I migliori ristoranti in Calabria

22/11/2025: The cake was completely different from what I had requested and completely ruined.

14/10/2025: On my way from Puglia, I stopped for a brioche with gelato, drawn by the reviews. The hygiene was poor, the service slow and indifferent. They didn't even clear the table. The gelato wasn't great, and the brioche was definitely not freshly made. €4 for a brioche was completely unjustified.

15/02/2026: The outdoor room is very beautiful

10/01/2026: I had the (negative) experience as a couple celebrating New Year's Eve on December 31, 2025, at Villa Ermenegilda. Actually, it felt more like being at the Ice Palace than in a reception hall, a cold evening. It was immediately clear that the heating, which was improvised at that, had been turned on perhaps an hour before the event, yet on the phone they had said the place was well heated, considering the ladies were wearing more modest clothing. The waiter service was completely unorganized and in a state of absolute confusion. Several times, people asked for a bottle of wine at the table, but the bottle never arrived. Then there was the food, I found nothing interesting: the pasta was undercooked, the rice, and, let's not even mention pre-cooked. Then there was the panettone served at the table, which was more or less like the kind bought at some discount store and served alongside the lentils and cotechino. Let's not even talk about the restroom area—the only bathroom in a freezing cold part of the villa, with cobwebs and mold everywhere—and it was clear the place had been closed for a while. There's much more to say, because I wasn't the only one complaining about the rest. Alas, €100, let's say donated to charity. This was my first time here, and my only time.

20/10/2025: Terrible experience, to say the least, scammers... when I entered with my friend, there were no other customers. At first we were welcomed well by the staff, and the pizza chef, with a kind and smiling manner, offered to prepare us a 4 seasons pizza, to sit at a table. Even though my friend and I wanted a light dinner, we had decided to share the pizza, a portion of chips, a glass bottle of coke, both to be consumed by 2, since there was no one else consuming inside the "fast food" at the tables, the order was delivered to our table very quickly. Honestly, the pizza was good and with standard ingredients. The portion of chips was presented in a small oval earthenware bowl with chips that if poured into a bag did not even reach €1 of chips. One of the employees came to check twice if we liked it. When it came to the cashier to pay the bill, the same employee offered us coffee and bitter, which we did not consume and thanked her. of kindness, the second employee gave us the bill... €18... at that point we paid, said goodbye and thanked the staff, my friend and I went outside to walk towards the car, but in the meantime I was not convinced by the high price, while talking about it with my friend looking for the receipt that the employee who gave us the bill had not given us, I decided to go back to ask precisely the individual cost of the drinks... the pizza chef entering and turning his back on me, not seeing me... spat on the floor outside the entrance before going back in and closing the door... and up to this point I understood the fake kindness of the pizza chef, but far too rude and out of place in the completely tasteless gesture of his spitting. I go in to ask the cashier if she hadn't made a mistake with the bill, keeping in mind that she hadn't given me and my friend a receipt... the cashier turns around, having had the garbage bin behind her and pretends to find it among all the other papers, without even showing it to me, she redoes the bill mentioning the costs, of which... A 4 SEASONS PIZZA €9, A PORTION OF CHIPS €4.50, A SMALL COKE €2, AND TWO COVERS OF €2 EACH... but for the second time no receipt for me... I said my piece that with the cost of the 2 covers you could already buy a pizza, and that in a fast food I think the covers are a real robbery... with an unsatisfied and annoyed air I thanked and said goodbye, but never again, so double mockery, pretense and scam only for their interests and not to make the customers happy again, the icing on the cake was the spitting of the pizza chef, who didn't know he had me behind him👏

10/09/2025: A truly pleasant experience, the pizza is simply delicious, and the staff is extremely kind, helpful, and attentive to every need. A place I'll happily return to and one I recommend to anyone looking for excellent pizza in a welcoming and professional environment!

25/03/2026: Excellent option for a quick dinner or a relaxing evening. Excellent, beautifully presented food. The perfect aperitif for an alternative evening. The iced coffee or shaken cocktail is also excellent.

02/03/2026: A chamomile tea bag costs €5.50, water with a tea bag inside!! Twenty tea bags cost €1.60 I understand the service and everything is a markup. Charge €2 for a chamomile tea!!! But not €5.50

07/10/2025: Do yourself a favor and try the Between the Sheets cocktail.

