I migliori ristoranti in Calabria

05/08/2026: I dined here with my family and, overall, it was a positive experience. The location is stunning, with a truly breathtaking view. The menu offers a wide selection, and the excellent quality of the ingredients is immediately apparent. I ordered the marinated salmon, which was truly excellent, and for my first course, the fileja pasta with scampi and burrata, which was also very good. If I could make a personal suggestion, I think a paccheri pasta with this sauce would enhance the dish even more. The only real flaw was the service, which, along with the food, is one of the most important aspects of a restaurant. In such a beautiful location with such great potential, I would have expected more attention to the customer. For example, I would have appreciated a waiter who could recommend dishes or who was more present at the tables, especially considering that the place wasn't particularly crowded. After ordering the appetizers, we were the ones who had to ask for bread and sauces for the chips. Once the appetizers were finished, the plates weren't cleared before the main courses arrived: the waiter with the first courses in hand had to wait for a colleague to clear the table. Furthermore, I had placed the silverware on my plate to indicate I wanted it replaced, but they simply put it back on the table and I had to ask for it myself. Other diners also had their silverware taken away with their plates, and we had to ask for it ourselves, while the waiter would have replaced it automatically. At one point, the bread had also run out, and there was no waiter nearby to ask for it. One final, purely personal observation: I think the room could use some more attention to aesthetics. The unoccupied tables were completely bare, without tablecloths or any other decoration, and this, in such an elegant location, gave a somewhat neglected impression. The bill, in my opinion, is absolutely in line with the quality of the cuisine, the location, and the beauty of the venue. For this very reason, however, I expected service to match the setting. It's a place with enormous potential, and with a greater focus on service, it could truly offer an excellent experience.

05/08/2026: Bad experience! Inspired by the location, we decided to try this restaurant, but we left disappointed. The service was poor, and so was the food. The spaghetti with clams was definitely worth a look, along with the other dishes we ordered. We were served by an older gentleman with a manner completely unbecoming of a waiter. The owner should ask himself if what he's doing with that restaurant is right. Because everything is wrong!

07/06/2026: A fantastic experience at Forte delle Monacelle! The location is truly enchanting, with a breathtaking view that makes every moment special. The atmosphere is welcoming, elegant, and relaxing, ideal for spending a pleasant evening with friends. The restaurant also deserves a special mention: excellent pizza, made with quality ingredients and cooked to perfection. The service is courteous and attentive, helping to make the experience even more enjoyable. A place that combines beauty, good food, and extraordinary views. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a charming location where they can eat well and enjoy a spectacular view! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🍕🌄

07/06/2026: Very nice location, but the wait staff and service are inefficient. We waited over an hour and only ate a modest appetizer. The pizzas never arrived, so we left unsatisfied and hungry. My rating is 0.

13/06/2026: Nothing to complain about the service and friendliness, but I didn't find the music volume pleasant, like an extension of the Kursal in full jet lag. Then the smell of used foundry oil takes away your appetite and makes you forget why you came here.

12/06/2026: It's a shame to review a place I've been to several times and will definitely return. I was having lunch with a colleague and ordered a non-alcoholic cocktail. I noticed that the bartender, to improve the taste, had added pineapple juice, which wasn't on the menu. So I immediately stopped him, saying that my colleague was allergic to pineapple and that this addition would have caused her to go into full-blown anaphylactic shock with airway obstruction. In a friendly and cordial tone, after having to have the drink remade, I said, "Can I give you a suggestion? Next time, if you need to add something off the menu, please share it, because I assure you I would have had to call an ambulance urgently." I expected, not just an apology, but at least an "OK, thanks." The reaction was one of complete indifference, with the bartender looking at me and, without saying anything, asking me to settle the bill. A little more politeness would have been enough, and I wouldn't have written this review.

22/07/2026: A place to definitely keep in mind. Don't let the restaurant's classic appearance fool you! The food is excellent and the service (a woman and a young man) is very professional and attentive. We discovered it late, but we would certainly return. Thank you!

04/06/2026: Nice hotel, good breakfast, nice quiet rooms. Only the young waiters were unfriendly.

05/10/2025: Fantastic pizzas and very friendly staff Recommended

04/09/2025: I really liked the varied selection of pizzas and savory items. The quality seems good, and it remains an excellent place to eat in the area.

