Osteria Le Colonne is a Ligurian restaurant in the historic centre of Genoa, a short walk from San Lorenzo Cathedral, where tradition meets our chefs' creativity. The sixteenth-century rooms of Palazzo Squarciafico hold thirteen stone columns and a medieval tower. Our cooks serve seasonal dishes from sea and land: Ligurian classics such as Genovese pesto and salt cod, alongside more creative plates for those looking for something new. Open every day, lunch and dinner, since 2019.
