First we take your measurements.
Then we suggest what suits you.
Three tasting menus for different moments, with vegetarian, lactose-free and gluten-free options.
A cocktail list for every palate.
The menu is the same for everyone.
How we tailor it to you is not.
Gluten-free: there is airborne cross-contamination in our kitchen, not suitable for coeliacs.

Since 2017
In 2017 there was a coffee bar here.
The name LUNICO was already on the sign: we liked it and kept it.
Everything else we built from scratch.
In Genoa there were very few places to drink a well-made cocktail.
We promised ourselves one of them would be ours.
Once people try drinking well, they rarely go back.
How it started
Our first year.
A guest orders a Negroni, and we shake it.
He watches and asks: "you're not really shaking a Negroni, are you?"
He was right: you don't shake a Negroni, and that night it was on us.
That's where the courses, the travels and the study began.
Kitchen and bar
Kitchen and bar swap ingredients.
The goal is to play with the two worlds and blend them.
After all, if a pairing works on a plate, why shouldn't it work in a cocktail?
That challenge is where our recipes come from.
Our ribs marinate for 15 hours in ingredients taken from our back bar, then cook for another 15 at low temperature.
The Bandolero brings the kitchen into the glass: tequila, mezcal and a cold-extracted bell pepper & passion fruit cordial.
The fresh, green note of the pepper meets the agave spirit, and the passion fruit ties it all together.
It's the drink you'd hardly order just from reading the menu.
And it's the one that surprises the most.
And then there are the patatas, our signature dish.
A recipe stolen from a friend, hand-cut, twice-cooked, with homemade AiOli.
The mood of a cocktail bar, the service of a restaurant.
Our advice
When you sit down, we don't leave you alone with the menu.
First we take your measurements: we try to understand your taste.
Then we suggest something you might not have ordered on your own.
Our advice starts from your taste, not ours.
The category
In Genoa, aperitivo is almost always the same: you order a drink and a tray arrives.
The bar changes, the food doesn't.
Here it works like a tasting menu.
Choose a journey of 2, 3 or 4 courses: we bring them to your table one at a time and tell you about each one as it arrives.
The food has a fixed price; drinks you choose from the list.
We start here.
Can't decide? Ask for advice.
Finger Mix, and the Patatas in the middle.
The Patatas go, the board or the hummus arrives.
Tartare tasting.
Or vegetable balls.
Portata dopo portata: course after course, the order in which dishes leave the kitchen.
Lunico
Our drinks change often: this is today's list.
