06/04/2025: We ordered a delicious, exceptional appetizer. Five stars also to Irene who served us at the table.
21/02/2025: There are only two places to fully enjoy the beauty of Scilla, excluding the sea and the sky: the belvedere of the bend on the provincial road, going towards Reggio, and the terrace of the Bridge.
Speaking of places of the heart, this is, with full rights, since the first time decades ago when, after a splendid day at the seaside, we went up to the Bridge and had dinner looking at the Rocca and the Marina. The view alone would be worth the choice. But there are many other reasons why the Bridge has become a fixed destination every time I am in these parts.
Meanwhile, the place is very large: even inside there are several rooms, usually differentiated between the restaurant part and the pizzeria part, and it is perfect for receptions. The terrace is the jewel in the crown: vast, open, suspended between heaven and earth, just like Scilla.
The food varies according to preferences: the pizza is excellent - from a wood oven, increasingly difficult to find -, but the à la carte menu also reserves excellent surprises. Especially for the catch of the day, which allows you to taste some of the typical dishes of the Costa Viola. Like the swordfish - if you are in the right period it will be very easy to have lunch while the swordfish (in Scilla they call them feluche) return to the port: excellent with salmoriglio, special in a roll. Fish reigns supreme, but the meat menu is also worth it. The choice of wines is excellent, with particular attention to local wineries, which now produce very respectable labels.
