The story
In the heart of La Spezia, Andree offers a new kind of contemporary dining. The kitchen is the focal point of the restaurant, visible from the street, welcoming both guests and passers-by. It merges with a dining room that pairs the historic stone walls of a medieval building with clean, modern design. This same balance defines the cooking of chef Andrea M Besana: seasonal, local ingredients and traditional recipes, refined with contemporary techniques.
The menu changes every month and follows the rhythm of the seasons. Local raw ingredients are treated with precision and respect, combined for taste, consistency and texture. Guests can choose from the monthly carte or let the kitchen guide them through one of the tasting menus, built around individual preferences. The wine list starts with a broad selection of the best local labels and extends to interesting Italian and international bottles, with a special focus on high-quality natural wines.
The restaurant has been consistently selected by the Michelin Guide for Italy, most recently for the 2026 edition – a recognition that speaks to the steady quality of this young, dynamic team led by Andrea M Besana and Andrea. The service is professional and detail-oriented, aiming for an unforgettable gastronomic experience.
Andree is also part of Teritoria, a community of independent restaurateurs, hoteliers and travellers created by Alain Ducasse, sharing values of good eating and the art of living. A private room for up to eight people is available for events or business meetings, and the restaurant offers catering and private chef services for home events.
