La Darsena - Rapallo

At the moment the restaurant has moved to the Lido Flora bathrooms. The food is excellent, the mussel soup is amazing!!! The service is very good, the owner is very helpful, the location is beautiful since you are on the sea. They will be opening a new place soon and I can't wait to try it!!! Meal type: Lunch Price per person: €10–20

Bottom line avoid this restaurant. Very disappointing from start to finish. First clue is the terrible bread left on the tables for guests. It is dry, stale, and tasteless. My wife ordered linguini with clams. It was dry, unseasoned, few clams, and basically tasteless. I ordered the gnocchi gamberini for my primi. It came swimming in olive oil, was tasteless, and I needed a microscope to find the few tiny shrimp in the dish. I ordered the fresh fish of the day for my secondi. The sea bream tasted fresh but was unseasoned and plain, and had many bones left in it by a careless chef. Just plain fried potatoes for the side yuk. The salade mista was totally forgettable. Add together the bad food, sparse wine list, and no view of any kind except a wall despite the waterfront location, this is a restaurant to avoid while in Rapallo.
