The pasta is fantastic, the ice cream will live in my dreams forever (they make it on the spot so it takes a while but well worth the wait). It's clean inside, well decorated, and the staff is very kind. If you miss this in Moneglia, you've missed an amazing experience. Highly recommend. I wish I had one of these in San Francisco.

The staff was warm and inviting since the second we walked in. The overall ambience was entertaining with the mix of music that was being played (salsa, bachata, latin top 100) and the tables were spaced apart for privacy. For my appetizer, I had the Seafood Antipasti. It was delicious and a great mix of local catches. It had sardines, oysters, and a stuffed seafood and cream empanada. My only dislike was I wished I had more haha. The Trofie di Pesto was downright delicious and well cooked. The only reason I can't give them five stars, is because it was pricy compared to other places and the portions given were a bit small. Despite this, I recommend this restaurant for a romantic dinner with a partner.

We visited here for our anniversary and still dream of the food. The pesto in Levanto is like…read morenothing you have tasted before. They make it with a young basil with pine nuts giving it that neon color green and richness. We love Da Tapulin and have recommended to friends who were lucky to discover Levanto.

There isn't really anywhere to wait, but fortunately it was nice so we just sat on the curb across the street. When we did get seated, the food was served promptly and a great bargain.

The ambiance there was very friendly. The pastas were some of the best I've had across Italy, and the the calamari was pretty good, as for the fish I liked it even though I'm a bit skittish of eating fish this way. i would recommend this redtaurant for anyone visiting. Maybe not the gold bier but the blond they have (8 ball) is pretty good.

We had requested a sea view table and were seated closest to the water. We ordered the fish sampler, pesto risotto, and tuna. The seafood sampler included nine types of fish, ever one was excellent. The pesto risotto had prawns in it and was delicious and very fresh. The tuna was cooked perfectly. The restaurant recommended a bottle of local wine which was also excellent. I would recommend this place to anyone coming to Monterosso! Definitely make a booking in advance, we saw several people get turned away who didn't have a booking.

Everything we tried was delicious, and appealed to me more than the super-touristy spots further down the road (though obviously most of the clientele here are also tourists). Prices seemed reasonable for the amount/quantity of food. Most importantly, Il Parata sells toilet paper, which proved hard to come by in Vernazza. Be sure to arrive before 5pm if you want food (outside of cannolis, which were available later).

He was so passionate about each pastry and dish which makes all the difference. Some chefs are just robotically serving up something to make money, but once in a while you come across the few special ones who are crafting their passion into an experience of flavor - they care about the customer, they care about the food, they want to see smiles and make your day memorable. They create an atmosphere out of their own infectious energy. These artists are truly making the world a better place and I can definitely say that about this establishment. They served this pistachio cannoli which was loaded with ricotta and actual pistachio flavor touched with orange, which was the best cannoli we had through a month of gluttonous Italian adventure. Their pistachio croissant matched the greatness and in fact was even better than any that we found in France! The berry panna cotta was also perfectly balanced being quite the treat yet clean feeling; the trademark Cinque Terre pesto gnocchi of course hit the spot; and the walnut ravioli sheesh what flavor as well as unique factor - dare I say, I even tasted a hint of hazelnut. If you go to Cinque Terre they say have have to go to Vernazza, and if you go to Vernazza I'm saying you have to visit Il Pirata. It's a little peace away from the madness tucked into the top of the street. They will treat you right
