Awards 2018

20/10/2025: When you dine at Antica Filanda, you realize what true dining is all about: a warm welcome, attentive service, quality ingredients, excellent dishes, and a commitment to flavor. All this is accessible to everyone, because cuisine is culture, and culture belongs to everyone, to those who want to eat well and have a truly valuable experience. Here, we don't pluck chickens; we respect the customer.

18/10/2025: A superb hotel with a fantastic view, a lovely pool, and truly outstanding cuisine. The ladies in the kitchen truly conjure up amazing dishes in an incredible way! The staff are incredibly friendly and deserve a star. 🌟 We're back again this year! Everything is still great! The food has improved even further.

19/01/2025: Questo ristorante non ha uguali in provincia É superiore da ogni punto di vista Dalla assoluta originalità qualità gentilezza del personale Ho sentito con grande dispiacere che chiuderà

04/11/2025: Everything at the highest level, everything simply perfect.

23/10/2025: We came here especially for my birthday but it was a bit disappointing, unfortunately. We were the only people in the restaurant but the chef never came out and the staff didn’t speak English well which made things difficult. The food was good but not fantastic, as you’d expect. Not sure why; but they initially tried to convince me to get a ‘custom’ dish combination (without explaining the cost, since this option was not on the menu). When I refused and chose my a la carte option, they became a bit edgy and awkward, so the situation made me feel uncomfortable. Overall not what you’d expect for two stars.

16/10/2025: I was recently Good service and good fresh fish The prices are the only flaw, not for everyone

13/10/2025: Very attentive service, food and atmosphere

16/09/2025: Top-notch atmosphere and top-notch cuisine! Excellent value for money!

03/09/2025: A wonderful family experience. We thank you so much for the service, the generous truffle-laced dishes, and for the superb Barolo from the excellent wine list. We thank you.

03/11/2025: We went to Amorestaurant for a romantic dinner with our dog, and it was a truly wonderful experience. The staff was incredibly kind and attentive: by letting us know in advance that we had our dog, they reserved a secluded table for us, so as not to disturb other guests. This care and sensitivity is truly rare and deserves great praise. The cuisine is excellent: top-quality ingredients, carefully prepared dishes rich in flavor. Each course exudes attention to detail and passion. My only personal comment: I would have preferred the shells left raw and plain, rather than marinated like this—a matter of taste, but the dish was well executed. Elegant place, pleasant atmosphere, impeccable service, and top-quality food. Highly recommended for a special evening. We'll definitely be back!

26/10/2025: A welcoming restaurant with very friendly and professional staff. We had the tasting menu and I must say it was an extraordinary journey of flavors. The ingredients were top-quality. I highly recommend it.

04/09/2025: Good restaurant with gluten-free options.

29/08/2025: high prices (eggplant flan in particular)… good food but not excellent… really tasteful atmosphere

13/10/2025: A fine, popular trattoria. Make a reservation, otherwise you'll have almost no chance of getting a seat. Top-quality food!

13/09/2025: Beautiful, comfortable location, professional, and knowledgeable service. Tasty food, excellent meat. Average to high prices, appropriate for the service. Pleasant experience, recommended.

11/09/2025: Can’t even put into words how amazing this resort is—it feels like stepping into a Pinterest-worthy boutique hotel. We were warmly welcomed with drinks and a detailed introduction to everything the property offers: vineyard tours, a private beach, a private terrace with breathtaking ocean views, massages, and more. The rooms were spacious and beautifully decorated, the staff incredibly friendly, and both breakfast and dinner absolutely delicious. All in all, this has been by far the best resort experience we’ve had in Sardinia.

10/09/2025: We stayed here for our honeymoon and were very unimpressed due to the price we paid. The level of service, food, amenities, and overall accommodations does not meet the criteria of a 4-star hotel and its nightly rate. The waiter who does mornings was especially notable for our lower rating — he was cold and unaccommodating, making us feel as though we were a nuisance. Be wary that all the plated “American” breakfast they advertise on Instagram is an extra fee and not included, as well. The pool area is quite dilapidated, and the beach “club” was average. There is no sort of attendant or notable food choices either. Even the well-remarked dinner was mediocre. We chose to eat elsewhere every other night of our stay. It is pretty much the only “upscale” hotel in the area, which is why I believe the rate is able to be set so high. Overall, it is clean, safe, and set on beautiful grounds but simply did not meet 4star/$650+ (USD) a night service/amenity expectations.

18/10/2025: A certainty, a guarantee. Don Peppino, Pascal, and Arcangelo combine local tradition with innovation. Words fail to describe their kindness, expertise, and passion. We'll be back.

10/10/2025: A top-notch restaurant, with extremely courteous and competent staff. It was a pleasant lunch with excellent food.

21/10/2025: Nothing to Add. There are no words to describe this restaurant's cuisine. A true journey of discovery, using excellent, simple products revisited with a refined and sophisticated twist. A plus, beyond the dishes, is the service: impeccable, precise, and above all, attentive. Congratulations indeed. We will definitely be back soon, and thank you again for guiding us on this Calabrian culinary journey!

24/09/2025: A modern, sophisticated ambiance in a country house, with five delicious appetizers served as an edible aperitif (amuse-guele). The service was engaging and initially very fast; the antipasti were brought before the aperitif had finished. Even though only two tables were occupied on a Saturday evening, there was no need to rush. The quality of the dishes on the small menu was high, with fine preparation and beautiful flavors. One of the desserts was forgotten and only served after 10 minutes. Afterward, the manager disappeared to make a personal phone call; neither coffee nor digestif was asked for, and the bill was not brought either. While we were paying at the cash register, the phone was still on… so, despite the good quality, the experience wasn't entirely satisfactory.

10/11/2025: We celebrated our daughter's birthday and everything was perfect. Marino and his staff are fantastic, always smiling, which is not easy to find. The food was truly excellent!!! We'll be back soon!

02/11/2025: Magical place to have great local cuisine.

21/09/2025: The Academy isn't just a restaurant...it's a journey of flavors. And Cogliandro isn't just a chef, albeit an extraordinary one...he's an artist. The strascinati are the best swordfish and eggplant pasta dish I've ever eaten. Anyone who comes to Reggio Calabria cannot miss out on an experience in this wonderful place.

16/09/2025: We met Chef Cogliandro and his cuisine 12 years ago, and since then he has celebrated every anniversary. His cuisine is a crescendo of culinary experiences and sensations that highlight his love for the region and guide the palate in the discovery of extraordinary pairings. The dining room staff is always attentive and friendly, the view is enchanting, and the spaces are well-maintained. Beyond his cuisine, credit goes to the person: from the first moment we met him, he introduced himself as Filippo, a sociable, humble, and honest man who has fought on the front lines for the legality of the Reggio Calabria region. He also took two unaccompanied minors under his wing, teaching them the trade, leading them to great national recognitions. In short, eating at A Gourmet is an experience that is good not only for the palate but also for the heart. Go there! And you'll come back again.
