Zeffirino Genova
We chose the "Zeffirino" restaurant because of its popularity in Genoa City.
Its Google score attracted our attention, knowing that it is located in the city center.
Upon entering, we already had a table prepared. Nice and clean. There are lots of pictures depicting the history of the Zeffirino family, which I guess from conversations must be a very popular restaurant in the city.
We were welcomed with a glass of champagne, which turned out to be nice, and the staff were extremely friendly (in general).
The food was nice. But no big deal. The soup (traditional from Italy) was good, but nothing special. Portuguese cuisine has had this same soup, which is much better and tastier, for many years.
The lobster pasta was reasonable. No big deal for a restaurant located in a country famous for its pasta. And I say lobster because I only got two pieces on my plate. Unfortunate.
The most negative point was in fact the waiter (probably the restaurant's owner) who greeted all the tables with greetings and welcomes, completely ignoring the table I was at.
Bad manners to say the least.
Mr. "Zeffirino", a word of advice from someone with a keen eye and an exquisite palate. You should NEVER interrupt my almost complete dinner by cutting up my lobster (2 small pieces). If you want to be friendly, be so from the start when we enter your restaurant. And treat all the tables with respect and greetings. That's how you make a good owner and a good business owner.
A place not to return to.

San Carlo
San Carlo was an excellent choice in the city of Liverpool. It turns out to be a good option because Italian food is one of the best internationally.
The most positive points turn out to be the food that was really good and appetizing, the waiters are attentive and fast.
The most negative points turns out to be the noisy environment that makes it difficult for people to talk to each other even if the bar is at the entrance and the restaurant is more sheltered. Good facilities, modern place and with immense potential.
