I migliori ristoranti in Calabria

14/09/2025: It's a shame, the location is great. It could be the best place in the area, but it lacks service and the quality of some of the products...

25/08/2025: Daily menu of meat and fish at affordable prices, cuisine a bit 80's style

13/08/2025: When I go back on vacation, I eat ice cream every day. And I think I'm capable of giving an honest opinion. Today I found myself at the Metropolis shopping center in Rende/Cosenza, specifically at C House. I ordered two medium cups and a brioche with gelato, all three with cream. The gelato was good overall, although not comparable to the artisanal one made in Jacurso (CZ), for example. I would have even accepted the price (€3.50 for the medium cups and €4 for the brioche). But I found it ridiculous, almost insulting, to have paid €0.90 for the additional cream for three—just a smear of cream on the gelato, so to speak. I asked the person at the cashier, Raffaella, if this was the amount I paid €2.70 for. Her response: "Does that seem small to you?" I'm posting the photos and leaving it up to my followers to decide for themselves. I preferred to avoid unnecessary discussions. Referring to other cities in the same region (to name a few: Reggio Calabria, Catanzaro, Pizzo, Tropea, Lamezia) and my previous reviews, I can say that many ice cream shops don't charge extra for cream, and the few others don't charge more than €0.30. But it's at least triple the price of the one I had here today. And definitely better, too.

13/08/2025: Today we went to the C HOUSE COFFEE SHOP and were fortunate enough to be served by Nicola: kindness and attention to detail. He served me a perfect lobster, crispy and creamy just right, while he made two impeccable coffees for my mother and aunt. The nicest touch? My mother had a caffè macchiato with a heart... a simple gesture that makes you feel special. A welcoming atmosphere, excellent products, and a service that makes you want to come back. Bravo Nicola! 👏

23/09/2025: A few days ago I got a mille-feuille cake for my birthday, an experience I absolutely WON'T repeat. It was a negative experience from every perspective, especially the appearance: when I opened the box, the cake was donut-shaped and drooping on one side, but that's okay... not even the hint of a decoration. I had asked for one flavor and was given another. I had asked for no more than 1.5 kg and it was over 2 kg, not to mention the exorbitant price. Total disappointment.

23/08/2025: Making up prices based on how you looked in the morning doesn't do you much credit! Never again!!!!!!!!

13/09/2025: After our walk in the Sila Giants Park, having worked up an appetite in the fresh air, my husband and I decided to have lunch. At the exit of the park, there was a restaurant with outdoor seating. The view around the restaurant was truly splendid, the nature enchanting. But unfortunately, our desire to have lunch there quickly faded. We couldn't find a table with a clean tablecloth to sit at. The chairs were also in terrible condition, and since I was wearing light-colored clothing, I didn't have the courage to sit. We limited ourselves to coffee (which, incidentally, was one of the most expensive I've ever had in Calabria). The atmosphere inside is a little better, but with such beautiful views around the restaurant, you'd want to sit on the terrace. Please pay more attention to cleanliness, and I'm sure customers will come in large numbers. Best regards.

16/08/2025: ONE STAR IS ALREADY TOO MANY.. TERRIBLE SERVICE AND EQUALLY TERRIBLE STAFF.. APPETIZER: It included 4 slices of cheese and 4 slices of salami. Pasta completely tasteless, not to mention the main course that arrived after about two hours. We asked for water about 4 times, which arrived after an hour from a fountain outside. The restrooms aren't up to standard because while you're eating, people walk past you with the door open. To pee, you have to rest your legs on a sort of shower next to the toilet. While we were in the dining room, we were covered in smoke from the kitchen. The whole dining room complained. A terrible experience, we'll never return. And I assure you, there are many other things to say.

11/09/2025: All in all not bad and certainly cheap.

27/08/2025: The hotel proudly retains its original appearance, yet remains well-maintained. The room amenities are impeccable. Maria Luisa, her husband, and their daughter Ivana were extremely kind and helpful. The location is strategic for exploring the entire Costa Degli Dei, from Pizzo Calabro to Capo Vaticano. Bars and supermarkets are just steps away. The value for money is excellent. Highly recommended.

14/10/2025: inflated prices at doc high petrol prices

11/10/2025: The restrooms are awful and old... all the bathrooms, both men's and women's, don't work... the smell was awful even from outside... I wonder how a service station can stay open without a restroom... the next service station is 47 km away in the direction of Salerno. ABSURD!!!

