Geppy's Bistro
Ligurian Bistro next to the Market Hall
Geppy's is located in the heart of Ventimiglia, just a few steps from the train station and market hall. The decor is modern and elegant, the atmosphere bustling – at lunchtime, lawyers, brokers, and business people from the area come here. If you want a seat after shopping at the market hall, you should be there by 12:15. After that, it gets crowded.
The cuisine combines Ligurian tradition with creative accents. The focus is on freshly caught fish, but the meat dishes are also convincing. The daily specials change at lunch, the portions are fair, and the price-performance ratio is right.
In the evening (weekends only), the menu becomes more sophisticated: Brandacujun di stocco – the Ligurian stockfish mash, creamy and spicy. Grilled octopus on potato cream. Stuffed sardines as an appetizer. The Primi are dominated by homemade ravioli and pasta with bottarga.
The team is young, attentive, and speaks Italian, French, and English.
