Osteria della Cipolla Rossa In Tropea

Wow, really great! From the host, to the food, to the wine, everything was just super delicious. This is worth the money if you like very good food!

Absolutely incredible. Romy's food is prepared with such care and is both simple and utterly nuanced. I will always remember eating the pasta with prawns essence of anchovy hearing the waves breaking gently in front of me. Romy's husband Michele is the ultimate host, funny, friendly, generous and knowledgable. If you get the opportunity to eat at this tiny Osteria you will not regret it. Grazie mille Romy and Michele.

Tonight was a special experience. A journey of sorts. This particular restaurant was featured on Stanley Tucci’s Searching for Italy. The food was extraordinary. Made with fresh ingredients and of course the famous Tropea onion. Michele, the owner was something of a marvel. His story was heart warming. If I’m being honest as he spoke of his grandparents and their journey it brought tears to my eyes. His story was my story. Tho we live across the ocean the food prepared bridges the gap. We are friends … familia. A beautiful evening.

Wonderful hospitality in a beautiful location by Romy and Michele. We enjoyed one of the best meals ever and felt like we had gained knowledge of the treasured food of the area with the Tropea onion being a star. Every dish we were served was delectable and refined yet still humble and sincere. The accompanying wine was delicious too. I'm really thankful that we got to enjoy this Tropean experience and highly recommend it
