Le Mani in Pasta

Normally I'm not giving less than 4 stars, but here I must. The food was good, not amazing but good. The thing is that the waiter/owner of the restaurant was really rude. We felt like he doesn't want to serve us, like he is the boss and we are little kids that know nothing about food. He was rushing us to choose from the menu. Normally we would stand up, say something and leave. But in this case we were with a bigger group. Something else to be aware of, if you end up deciding to go there, is at the moment of paying your bill. He wanted to trick us into paying double service fees. Thanks to one of our friends he changed the bill. There is a lot of similar, cute, little restaurant in the area, so don't waste your time or good spirits here. Definitely not recommended.

Thank you for the wonderful experience we had, every plate was excellent and delicious ! I had goosebumps after every bite I had , not kidding ! Service and the kitchen team was very friendly and awaits every guests with warmth. I 100% recommend to try.👏🏾👌🏾🤌🏾🙏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I stumbled upon this place by roaming around the streets of Genova across the Porto Antico, and it was just the perfect discovery. I tried the Ligurian and local classic fresh homemade pasta with pesto (Mandilli al pesto Genovese), which was simply exquisite! I also had the grilled octopus paired with potato purée and squid ink. It was one of the tastiest dishes I tried on my trip to Italy. Kudos to the waitress who recommended it. The prices at Le Mani in Pasta were affordable per Italian standards, and the staff was very friendly.

Had the best pasta! The desserts especially the cheesecake is super delicious! Totally recommended the platter as entree and dont forget to try the squid ink pasta (forgot the name in the menu)

One of the most complicated things when travelling is finding good places to eat. I am going to make it easy for you this time if you are visiting Genova and near the port, specially coming in a cruise ship. This small restaurant was DELICIOUS and very affordable. Seafood was fresh and the pasta amazing, specially the Genova pesto specialty. The desserts were out of this world!!! Staff was very friendly and nice. Two of the family do not eat seafood and the staff glady cooked plates not on the menu. I don't think you'll go wrong choosing this place specially if you like seafood and pasta.

What a hidden gem! Friendly service, fresh and great food, there’s nothing to be left desired. One thing however, you need to love seafood, otherwise your options for a main dish are limited.

The food was excellent! The customer service was great too. This is a good place to enjoy and have fun. Some bad reviews are misleading; one I saw they gave a one star because the restaurant was closed.
