Rocca Falluca In Settingiano

Excellent traditional Calabrian food. Good value. And, above all, a rustic, small but welcoming and clean location with always friendly and helpful owners. Recommended for lovers of authentic, even spicy, flavors.

Highly recommended restaurant. We started with a truly rich and tasty appetizer: quality cured meats, local rotisserie, and bruschetta prepared with authentic ingredients. The mixed grill was also perfectly cooked, accompanied by truly delicious local potatoes. You can sense the attention to quality ingredients and traditional cuisine. The service was friendly and the atmosphere welcoming.

The "rosticceria" is worth trying, offering an excellent selection of fruit, meatballs and potatoes, arancini, zucchini flowers, and courgettes, depending on the season. The adjective "rosticceria" used to describe them is reductive and demeaning; calling them "our fried foods" would be more appropriate and tempting. The brushette with "cigoli" are special. The appetizer is decent. Some of the first courses are excellent, as are others, such as pasta and chickpeas, and the "scolatelli" with goat's sauce, which deserves a special mention. The arrabbiata is particularly good, given the unusual presence of mushrooms. Among the second courses, chicken is a must. The homemade tart is truly delicious. The house wine is excellent, presumably a Cirò in bulk. The selection of bottled wines is noteworthy for its quality; the list is not long but satisfactory, focusing on Calabrian wines. There's no shortage of a menu that can be consulted on paper or via QR code, but it would be nice to provide one. The bill is always reasonable, which certainly guarantees excellent value for money. The air conditioning is excellent, but the fireplace could do with a few turns, which would create a nice atmosphere...

The best Calabrian specialties in a lovely family atmosphere

The food was very good. The products were high quality, but the prices were a bit high.

It's always a pleasure to find a place that offers such a winning combination: - ​Welcoming location and atmosphere - ​Delicious food (that "homemade" touch is the best!) - ​Impeccable service ​A compliment to the manager or owner is in order; it's details like these that make the difference and make a meal memorable.

Excellent restaurant serving traditional Calabrian cuisine!!! Highly recommended!!
