DaV Mare Menu & Review
At Splendido Mare, A Belmond Hotel, Portofino, Italy
Harbourside casual fine dining on the Piazzetta, Cerea family partnership
DaV Mare is Splendido Mare's signature restaurant and one of the clearest reasons to stay on the square rather than only on the hill. Created with the Cerea family of Da Vittorio fame, it focuses on Mediterranean cooking with Ligurian ingredients, seafood, and a modern but convivial feel. Service aims for the warmth of coming home rather than stiff ceremony, which fits Portofino better than white-glove theatre. The harbourside setting means the room competes with one of Italy's most watched waterfronts, so book a terrace or window table when weather allows. Dinner is the destination meal; lunch works when you want to watch the boats without leaving the hotel.
