incredible flavors, the setting was beautiful and inviting, and the overall quality was excellent. A true gem in Levanto that I highly recommend to anyone that looks for a place to spend a very nice moment.

My experience with Michelin guide’s acknowledged restaurants is flawless service with an unique atmosphere and perfect food. However, although this restaurant has excellent service provided by excellent servers, yet the food serves, to me, as somewhat lacking. The overwhelming majority of the dishes I tried lacked in salt and instead relied on the customer to make it to their desired taste. The wine list is impressive, but not too many options for soft drinks. For dessert my tiramisu felt a little bit lacking with the absence of liqueur. As a whole this was a great dinner and I’d certainly dine here again.

Absolutely wonderful meal- one of our best in Italy. Everything was so delicious. The pasta and seafood were perfect, everything was sourced locally. We appreciated the great service and inexpensive yummy local wines. The sommelier was so friendly and approachable. Very highly recommend!!

Best meal on our trip on Sept 19, '24. We had tried to get in a couple of times when we were walking by, but we finally made a reservation at 7 pm one night. We were the first ones in the restaurant, but that was kind of cool as we got served quickly. We shared the stuffed mussels (with a light tomato sauce) as an appetizer with local white wine, then we had the seafood risotto (could have served 3 ppl.) It was all soooo good! We shared a tiramisu that was also good, but not the best we've had. The servers were all nice and very efficient, and by the time 8 pm rolled around, the place was packed. Highly recommend!

Absolutely gorgeous, both the food and service. We shared a seafood risotto followed by a dessert each and coffees...everything was delicious. Very relaxing atmosphere and from looking about suitable for everyone...couples, big families, young families etc.

Service and atmosphere is good, however food is.. lower than our expectations. Especially looking at the price. Mussels were not cleaned well before cooking so we had to get some parts out of our mouth. Green pasta was lower than average by taste. Risotto was good, rice is amazing, but again.. prepare the mussels before serving. And the only part of lobster that we say was a head. Will not visit again
