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.

But that's not all: research transcends into the study of the relationship between food and well-being and attention to natural foods, which alone guarantee the well-being of the human organism.

Cuisine and Philosophy: a union that also involves a non-excessive dimension, the only one that can guarantee effective control of the entire gastronomic chain.
