🐟 Experience

What makes Pesce Balla special?
Pesce Balla is that exact moment when you sit down, look up… and the sea is right there in front of you.

The fish is fresh, the wine flows naturally, and time slows down just enough for you to enjoy it all.
It’s not just dinner — it’s a feeling that stays with you.

Can I choose my fish?
Yes. And that’s where it all begins.

You walk to the counter, look at the catch of the day, and choose what inspires you.
No filters. No surprises. Just the sea, as it is.

🍽️ Menu

Do you offer a fixed menu or à la carte?
We work à la carte, following the rhythm of the sea.

Something changes every day, because the catch is never the same.
And that’s exactly why you’ll want to come back.

Do you have alternatives to seafood?
Yes — because every table is different.

Alongside seafood, you’ll find:
– World Champion 2024 pizzas
– focaccia al formaggio
– a small, carefully selected range of dishes

So no one has to adapt. Everyone finds their place.

Do you have options for vegetarian, vegan or gluten-free guests?
Yes.

We offer a dedicated menu for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and intolerant guests.
Because feeling comfortable at the table should never be a challenge.

🍷 Wine

What wines do you serve?
Wine here is not just a detail.

It connects everything — the food, the moment, the people.
From our Vinaccieri wines to carefully selected labels, every glass has a reason.

📅 Booking

Do I need to book?
It depends on how much you care about the moment.

Some tables — the ones you really want — don’t stay available for long.
Booking is the best way to make sure nothing is left to chance.

Can I walk in without a reservation?
You can try.

Sometimes you’ll find a table.
Sometimes you’ll wish you had booked.

Do you accept groups?
Yes.

Whether it’s a dinner with friends or something to celebrate, we organize everything in a simple, natural way.

🐶 Can I bring my dog or pet?
Of course.

At Pesce Balla, four-legged friends are always welcome.
We know they’re part of the family — and we treat them that way.

There’s always a bowl of fresh water ready for them, especially on warmer days.
So you can enjoy your dinner while they relax by your side.

⚠️ Allergies

Do you handle allergies and intolerances?
Yes, with care.

Let us know in advance and we’ll guide you through the best options.
As our kitchen is shared, cross-contamination cannot be fully excluded, but we handle every request with attention.

📍 Location & Parking

Where is Pesce Balla located?
In Sestri Levante, overlooking the Bay of Fairy Tales.
A place where the sea is not just a view, but part of your evening.

Where can I park?
You can park just a few steps from the restaurant:

– along the seaside promenade, very close by

You arrive, step out of the car… and you’re already almost at the table.

Is it suitable for a romantic dinner?
Let’s just say:

some come for dinner.
some leave with a memory.

contacts

Pesce Balla is located at the end of the seaside promenade, just a few steps from the Carugio, the main street of the historic center of Sestri Levante, in the province of Genoa.
We’re halfway between Portofino and the Cinque Terre, in a charming village that’s worth discovering all year round – not just in summer.

Getting here is easy: we’re just a few minutes from the motorway exit and the train station.
The restaurant sits right on the water, inside the small marina, overlooking the beautiful Bay of Fairy Tales, just on the edge of the pedestrian area and the historic center – full of little shops, hidden corners, and only steps away from the iconic Bay of Silence.
