Dude go! I had been…read morecraving fried calamari and a nice walk along the water. This place is fast, clean and yummy. I also got the small fried fish because why not. The calamari was fresh and crisp while still being light. I got there at 11:30 so they had everything still in stock and it was filled with locals.

This was a beautiful spot by the ocean with a spectacular view and great food! Online downside is…read morethe food is very expensive for what you get (but I suppose you're really paying for the view). The pesto pasta was pretty good, but average. The seared tuna was SO good!!! It was so flavorful and cooked beautifully. The fish in the orange sauce was also nice, it was a sweet sauce which I was not expecting but it was good. My mom is a seafood pasta enthusiast and has tried seafood pastas everywhere from California to France and has become quite the critic. Her thoughts on the pasta: it was a bit dry but flavorful. She would probably not order the pasta again. The dessert was great but sooo tiny! I loved the chocolate soufflé but it was so small for €10!! The panna cotta too was amazing but so small. The tasting sorbets were interesting and refreshing, but again small portions.

The view is breathtaking, you can see all those small, colorful and old houses next to the sea.

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. The restaurant is quaint and many locals dine here. Service was impeccable and we can't wait to return the next time we visit. A hidden gem that I selfishly want to keep to myself!

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. Good portions and cooked perfectly. The problem we had is as the place started emptying, the staff started eating and essentially ignored the few who were left, unless you were a local. Recommend go early & you avoid that problem.

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.

There are actually two restaurants by the same name, owned by brothers, on each side of the square.
