Rio Bistrot
A Michelin-selected bistro on the way to the harbor in Riomaggiore, offering both Ligurian classics and creative seafood, complete with a terrace.
Located at 46 Via San Giacomo on the way to the harbor in Riomaggiore, this bistro is selected in the 2026 Michelin Guide. The short menu is half traditional Ligurian and half creative dishes, served in a rustic yet elegant dining room with an outdoor terrace. The Gambero Rosso guide highlights the squid ink pasta stuffed with monkfish, burrata with celeriac cream, and the cocoa and hazelnut tart. The menu changes with the daily catch, and also includes meat dishes and pesto pasta. The average cost is about €50 per person, and some diners feel the portions are on the smaller side. Closed on Mondays. Reservations are recommended (phone +39 0187 920616).