19/04/2026: Everything was excellent, the owners were friendly and very professional.

07/02/2026: Great restaurant! You can sit outside with a sea view or inside in the freshly renovated and climatized space. Food was absolutely delicious - seafood and pizza both. Good selection of food and drinks. Service is very friendly and helpful, menu is available online and easily translated to other languages. That’s convenient as a tourist since Hotel Lungomare is right next door and my family doesn’t speak a lot of Italian.

19/06/2026: I'm not giving it 0 stars because it's not allowed... Stupid staff. I sent my daughter for a cake and they served me a freshly made crap... The owners and waiters are tacky!!! I don't recommend this place at all.

08/04/2026: Spacious, airy, and very welcoming. Plenty of free parking. We stopped for a ginseng tea, which was delicious and creamy. They also offered us a ginseng-laced dessert. Great selection of sweet and savory treats.

26/07/2026: A truly terrible experience. The menu lists prices, but in the end the bill was much higher and didn't match the menu. This was absolutely unacceptable. The meat was also a huge disappointment: terrible quality, lacking flavor, and poorly prepared. We waited a long time, and the service was completely subpar. Overall, a very bad experience. The prices were too high for the quality, and the value was truly terrible. I absolutely do not recommend it and will definitely never return.

27/04/2026: A welcoming pizzeria-trattoria with plenty of seating. The staff and owner are very friendly, attentive, and attentive. This is my second time here, and I have to say I was completely satisfied. The pizza was delicious, not the usual soggy Neapolitan pizza, but thin and crispy, just the way I like it, with quality ingredients. I'll definitely be back with a group to try their dishes. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

02/08/2026: For 3 gin and tonics €40 in plastic cups 😂😂😂

28/07/2026: Excellent coffee, croissants to enjoy with the family, etc. etc.

24/02/2026: Great experience, top breakfast

09/01/2026: Excellent breakfast bar. The pastries are really good. The girls at the counter are friendly and always smiling. Recommended.

19/07/2026: An endless variety of excellent desserts. Welcoming place. Friendly and efficient staff.

12/07/2026: Yesterday we ordered pastries with almond paste and cream sfogliatelle. While the almond paste can be left out of the fridge, the sfogliatelle cannot, we said that the journey was long... well, they switched the tickets, and as a result, we put almond paste in the cooler and the sfogliatelle remained outside and went bad. We made a bad impression due to their carelessness!!

22/07/2026: Our stay at Roscianum was a small moment of happiness. The impeccable rooms, the large and welcoming pool, and the ever-kind staff at the buffet created a pleasant atmosphere, but what truly filled our hearts was seeing our 4-year-old son Antonio beaming every day. Watching him run, curious and fearless, to his mini-club appointments, eagerly await the evening baby dance, and participate in every activity with a smile that spoke for itself… well, that alone was worth the price of admission. The Joy Summer team was wonderful: attentive, affectionate, and full of energy. They gave our little one moments we will always remember, sincere emotions and that magic that only those who love their work can convey to children. We didn't go to the beach because we also have a two-month-old baby, but the pool was our perfect oasis, morning and afternoon, stress-free and with all the serenity we were looking for. A vacation that left us with sweet memories and a deep sense of gratitude.

22/07/2026: Beautiful structure, the only flaw is the distance from the sea, but well organized with shuttles, large and clean pool, excellent food, well-equipped beach and this year with the Joy Summer entertainment, fun is guaranteed.

12/07/2026: Honest pizza in a historic location

12/07/2026: It's okay, but I wouldn't recommend the restaurant.

28/05/2026: Try the fagotto, it's not your average pizza, but a delicious new addition! Compliments on the service.

02/05/2026: Delicious pizza Montanarina more

03/08/2025: We stayed at Villa Brazzano and were absolutely thrilled! The property is stunning, meticulously maintained, and surrounded by lush greenery, perfect for relaxing in touch with nature. The breakfast is excellent, with fresh fruit and a good variety of products to suit all tastes. The staff was always kind, welcoming, and helpful, making us feel right at home. A charming place that we highly recommend.

22/06/2025: A fantastic weekend, with such friendliness and excellent service. We'll be back because we were treated so professionally. A place surrounded by greenery and so cool that we could relax without any worries, thanks to Villa Brazzano.
