This was great! We had the stuffed mussels, Italian spaghetti, and Ligurian cod with potato and olives. Best meal so far in Europe!

We found this place after wanting to depart from our tour group for lunch. Glad we did.
Carpaccio of polipio (octopus) octopus isn’t usually memorable but this one is. Tender melt in your mouth tastes of the sea. Obviously a house speciality.
The day’s special was spaghetti with crab. But it was so much more than that! It was presented in a ceramic pot almost a large as the table and still slightly simmering. Although thoroughly flavored by the crab… you really couldn’t eat the crab meat. They were too small. Large prawns were in there, but had to be peeled with extensive effort.
Overall a delicious pasta dish that was more about presentation than anything else.
Everything that cam from the kitchen looked amazing. Frutti di mare, gnocchi, pesto, fresh fish, etc. all looked perfect.
It’s only a block up from the pier, but far enough away from where the tour groups go. Very authentic an extremely friendly staff treat you like familia.

After a long, long day of hiking, my girl and I needed to relax in the worst way. We only had time for one meal in Monterosso, so we looked up the New York Times article «Treasures of the Cinque Terre» —
Il Moretto was on the list.
So we made our way down to the restaurant and were immediately seated. Servers were very accommodating and kind. (We were dressed in our most comfortable clothes and didn’t feel out of place, even though it seems like a «nicer» restaurant.)
I ordered the steak filet with green pepper sauce. It was perfectly cooked. Absolutely fell apart on my fork. If I had it to do over again, I’d pass on the sauce. It didn’t really add anything to the dish.
My girlfriend ordered lasagna that was to die for. The lightest noodles you’ve ever tasted.
We had an amazing bottle of Cinque Terre wine and stayed very late. It was virtually a perfect evening.
Total damage for two entrees and a full bottle of wine — $ 73.33.
If you’re staying in Monterosso, I’m sure all the restaurants are fantastic, but Il Moretto was top notch.
