I migliori ristoranti in Calabria

07/09/2025: Friendly staff, if you want to eat Calabrian specialties you're in the right place!

04/09/2025: Nice place with a pool, good food, owner always ready to make you feel comfortable.

10/05/2026: It's a very old tatty looking run down motorway services. Needs serious capital expenses. The staff were l9vely though

06/05/2026: Excellent grilled panini Regeliana: focaccia with pistachio cream cheese & mortadella!The sfogliatella riccia was warm & crunchy & buttery and absolutely the best sfogliatella I’ve tasted in southern Italy!🇮🇹 The barista & cooks & staff were so kind & patient and appreciated how much we enjoyed their delicious food! They made us feel so welcomed!

23/01/2025: A quiet, welcoming, and family-friendly restaurant-pizzeria where I dined à la carte once and tried the pizza a second time. I had a great time; the food was to my liking, the prices more than reasonable, the meat good, and the pizza thin and crispy, just the way I like it. Service was quick. The waiter and cashier were friendly and helpful. Recommended.

23/01/2025: Ristorante-pizzeria tranquillo, accogliente e familiare dove ho cenato una volta scegliendo alla carta e provato la pizza una seconda volta. Mi sono trovata bene, il cibo è stato di mio gradimento, i prezzi più che ragionevoli, la carne buona e la pizza bassa e croccante come piace a me. Servizio rapido. Cameriere e signorina alla cassa gentili e disponibili. Consigliato.

22/04/2026: I went to this place to celebrate my son's 18th birthday. Everything was delicious! We chose the pizza rotation menu. The rotisserie was amazing, you can really feel it's made in-house. They had various pizza flavors with high-quality ingredients and a very light dough. The staff was helpful and kind to our every request! For what we paid, it was truly worth it! The evening was accompanied by music, we had a great time! The place was very well-kept and clean! I highly recommend it to everyone!

20/04/2026: A wonderful experience, homemade rotisserie and very light pizza. I highly recommend it.

28/10/2025: The staff is friendly enough, but they have preferences. Poor service and average pizza. People they know come and leave first. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone.

01/11/2025: This B&B experience is not to be repeated, due to the room overlooking the internal construction site and the unfriendly owner. I love Praia and enjoy going there when I can, but I won't be returning to Porto di Mare.

25/09/2025: Good quality food, otherwise a bad experience. I don't recommend going there. Be careful with the owner (she's clever, even if she doesn't seem so). When I asked for the bill, we realized the next day that she'd listed two salads instead of one, and a dessert we never ate... Excessive prices. My wife and I shared a cold seafood appetizer and a large mixed grill, along with two glasses of wine. We paid 90.00. Absurd!!

25/04/2026: Great music mix and amazing food and drinks. Stopped in for lunch. The gli gnocchetti was amazing and so was the aperol spritz. Highly recommend!

11/04/2026: Excellent service, very quick wait times. I asked the bartender for a cocktail of my choice, and it was excellent. Delicious food. Recommended

08/09/2025: SUSHI YOUMI is a pleasant discovery. The sushi is fresh and well-prepared, with carefully crafted and tasty dishes. The selection is varied and the quality/price ratio is excellent. The place is welcoming, and the staff is friendly and always available to offer advice. A great place for lovers of Japanese cuisine in Rende.

29/07/2025: Nice, very welcoming place with good and varied dishes....

03/08/2025: Aperitivo da EURO 10 qualità pessima. Molto da rivedere, non una buona esperienza. Ci si aspettava una qualità migliore viste alcune recensione positiva.

01/08/2025: Ottimo spaghetto con le vongole, cremoso e saporito. Gli involtini di pesce spada non ci sono piaciuti così come il primo con pesce spada e melanzane. Buona la frittura di calamari. I prezzi a mio parere troppo alti. 4 persone 4 primi e 3 secondi abbiamo pagato 170 euro.

15/03/2026: Everything was excellent, I had a gluten-free pasta with cuttlefish and cuttlefish ink which was excellent!!!

