Three addresses we genuinely recommend, all a short walk from the hotel and all much loved: an easygoing pizzeria, a seafood classic and a Michelin star.
In Noli you eat well, and almost everything is a short walk from the hotel. Without turning it into a ranking, here are the three places we recommend most often to our guests: one handy and informal just around the corner, a seafood classic, and a starred table for special occasions. All verified, open and with excellent reviews.
The largest pin is the hotel; the numbers match the three addresses below. Tap a pin to open it in Google Maps.
The handiest: you step out of the hotel and you are almost there. It is loved above all for the pizza, baked in a wood-fired oven with well-proofed dough, but the menu also has the fresh catch of the day and a few Ligurian dishes. Informal atmosphere, outdoor seating on the seafront and friendly staff: the right address for a quiet dinner, with no fuss.
Worth trying: the wood-fired pizza · Closed on Tuesdays
A well-kept dining room facing the sea and a family that has welcomed guests since 1978: Da Pino is a Noli classic for seafood. People come back for the freshness of the catch, chosen and presented at the table, and for dishes such as the scampi risotto. Attentive service and a warm welcome, for a dinner of a certain note a couple of steps from the hotel.
Worth trying: the scampi risotto
For a special occasion, the most celebrated table in Noli: a Michelin star in the setting of the Palazzo Vescovile, with a terrace over the sea. Chef Giuseppe Ricchebuono works the local fish with elegance and restraint, and the service is warm without excessive formality. Those who have been there tell of surprising value for money, for a star.
