"Loved it. The food, ambiance, staff. We had our favorite red shrimp, local olives, artichoke, oil, sea bass - all fish fresh and picked up this afternoon. I have celiac’s disease so I can’t have gluten - they made me gluten free pasta with Genoa pesto (famous to the region) - everything top notch. Couldn’t recommend more. Thank you to the staff and chef."

"An amazing treasure located a short day trip from Monaco. Amarea prepared fresh from the sea fish for us in a beach front, family friendly restaurant. The exceptional quality of the food makes it white table cloth appropriate and the patio dining complete with child's play area make it truly fantastic. My wife and I shared a ref snapper, brought to the table before it was cooked, after it was cooked, and fully prepared on our plates. No meal is complete without dessert and Amarea did not disappoint. I can't remember the names on the desserts but certainly save room. The whole experience was an amazing was to spend a lazy Sunday afternoon. After the meal we relaxed on the beach front recliners and watched the sunset. PERFECT!"

"I am sure to say Amarea is one of the best restaurants in Bordighera. High quality service, fresh food, nice atmosphere. Check pictures of the food we tasted. It was so tasty and so beautiful looks in plates. Price is normal for such level or restaurant. I attached the receipt. We visited Amarea after new opening in Mai 2021 and want to recommend you to make a reservation before you come, as they have a full pre-reservation."

"Fresh seafood, amazing views, great service. The best dining experience we had while travelling along the French and Italian Riviera. Lots of options on the menu for different budgets and a stellar wine list with a sizable organic selection."

"As others have noted the location is very nice down by the beach and the food is well prepared and tasty. I wasn’t able to score 5 though as the bill had an unexpected charge of 44 Euro for our party of four called “a testa” and I was not given the bill printout until after making payment so it was a bit too late to even ask about this extra charge. It turned a 150 Euro meal into a nearly 200 Euro meal for four. Otherwise a nice experience but I won’t return as it was a bit pricey for a modest amount of food."

"Great experience! Very decent wine list and top notch service. Food is very artistic and well decorated. The server changed our utensils every course and made very good recommendations on both food and wine. Regarding price: Yes there is €2.5/person seating fee but you enjoy the best sea view and high quality food It's also significantly better value than other major hubs on the coast. (we also tipped €20)"
