MOLO G in Portoferraio is a portside tavern located within the Esaom shipyard on the island of Elba. It offers a genuine and sincere seafood cuisine.
It was born 10 years ago from the love and passion for genuine and quality food by Pietro Olivari and Luca Saglimbeni.
The two friends chose to create a haven of taste in this unconventional place that had been closed for a while. And so, they breathed new life into it.
The basic idea is to eat, especially good fish, while admiring the hulls of all sizes docked at the "G" dock, the taut fenders, the sails ready to set sail... imagining arrivals and departures.

THE PLACE
The place is very unique. It resembles the bazaar of a port city. Old objects that evoke the sea hang from the walls of a large, bright warehouse.
The tables have marble tops, as was customary in the taverns of the Livornese province. The chairs are all different from each other.
Every object contributes to making the tavern imaginative and fun. Never ordinary. Just like the menu, written with chalks on a large blackboard.
It′s an ideal place even just for sipping a good glass of wine on comfortable sofas that seem to have come from the deck of a brigantine. In the summer, lunch and dinner are served directly on the pier.

Our fish preserves
The Tonnina is the typical dish of Elban fishermen. They used to prepare it with the less valuable parts of the tuna, but no less flavorful for that reason. It was also used by farmers to season bread and tomatoes or boiled potatoes.
Salt and patience, indeed, the ingredients, in addition to the fish. Rediscovering it and re-proposing it in a more refined version made of real tuna fillets and bluefish, was a tribute to the island.
The processing of the raw material is strictly controlled to create canned fish with ancient flavors. The humble but substance-rich fish reigns supreme (from anchovies to little tunny), with high nutritional values, treated in the old-fashioned way, in brine or in oil.
You can find the appealing and colorful packaging of the various products in the best gastronomies and wineries on the island, but you can also taste them in some niche shops on the "mainland".
