PEsciolino

Was a quite day 24/12, just few people having lunch. Really nice food and great service

Delicious fish and the pasta dish was also very good. Focaccia is served as "bread" to go with your meal and it was delicious. The food is very fine, congratulations to the chef. Portion sizes are small so if you are a hungry you'll need to main courses as they often propose in this region.

Very nice! The pesciolini's there are incredible. Great value for very good food. The location is not luxurious but the atmosphere is laid back so its okay. Approved! I suggest the sardines and the troffie. Generous portions.

A seafood restaurant next to Best Western hotel (same entrance) with excellent food and service ! We had Gamberi fritti with maionese and a super tuna tartare with green salad as starters followed by a delicious half lobster with spaghetti and a devine “Polpo (octopus) alla piasta con flan di zucca, purea di patate affumicata, salsa aioli allo zafferano e carciofi fritti” It would be a disaster If I try to translate this superb dish !!! All sweets following were incredible! Be careful when you reserve a table we made a mistake and we sent our reservation to the Rome same name restaurant …we gave our credit card online and because we didn’t show up we were charged €10 each one person. The very helpful and kind staff in Genova restaurant couldn’t help though they were willing to. But we will come back.

A very nice fine dining restaurant that specializes in sea food. It is located in the heart of the city of Genova and is within the best western inn. The staff are very friendly and help you in choosing your options from their wide varieties. The place is very chic and modern with a lot of cool interior elements. Unfortunately I do not eat sea food but the staff were very accommodating and provided me with excellent alternative choices of all the plates. My colleagues really enjoyed all the sea food plates and remarked that every plate is outstanding. The wine nicely complements with the meal and finally the desert is very unique and tasty. I highly recommend this place to enjoy some of the finest plates of sea food.

We would come back to Genoa just for this restaurant: it was in a non-descript hotel in a small alley but it was the best meal we had in the city. The other restaurants we had seen looked too touristy and didn’t have enough seafood on the menu which you think a town on the coast would. Anyway, the service was attentive and smooth (they brought extra bread without us asking - much appreciated) and all the dishes were excellent. The pasta was in particular one of the best we ever had!

Wonderful seafood! We had such a great dinner trying multiple dishes and everything was amazing. The staff is also super helpful in Italian and English if needed. The wine selection was on point with many local Ligurian wines to choose from. Restaurant is large with very dynamic seating options for all preferences. Will absolutely come back.

Outstanding food, wine and service. We had the mixed antipasto starter. Everything was a delight, but the grilled anchovies was really something extra. Followed by spaghettoni with a juicy and tender lobster, and grilled octopus with a delicate and beautiful carrot and ginger puré. The potatoes in the last dish was a bit on the salty side, but it balanced out when we ate the very nice Sicilian dessert with 3 different dishes in one. The room/surroundings on the upper floor (where the hotel also serves breakfast and light dinners) was not as cosy as the rooms on the bottom floor. Too bad we couldn't sit there. Hopefully next time!

Meh, the food was okay, I'd say it was underwhelming and a touch over priced. I ordered the tuna and my husband ordered the octopus. There was nothing wrong with it just both lacked flavor. The wait seat were friendly and offered a menu in both Italian and English.

Unfriendly manager and wait staff. Food overpriced and underwhelming. With so many good choices, would avoid this Best Western hour resturant.

Truly a gem and one of the best kept secrets in Genoa. Had the pleasure of dining at PEsciolino twice over a long weekend recently and the kitchen absolutely rocks!!!! This quaint little restaurant has two entrances, one through the lobby of the Best Western City Hotel and the other access is through the little "callejón" that connects the main street to the front door of the hotel. Enjoyed a lot of local seafood dishes and can highly recommend this place of culinary excellence.
