Arrivati all'ultimo minuto senza prenotare e ci hanno fatto accomodare in un angolino splendido con la panca!!!servizio velocissimo e molto cordiale..cibo abbondante e buono... consigli vivamente

Se vuoi un ambiente caloroso dove poter mangiare pesce di ottima qualità, cucinato con stupenda semplicità che fa esaltare la freschezza e la qualità, condito e accompagnato da ottimo olio e verdure genuine vai da Guido della Taverna Mandragola, che sa consigliarti anche ottimi vini che accompagnano le tipologie dei piatti ordinati. Ottimi anche i dolci, e fra tutti 8l fegato al basilico che io consiglio di gustare col l'ottimo olio sempre presente a tavola. OTTIMO !!!

Pranzo eccellente all'insegna della qualità. Abbiamo mangiato ravioli liguri con carciofi e pecorino e una tagliata di manzo con carciofi. Il primo piatto delicato ma dal carattere deciso, dove la sapidità del formaggio esaltava perfettamente la freschezza del carciofo. La tagliata di manzo con carciofi e stata cotta a puntino, tenerissima e di ottima qualità. Un’esperienza culinaria che valorizza le materie prime con maestria. Torneremo sicuramente!

We enjoyed a great Ligurian meal at Taverna Mandragola in Cervo, Italy. The linguine and ravioli were freshly made with seafruit and porcini. We also enjoyed the tasty tuna steak and the pesce Spada (swordfish).

We stayed in the area for two weeks and had our best meal here! The bruschetta was amazing, the gnocchi were fantastic, and the king prawns with spinach and a small salad were delicious. Great value for money and a very friendly waitress made the experience even better. Highly recommended!

Best homemade style Italian food I’ve ever had. Delicious, huge portions, great value. Brilliant and cheeky service. Best restaurant in Cervo.

La Taverna Mandragola is a great place to go to if you like to eat great Italian food. They don't serve pizza but really delicious Gnocchi, Ravioli and other great noodle dishes. The noodles are served in a pan. If the weather is good, try to get a seat at the terrace. There you might get a seat with Oceanview. We've been there with 13 people and it was a great time. The waiters are speaking mainly Italian.

Ciao, le porzioni erano abbondanti e buone. Sono soddisfatto e potrei dire che sono 10/10 calamari fritti soddisfatto

Ottima cena! Consiglio i ravioli al baccalà e il polipo alla griglia!! Porzioni generese, servizio impeccabile. Veramente consigliato! Top!

Abbiamo ordinato due piatti deliziosi. Ventresca di tonno e agnello alle verdure. Entrambi eccezionali ma forse leggermente sopra alle aspettative il conto, in due 60€ per un piatto a testa (seppur di ottima qualità) e da bere solo acqua

Il posto è carino,caratteristico. Abbiamo mangiato molto bene,dal pesce alle verdure(carciofi saltati strepitosi)..... I piatti sono molto abbondanti,non siamo riusciti a finirli....conviene regolarsi prima di ordinare!

Piccolo ristorante fra le vie di Cervo, pochi coperti. I piatti sono buoni e abbondanti, prezzi alti, primi e secondi dai 20€ in su. Meglio prendere solo una portata, viste le porzioni.

La taverna Mandragola è risultata la nostra scelta per il pranzo di ferragosto durante la visita di borgo Cervo. Dopo aver consultato le numerose recensioni eravamo entusiasti di assaggiare i piatti consigliati da molti altri e devo dire che le nostre aspettative sono state soddisfatte: tenerissimo il polpo alla brace, ben cotti i calamari, forse tipica, ma meno speciale la pasta al pesto artigianale. A fronte di tutto questo, comprendo anche il disappunto di alcuni recensori che hanno dato giudizi severi nei confronti del servizio e del locale; pochi i coperti disponibili, veramente vicini l'uno all'altro e per questo molto rumorosi e scomodi; apparecchiata poco curata come la pulizia dei posti a sedere, un po' polverosi. Ulteriore confusione viene generata dai numerosi menù, distribuiti in parte, sulla parete d'ingresso del locale, in parte su una lavagnetta, in parte sul menu e in parte su un foglio scritto a penna; se tutti i prezzi scritti erano rintracciabili, si aggiunge una parte del menù detta per via orale senza prezzi e in gran fretta; Piccoli accorgimenti, una maggiore cura e cordialità renderebbero questo locale degno del cibo che viene servito, squisito e dei suoi prezzi, un po' al di sopra della media.

