Ho cenato in questo locale per caso, in quanto vicino alla Stazione di Piazza Vittoria. Che fortuna esserci passata! Cibo buonissimo, ma soprattutto PERSONALE ECCEZIONALE. Le ragazze sono di una gentilezza, pazienza, RARE. Consigliatissimo.

Zena Zuena è un locale perfetto sia per chi arriva da turista e vuole assaggiare le specialità locali mentre scopre il centro della città sia per i genovesi! Servizio impeccabile, personale veloce e cordiale, piatti tipici deliziosi, attentissimi alle intolleranze, nello specifico alla celiachia. In pausa pranzo siamo sempre lì! Continuate così! Grazie per il vostro impegno! Consigliatissimo!

Questa sera sono stata con la mia amica a mangiare la pizza, la farinata e le focaccette di Megli, concludendo il tutto con una bella torta della nonna 🤤 tutto lo staff è stato estremamente gentile e disponibile e siamo pienamente soddisfatte della serata . Ritorneremo sicuramente ! Sandra e Barbara ✨

Locale in centro molto accogliente e curato nei particolari. Molto carino durante le feste perché ci tengono a decorarlo a tema rendendo l'ambiente molto accogliente. È un ambiente silenzioso e il personale è professionale e molto gentile. Per quanto riguarda le pietanze ottime, le farinate sono qualcosa di eccezionale. Possiede degli antipasti, prevede l'opzione dell'aperitivo, qualche primo, focacce, farinate e dolci. Possiede anche delle ottime birre. Ideale per qualsiasi serata anche con gli amici, lo consiglio vivamente

Abbiamo preso in 2 una focaccia pizzata con le acciughe e un pezzo di farinata. La farinata era per i miei gusti troppo "cremosa", la focaccia pizzata aveva l'impasto un po' troppo crudo. Ottimi gli ingredienti. Nel complesso una bella esperienza e ci ritorneremo sicuramente perché ci ha trasmesso calore e passione. Rimane un ottimo compromesso tra locale elegante per fare cena o aperitivo. Consigliato, la prossima volta sceglierò altre leccornie.

Il locale è stato scelto per le esperienze personali molto positive in passato. Dovevamo festeggiare la laurea di nostro figlio e fin da subito non abbiamo avuto dubbi. Tutte le attese sono state rispettate, anzi si è andati oltre. Cocktail e cibo di grande qualità e molto abbondante che ha pienamente soddisfatto tutti gli ospiti. Ci siamo affidati a loro anche per la torta ed é stata in linea con il resto. Ultimo, ma non per questo meno importante, l'estrema gentilezza e disponibilità di tutto il personale, seguiti in particolare, anche nei giorni precedenti, dalla signora Sabrina. Una giornata speciale non poteva che chiudersi nel modo migliore. Inutile dire che continueremo a frequentare il locale con estremo piacere.

Se vuoi mangiare la vera farinata genovese è uno dei pochi posti da scegliere, idem per la focaccia al formaggio tipo Recco . Se poi volete concludere con un ottimo tiramisù al pistacchio farete la scelta giusta .... Provare per credere , come disse un tale ...... Buona farinata ! P.s. il personale è gentile e attento e ti coccola con porzioni abbondanti Alla prossima!

We ordered mini-Pizzas and were very happy about the taste and service.

The atmosphere is warm and simple. The service is excellent and and fast even on a Saturday evening. The Aperitivo deal is amazing and I would say the Farinata is the best I've had in Genoa

Andrew Martinez

Landed in Genoa and went out for dinner later on that night that was suggested by our host and we’re glad we had went there. Food and drinks were amazing as well as the staff that had served us, definitely recommend it either out on a date or with a group of friends or family.

Lovely place, central location, pleasant ambiance and super kind service! I looked for a place to have dinner later than the regular hours. This is one of the very few which still serves (delicious) food after 21:30. Totally worth it, will definitively come back next time I’m in Genoa :)

Łukasz Rzeźniczak

The place is located in a very nice and pleasant neighborhood. Francesca welcomed us warmly and was very helpful. Thanks to people like her this place is vibrant and the time spent eating and drinking passes in a very pleasant atmosphere. I definitely recommend it and I can't wait to visit again when I'm in Genoa.

Lorraine Lasky

This place is a must go in Centro, authentic Genovese cuisine with kind and helpful staff ! Highly recommend them for lunch or dinner! Come and try their trofie al pesto and minestrone!

Monet Lozano

Lovely staff who are so welcoming to English speakers, and the best pesto pasta I think I’ve ever had. 5 stars, definitely recommend! Thank you for the amazing service.

