Ristorante Locanda Borgo Antico

About

Ristorante Locanda Borgo Antico is a historic villa on Recco’s picturesque Ligurian coast, where the charm of a centuries‑old home meets the freshness of local fare. The restaurant’s main dining room, the veranda, and the terrace each offer distinct ambiances—from rustic stone walls and exposed wooden beams to panoramic sea views, creating a relaxed, family‑friendly atmosphere that also caters to couples and food lovers. Chef Fabrizio Cremonesi curates seasonal menus that highlight fresh, locally sourced ingredients and Ligurian culinary traditions, while the private wine cellar hosts an extensive selection of Italian and regional wines for pairing. The venue becomes even more special in the summer months with themed evenings, live music, and special wine tastings that showcase the best of the local terroir. Guests arrive to a welcoming lobby where staff greet them with genuine Italian hospitality, and the earlier-structured lunch menu at €12 per person provides an affordable tasting of the chef’s creations. A limited capacity ensures an intimate dining experience, especially during peak afternoons and holiday evenings, but the cozy setting is praised by travelers for its authenticity and charm. The venue’s seasonal events, picturesque seaside views, and the sense of stepping back in time to a traditional “casa” make Locanda Borgo Antico a unique culinary destination on the Italian Riviera.
