BO.CA - Bottega Calabra In Tropea

We had dinner at this beautiful and romantic location in mid-September. We were craving some good meat! We found a delicious, high-quality burger and an excellent green peppercorn fillet! We chose to ask for two glasses of red wine, and the advice was greatly appreciated! We highly recommend it.

We visited this charming restaurant with some very dear American friends. We ordered several dishes, including steaks and gourmet burgers with a variety of well-matched and delicious ingredients. My only comment is that a small side dish should be included with the gourmet sandwich, as the price of the sandwich is rightfully high. Recommended!

May 2024 A group of friends and I went last night on the recommendation of other friends. We were delighted with everything! The person who served us was super kind and courteous, and also gave us great advice! The atmosphere is particularly pleasant, the soft lighting, the small square, and the white walls of the cathedral illuminate everything. And the food was delicious! I had the tuna sandwich; it was delicate and tasty at the same time. And not content with that, I wanted to try the pasta with ragù... an absolute delight!!! "Scarpetta" (to mop up the sauce) is a must! I would return to Calabria just for that! Top! August 2025 ...well..... after 2 months, the same friends shared a photo of a friend of theirs whom I had recently met... he was mopping up the sauce with that ragù I had adored... the same joy, the same heart-shaped eyes, the same passion for good things... he could only be my soulmate! ... May 2025 we got married... and in August we finally ate those tagliatelle together!!! In short... this ragù made us fall in love!!! Thanks guys!!! ♥️

One of the best places we visited on our vacation in Tropea, with a huge variety and top-quality food, and meticulously sourced ingredients. I'll definitely be back!

I was a little worried after seeing some of the negative reviews about the service, but I had a great experience. The service is informal, but everyone was friendly and helpful. As for the food, both the Carbonero sandwich and the tagliata were very good and tasty. The fries were also good, with several fun sauce options. Overall, everything was excellent, but I think the price is a bit high. A note for those who don't check the menu in advance: dry-aged meat must be ordered the day before.

Best burgers, with truffles! Also gluten free options

Excellent sandwiches, the price is a little higher than average

Excellent, especially the craft beer

Cena a base di carne e panini( pesce e carne) abbiamo assaggiato la battuta di manzo con tartufo veramente ottima fresca e saporita, dopo abbiamo scelto sia panini di carne che di pesce, tutto freschissimo saporito e veramente veramente buono, patatine fritte da giu di testa. Servizio veloce oserei dire velocissimo, personale cordiale e simpatico, titolare molto professionale e gentile, si è fermato a scambiare due battute con noi. Locale situato in un posto strategico ma con una vista stupenda. Locale super consigliato e vi consiglio di puntare sui panini che sono il loro cavallo di battaglia.

Alla Bottega Calabra non solo si mangia divinamente, ma ci si sente anche come se si fosse a casa. La passione, in questo magico angolo d’Italia, si respira a pieni polmoni. Veniteci se volete portare a casa il vostro miglior ricordo di Tropea.
