ristorazione — San Bartolomeo al Mare · Liguria
In San Bartolomeo al Mare, on the Riviera di Ponente in Liguria, La Pinta has pursued a simple and successful idea since 1996: making pasta the centrepiece of a convivial table, just steps from the sea.
The story begins in 1996, when La Pinta opened as an Irish pub in San Bartolomeo al Mare, bringing a flair for hospitality and conviviality to the Riviera di Ponente. Over time the place has evolved without losing its character: thirty years of loyal regulars are the truest measure of that continuity.
The dining room speaks to the place's tone at once: a young, friendly atmosphere, family-run, with quick and warm service. Prices stay honest — forty-four euros for two, starter and pasta included, as customers note — and booking, recommended, is done by phone only: a gesture that says much about the scale of the place.
The format is precise: every dish arrives in the pan, with two hundred grams of pasta. Guests choose between fresh pasta — trofie, gnocchi, ravioli, tagliatelle — and dried pasta, with more than twenty sauces available. Seafood specialities lead the menu: spaghetti allo scoglio, vongole veraci, frittura di pesce, impepata di cozze. Recognisably Ligurian cooking, with no deviations.
A dish served in the pan, two hundred grams, more than twenty options: on La Pinta's page you'll find the full menu and all the contacts to book.
