Yum! We were able to get a reservation the next night after
Yum! We were able to get a reservation the next night after calling. Originally we made it for outside but since it was a rainy evening, they allowed us to move inside with a short wait. Once it was time to order my husband decided he wanted to do the tasting menu, while I only wanted the truffle pasta. They allowed us to do that which was really nice and uncommon. The bread they brought out as well was phenomenal! Like a seasoned beignet. We enjoyed all of our food so much, and were completely stuffed when it was time to leave. If you make a reservation for inside, I would recommend the little raised nook area surrounded by rock. They'll know what you're talking about. Looked like a fun spot to sit (it had cushions). We sat at main level which was totally fine, but if you're looking for something different that seat was unique. Service was great as well. On top of things. Fun vibe inside. Would recommend!

After seeing the reviews for this place, we had our hotel secure reservations for their last seating of the evening. We'd heard the view was amazing, but our table was downstairs and inside where you couldn't see anything at all, so be sure you aren't coming just for the view! Even though there were only a couple occupied tables in the dining room, our server took a really long time to come greet us, longer to come back for our drink order, I almost fell asleep before she took our food order, and I was dozing by the time food came out.. and she never checked on us in between. It was actually the first time in Italy we had a server who was unpleasant too. The husband and I had been amazed at how nice and hospitable waitstaff was in italy, so it was a bit surprising to be greeted with a bit of an attitude. We were extra nice, though, and finally got her to smile by the end. We'd had a late lunch, so we weren't starving, and each ordered just one thing. The husband really enjoyed his truffle pasta and devoured it despite saying he was too full for dinner. This was the only time on our trip I got risotto, and I picked a good time cause it was delicious. Herbaceous from the basil and topped with a local prawn and lots of shrimp bites mixed in.. really was phenomenal. If dining here again, I'd definitely reserve a good table in advance and come hungry so I could try more things.
Be the first to ReplyThis place is a MUST.
Incredible meal, views, service. Definitely book in advance so you don't miss an opportunity to enjoy this magical place. The pesto risotto with prawns was indescribable. I'm certain it was one of the best meals I had the entire time I was in Italy. The anchovy appetizer was a fun way to experience different preparations and I would highly recommend. Don't pass up!
Be the first to ReplyMy husband & I had the most exceptional dining experience
My husband & I had the most exceptional dining experience here early in July. When I originally made the reservation, it was for a later time and requested an outdoor table with a view. I had called day of to change to an earlier time (7pm which is when they opened). We arrived to the restaurant and there was a short que and we were 3rd in line. There was a cute table right at the top of the stairs that was just for 2 people with the Tortuga sign that I thought was the best seat in the house and when we were up I gave my name and the lovely woman said "your table is right here". There were other tables along the stone wall with the beautiful view of Vernazza and the ocean but this table was secluded onto itself & charming. The entire waitstaff was superb and gave exceptional & professional service. The food was also the BEST we had eaten during our 8 days in Cinque Terre! Out of all the places we had eaten, this was our FAVORITE!

We had heard great things, but all expectations were exceeded! We arrived a bit early, and were able to be accommodated. We had requested a sea view table and were seated closest to the water. We ordered the fish sampler, pesto risotto, and tuna. The seafood sampler included nine types of fish, ever one was excellent. The pesto risotto had prawns in it and was delicious and very fresh. The tuna was cooked perfectly. The restaurant recommended a bottle of local wine which was also excellent. I would recommend this place to anyone coming to Monterosso! Definitely make a booking in advance, we saw several people get turned away who didn't have a booking.
Be the first to ReplyFor being a Michelin restaurant, I was surely disappointed.
The food was just okay. It was quite bland and the service was horrible. No one came by not even once to ask how we were doing or even poured one glass of wine for us. I have visited many Michelin restaurant in all my years and was very disappointed. For a quarter of the price we have had excepcional meal throughly Italy. This was not one of them.

We luckily got seated without a reservation for a late lunch outside. I would recommend the outdoor seating. We enjoyed fresh seafood and wine and had a wonderful time.

After a day hiking Cinque Terre we ended here for dinner at the most beautiful cliffside view. Service was good. Although, just a heads up, when you do call to make a reservation, you have to specify you want a table RIGHT along the water. We didn't know that so we were sat a row up even though there were empty tables by the water (they were being saved for walk ins I think..) a bit disappointing but we still enjoyed the view and night. The food was good. Beautiful presentation but lacking a tad in flavor. Overall nice night, nice views, okay service, good food.

