Housed within the enchanting Villa Crespi, a Moorish-style architectural gem built in the 19th century, the restaurant beckons gourmands worldwide. Stepping inside, guests are immediately transported to luxury and elegance. Glistening chandeliers, intricately carved woodwork, and plush furnishings pay homage to the villa's storied past, while the attentive staff offers a modern touch of impeccable service. At the helm of this culinary temple is Chef Antonino Cannavacciulo. Chef Antonino, a celebrated figure in the world of gastronomy, has masterfully crafted a menu that marries his southern Italian roots with Piemonte's rich flavours and traditions. Each dish is a symphony of textures, colours, and tastes—showcasing his deep respect for ingredients and innovative culinary techniques. Seasonal, locally sourced ingredients are the stars of his creations. Think delicate agnolotti filled with a burst of Piemontese cheese, drizzled with a fragrant truffle sauce, or a perfectly seared seabass, its crispy skin juxtaposed against a bed of saffron-infused risotto. And, of course, his signature desserts, which are as much a visual delight as they are a treat for the palate.

Ristorante Guido

$$$$ Lungomare Guido Spadazzi, 12, 47924, Rimini
Italian Fine dining Elegant & Chic
It is a sincere sea story of Gianluca and Gianpaolo Raschi: the hut built by grandfather Guido on the sand in 1946, their mother Tiziana, who falls in love with Flaviano Raschi, a musketeer from Riccione, the charcoal for cooking fish to eat as a family. In 2001, together, they embarked on a new path, transforming that typical and simple Romagna restaurant, where they grew up between the Adriatic seafood cuisine and the bar counter, into a place different from the image of the past, still evident in their memories. From Guido, the respect and love for the sea on the horizon have remained unchanged. Each dish is linked to an emotion or an ethno-flavour that prudently explodes on the palate with every bite. Guido Restaurant is located in Rimini.

The restaurant is bright, hospitable and created as an open space without walls and doors, but a series of niches and nooks that create spaces for intimacy. Where does Chef Peter Brunel draw his inspiration from? Ingredients. He believes that food design begins with science, study and research. He believes that chefs must start by learning every secret of each ingredient – and only then can they start to create the new. At his restaurant, Peter Brunel offers both à la carte menus and tasting menus. The dishes present his philosophy of respect for and experimentation with ingredients; the gourmet food he creates exhibits his years of learning and travel. At lunchtime guests have the opportunity to do a fast culinary experience. With a menu of three courses and aimed to exalt two or three ingredients, the dishes are quickly crafted – but without compromising quality.
