Ristorante La Tavernetta In Spezzano della sila

Excellent traditional Sila food and impeccable service. The mushroom salad and creamed potato soup with 'nduja and caciocavallo are incredible. The traditional Scirubetta dessert, made the old-fashioned way, is out of this world. Definitely worth a try!

Lunch at the tavernetta is a unique experience. A pampering experience amidst the poetry of the Sila. Wonderful people who welcome you with kindness and courtesy. Excellent ingredients prepared following tradition but enhancing their flavor, aroma, and substance with originality. It's my favorite restaurant, my favorite chefs in Calabria. Thank you 🙏

Located in Camigliatello Silano, just steps from Lake Cecita and the Calabria National Park (Cupone), magnificent and enchantingly beautiful places in the Sila Mountains. La Tavernetta has proven to be a special place, where simplicity and tradition combine with research and innovation, resulting in a top-notch mix, a perfect blend of traditional and gourmet cuisine. A very extensive menu. For appetizers, we had a mix of locally sourced cured meats and cheeses and a fresh mushroom salad. We had two first courses: tagliatelle with mushrooms and ravioli with mushrooms and truffles. For the main course, we had sirloin steak of Podolica (a wild Sila cattle breed) and a tender Calabrian black pig roulade, both exceptional. Even the dessert, a handmade millefeuille, was superb. All expertly explained directly by the Chef, who conveyed his passion for cooking and his love for the flavors of his homeland with great warmth and empathy. The location, a typical Sila rural farmhouse, is elegant and welcoming in its simplicity. Exceptional value for money. We'll be back.

Gluten-free food available. I'm celiac and they have two pasta shapes available, the main courses are almost all gluten-free. The food is obviously of the highest quality, as already noted in the other reviews. The staff was very kind and helpful. I would have appreciated a greater availability of gluten-free first courses, but overall it was a great experience.

Very good food, perfect for dining at the hotel without having to go out again.
