I migliori ristoranti in Calabria

22/05/2026: Excellent quality, excellent products, but poor service at the checkout.

24/04/2026: Excellent place and above all excellent pizza, friendly staff

30/04/2026: Large and spacious rooms, excellent breakfast, available parking. Friendly staff. Just steps from the Castle and the beach.

28/04/2026: Beautiful rooms, excellent breakfast, and a quality restaurant attached

30/09/2025: The owner and the entire staff provided impeccable hospitality and service. We ordered a mixed antipasto to share, a calamarata with snapper, a grilled fish, a tuna and onion platter, a half-fried fish platter (not to be missed), two sorbets, and a bottle of wine and water. The quality and freshness of the fish was excellent. The prices were fair. We also enjoyed a short musical performance, which made everything even more special. We felt right at home.

16/09/2025: San Nicola Arcella is a charming place. In September, you can enjoy the tranquility of its narrow streets, which unwittingly led us to Ristorante Oriente. Enjoy its carefully crafted and flavorful dishes and the warmth of homely comforts, chatting with Nicola and recounting his life stories. We enjoyed the cavatielli with tuna and a delicious fried fish dish. We'll be back to try other dishes from the extensive menu.

31/10/2025: Sweet and savory dishes in a wide variety in the most central part of the village

28/08/2025: Excellent ice creams, granitas, and pastries. The mini ice creams are large, tasty, and delicious. Spacious space with several tables.

19/04/2026: Great place to enjoy quality pizza.

21/03/2026: Very welcoming and clean place. The gentleman who served us was truly kind and professional. We enjoyed the dishes we tasted. The only flaw... the carafe wine, which is to be avoided. Prices are normal. Recommended.

26/03/2026: Cosimo is a very nice host and cooks excellent Calabrian food. We were cycling the Ciclovia dei Parchi Calabria and stayed overnight in Canolo at his son Alessandro's place. The room was perfect for us cyclists, with everything we needed...both are super nice hosts. Highly recommended to stop and stay overnight if you're cycling the Ciclovia dei Parchi Calabria! Grazie mille!

01/01/2026: I was here at the beginning of December, I went to Locri to visit some friends and they told me I couldn't leave without going to eat here. It is about half an hour from Locri, we passed through Gerace (a splendid village worth visiting) until we arrived in Canolo in the heart of Aspromonte (you can also get here by other routes, cycle path and for walkers the Brigand's Path). The location started around the 70s/80s with a small room which then expanded over time and now there is a large room that can also host weddings or ceremonies, the style and furnishings are from the period. Cosimo's welcome is family-like, it's like going to visit a relative, attentive, courteous service and available to satisfy any need. The menu is varied, here you eat the sincere and genuine Calabrian tradition there is little room for experimental cuisine, this is the kingdom of opulence we had a complete appetizer two samples of first course and a grilled (everything cooked very well and with the right flavors) everything was so abundant that anything we didn't manage to eat we brought home. The price if I remember correctly was €30, exceptional value for money. There's a large parking lot, and when it's warm, there are tables outside. Coming here, you quickly go from sea level to mountainside, and the temperature difference is noticeable—about 10 degrees Celsius in summer and winter, so come here with appropriate clothing. That said, I can't wait to return to Calabria to visit him again. If you're in the area, I recommend trying this experience.

28/07/2025: With this wonderful location, it was love at first sight—that's how we like to describe it. We immediately fell in love with Ester and maître d' Franco. Thank you so much for your kindness, your much-appreciated meticulous attention to detail, and your ability to fulfill all our requests with excellence and impeccability. Everything was perfect: the spaces were perfectly managed, the food was simply EXCELLENT, and the staff was helpful and well-trained. It will be wonderful to remember our wedding in your Villa and associate it with a loving, familiar, and extremely refined setting! Thank you, Ester and maître d'Franco, for every smile. You made us feel at home. We will NEVER forget it! 🤍🥹

30/06/2025: We chose this enchanting place as the location for our wedding. The staff is professional and qualified. Ester, the owner, is very careful in managing and taking care of every aspect of the wedding from planning to realization. The menu is exquisite, the appetizer buffet and the fruit and dessert buffet are very rich and presented in a refined way. The setting of the room is fairytale and the gardens are dreamlike. We couldn't have chosen better, we will definitely return for other events.

05/06/2026: We had a really good seafood pasta dish and a really well-made fried dish. The location isn't great, but the food was divine! I highly recommend it.

24/05/2026: I recommend the appetizer and the absurd fried calamari...

22/03/2026: Quiet atmosphere, excellent service. Delicious pizza with excellent toppings. I'll definitely be back.

03/06/2026: Good food, very rude and annoyed head waiter during service.

02/06/2026: Traditional and excellent food. The only flaw is the waitress, who is a bit unfriendly and sometimes rude. The rest of the staff is friendly and kind. I wouldn't go back because of the waitress.

27/05/2026: To savor the best of the cuisine rooted in the traditions of the Riviera dei Cedri hinterland and experience truly panoramic sunsets between the sea and the mountains. This is stunning Grisolia.

26/05/2026: We ate 2 steaks with potatoes, the meat was good in my opinion, a little expensive

14/02/2026: We were a group of friends heading home, further south than Belvedere, and we trusted the positive reviews. It was all true! The pizzeria was clean, even the restrooms (it felt like home, and it's not easy to find them like that everywhere). The staff was incredibly kind: They welcomed us with a tomato bruschetta, which was much appreciated. Pre-pizza: classic French fries with their skins on were plentiful and delicious, but the real highlight was the pizza. We weren't expecting it: HUGE pizza, thin, crispy, and cooked in the oven (in full view). Highly recommended pizzeria! Kudos to all the staff and owners!

08/01/2026: Superior pizzas, both in quality and size. We'll definitely be back...

07/10/2025: Everything was fantastic: the sea, the beach, the very welcoming structure. The restaurant and service were excellent. All thanks to the owners' professionalism and hospitality.

01/10/2025: In mid-September, my family and I went on vacation near Santa Caterina and had a wonderful time at the Lido. We were there almost every day, especially for lunch. We tried almost the entire menu, including the tasty appetizers, the delicious first courses, including the gnocchi made by the fantastic, unparalleled chef, the exquisite second courses, the highly digestible pizzas, the delicious side dishes, the ice creams, the desserts, the phenomenal Calabrian liqueurs, etc. Our family spent a joyful and peaceful time as guests of the Leto family and their serious and dedicated staff. They all work hard to make your stay in their company a pleasant one, always with a smile, with tranquility, calm, and serenity, with the backdrop of their sea, that of Santa Caterina, which sweetens and makes the presence in the Lido dei Fiori di Ciliegio invigorating. Well done, well done everyone, Ad Maiora 👏👏👏

06/04/2026: Having finished the French fries, a typical Sila product, on Easter Monday at 1.30pm, speaks for itself.

28/02/2026: I trusted the reviews and was wrong. The sandwiches were very greasy, as were the potatoes. The sausage was low-quality and overpriced. A 33cl beer costs €4 and they serve it in a plastic cup. There aren't even plastic cutlery for eating side dishes. The outdoor benches are appropriate for the setting. There's no service, as you pick up your food at the kiosk and bring it directly to your table.
