I migliori ristoranti in Calabria

14/09/2025: The atmosphere is not bad, we ordered a traditional Neapolitan pizza, it turned out that it was baked not in the oven but in the oven and was half raw. Even the Italians who were leaving asked if we liked it and said that the pizza was terrible. The waiters are quite unfriendly

26/08/2025: Good bar, but could become excellent with improved service... given its perfect location in the heart of Santa Lucia.

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.

06/09/2025: A pleasant atmosphere, ideal for relaxing in good company and enjoying the deliciousness of quality pastries and many other delicacies. Polite and helpful staff whose smiles make your visit pleasant. Prices are fair and affordable. The only drawback is the somewhat gruff and distracted cashier.

18/05/2025: Mediocre coffee and croissants! Terrible service, absolutely rude!

21/08/2025: A charming place with knowledgeable and always available staff. Just a few kilometers from Italy's most beautiful beaches.

20/05/2025: When you are captivated by nature and human warmth, where peace prevails and the smell of homemade food envelops you, where you feel like a private guest... it's here, magical, dreamy, unique, come and experience this review.

27/09/2025: AN INDESCRIBABLE DISGRACE, WE HAD TO WAIT OUTSIDE FOR 2 HOURS BECAUSE THE PIZZAS WASN'T READY AT THE ALLOWED TIME, A CROWD OF PEOPLE WAITING IMPATIENTLY NEVER AGAIN This place must close immediately

31/10/2025: Terrible service, you arrive at 10.55pm and they make you wait 5 minutes, it's 11pm and after five minutes of waiting they tell you that the order you want is no longer available after 11pm, what a shame on you and the whole chain and who made you open

28/10/2025: Always full and sometimes it's really difficult to find a seat

27/10/2025: Weak drinks, undrinkable. Tartufo pistachio ice cream scoop should have runny chocolate. The product was taken out of the fridge and had been lying around. We were given snacks and didn't touch them. They were lying around, not promised, and expensive.

09/10/2025: Sparkling water doesn't contain any sparkles. We mentioned that and the waiter was well aware of that but still, nothing happened

25/10/2025: I've eaten here several times in the last week with my family. The restaurant is nice and well-themed. The menu is comprehensive and varied. The staff was courteous. The food was overall good and well-presented. The service was quick (though there were few people). Neither I nor my family had any particular complaints, as reported in some comments. The price per person was in line with restaurants in shopping malls.

14/10/2025: I had lunch during the week when the restaurant was almost empty. Excellent service, with very polite and friendly waitresses. Since it was lunch, I didn't eat much, but I was satisfied with the carbonara portion. I didn't give it 5 stars because it was too salty, but overall it was good. I also saw a menu with fairly reasonable prices, so I recommend it. A positive experience.

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.

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

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.

23/09/2025: Good morning everyone, reading some reviews with gratuitous malice makes me sick, the Vocabulary Bar is a common bar, it doesn't have a particular product because like all bars it offers the same things, but reading about the rude staff honestly bothers me a lot, the courtesy, the politeness, the smile that the girls have not only while working in the shopping center, you will not find, in addition to the sneer and sneer who write about the lack of cleanliness or hygiene of the bar I kindly ask you to come and lend a hand at 6:00 in the morning when the public hasn't arrived yet but is racing to open the shutters to come to the bar, this is a review that I hope everyone who deals with Google Maps reads, try to be more honest and avoid this gratuitous malice. Have a good day

21/09/2025: Honestly, everything is dirty, even a can is brought to you with dirt, the glasses are rubbish, I leave one star, the service is zero, lack of seriousness

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!

23/08/2025: We arrived, and the welcome already left much to be desired: we waited a long time before anyone deigned to take our order, so much so that we had to call the staff ourselves. The pizzas were served first, arriving even before the drinks. After that, we waited an hour and a half for the first courses. And, incredibly, they were brought to the table next to ours, which arrived 20 minutes after us. We also ordered fried food, but ultimately cancelled it to avoid further biblical delays and due to the blatantly unprofessional service (giving priority to other customers who, apparently, knew the staff). As if that weren't enough, the prices are incredibly high: a first course starts at 20 euros and up, completely unjustified given the quality and overall experience. Regarding the food: the linguine with clams was an insult—ten clams in all—on the plate. The seafood pasta was nothing more than a simple pasta dish with sauce, devoid of any seafood. The flavor wasn't horrible, but the lack of ingredients and the small portions made it completely unacceptable. The icing on the cake? As we left the parking lot, we noticed the open kitchen, and what we saw was certainly not reassuring: the staff working in the kitchen exhibited anything but hygienic behavior. An experience that would be an understatement: a true nightmare, not to be repeated.

23/08/2025: Having arrived at 9:00 PM, the first courses didn't arrive until 10:30 PM, while a table that arrived 20 minutes after us was served earlier and with the same dishes. In the end, exhausted by hunger, we had to make do with bread and mayonnaise, a gesture that alone speaks volumes about the level of service. The second courses, of course, were cancelled: the waiting time was unacceptable. The final scene was almost more eloquent than the dinner: from the window overlooking the parking lot, we could glimpse a makeshift team, led by a supposed "coordinator" intent on tasks unbecoming of hygiene and professionalism, all while smoking a cigarette.
