I migliori ristoranti in Calabria

26/05/2026: A restaurant serving homemade Calabrian food in a lovely, rustic, and very welcoming setting. Everything was spotless, and the service was quick and attentive. We ordered two pasta dishes: the pasta casereccia ai funghi porcini, which was delicious! We wanted to try the paccheri alla pistacchiosa, but they were out, so we ordered the stroncatura alla San Giovannino, which we didn't particularly enjoy, unfortunately. They were very kind; we only ordered one dessert to share, which was also delicious and homemade—fig jam—and they brought us a complimentary shot of almond liqueur and some dried pastries. We highly recommend it.

19/05/2026: Very nice food, good portions! Amazing deserts

22/02/2026: Super good sandwiches and delicious chips with cheese and crusco chili pepper.

15/02/2026: I've been to Vintage and was truly impressed! The place is very quaint, with attention to detail and a welcoming atmosphere that evokes a warm, original, and vintage style. The sandwiches are the real highlight: fresh ingredients, tasty combinations, and generous portions. You can taste the quality in every bite! The value for money is also excellent. The staff is friendly and helpful. I absolutely recommend Vintage to anyone looking for a casual yet distinctive place, perfect for an evening with friends. I'll definitely be back!

17/05/2026: Came with friends for dinner . Our first time here. Staff went above and beyond to provide amazing food .

17/05/2026: Great service, delicious ndjua pasta

29/04/2026: Delicious and cheap pizza, you can eat in or take away - the owner accommodates all your whims, so you can either take a pizza from the menu or come up with interesting combinations or add your favorite toppings ☺️ I definitely recommend it, on weekends it's a bit more crowded and the wait for the order is a bit longer, during the week it's usually 10-15 minutes :-)

28/04/2026: The pizza was absolutely delicious. The wine was excellent as well, smooth and rich, and it paired perfectly with the meal. The atmosphere was cozy and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. I would definitely come back again!

28/04/2026: Everything was wonderful, from the service to the ambiance, and the dishes were sweet but not nauseating. We had a great time; it's especially suitable for small groups who want to enjoy a bit of peace during brunch!

15/04/2026: I entered this brunch spot with legitimate expectations, quickly dashed by service that would be an understatement to call sloppy. Upon arrival, I was asked to stand for ten to fifteen minutes before being shown to my table, despite the restaurant being visibly half-empty: a wait that was neither justified nor courteous. Once seated, a second wait ensued: another fifteen minutes just to receive the menu, as if the act of consulting it itself were a privilege to be earned. From then on, the ordering and the dishes arrived in relatively normal times, but by then we were beyond irritated and impatient. The food, unfortunately, offers no redemption. Unremarkable dishes, lacking personality and memory, portions that were small to the point of being symbolic, and prices that were frankly exorbitant for what was on offer. It's a place that invests heavily in aesthetics—decor designed to catch the eye and enhance the scene—but neglects what should be central: the quality of the cuisine and customer service. I won't be returning, and I wouldn't recommend it to others either. Edit to the review after the restaurant's response: I'd like to clarify one point, as the response I received distorts what I wrote. The approximately thirty minutes cited were not part of a "slow and mindful" dining experience, but were spent solely on being seated and receiving the menu, in a place that was anything but crowded. Claiming these times as consistent with a "philosophy" seems inappropriate, to say the least: slowness, if chosen, is a value; if endured, it's simply inefficiency. I expect to be served in a respectable amount of time, after which I—not the restaurant—am free to decide whether to take a break, converse, or extend my stay. What made the wait even more unpleasant was the fact that, during that entire wait, no one bothered to ask if we'd like anything to drink, even just a glass of water. This isn't "taking your time," but a lack of customer service. I therefore reiterate my assessment: not a criticism of the calm, but of a service that attempts to gloss over its own shortcomings with a narrative that doesn't reflect the actual experience. Further update: I see the response has been edited, shifting the focus to my "tastes" based on other reviews. This is a minor observation: my assessment concerns specific events that occurred at your establishment, which I've described in detail. Blanking unjustified wait times and lack of customer service down to personal taste is a rather convenient way to avoid addressing the critical issues highlighted.

08/05/2026: Excellent experience, fixed menu, excellent and fresh food, in the middle of the mountains, outdoor garden and benches to sit outside, friendly and precise service, super meatballs in sauce, everything excellent from the various appetizers, first and second courses, exceptional quality/price. Congratulations.

11/05/2026: After three evenings in Tropea, we found a restaurant that was worth it. Excellent food and great local wine, as well as perfect service. The restaurant is a bit out of the center and without a terrace, but it is worth visiting.

08/06/2026: Clean and modern environment, friendly staff, and excellent food. I recommend it.

04/05/2026: I found it very good, excellent quality Rosella

14/04/2026: We visited this restaurant for lunch. The owner offered us a small plate of creamed fish soup and some delicious bread. We had two appetizers, one fish and one seafood, both very rich and tasty, a fried fish dish, and a seafood first course. The fried fish was crispy and tender, the pasta al dente but lightly seasoned. We paid €70, including coffee and sorbet. Overall, a good lunch; I recommend it.

20/05/2026: We went for dinner twice and the owner treated us very well. We wanted a light dinner both times and he didn't hesitate to help us put together our meal. You have to try the fennel (finocchio) salad with orange—it's delicious, with a surprisingly good flavor! A very pleasant place, and the friendliness of the owner and staff is outstanding. I definitely recommend it!

17/05/2026: Excellent food and a lovely welcome
