We were in Sanremo for the day and wandered into this cute restaurant. Best decision ever. The…read moreweather was gorgeous so we sat outside. The thing with alfresco dining in Europe, is that 99% of the time you will be among smokers. When you are a non-smoker and are trying to enjoy your meal, this can be really annoying. We arrived around 15:00 and the place was empty, so we had the outside area all to ourselves. For about 15 minutes. We, of course, were blessed by a chain smoker. No lie, she had a cigarette in her left hand and her fork in her right. And she would kindly turn her head and blow her smoke in our direction. I digress. Our server was super friendly and patient with my so-so Italian. They bring out a huge bread basket & olives to start. We each ordered the 20€ lunch menu. Pasta, dessert & wine. I had the Lasagna & my husband had the Trofie with pesto. The lasagna was delicious. It was served different than what we are used to, sort of cut up, but it was easier to eat this way. My husband's pasta was very good as well. For dessert we both ordered the house made Tiramisu which was absolutely delish as well. Then after we had inhaled our desserts, the came out with a plate of candies, truffles and yummy dark chocolate drops. We pretty much rolled ourselves out of there. An all around excellent meal with great service. We look forward to visiting Sanremo again and will definitely return to Vela d'Oro.

We sat outside and we're helped right away. We started with a salad and delicious baked bread with olive oil and balsamic my favorite! I ordered the lasagna and my hubby ordered the pasta with garlic and oil. Both were incredible. Like absolutely outstanding. Best lasagna I have EVER had I almost ate the entire thing. I had to stop myself. It was incredible I'm still dreaming of it. After our meal they gave us a complementary little desert bite which too was out of this world. 5 stars and not to mention so reasonable. We might even stop here again! If your in Sanremo you have to go here!!

Located right on the beach, we thought La Fontana would be a great option for dinner. The food was…read morefine, but the service was terrible. We were a group of 15 people, and the staff really seemed to have a problem with that. First, they served the main courses before serving the starters. Then, they forgot to bring five pizzas. Questions about menu items were answered very rudely. The waitress took away our jug of wine, even though there was still about half a glass of wine in the jug. Overall, the food was okay, but way overpriced (with the exceptions of the pizzas). I would not recommend this place to anyone.

I'm quite thrilled to be their first review. We were cruising along the seaside on the motorcycle…read moreinto Italy when I got it into my head that I MUST find gluten free pizza for lunch on our day trip. I knew we would be in San Remo around the noon hour so did some searching from the back of the bike (a big shout out to Rogers for making travel abroad with a cell phone affordable with their "Roam like Home" package that has allowed me to search for safe, gluten free food on the fly in Europe!). Anyway, on to the meal! The service was amazingly friendly and when I said the words "senza glutine" I was given a big smile and nod. We were told that if one doesn't make a reservation, it takes 40 minutes to make a pizza - this is absolutely reasonable because they have a separate wood fire oven dedicated to gluten free that needs to get heated up. We are on vacation and making things up as we go so we were happy to sit on their beautiful patio and enjoy a seafood appetizer, red wine for me and water for my bfriend while we waited. My gluten free friends, it is well. Worth. The. Wait. Incredible pizza!! It is exactly how an Italian pizza should be! Soft, crispy, chewy and charred a little from the oven. Oh yeah - they brought bread to the table with the seafood platter and as it was placed on the table, it was with a big smile and a reassuring "senza glutine". It was crispy like a crostini and a perfect accompaniment along with some high quality olive oil. What a treat. I will be smiling the ride back to France.
