There was a table that was clean and fit all of us, but because it was reserved for a group 2 hours ahead of us, it was "not available". The food took forever (20-30 minutes). Even though the food was averagely priced, it should have been a lot lower for the punishment we payed. The bread was an embarrassment to all of Italy. I did enjoy my meal a little bit, but it was disappointing. All in all, I don't recommend it.

With few reviews online, I was hesitant to try the restaurant but with few other authentic choices around, we gave it a shot. And I'm glad we did! You enter through the street level Eataly doors and take the elevator to the third floor. You can walk through Eataly or immediately take a right to head straight for Il Marin. The food was diverse and creative. The focus is Liguarian inspired cuisine (the region) and seafood. For those that do not like seafood, there are multiple menu items that stay away from seafood entirely. There is an extensive wine list and the staff will talk you through it if needed. Everyone at the table had a different meal (pasta or main course) and we finished off with dessert and espresso. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable and helpful throughout the dinner. What would have easily been a $300+ dinner in the states didn't even break 150 Euros. The prices in the restaurant are slightly higher than the food area just outside in Eataly (and different food is served) but the quality, service and creativity are well worth stepping inside Il Marin. Highly recommend making this one of your stops in Genoa!

We'd hiked for two hours along the red trail from Manarola. It was lunch time. We were in…read moreCorniglia. We needed nourishment. So our butts found seats at Dau Tinola. Our waiter (white hair, older man) seemed cold but at least prompt and professional. We ordered mixed salads, espressos and split a margherita pizza. The server provided us with a bottle of balsamic vinegar and a bottle of olive oil for the salads. This was the first meal during our trip to Italy where we discovered the incredible quality of the real legit stuff (NOT supermarket-bought junk in the U.S.) The pizza was quite tasty although a little on the soft side, so there was room for improvement in Dau Tinola's cooking. Espressos were great. I liked the outdoor seating. It was a beautiful day, and Dau Tinola's location made for good people-watching in the piazza area. It was lunchtime, and we were there in our hiking gear. Dau Tinola was just what we needed. I probably wouldn't recommend it for a nice dinner.

Just before the rain started we were able to sit outside, and the no nonsense waiter took a shine to us. He was most kind. We had the tomato spaghetti and grilled fish, just right, both delicious with the house white wine. A little chaotic as church bells were loud at the end of mass, plus the restaurnt is at the bus stop for those transporting down to the train. But we enjoyed the food and felt well cared for.
