Taste typical Ligurian dishes at Monterosso Al Mare

L'Ancora della Tortuga restaurant brings you Ligurian tradition, its scents and flavours, and the wonderful landscape offered by the cliffs of Monterosso Al Mare. The restaurant offers two distinct dining experiences, inviting you to discover the flavors of Liguria. Firstly, allow our chef to guide you through the "Journey to Our Tradition" Menu, a curated five-course experience that includes bread, house-fried bread, and water for €70.00. This can be further elevated with a selection of fine Ligurian DOC wines for a total of €110.00. Alternatively, you may explore our extensive à la carte menu, which features a variety of traditional Ligurian seafood and meat dishes. We look forward to welcoming you.
