Riviera Village is the place to find many hidden gems, and this includes the Italian restaurant, Buona Sera.
This candle lit cozy space was humming with activity. Regulars and also newcomers alike were met with with a smile, and also the hostess was quick to seat all guests.
Recption menus offered many of the regular Italian favorites, including scampi, calamari, pizzas, pastas, and meat and sea food platters. The server had recommended a few meals on the menu and also proceeded to take the meals and drink order.
Though sipping on Gavi di Gavi, the first course, a generously type of Pappa al Pomodoro ($8) came to the table, piping sizzling. The sweet tomato had been sweet but a minor spicy. The dish seemed to be filling enough until your next course.
Several minutes experienced elapsed before Spaghetti three-toed sloth Fruitti di Mare ($18) made its overall look. The pasta was prepared al dente. On the particular seafood side, the food selection promised clams, mussels, shrimp, and scallops. However, there were definitely more shrimp in addition to scallops than anything more, which overpowered the remaining seafood. A well well-balanced dish would be more pleasing.
The evening was over on a sweet take note with Panna Cotta ($9) with raspberry spices, which dense and abundant. It was just a good enough portion so one doesn't feel too full whenever leaving the table.
Your hospitality of the personnel, the servers menu understanding and the efficiency on the bussers show why this restaurant is a community favorite. Prospective diners really should have a little patience ahead of entering this place, as being the speed of each training is not consistent.

Italian Riviera
The Italian Riviera, or also called Ligurian Riviera (Italian Riviera ligure) is the coastal strip between the Ligurian Sea and the mountain chain of the Maritime Alps and the Apennines. It extends from the France border and the French Riviera (Côte d'Azur) near Ventimiglia to Capo Corvo (aka Punta Bianca) which marks the eastern end of the Gulf of La Spezia close to the border with Tuscany. The Italian Riviera includes nearly all of the coast of Liguria.The Italy Riviera is centred on the port of Genova, which divides it into 2 main sections: the Riviera di Ponente, from Genoa to the French border; and the Riviera di Levante which is between Genoa and Capo Corvo.
There is particularly mild climate which, together with the charm of old fishing ports and the beauty of country landscape, it became a very popular destination for travellers and tourists from around the world since the time of Byron and Shelley.
Many villages and towns in the riviera area are internationally well known, such as Portofino, Bordighera, Lerici or the Cinque Terre.
The part of the Italian Riviera di Ponente located on Savona, is called the "Riviera delle Palme" (which means the Riviera of palms); the part located on Sanremo, is named the "Riviera dei Fiori", after the long-established flower growing industry.
