Ottone I

Two nights ago I went to this restaurant with my family, I had been wanting to do it for a long time, but the last year has not been a peaceful period and I have always put it off. Everyone I have met since I have a house in Sarzana told me that Ottone I was the best restaurant in the area. I am not a customer who gives discounts to restaurateurs, one thing particularly bothers me, good raw materials cooked badly. At Ottone, this did not happen, Lucia and Remo take extreme care in choosing the ingredients and in their dishes they bring out the quality. For starters I was served a slice of tuna, with onions and a generous sprinkling of truffle, to follow I ordered shellfish on a julienne of vegetables, my wife chose the white cod with coppery onions, to finish two desserts, I really appreciated the babà with cream and strawberries, not too soaked in rum, which would have covered the flavors. I did not fail to spy on the plates of the next table, who opted for a spaghetti with shellfish, not contaminated, as often happens, by tomato to leave the flavor of the fish sauce intact. Ultimately, satisfied with the kitchen and the managers.

The best restaurant in Sarzana, without a doubt. The location is very pleasant, with the added bonus of dining in a lovely garden. All the staff are very welcoming, and customers are well looked after. In addition to the well-designed menu, this restaurant strives to ensure customers receive only the highest quality, freshest ingredients. For this reason, the prices are completely in line with the offerings. Ottone I was a truly wonderful discovery. Kudos to the entire staff, keep up the good work!

A local recommended it to us, and we're glad he did. The food was spectacular, the service impeccable, and especially the attentiveness of a woman who seemed to be the owner, who guided us through the experience. I hope to return soon.

We had dinner at the beginning of September and ate in the splendid "garden": a decidedly welcoming place. The quality of what we ordered was of the highest level, dishes with exceptional raw materials and impeccably prepared. We took an appetizer, a first course and a dessert each, water and a 375 ml bottle (always nice to find them on the menu when you have two adults and two girls at the table). The waiting times between one course and another (also guaranteed of care) are perhaps a little long but the company, beauty of the place and atmosphere made them acceptable. Medium-high prices (also depends a lot on the dish chosen). A general reflection: the growth in prices in catering has been a constant in the last two years and it is therefore important for us to always find the best possible quality. Ottone I was the right choice for us for a nice dinner in Sarzana.

A pleasant surprise. A small, welcoming oasis. The attentive and professional staff. The dishes were carefully prepared and presented. I particularly appreciated the delicate flavors and the simple yet sophisticated pairings. The busiate pasta was delicious. The smoked octopus carbonara was excellent. The warm appetizers were surprising. For the main course, I was fortunate enough to taste a rare and excellent morone. Finally, the desserts were unusual, delicious yet light. Thank you for the evening.

Excellent service, hospitality and quality of raw materials, wide choice of wines, the price is important but fair compared to what is proposed

Everything was perfect, fabulous food and impeccable service. I would remove the mosquito coils and the people smoking standing at the bottom of the garden because they take away the magic of the aromas of the delicious dishes served here.

A meticulously curated restaurant with an intimate, classy atmosphere. Carefully crafted, fresh dishes are chosen based on seasonality and quality. I ordered a seafood salad and a main course, morone with vegetables (similar to amberjack). To finish, a complimentary homemade croccante (crispy pastries) and zuppa inglese (trifle). An excellent sparkling Vermentino to accompany the drink.