08/03/2026: Today, March 8, 2026, two people for €59.50. Nice place and decent service. The problem? The price and quality of the food. €19 for 6 bruschettas, embarrassing to say the least. Ten paccheri that tasted only of salt, and a scialatiello so raw that if thrown at someone's head, it would have caused a brain injury. I understand that these are the costs these days, and if you decide to go out for lunch, you have to take that into account. But absolutely not like this. I repeat, €19 for 6 bruschettas.

07/06/2026: A shameful experience. After ordering, we waited over two hours without our pizzas arriving at our table. No one bothered to provide a clear explanation or apologize for the delay, demonstrating total disorganization and embarrassing service management. Faced with such an absurd wait and the unprofessional behavior of the staff, we were forced to leave without dinner. The most incredible thing is that we were still charged for our cover charges, even though we hadn't eaten any pizza or finished our meal. A poorly maintained restaurant, terrible service, and virtually nonexistent courtesy. An experience that leaves only a bitter taste and demonstrates a complete lack of respect for customers. I won't be returning, and I strongly advise against this place to anyone expecting even a modicum of organization and attention.

07/06/2026: Beautiful view, but terrible service. We arrived on time with a properly registered reservation, but were completely ignored. After 40 minutes, they took our order, and after over an hour of waiting, we'd only received a portion of fries, while tables arriving after us were being served. At 11:00 PM, we decided to leave. Instead of apologizing, they charged us a cover charge and told us, "It's Saturday night; if you don't want to wait, go to McDonald's." Furthermore, the reservation had been made through TheFork with a discount included in the promotion, but it wasn't even applied to the single drink we received. A very disappointing experience and unprofessional attitude.

02/03/2026: I liked it very much, highly qualified and very professional staff

15/02/2026: My girlfriend and I went last night for Valentine's Day. The place is very large and spacious, and can also accommodate special events, but it's very out of the way. The evening was pleasant, but unfortunately I have to give it a low rating for two reasons: 1) The quality of the appetizer: in my opinion, the food was poor and packaged. We have so many local cured meats that going to Calabria and buying packaged items just to save a few euros isn't ideal. I ate it, but I felt sick that night. The pizza was good, but not the best. 2) Service: everything was fine. The staff were very attentive at the beginning and asked me about any intolerances on the pizza I had chosen, right up to the dessert and sparkling wine/Prosecco that were supposed to be served, but weren't served. I promptly reported this to the cashier, who was very kind and wanted to stop us or offer me a drink, which I declined because it was already late and I wanted to go home. The piano bar was very enjoyable, as was the Valentine's Day evening with the singer who, between songs, updated us on the Inter-Juventus match 😂. Overall, the experience wasn't bad, but I recommend reviewing the service and, above all, the quality of the ingredients. Sure, you charge €25 per person for a set menu with certain items, but at least include a decent appetizer that isn't prepackaged (cooked ham, which is the kind you get prepackaged in supermarkets).

28/10/2025: The only thing that's exaggerated is the price. €6 for a mini sandwich.

18/10/2025: I tried their sandwiches a few weeks ago, they were really good. You can really taste Calabria inside 😉. I even stopped by Montepaone to pick them up before going to the airport on my last day. The prices are fair for the quality of the products. When I return to Calabria, it will be a regular stop 👍🏻. Highly recommended

03/05/2026: I went to this restaurant during the medieval festival. I made a reservation the night before. When I got there, my table was occupied, so they assigned me a table outside. Terrible service. Poor quality food. I waited so long between courses that we ended up paying without finishing our meal.

18/04/2026: A very authentic restaurant. Lovingly decorated and good food. Run by an older couple, and the wife has to do everything herself because the husband can no longer walk well. The service suffers a little from the one-man operation.

19/11/2025: The location is stunning, on the Pizzo marina. You can see the sea, but not the food! It's still worth going. Perfect for a gala evening or a ceremony, celebration, or occasion. Very large, with a spacious interior. Overlooking the sea. Very good!

08/11/2025: Excellent restaurant with a beautiful view of the sea, excellent staff who do their best for the guests and they have delicious food and great wine, coffee and special ice cream. We definitely recommend visiting. Milan and Radka
