From Calabria. We went with friends, stumbling upon it.
The owner, exquisite in his manner, saved us from an evening that seemed lost.
He made some changes to the menu. The octopus salad with onion and cucumber was amazing, the shrimp cocktail with sesame seeds (I think!).
The pepperoni cruschi were incredibly crunchy. The pizzas were excellent. The fried shrimp and calamari were top-notch, the tuna steak was very delicate.
Everything was absolutely perfect.

We'll be back. And we will. Thank you.

Warm and very welcoming place, the owner Mr. Emanuele is very kind and affable, I ate pizza and appetizers on a Saturday evening, then we went for lunch, the restaurant was full but despite everything the waiting times were not long, praise must also be given to the service, I recommend it 🥰

An authentic and memorable experience. Ristorante Guasti Lucani captivates with its authentic cuisine, showcasing Lucanian flavors with elegance and passion. Each dish is meticulously crafted, using fresh ingredients and unique pairings.
The service is impeccable: courteous, attentive, and never intrusive. The staff welcomes guests with warmth and professionalism, making every guest feel at home.
The atmosphere is refined yet welcoming, a perfect balance between tradition and modernity. A gem for those seeking not just a good meal, but a true journey through Lucanian flavors.
Highly recommended.

Family dinner (6 people) on a Saturday evening. The service was prompt and accurate despite the room being full. The dishes were typical of Lucanian cuisine and absolutely impeccable. The price was average. The location is quaint and clean, inside the baronial castle. Highly recommended!

We were passing through and were greeted with extreme kindness—it may seem obvious, but it isn't. The owner found us a seat even though we hadn't booked and the restaurant was full (two birthdays). Great attention to local products and the cuisine (run by his wife) is truly excellent, with a touch of experimentation. Very fair prices for the quality of the products used, and a comfortable atmosphere. It's a shame we can't become regulars due to the distance, but if we were to visit again, we wouldn't hesitate to return. I highly recommend it, both for the food and for the heartwarming, genuine smiles.

Excellent venue, impeccable service, carefully selected, high-quality products, and the icing on the cake is the location—Policoro's Baronal Castle. Highly recommended.

New review for the new location. We've moved to the Castello di Policoro. The location is truly beautiful and well-kept: a huge step up in quality. The pizzas are always excellent; we tried two new ones, which were truly delicious.
What can I say, confirming what I've already said... Pino and Mariella are always the best! Congratulations and best wishes.

The Lucanian appetizers are truly delicious, excellent, and plentiful. The pistachio tagliolini are spectacular. A restaurant where you can eat well without spending a fortune, with excellent service and a lot of courtesy.
