18/10/2025: Excellent aperitif! Finally a spritz made properly, with alcohol present and well-measured, not the usual glass of water and ice. Pleasant place and friendly staff. I'll gladly return!

15/10/2025: You ask for a cappuccino and get a fake coffee with milk. The croissants look like they're made of plastic. I've had breakfast there at 7 a.m., but it was always empty, despite having a fairly good location compared to its competitors. I come back to the point that if a "barista" doesn't know how to make a cappuccino, I'd suggest perhaps changing jobs. I reply to the owner: "Very kind and friendly of you, but I'm definitely much more Italian than you are." When presumption overcomes common sense, there's not much left to add. I don't understand why you insist on saying I eat frozen donuts and junk food, I'm Italian!!!! Maybe you should go to Zelig, at least it'll get some visibility.

29/07/2025: Great place for both breakfast and aperitifs. The cocktails are very good.

15/04/2025: The place is okay, the prices are quite high. The service was very nice and helpful!

19/10/2025: Top-notch coffee! The girl remade my coffee three times because it wasn't what it was supposed to be! Well done!

14/09/2025: Arriving on Saturday for the flower festival in Monte Isola, we stopped first for a coffee... and then returned for an aperitif. I've never encountered such young, yet super efficient, guys. Quick, kind, and super helpful. One of the guys, who was just starting out, was perhaps supervised by another guy who was teaching him how to take orders, use equipment, etc. A problem in the restaurant's bathroom (caused by the huge crowds due to the event) was promptly fixed by the aforementioned guy. He washed and sanitized everything and replenished what was missing. He was super kind and apologized for the problem and the wait (really only 5 minutes to fix everything). I complimented these guys on their work to the lady (I don't know if she's the owner) in the purple shirt... because it's really hard to find guys this young, yet attentive and precise these days.

12/09/2025: Gentile il gestore ottima focaccia

07/09/2025: nice place, somewhat limited menu, now it's a sandwich shop

06/10/2025: Qualified, knowledgeable staff, and always kind and helpful! Excellent products, both sweet and savory, excellent quality. I recommend it to everyone!

02/10/2025: Stampetta Pasticceria is a historic pastry shop, established in 1962. Yesterday evening, I bought a profiterole from them. The cake weighed less than 1 kg, and the lady at the counter had a clever idea: to cover up the cake's age, she re-covered it with chocolate and yellow cream, increasing the weight to 1.5 kg and attempting to cover up the staleness. The scam cost €45. At home, we had to reveal the whole truth: an old cake, an unscrupulous sales assistant, and a ruined party. This morning, I personally charged the counter clerk with her personal responsibility for lying and abusing the trust she had placed in her. I point out that I was with an elderly woman, and this behavior is as disgusting as the cake being sold. This morning, I noticed the neglected display cases and the dirt that accompanies old, frosted cakes. I advise against visiting, or purchasing anything. Flavio Calì

31/08/2025: Excellent service, delicious food, very special location, I highly recommend it

30/08/2025: We had dinner at this quaint place and, of course, ordered the house appetizer for six people, hoping they'd bring us all typical Calabrian dishes. They brought us five measly dishes for €12 per person, which was very disappointing. Peppers and potatoes (more potatoes than peppers), amberjack with cherry tomatoes, anchovies, and stuffed peppers, green beans and potatoes (which I eat when I'm on a diet), if this is typical, I'm holding my hands up. To recap, €72 for six people.

13/10/2025: The owner was very friendly, and the coffee, pistachio croissant, and chocolate cream bun were all delicious! I had a hard time deciding on what to eat, so he recommended something and waited patiently for me to choose, allowing me to choose with ease and enjoy my meal! È delizioso! :)

05/10/2025: Excellent service, very friendly, delicious coffee 😊 Price as it should be! Recommended

29/10/2025: Good food. Long wait. Nice place.

03/09/2025: The cashier is a bit grumpy, so I recommend an intravenous dose of chamomile tea. "Look, it's written in Italian," which is why the place is empty, with people like you! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ I'd rather go somewhere else, rude.

20/08/2025: When they bring you a glass you look and you don't even touch it to drink because you see a hair but more than a rolled hair I would say a hair of something I don't know but that is stuck to the edge of the glass (and it can happen) but when you bring it and kindly point it out to the staff at the counter they take it they look at the color and say it's yours....🫤...well...the owner is very professional and nice but I would recommend a professionalism course to whoever works alongside him at the bar

02/09/2025: Very good restaurant. A woman approached us to come to her restaurant. It was very, very good. A good restaurant. A woman told us if we wanted to go in. It was very, very good.

05/06/2025: Ho pranzato due domeniche fa in questo buon ristorante situato nel centro della città, dietro la Via Etnea. Sono rimasto molto soddisfatto dalla qualità del cibo proposto e dal servizio veloce e cortese (dal momento che purtroppo avevo l'aereo a breve). Ho preso maccheroni alla norma, cotoletta e torta al limone. Il ristorante ha una ricca carta di pietanze sia di carne che di pesce. Mi sento di consigliarlo a chi viene in città, considerando che non è facile trovare nella zona ristoranti altrettanto buoni. Spero io stesso di tornarci presto.

29/07/2025: Professional, smiling, and fast staff Fresh, soft, and warm croissants Clean and well-organized place Comfortable seating Excellent location Highly recommended Will definitely be back

22/07/2025: The place is crowded and quiet. The coffee quality is very good.

02/11/2025: Excellent dishes recommended by the manager, family atmosphere and friendly staff

30/08/2025: Embarrassing service, they threatened to leave the place.

08/09/2025: Rude staff, mediocre coffee, and prices designed to squeeze tourists. Feels more like a trap than a café — definitely not worth your time or money.

03/09/2025: €20 for breakfast for three people (€4 for a cappuccino) because I didn't have any cash. Mediocre croissant. Never again.

04/11/2025: Very average, water was charged for despite our request, cutlery was also charged. Small portion of the dish. I do not recommend it at all.

11/10/2025: I ate at this restaurant for the first time and was very impressed, from the service to the excellent quality/price ratio. We started with two appetizers: the seafood salad, which was warm with a truly amazing sauce. My mom mopped up the salad endlessly, just the right amount of salt. I highly recommend it. The other appetizer was the brandacoujoun, if you spell it that way. The one with the addition of pine nuts was also excellent; I can still taste the flavor and the softness. Let's move on to the main courses: the mixed fried fish and the mixed fried anchovies. I've never seen such crispiness, and not a trace of grease. Kudos to the chef. The fish was fried to perfection, my mouth is still watering; you absolutely have to try it. The entrecote with a side of chips was very popular; the meat was cooked just right, as requested, and super juicy. To finish, a delicious chocolate cake. I could have eaten four more; the softness and flavor were there. What can I say? We ate well. The restaurant is located on the Ventimiglia seafront, and who cares if cars pass by. What matters is good food, good service, and a good restaurant. We felt at home. Thank you, Sofia Restaurant 12+