27/04/2025: The problem with this place is "the blonde".......

27/04/2025: Premetto che ero già stato piu volte in questo locale (la mia ultima presenza risaliva al gennaio 2024) quasi sempre di sabato sera. In tutte le occasioni avevo sempre avuto una discreta impressione generale tra qualità della musica live e a sprazzi anche del cibo. Decido di tornare dopo un po di tempo insieme ad un paio di amici per trascorrere un sabato sera tranquillo. Piú che parlare di cosa ho mangiato o del fatto che il locale fosse fondamentale semi vuoto fino alle 23 circa mi soffermo sull’episodio a mio parere “discutibile” che ha minato la credibilità del locale. Intorno alle 23.15 per un “imprevisto” siamo costretti anzitempo a lasciare il locale con l’intento di ritornare molto presto.. Nel farlo saldiamo il conto e chiediamo alla cassa se fosse possibile rientrare piu tardi, ci assicurano di si ricordando il numero del tavolo. Poco dopo lo scoccare della mezzanotte rientriamo prontamente presso il locale e al momento del nostro rientro ci viene detto che si trattava di “dopocena” e per farlo avremmo dovuto pagare ben 10€ a persona per la consumazione! Chiaramente una mancanza di rispetto simile per chi ha avuto un imprevisto dopo che ci era stato detto che saremmo potuto rientrare non può essere tollerata. Sarebbe stato più opportuno dirlo prima che il secondo ingresso si sarebbe dovuto pagare. Un pò come andare in discoteca, fare 2 passi fuori e al ritorno mi facessero pagare l’ingresso da capo: mai visto! Specialmente perché avevamo prenotato il tavolo delle 21.30 proprio con l’intento di rimanere a lungo. Onestamente c’è stato poco da controbattere.. L’episodio si commenta da solo.

06/09/2025: A Palestinian flag raised at the Lido! Completely stupid.

23/08/2025: There is a nice beach to pay for and a free one where you can just lie down

03/09/2025: Maybe it's better to correct the opening hours on Google because the place is nice and closed with chairs on the tables and that's it, so it definitely hasn't been closed for a few minutes!

29/08/2025: A clean restaurant with a unique ambiance. Friendly and helpful staff. Quality products prepared in a delicious and appetizing way. The only flaw in my sandwich was perhaps a little more fish. If you're ever in the area, you absolutely have to come here for a meal.

05/09/2025: Terrible customer service, no courtesy or kindness. We had the cedar granita, which was excellent, but I highly recommend it!

02/09/2025: Best cedar granita in the country

30/09/2025: The location on the Strait of Messina is beautiful, but the food and service are poor. The music is loud and the noise is annoying.

28/09/2025: 5 euros for two coffees (including a 2 euro service charge) seems too much, especially considering that the coffee is served in paper cups (not a great idea in a windy area...)

30/09/2025: Great stop over bar , average food. Good location.

14/09/2025: the place is also "nice" but you can see that the people who work there are not, if you order something that is not to their liking you will not be welcome, strange also because the customer is always right and if I ask you for a specific thing that was invented to be served and I expect that😂

10/08/2025: We had dinner at a family dinner after waiting a long time we went to get drinks we couldn't go down to eat because they didn't bring us the menu in the end the bill was very high for having taken a starter and 5 second courses not recommended

09/08/2025: I went to this restaurant with my family, there were 8 of us, poor service, decent local food but with a big flaw: they don't have a menu to choose what to eat, much less indicate the price list or, more importantly, allergens... they basically decide with what they have at the moment! Another negative thing: we paid an exaggeration for a mixed appetizer for the whole table, which cost €70, and 5 slices of meat with two bottles of water for a total of €185. Overall, I was disappointed and definitely won't go again... I don't recommend it!

04/10/2025: Unfortunately, it's more like a piadina than a pizza. It also arrived cold.

28/09/2025: The pizza isn't what it used to be. After years of being a customer and not being there for a while, we returned, but unfortunately the pizza by the slice, which is supposed to be their specialty, has gone downhill dramatically. There's no sign of improvement or anything new, contrary to what we'd been told over the phone.

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.

18/09/2025: The location alone is worth it...not recommended...the price is too high for the quality of the food offered. Not recommended.