Probably one of the best restaurants in all of Italy--a dozen tables set off against the ridge with a drop dead view of the Ligurian coast. On a summer Day the white table cloth setting complements the wonderful courses, from the antipasti to the primi on to the secondi. The service was regrettably poor, with 4 or 5 lovely servers all eagerly hanging out together and talking, forgetting the orders, generally ignoring the guests but really who cares. It's one of those bucket list singing experiences in Italy
Be the first to ReplyI found this restaurant on the Michelin website and checked
I found this restaurant on the Michelin website and checked the TripAdvisor reviews. I didn't get to make a reservation on time, but I came early on a weekday at around 6:50 PM to see if I could get seated at 7:30 PM. Google said they opened at 7:30, but it turns out they open at 7 PM. There were three other parties ahead of me, and two of them had reservations. Thankfully, those with reservations were sitting inside, so I got a table on the cliff overlooking the Ligurian Sea. It was amazing.GETTING HERE: It's in the town of Monterosso, which is part of Cinque Terre. Getting off of the train, turn left and keep walking along the beach. Go up toward the "torre" (tower) signs, not through the tunnel. It's the first restaurant on the right. if you have reservations, you can go directly down the stairs inside. If you don't, you need to talk with a server. SERVICE: English is spoken. I added a secondi plate later, and I think the server may have forgotten about it because it took 30+ minutes after the primi dishes came out. FOOD: Get the catch of the day. The fish is served whole, but they'll filet it for you if you ask. It's cooked Ligurian style - in the oven with potatoes. I tried Gragnano's spaghetti, which came with a good amount of seafood. Everything was so fresh. I loved how they cooked the octopus! I also tried the risotto, but this one got cold quickly. It tasted better hot. I would recommend getting this too.They also have a traditional menu of 6-7 items for 45 euros. It sounds good to try if you can't decide what to order. The prices are steep compared to places in Rome or Florence. I guess they factor in having seafood and nice views.They have restrooms inside, thank God! You don't have to pay for it if you're dining there. I visited in April, and it got very cold toward the end of the night. They supply small blankets, but I don't know if they were used/I didn't want to take chances.

TRY THE SEAFOOD PASTA IF YOUR IN NEED OF A SOIREE IN YOUR MOUTH. The steamy and silky linguine paired with the freshly caught and seasoned seafood, will give you the ITIS. Definitely will need a nap after this one.
Be the first to ReplyRistorante L'Ancora della Tortuga was something I found
Ristorante L'Ancora della Tortuga was something I found when researching Monterosso Al Mare. We love to support local family operated businesses and we found that the chef and his wife own this lovely, rustic, seaside establishment. The evening we came in it was pouring with rain. Finding the place was not at first easy, but when we walked in a little flustered with ourselves, they seated us graciously and let us settle with some white wine we chose and served us extraordinary, pillowy, garlicky, dough morsels that just melt in your mouth. We decided on first and second courses each that we would share with one another. For our first courses, we had a grilled prawn and pesto risotto with pine nuts, and a Spaghetti Del Gargano with octopus, clams, mussels and prawns tossed with olive oil, basil and cherry tomato - yes this was just a first course. For the second course we asked for the catch of the day which was Sea Bass, on a bed of shaved potato with tomato, olives, spring lettuce, lemon and herbs. They present it to you whole, then offer to clean it up. The other second course was a Tuna Steak with caramelized red onion with lightly breaded and fried, garden fresh zucchini slices. Are you drooling yet? I am, I want to go back there everyday for the rest of my life. The service was wonderful and the restrooms clean. The atmosphere is really beautiful and I'm guessing in better weather amazing to dine alfresco! You have to make reservations, its a small place! Be sure to give it a try though! Dessert was available but we had no room. Their chocolate cake was being ordered repeatedly though! And we were given a lovely limoncello with our check too.
Be the first to ReplyTortuga is top notch.
We made a reservation to be safe, which was probably a good idea based on how quickly the restaurant filled up after we sat. We were seated at a cute little table on an upper level inside what looked like a small enclave. So special! Had a bottle of red, local wine that was so tasty. Ordered the creamed cod appetizer, Grandma's truffle pasta, orange duck and steamed salmon entrees. Food was out of this world! Finished with tiramisu for dessert. We discovered what the Michelin rating was here and I'm glad we did. Service was great for how busy the restaurant got as a large party sat in the middle soon after we arrived. View out the door is phenomenal!
Be the first to ReplyBest meal we had in Cinque Terre.
The duck, and pesto risotto with scampi were delicious, as was the bread. Service was attentive. Atmosphere is really cool inside (it was a bit coldto be outside), and outdoor seating has fantastic water views if the weather permits. Price was commensurate with everywhere else.

The view is amazing on this one so it's worth the bit of the walk! The staff were willing to go above and beyond for us and we were not disappointed. The fish of the day, the pasta, gnocchi and drinks were amazing! Make sure you come here when visiting this part of the world!
Be the first to ReplyBest restaurant we've experienced thus far in Italy.
Absolutely everything was amazing from the doughy bread, to the seafood sampler, to our amazing pasta with truffle, to the catch of the day (sea bass). Everyone was in food bliss!
