One of the great Genoa classics It is this family-run restaurant where the cuisine is delicious and the prices very affordable. What more could you want? In addition, for many, the pesto pasta they prepare here is one of the richest in Genoa. White and red checkered tablecloths, a menu that changes every day and a very local atmosphere. You will have to try it to draw conclusions hehe. The daily menu, which they write by hand on a blank sheet, consists of first, second and drink and costs 10€.

Another option where to eat cheap in Genoa, is a trattoria da asporto (bone, take-away dishes) although you can also eat at the place, yes, keep in mind that it is quite “rustic”. The daily dishes are homemade and rich (pasta, fish fry ...). Only negative point: the dishes are made of plastic, also for eating at the premises. Average prices per person: € 7-12.

If you feel like eating the Focaccia, one of the most beloved dishes in Genoa, Strakkino is a good alternative to the typical bakery. The traditional spongy focaccia may not work here, but its version convinces everyone who eats it. The best thing, to form an idea, is to try both (you can find a delicious traditional foccaccia in the “Focacceria Genovese”).

If you feel like eating something passing by, or catching something to take it with you and eat it on an excursion or outdoors, the Gran Ristoro is a great choice. Do not be fooled by appearances, this little shop is one of the favorite places of the Genoese of all ages ... and for something it will be! It specializes in snacks (They say they prepare more than 150 different types). You can choose your favorite cheese and the deli you prefer. Let yourself be advised by the owner or it will take your life to choose hehe.

Trattoria Rosmarino is another city ​​classic. Prices are a tad higher but they do not go out of the average traveler budget (pastes for € 11 / seconds for € 15). Of course there is no lack of typical local dishes such as pasta with anchovies or pesto, but they also have more "creative" dishes. Fresh products and friendly staff.

It is the place you have to go if you feel like a Burger Good and cheap (the classic, with potatoes and drink, costs € 5.20. More elaborated between € 6 and € 8, always with menu). What we like most about the site is that products are local, bought from nearby stores (from meat to vegetables). Recommended Masetto burguer, with beef, cheese, onion, bacon and bbq sauce.

The fried fish It is something very typical of this area of ​​Italy and if you want to try it at good prices there are a few freidurías where to do it. The Antica Friggitoria Carega is one of the best known (and loved). Here the Frying cones cost about 6-8 €Try the totani fritti (squid). Tip: in this place there is also the panissa and the farinata, other specialties of Genoa, based on chickpea flour. Test it. Not advised to those who want to lose weight or reduce cholesterol ... but to everyone else.
