For a while now, because I've been frequenting "al bivio" for a while, I've wanted to review the restaurant.
Unfortunately, due to personal and family issues related to health reasons, I've never found the time to do so.
Now, urged, I can no longer avoid doing so.
I won't go into detail; although "al Bivio" in Davoli Marina certainly deserves it.
Everything was excellent: from the professionalism, courtesy, and helpfulness of the manager, Sandrino Perri, and his staff; to the cleanliness of the premises, the table linens, the air conditioning, and, above all, the quality and deliciousness of the dishes served!
Ample parking is available in the surrounding areas, and the price is reasonable for the quantity and, above all, the quality of the menu.
My rating? 10+!

Calabria That Surprises and Redeems
If you're looking for a place that breaks down prejudices and warms the heart, this restaurant is a must-see. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, dominated by a room with a roaring fireplace that immediately invites you to relax. It's the kind of place you don't expect: refined in its simplicity, far removed from the usual stereotypes.
The Dining Experience
The Appetizer: The true star of the evening. A succession of typical Calabrian courses that celebrate tradition with care and the excellent quality of the ingredients. The selection of meat cuts is also excellent.
The Service: Impeccable. The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and always attentive, without ever being intrusive.
The Bill is average, with a fair and affordable quality-price ratio.
This place is not just a restaurant, but a symbol of the redemption of a region, Calabria, that has been unfairly labeled for too long. Here, tradition meets modern and impeccable management, demonstrating that excellence is at home.

Excellent place. Located on the street but quiet and very welcoming.
Excellent food.
The gnocchi with pecorino cream and crusco peppers were delicious.
The other dishes were the same. Flavors were bold yet delicate.
The staff were very friendly and professional.
The homemade dessert was exceptional.
Highly recommended.
