Il Posticino opens as a focused seafood refuge in Albenga’s centro storico, where Mirella Porro cooks daily for a handful of guests. Il Posticino sits steps from the San Michele towers and near Piazza dei Leoni, making the walk to dinner part of the experience. From the first course you notice seasonal seafood and Ligurian ingredients driving the menu: clean textures, bright acidity, and a clear emphasis on fish and shellfish. The kitchen prepares dishes precisely, and the small dining room means food arrives at peak temperature and flavor. If you seek intimate, sea-centered Italian cooking in Albenga, book early and expect a close, attentive meal.
