It should be noted that it was the first time thanks to the advice of a trusted friend, but let's not dwell on it. Catia, the hostess if not fantastic sommelier, the location is warm and welcoming, you feel truly pampered, and we come to the piece de resistance, the cuisine, something of inexplicable, continuous research on the territory, care in the preparations maximizing what this generous area of Calabria offers. Stopping for lunch or dinner with them is like entering a forest full of perfumes of sensations and experience where every dish is a surprise, for me it deserves a few stars. Trying is believing, for now thank you for this magnificent experience

Warm atmosphere of an Osteria from an almost lost time, but which makes you fully relive the typical local traditions and flavours. Poor bean and chicory soup... delicious, like the homemade cavatelli with meat ragout (Tagliolini and scrapings were finished, the pasta is handmade daily and all the preparations are in real time... so a little healthy and patient waiting that is worth the quality is a must). Ditto scalloped black pig from Calabria, finally cod stewed Mormannese style with pepper, we finish with buccunotti stuffed with cherry jam served with hot sweet liqueur.
Very patient with our 3 children, Catia the fantastic hostess and guide in the choice of dishes and their story, origin, history, unique guide.
Well done, well done, well done at renewing the tradition and goodness of Pollino, a recommended stop on the way down Mormanno or up the exit of the Campotenese motorway.

Right from the start, Osteria del Vicolo stands out for its affability and courtesy. Catia knows how to fascinate you with stories relating to the place and the products, valorising local production and suggesting dishes with a captivating taste. A journey into the flavor of Calabria, through the kindness of an adequate presentation that respects the customer's personality. We absolutely must return.

Typical tavern, but with that touch of class that makes you feel at home and at the same time in an elite environment. Francesco and Catia are two excellent hosts, they put you at ease, while with traditional dishes and glasses of wine they take you into their culinary world accompanied by an expert explanation of everything that is offered to you. Excellent pizza!
Coming back will be a pleasure!

Good quality food, good choice of Calabrian wines. Few tables with a welcoming environment. In our opinion, the lady who is passionate and competent in oenology should limit the taste-olfactory description of the wines and leave more space for the customer's sensations. An exhausting wait, which compromised the success of the evening. Dinner lasted more than two hours for an appetizer and a first course. The inconvenience could happen in the kitchen, but no one from the restaurant apologized to us or did anything to fix it.

Ottimo cibo, grande cordialità ma sopratutto una notevole selezione di vini che non ti aspetti da una piccola osteria. Abbiamo bevuto degli ottimi vini naturali.

Eravamo di passaggio a Mormanno, e abbiamo voluto provare questo locale spinti anche dalle recensioni brillanti. È stato un viaggio fantastico tra storie del territorio e sapori, guidati dalla sapiente narrazione della sommelier che ci ha ammaliati con i suoi racconti. Piatti eccezionali abbinati ad un vino perfetto. Consigliatissimo.
