Ristorante Ippogrifo

About

Ristorante Ippogrifo has been a staple of Genoa’s culinary scene since 1982, combining a refined, Mediterranean menu with the hospitality of a family‑run establishment. The restaurant sources ingredients primarily from the Ligurian and Piedmont regions, featuring fresh seafood, homemade pasta and locally produced olive oil. Guests are greeted in an elegant, intimate setting that fuses traditional nautical décor with modern touches, making it an ideal venue for business lunches, romantic dinners or family celebrations. A highlight of any visit is the extensive wine cellar, where over 800 Italian and French labels await. In addition to Ligurian wines, the cellar showcases celebrated Costiera varieties, a house‑made Aglianico della Costiera Amalfitana, and a curated selection of premium French appellations. Sommelier‑guided tastings are often available, ensuring that each wine pairs perfectly with the chef’s seasonal dishes. Beyond its gourmet menu and world‑class vintages, Ippogrifo offers a seamless reservation experience. All‑day headline hours run weekdays from 12:00‑14:30 and again from 19:00‑23:00, with the same schedule on Saturdays and Sundays; the restaurant is closed on Thursdays.
