A table at this tiny restaurant is difficult to come by in summer, as the manager caters mostly to friends and regulars. If you are lucky enough to get in, however, the food will not disappoint you, nor will the cozy but elegant yellow interior. The unforgettable pappardelle (large, flat noodles) al portofino delicately blends two of Liguria's tastes, tomato and pesto. Ligurian seafood specialties include baked fish with bay leaves, potatoes, and olives as well as the inventive moscardini al forno (baked octopus with lemon and rosemary in tomato sauce).
