Ristorante Da O Vittorio Recco

Based on our landlord's recommendation to go to Da O Vittorio for good fish, we planned to do so at lunchtime on the last Sunday of our vacation. Unfortunately, it was already fully booked, but we got a table for the evening and were able to bring our dog with us. Parking can be challenging, so allow plenty of time for this. After a nice chat with the junior manager, we had a wonderful Italian waiter who took great care of us and gave us perfect recommendations. The restaurant offers a great selection of wines at very reasonable prices. Although we had ordered the fish platter as a starter (photo), we also received two pieces of focaccia al formaggio di Recco (photo) as a greeting from the kitchen, both of which dishes were excellent. My wife had a perfect and award-winning fish soup, and I was excited about the porcini mushroom trilogy, both of which were excellent (photos), again. Already very satisfied and full, we treated ourselves to a layered mousse made from three types of chocolate for dessert (photo). There is only one verdict: outstanding, magnificent, and highly recommended. You will enjoy it and feel at home. Thank you to the restaurant and its team!!!

We stayed one night at vittorio and had dinner at the restaurant. First to the room, old, not really clean and definetely not worth the asked price. Check the pictures. Our room was in a seperate building The food in the restaurant was good, as well as the service. I would go again and eat there in the evening. The breakfast was compared to the quality of the restaurant below average. Also the selection was little (i know italians dont really care for the breakfast). Atmosphere at the breakfast was like a canteen.

Very fine dining experience in Liguria. The focaccia di Recco is heavenly, and the fish soup is very delicious too

The focaccia al formaggio is to die for. Don’t trust the not too good looking location

I always go to Da Ö Vittorio when I’m in Recco, and it never disappoints. The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere, making it the perfect place to enjoy a great meal. This time, I started with their famous focaccia al formaggio, a true specialty of the house. It was absolutely delicious—perfectly crispy on the outside and irresistibly creamy on the inside. For my main course, I had a beautifully presented salmon dish with senso and edible flowers. The flavors were refined and well-balanced, making every bite a pleasure. To finish, I enjoyed a cup of ice cream, which was the perfect sweet ending to a fantastic meal. The owners are incredibly friendly, and the service is always attentive and welcoming. If you’re in Recco, Da Ö Vittorio is a must-visit!

Had a great dinner but the waitress seemed overwhelmed and stressed with only a few tables, the food was really good and fairly priced.

This is a restaurant fantastic! Battia Bisso helped us secure a reservation on WhatsApp and we had a amazing experience starting from the focaccia (legendary) to the spaghetti alla saracena (seafood) and vitello all’uccelletto con Funghi porcini (veal/mushrooms) it was amazing! After our dinner it was late and the train and taxi were not good options. The owner’s son, volunteered to drive us back to our Comogli hotel (close but not so close) in his own personal car to save us cost and hassle factor! Unbelievable! So great! This place is the Best!

Absolutely amazing focaccia there! The Waiter was friendly, professional and helpful. We had a Recco Focaccia that was to die for. He could speak Spanish, English and understand some french. The restaurant is beautiful and easy to find

Probably one of the most recommended restaurants in Recco, i had this in my list for a long time, but for one reason or another we never tried it. Yesterday night was the night, the first choice restaurant, a very convenient pizza place in Camogli nearby our place, was closed, so we decided to try out O Vittorio. What a great experience! Everything was delicious. Special mention to the focaccia col formaggio, a little masterpiece. Highly recommended.

Should I ever have the opportunity to return to Recco, I will surely be dining here. Our server and service was excellent and entertaining! This family and the workers are a hoot and such lovely people. The food was excellent, the atmosphere as inviting and truly made me feel like I was truly vacationing in Italy. Stop by and give this lovely gem a try.

Last summer (2010) was my first trip to Italy. It was so hot and humid I could barely breath. But Italy is nothing less that spectacular either way. Anyway, my friend took me here for lunch. I was still hung over from drinking too much wine the night before but we were very hungry. We ordered cool, crisp white wine to cure the hang over and the heat. He ordered for us and to my surprise, 2 different appetizers appeared. One was a light and flaky dough that had puffed up in the oven. When it was cut open, warm gooey cheese oozed out of that beautiful pastry. The second was my favorite thing. Probably one of the best things I've ever eaten and dream about. Focaccia di Recco. Paper thin dough filled with beautiful stracchino cheese that is not skimped on, baked in a very high heat oven until the cheese is bubbling and the dough is crispy. It's PERFECTION! I could eat this for the rest of my life easily. And as I hear it, Vittorio's is the place to get this devine creation. Make sure you order it and you will not be disappointed. We also had beautiful pastas with amazing sauces. One of which was a walnut sauce. Really delicious! I really hope you have the chance to visit this restaurant. It's very much what I think an Italian restaurant that's been around for several hundred years should be like. The inside dotted with old and new furnishings and the food... YUM!
