I migliori ristoranti in Calabria

04/09/2025: Excellent location, quiet area. Great for parties, birthdays

13/07/2025: Quality, courtesy and availability distinguish this pizzeria restaurant. I highly recommend it.

26/11/2025: Friendly staff, intimate and refined location, excellent food and good price.

01/11/2025: Excellent cuisine using local produce, courtesy, and a warm welcome complete a truly pleasant experience.

11/10/2025: Great place to grab a coffee and refuel at a great price. There's also a very strong newsstand inside. The girl inside is very friendly and helpful. G

03/10/2025: Delicious pizza. I recommend a visit for dinner.

23/09/2025: The pizza is average, the staff is unfortunately not very friendly, probably because it is small, it is not possible to manage a place with two people, there is a lack of staff, only one person takes the orders, manages the reservations, gets the toppings from the kitchen, serves the tables, even if it is unacceptable, as a result the delivery times are exhausting.

19/10/2025: Really enjoyed our meal here from start to finish. The service was so lovely and while no one else was there, as it was off season, he put on music and created a lovely atmosphere. The food was delicious. We got local harvest olive oil, two days old, absolutely delicious as was the house red wine. The zuppa faglioli was molto Buono 🥰🥰😋 would definitely go back and was very happy with our little meal here 😊😊❤️❤️

09/10/2025: Nice place and good service. The food was mediocre at best.

28/11/2025: Croissants, crepes and sandwiches as special as the people who serve them to you!!

23/11/2025: I took 2 croissants filled half with hazelnut and half with white cream, both croissants we can say were empty, they had no cream at all, I attach the photos, after €4.40 for croissants I expected at least some filling.

19/08/2025: The owner (I assume), manager, pizza chef, chef, and, in short, Deus Ex Machina Raffaele deserves 5 stars for his helpfulness and the kindness he exudes from every pore. In my opinion, it's impossible to argue with someone like him. I have many Calabrian friends and acquaintances, but he's one of a kind. A visit to his culinary "laboratory" is worth a visit just for the pleasure of meeting him. My family and I were returning from a trip to Tropea and Pizzo, two pearls of Calabria's Tyrrhenian coast that have nothing to envy of the Sorrento peninsula (I'd almost say "quite the opposite"). We were hungry, however, and we could have eaten and digested stones. That said, we wanted pizza, and while we waited, he offered us some fried calamari, made with clean oil and quite tasty. Then the pizzas arrived. I'm not judging these because I'm Neapolitan and these pizzas are not, so there's no point in trying to be a sophist. If you're in Amantea and order a pizza, you can eat it and keep quiet. Afterwards, he offered us some ravioli filled with "seafood" and topped with a nice prawn. If they had been hot and the sauce thinner, I wouldn't hesitate to call them as stratospheric as dear Raffaele said. After a very honest bill, he offered us coffee. In conclusion, the atmosphere isn't appealing, but there's outdoor seating, in the pizzeria, and in the restaurant. The cooking is influenced by the fact that Raffaele does everything himself, with the help, I believe, of his children—many young, well-mannered people. I've described the place as a "workshop" because it has the potential to grow, and I wish it the best of luck. Perhaps if Antonino Cannavacciuolo were to come by, he'd know how to guide him. One thing's for sure: I'll be back. And if you go and find the food isn't good, or even too good, I urge you to be more tolerant; Raffaele deserves it. Last but not least: the name of the place would normally scare me away, but he likes it, so be it.

04/08/2025: Santino and Giuseppe, the bar's historians ☺️ Every time I return to my hometown, I stop by for the generous aperitif in the villa and the croissants that remind me of my school years.

04/08/2025: Excellent value for money and delicious lemon cake. Recommended.

20/11/2025: Very tasty. Nice atmosphere. The pizza is delicious and the meat is very tasty. There are desserts too, but for some reason they're not on the menu. The place is not cheap.

05/09/2025: Highly recommended. The pizza is easy to digest and the pizza dough appetizers are delicious! (Gianpaolo, the pizza chef, is a guarantee!) The meat and fish dishes are also excellent. Excellent value. The staff is very kind and welcoming 😊

24/08/2025: A great place to spend a pleasant evening with friends. This cocktail bar is located in Nicotera's main square, with a breathtaking view and a wide selection of high-quality spirits. Excellent aperitifs and a very professional staff. Highly recommended 🤩🤩

18/06/2025: Perfect cappuccino, simply first-class! Unbeatable price, friendly service, everything very clean, TOP

16/11/2025: We arrived at this place at 8:45 PM and had pizza at 11:15 AM. No service, a bottle of water after half an hour, the chips left in the center of the table with no plates, no cutlery, and no sauces. The pizza was small and undercooked, the pinza even smaller. Eating a pizza at 11:15 PM is an experience not to be missed. No one came to apologize or offer explanations even though we asked several times.

27/09/2025: As a venue, it's excellent, as for the pizzas, they're very tasty, but as for the chili peppers, they're lacking.

07/10/2025: The girl named lovely, if I'm not mistaken, is disarmingly beautiful and sweet! I wish everyone a girl as sweet as her.🥰

04/10/2025: Nothing. Impressive. Gallant. Pleasant. Entertaining.

11/09/2025: Fast service, friendly staff, excellent food.

18/08/2025: Overall, we had a good time, but the food wasn't great, although it was still good. The waitress was friendly and polite, but the food took over 23 minutes to arrive. The prices are more than fair, and the portions are generous. Do I recommend it? Yes, I would gladly return. It's just a short walk from our hotel ☺️
