Osteria della Piazza
About
Nestled in the historic center of Genoa, Osteria della Piazza brings the authentic flavors of Liguria to your table. The menu is a celebration of local traditions, featuring hand‑made pasta such as trofie al pesto and gnocchi, humble focaccia, and an impressive selection of fresh seafood. The restaurant also boasts its own pizzerias—light yet flavorful, made with a special dough that has been leavened for 45–50 hours, resulting in an airy crust that has earned a reputation among locals. With 60 seats inside and an equally generous outdoor terrace during the sunny months, the venue offers both table service and take‑out. Its central location on Piazza Colombo makes it easily reachable by public transport and welcoming for families, couples, and foodies alike.