I highly recommend the house special — beautifully plated, bursting with flavor, and clearly made with love. The dessert was a showstopper: rich, decadent, and the perfect sweet ending. Service was exceptional — attentive without being intrusive, with genuine smiles that made the whole experience even more special. Prices were more than fair for the quality, and every bite felt worth it.Especially thanks to Alice :) Whether you’re here for a romantic dinner, a family celebration, or just treating yourself, this restaurant delivers in every way. I’ll definitely be back — and I’ll be bringing friends!

A True Taste of Liguria! I've had the pleasure of dining at Osteria Zena Zenua several times, and each visit has been a wonderful experience. The food is consistently delicious, offering authentic Ligurian specialties. I highly recommend the farinata, trofie al pesto, pizzata, and the savory pies—each dish is full of flavor and clearly prepared with care and tradition. The staff are always warm, welcoming, and attentive, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in. On top of that, the cleanliness of the restaurant is impeccable, which only adds to the overall comfort and quality of the experience. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Zena Zenua is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy genuine Ligurian cuisine in a cozy and friendly atmosphere. Can't wait to go back!

Great staff and amazing food. Their homemade pesto was my favorite. Our family enjoyed our lunch and experience. Would definitely go back.

Gudrun Klaff

Very nice little restaurant. The staff was very helpful and friendly, and I loved the food. I had a salad which is served in a dough basket. Would definitely come back.

Best pesto gnocchi we had in Genova! We ate here twice! Weekdays are okay but Saturdays get quite busy, and you may have to wait to be seated. The cheesecake is also amazing.

Justine Lau

Really enjoyed the farinata (sausage & rosemary). Then decided up see how their focaccia measured up. Also good (pesto). I couldn't finish it, so I packed it to go. On the drive home, I could smell the pesto, inviting me to gorge myself. I wish I was a local so I could enjoy such tastes regularly. But, I'm glad I got to try it at least once.

Ilias Fotopoulos

The pizza was absolutely amazing, bursting with flavors. The service was outstanding, fast, and incredibly polite. Even though the kitchen was closed, they served us, going above and beyond to accommodate our needs. A big thank you to the staff for their exceptional hospitality! I can't wait to go back and try more of their amazing pizza. Highly recommended!

Locale molto carino , ho assaggiato la focaccia al formaggio, molto buona così come la cheese cake. Le ragazze sono state molto gentili , accoglienti e sorridenti . Un esperienza positiva da consigliare

Era sabato sera e volevo gustare una focaccia genovese. Tutti i posti chiusi, ho trovato questo e posso dire che il cibo era buono, rustico. Personale alla mano e gentile.

Ed White

Zena Zuena is a terrific place for wonderful focaccia, desserts, and amazing Genevese specialties. Nothing fancy. Just great food in a casual setting with super-friendly service.

Anna Traverso (annatrave)

Very nice, the staff was lovely and the food very good! Big portions for relatively small prices and a nice selection of genovese food, recommended if you want to sample the local cuisine! We got some appetizers to share, a focaccia/farinata and twoo beers each and we spent 25€ per person

Marc Franz

As it was my last night in Genova, I decided to treat myself and had dinner at Zena Zuena. I ordered the margherita and to drink, a coke zero. For dessert I had the classic cheesecake. The pizza was good. I especially enjoyed the cheesecake. Friendly service and a nice atmosphere in a lovely part of Genova.

I was there for dinner, it was a place close to my hotel and it was working late and had good reviews. It was really busy and full but I haven't waited for a table too long. But then, I waited for more than half an hour for someone to get my order. Also a family next to me wanted to order something but then they just gave up and left. A group of people was also sitting there waiting to be served for at least 15 min and then they left. The staff doesn't pay attention to the guests. I realize that the place was busy, but they don't look over the place to see if someone needs anything. They just get you your order and go back in fast. The food was ok. I had farinate and a beer but I wouldn't return.

Siamo arrivati per un aperitivo, il locale era freddo Ci hanno portato i menù dei vini e dei drink. Quando ordiniamo chiedo alla cameriera come funziona e lei mi dice che nell'apericena ci sono due pezzi di pizza, due pezzi di farinata, qualche pezzo di panissa e qualche cucollo (pasta di pane fritta). Cerchiamo nel menù ma non vediamo il prezzo, solo al momento di pagare scopriamo che 4 apericene con due spritz una birra media, due dolci, e due estatè sono costate €110. Non sapevamo che 2 fettine di pizza, 1 di farinata 1 di focaccia al formaggio, qualche cucollo e qualche pezzettino di panissa costassero 16 euro a testa! Comportamento truffaldino della cameriera che non porta tutti i listini con i prezzi Esperienza pessima da non ripetere, andate al ristorante mangiate meglio e spendete meno!