Piatti molto abbondanti e abbastanza buoni (anche se la mia pasta non era particolarmente saporita). Camerieri gentili. Il conto un po’ salato: la pasta costava 22€, mentre il filetto di tonno – decisamente più giustificato – 28€. Essendo il locale di proprietà peruviana, consiglio di provare il ceviche: ne abbiamo visti passare diversi piatti e l’aspetto era davvero invitante.

15/01/26-Trovata chiedendo a dei muratori dove loro andavano a mangiare, e mi hanno suggerito la Mandragola. In effetti ha prezzi più alti della concorrenza, però hanno porzioni più abbondanti della concorrenza preparati bene e di qualità . Se ritorno a Cervo ripasserò di qui sicuramente

Ritornata per la terza volta dopo tanti anni, le volte precedenti abbiamo mangiato meglio. Questa volta abbiamo trovato la qualità sempre buona, ma alcuni abbinamenti non ci sono piaciuti e il conto in compenso è salito molto. Spazi stretti e abbiamo sofferto molto il caldo, le volte precedenti avevamo potuto mangiare fuori ed è stato più piacevole. Servizio insomma.

Our experience was very hit and miss. Two "primi" were quite good, but then two "secondi" were not up to the price tag at all. The service was very friendly, but then the dishes for the table were arriving with big time intervals between them. The decoration was nice, but the there were a lot of product boxes and appliances haphazardly lying around. They are trying, but can't really justify the asking price for the main dishes.

Big disappointment since last time! After an anding experience 2 years ago, I decided to go back with 8 friends, but what a disappointment :-( They were expensive and seem to be even more than before. The quality price doesn't reflect such a steep price for the reasons: - The sauce aigre-douce on the fish was definitely something from a bottle from the Chinese store. I can do that at home too in that case!!! - The beef tartare was the worst tartare I have ever had. I understand that it's not made like a French or British tartar with the egg yolk and the condiments, but rather like the "Battuta al coltello di fassone piemontese" but still...it was disgusting really! I love battuta but this was just plain meat with very little oil on it and zero spices or anything to bring flavour. - The Capon macro was OK but I had way better and for less than 18 euros! It was made in a big dish and then cut into pieces. A good restaurant would make it more like a nice tower and specially for this price! - When someone orders a starter with Zucchini trombette, you should tell them that the main course they ordered also comes with Zucchini trombette, specially when it doesn't say what the side dish is with the main course on the menu. What a lack of professionalism!!! - Service was...just friendly. A smile doesn't cost much! It went from 5* to barely 3* for me! What a shame :-(

Alhoewel ik wat laag zat (en niet heel lang ben) kon ik dineren met uitzicht op zee en de zonsondergang. Echt heel mooi. Although I sat relatively low (and I am also not very tall), I had a beautiful seaview during dinner, and could also see the sunset. Very pretty. Besides the big plus, there were also points for improvement. The staff didn't seem to be in a happy mood en did not ask our table(guests) if the food was right or if we wanted dessert. They just didn't came at all to check on us after serving the plates, although they did came by the other tables around us many times. Sidedishes of multiple people were conjoined to one bigger portion. The sauce we also ordered, was barely a portion for one person. I found the dishes relatively expensive compared to other restaurants and their similar dishes. The salad that I had, wasn't really a salad. It had lettuce on the plate with the most minimal (neutral) dressing I ever had. The meat was supposed to be medium (like ordered), but it turned out to be a very very rare version. The outside was charred (black) on the grill stripes. Didn't really like it, although expensive. Because of this experience and the lack of opportunity to order dessert, we decided to head home and get dessert elsewhere. Staff also did not spoke English (or refused to do so, dont know), so keep in mind that making a reservation over the phone has to be done in Italian. Despite a reservation and a correct confirmation, they weren't clear about our presence (where to sit, knowing about the reservation etc.). Finally: the menu is also strictly in Italian and some dishes can only be ordered for two, others can be ordered individually. That was confusing for some of our table guests, and the slightly irritated server did not help with making a decision about that :). I see a restaurant with opportunities and good reviews, but also alot of room for improvement. Those improvement points can easily be fixed with training of staff for example.

Abbiamo ordinato due antipasti e due primi e dell'acqua , che la cameriera ci ho proposto fuori dal menù. La qualità dei piatti è da mensa serviti con tempi di attesa lunghi . Alla fine abbiamo paga…

Food is not right, bread is stale and old from days ago. Lasagna has nothing to do with lasagna, but more with pulled pork or beef. Pasta is the fantasy type and not al dente. They serve red wine warm, if you call them out to that they say it is tradition in the region, and, ... Yes they do think it is you being rude. DO NOT GO, cheap asian rip off of good quality Italian food. - YOU NEED TO BE ASHAMED - Dont believe me, walk in, the the place is an oven.
