25 years ago, I was sitting in a surgeon's office, nervously awaiting the removal of my vasectomy stitches. I opened a surprisingly current travel magazine to be confronted by the magnificent vista of Portofino harbour taken from the balcony of the the Hotel Splendido. I decided then that, one day, we would have lunch on that terrace. It was a... More

April 28th, my wife's birthday. Where better in the whole world to celebrate than a meal for two at this place? Warning: Don't go if you're concerned about cost because this will blow a hole in €400.00. From start to finish, this was an historic meal. Service was excellent, food was undeniably epic. They had made a birthday cake for... More

We had the great pleasure of returning to the restaurant La Terrazza of the Hotel Splendido in Portofino. From the moment you arrive everything is taken care of. Dinner on the terrace is a memorable experience, the food is exceptional, beautifully presented and of the highest quality as you would expect from a restaurant with this reputation. The Maitre d'...

the view was absolutely amazing along with the service. they were very friendly. the hotel was gorgeous. they picked us up downstairs at our hotel. however the food was overpriced. we spent about 400 dolllars for the 2 of us, and the food was on par with other 160 dollar meals

Excellent service, spectacular view, jasmin and citrus blossom scent the air, food good but not amazing. We had seafood risotto and asparagus ravioli, mixed seafood grill, raspberry mille feuille and sorbets, coffee, water and one modest bottle of wine and the bill was €380! It was a special treat for us and we are happy to pay if the food... More

We are currently staying in portofino and last night we ate in this restaurant based on the reviews. I can see why people eat there it's nice with it's elevated view of the harbour and can imagine it on a nice sunny day. BUT .......we didn't expect an average meal to cost us 258 euros !!!!!! Beware !!!!!

The food was good but nothing was particularly memorable. The restaurant is very pretty (over-looking the harbour) but the environment was a little too 'stuffy' and the food over-priced. You pay for the view. The tables are very close to each other, which means that you keep over-hearing your neighbours.

My wife and I visited Portofino during our stay at the Cinque Terre. Not knowing too much about dining options at the Hotel Splendido we enquired at a little pharmacy in town. They advised us that we could take the complimentary shuttle up to the hotel and that the restaurant for lunch was great. We took their advice and had... More

I heard a lot about the Splendido hotel in Portofino, but did not want to pay the $800 per night to stay there so I thought we could at least enjoy the restaurant. After spending the afternoon in Portofino, I wasn't exactly sure how to get up to the hotel that was further up on the hill and wasn't ready... More

This is one of my favorite place for diner in the world, the location is just unique. It's one of those places you want to go at least once in your life. Part of a legendary palace hotel, when you step there you become part of the legend of the Costa Azura and you will understand why it becomes what... More