26/09/2025: I just had or should I say didn’t have lunch here. I waited and waited and waited which was long even by Italy standards. What I was served was inedible . How can you make bad pasta . It was a ragu with meat sauce my favorite dish . I am starving I thought will Just get it down . I couldn’t . It tasted like paste and devoid of flavor . . Oh and the ceaser salad was iceberg lettuce with some odd flavored dressing. My Husband who will eat anything couldn’t get it down. His spaghetti dish was edible. The Bruschetta was stellar I think . It just may be that I waited so long that it tasted so good

31/12/2025: The worst pizza we've ever had. The set menu was a sea of ​​canned tomato sauce on pre-baked crostini dough with a drink (the Coke tasted heavenly). The spritz was more expensive than the set menu (€7). The service was quite unpleasant. Deplorable.

30/12/2025: For €6.50 per person we ate a good pizza + drink and relaxed

05/04/2026: My fiancé and I came here almost every day specifically for the arancini – we tried all the varieties. You can choose from vegetarian options with mozzarella and spinach (the spinach is barely noticeable, but the overall flavor is still great), with onions, with nduja, and with ragu. Each one is delicious and definitely worth trying, although they could be a bit more seasoned. My fiancé also ordered a pizza by the slice – it was okay. The Aperol was very good, and the coffee was also a plus. It's worth visiting just for the arancini.

18/02/2026: I ordered a steak, the meat was poor quality, it was hard to cut, it tasted strange. I didn't get the side dish I ordered even after half an hour of sitting in the restaurant. When I told the waiter about it, I didn't get a response until the third time. The pasta we ordered was average. Unfortunately, the food looked better than it tasted.

29/10/2025: Beautiful venue right on the beach. Service was very nice. Some of menu items were not available for lunch which is understandable. We would recommend this restaurant for the view alone.

21/09/2025: I've had lunch twice at this restaurant with its enchanting view. I was on vacation with friends and would have returned several times given the quality of the food and the tranquility of the place, but we were mocked for tactical menu changes like, "Oh! We don't have this seafood appetizer (20 euros) today, but if you want, I'll bring you octopus and marinated anchovies." They didn't specify that they become two separate dishes, and you pay 20 euros for two tentacles and 20 euros for 8 anchovies. So your seafood appetizer becomes a starred appetizer for 40 euros. The receipt never arrived. We were wrong not to ask for anything at the time, but we were on a happy, carefree vacation and only later realized we'd been a bit ripped off.

11/04/2026: It's a lovely place to sit, but as is so often the case, there's a service charge for the few chips if you take even one. Even if you don't take any, check the bill! It was a nice try for us…

05/03/2026: A place where you can eat freely. The food is delicious and the dishes are beautiful. The prices are reasonable.

27/10/2025: Poor quality products. Heavy, chewy dough. Never again.

30/09/2025: Truly awful pizza. Not to mention the brown-haired guy who first handles money and then touches the food with his hands, while also sticking his finger in his mouth to catch the papers on the trays while serving customers. Bad, bad, bad. HACCP CRIES.

25/11/2025: A truly disappointing experience. They call themselves all-you-can-eat, but there's nothing unlimited about it. Most items have a limit on how many you can order, some even ridiculously so, like the jo, which, for two people, can be ordered up to six times (note: it's one piece per portion) because, according to them, "they're high quality." You can only order the spicy sauce once per person, otherwise they charge €0.50 each... and the quantity served is truly embarrassing. The other sauces? You have to pay for them straight away, without even a taste included. The menu lacks variety, and to make matters worse, the dishes arrived immediately after ordering and completely cold (like the grilled gyoza). This suggests they were already ready a while ago or, worse still, recycled from another table. The quality is just decent: the flavors are unremarkable. Most importantly: all these restrictions at DINNER! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 An "all you can eat" that seems like anything but an all you can eat. I don't recommend it.

10/11/2025: We didn't even have time to finish the last course before they took the plate away from us. I complained at the cashier, but the answer was "I don't know." 😂

09/04/2026: Without praise and without accusations

06/04/2026: I went to this bar today and had to wait over an hour for two coffees. Unacceptable wait times and poor organization. A negative experience.

14/10/2025: I've been back four times at different times and I must say I've always had a great time, from the sandwiches at the bar to the aperitifs to the seafood lunch served with a sea view. I've been coming since 2023 and I'm sorry to read negative reviews, but I've had only positive feedback, and what's more, I've even gone on the busiest days, e.g., August 15th.

04/10/2025: A seaside location perfect for events, but also for other formal occasions. The seafood appetizers are excellent, especially the raw fish (fantastic). The first courses are always fresh, though it's a shame about the monkfish served with paccheri; I would have cleaned it before serving. In any case, I understand that this was done to convey the freshness of the fish. Congratulations!

17/11/2025: Google tells me it's open, but... as you can see it's not.

16/10/2025: I was there in October, this city is dead
