Marco Polo - Ventimiglia (IM)

The Marco Polo restaurant, run for three generations by the Pani family, is located in a beautiful seafront position on the Ventimiglia promenade. The place is unmistakable: a building entirely made of wood, like a chalet, which stands out among the other signs of the beach establishments. The interiors are also completely made of wood: the overall atmosphere, warm and welcoming, may initially amaze with its originality in the context. The entrance precedes the two dining rooms.

Riccardo Portesi's dishes are very well assorted and personal, cooked with beautiful technique and aesthetic sense: you will begin to have fun reading the names on the card, and you will be amazed by passing by to taste them.
