This was our first time to Cinque Terre and needless to say we will not be returning. We participated in Restaurant Week and expected any array of dishes that spoke of the restaurant. For starters, our waiter was rude and condescending. Not appreciated especially when we spent over $100. For appetizers I had the fritta (fried shrimp) and my husband had the Kobi beef. The sauce for the shrimp had no flavor and the shrimp were cold. The Kobi beef had absolutely no flavor, which led us to believe that it was not Kobi beef. For entrees, I had the roasted duck was was good, however the great northern beans and broccoli rabe did nothing. The other entree was the house sausage, which had no flavor and looked like mush.
Pros: Roasted duck was prepared correctly
Cons: Staff, service, preparation of food, taste of food
