However, the attention of Romulus, the water in the tux, puts it into a high level category. OK, I don't know his name but he deserves a true Roman authentic title. From the old days of classic waiter capabilities and pride. He is the oldest and only serving staff wearing a tux. A man who is proud of his station and abilities. Attentive to the serving signatures of not only station but the entire restaurant, he quickly responds. You do not wait to have your completed the plates removed, you do not wait to get a refill on your water refilled, you do not wait to sit there with the questionable look on your face. Romulus is there when you need him if not before you need him! But only if you need him. It is a pleasure to see a man not only proud of his work but capable in a non-ostentatious way. I would return here for the food and service alone but would rush here to get his presence. And here again I found the classic Italian attention to detail: plates that keep your food warm!

We arrived at Porto Venere early in the morning. Most restaurants and stores weren't open. After…read moretaking in the beautiful scenery and touring the church, we stopped here for coffee. Luckily there was seating inside as it was very cold. The lady behind the counter took my coffee order. Our coffee was nice and strong. We also got focaccia which was good. The have wine, full bar, restaurant and gelato. They do have outdoor seating if it's a nice day. The entire village looks like fairy tale. I can imagine how nice it will be to eat/drink outside with that beautiful scenery. Restroom was clean.

We simply wanted to sit down for a bottle of Ligurian wine and enjoy the afternoon. The wine was…read moregood but the service ruined it! Our waiter was dismissive, unfriendly and downright rude! We didn't even ask anything of him. He just seemed to despise the fact that we were tourists. Unfortunate! The rest of our experience in Portovenere was wonderful, but we won't be back to Bar Doria.

Maybe it was the hike I had just done before stopping in to grab a slice, but this was the best…read moreslice of pizza I have had in recent times. Since the area is known for pesto that's what I went with and it did not disappoint! It was super creamy (honestly a little greasy) and the bread was slightly thick. Theres no where to eat inside but I walked across the walkway and found a bench to sit on. They also had some really nice focaccia slices with olives and tomatoes baked in. A "white pizza" with what looked like cheese and Alfredo also caught my eye but I'm really glad I went with the pesto. The cost for a slice and a bottle of water was only about 4 or 5 euros. 5 stars!

Really enjoyed it. I got the sausage and it was delish. The focaccia was soggy, either from the…read moretoppings or from sitting in the pan awhile. I loved it but my friend wanted it to be crispy. Either way I really enjoyed it. And I got a small wine to go which was perfect for hydration on the next leg of our hike!

This place popped up with good reviews, so we stopped in to order take out. It's in the old part of the city and very small, so after ordering we waited outside. After only about 5 mins, our hot delicious pizza was ready! They even cooked my gf pizza in its own container and didn't cut it to prevent cross-contamination. We took it back to our hotel room and just devoured it.. was seriously so good. I'm forever ruined to American gf pizza thanks to this experience.
