I migliori ristoranti in Cosenza

25/12/2025: I wanted to share my extremely negative experience with the elderly gentleman at the bar. I asked if they could heat up some bottle water for my baby, who was crying—I should point out that she's just a 3-month-old baby—and the gentleman said no, because the machines were turned off because he had just heated up some appetizer snacks in the microwave. I should also point out that it's a bar where we often stopped for appetizers. But obviously, he won't be seeing us or our friends and relatives again.

15/10/2025: Excellent coffee and cocktails. Kudos to the waiter with the ponytail for his professionalism and the cocktail he recommended.

07/09/2025: A quiet and welcoming location, surrounded by greenery, where you can spend a wonderful day. The food is good, high-quality, and the staff are friendly. We were very satisfied.

24/08/2025: Very beautiful suggestive environment

22/01/2026: I went there for lunch and ordered the mixed fried appetizer with raw meatballs, followed by a mixed grilled meat, which was also all raw. Not to mention the very rude staff. The price was excessively high for the quality. I was also promised a discount due to the mistake, but that never happened. I strongly advise against it.

04/11/2025: Great and cheap location but really old toilet building and showers. A shame as it has the potential to be beautiful

26/10/2025: First of all, I must say that the facility, the restaurant staff (Filomena, Francesca, Elisabetta, Saverio, Mario, and all the others), as well as the kind lady at the kiosk and her husband, etc., do an excellent job and are always friendly and helpful. The food is excellent and the prices are average. This review concerns only the very, very poor entertainment, especially the incompetent and miserable puppet gigolo. He has a rude attitude that is inappropriate for this facility. He openly insults guests and, under the guise of being funny, makes fun of everyone. In 40 years, I have never seen anything like it, especially not in Calabria. This person should be fired immediately and should not be paid for his squalid behavior. The other ladies and gentlemen in blue uniforms were rather soporific and neither entertained nor motivated. They spent more time at the pool than anywhere else. I would not have entrusted my children to any of these people. We would return, but only if there were a friendly and respectful staff again (such as in the summer of 2023 or 2024). Then we would be happy to upgrade our rating.

06/04/2026: I was there on Easter Monday, everything was delicious, very friendly and kind staff👏👏👏👏

29/03/2026: The true flavors of Pollino. Excellent cuisine. Local products. Average price. Highly recommended.

21/12/2025: What can I say... a place immersed in nature and respectful of it, with very attentive and kind staff and owners. A five-star location, a place we will definitely return to. We felt right at home, welcomed by a beautiful, warm, and inviting fireplace. My heartfelt congratulations, and ad maiora semper!

23/08/2025: I won't go back, I was too disappointed.

22/04/2026: The welcome was nonexistent and the service was completely improvised. We waited 45 minutes for our menus, and when they finally arrived, they were completely cold. The quality of the food also left much to be desired. Overall, a negative experience.

13/04/2026: Unfortunately, I can't give a positive review. The appetizers we ordered were good, including octopus salad with potatoes and the two mussels available. The paccheri with red prawns were awful; the pasta was rubbery and cold, the prawns were raw, and some were acidic. They seemed recycled and mixed in with the pasta. The plates used smelled of stale fish and looked poorly washed. Six of us ordered the same first course to speed up service, but we still had to wait over 45 minutes. The service was chaotic and poorly organized, but despite this, the waiters were kind. Basically, we only ate the appetizers, left the first courses, and went away to have lunch with an ice cream at the nearby ice cream shop. We mentioned the situation at checkout, but an employee was present and didn't know what to say. A word of advice: attention should be given to all customers, not just those we know or love. The best advertising is a customer who leaves satisfied and speaks highly of the place in every way.

03/04/2026: Excellent service and excellent preparation of the dishes we ate, kind and knowledgeable staff, excellent cleanliness and hospitality. Thank you and see you next time.

18/01/2026: The owner of the place treats you with little friendliness if you are a foreigner and is more interested in your money than in offering you good service.

07/02/2026: They made me pay for the wrong chocolate, even though it was watery, only because the staff thought it wasn't.

05/10/2025: Friendly staff, quality ingredients. Top-notch pizza.

18/02/2026: A truly authentic Italian Saturday evening. Dressed up for dinner, dancing and chatting with the whole family – everyone was there. A wonderful experience.

15/04/2026: A regular stop every time I'm in Fuscaldo. Great girls, excellent product, excellent service.

12/09/2025: We went for dinner two nights in a row. The first night, we ordered two pizzas. The second night, we ordered a plate of seafood pasta, which was good, and a plate of tagliatelle with mushrooms, which I wasn't happy with because, upon eating it, I immediately realized it was frozen food from the "quattro salti in padella" brand. If this is the treatment, I don't think we'll be back.

07/08/2025: Although the food was good, the owner and staff were an absolute disaster. I ordered a meal and one drink – a 1-liter bottle of cola. The waiter brought a smaller one, so I pointed it out, and he exchanged it for the one I had ordered. But when it came time to pay, I discovered that the bill was too high. I went to the staff to ask them to correct the mistake, but no one spoke English. I tried to communicate using a translator on my phone, but the owner completely ignored it. He said the cola had been ordered and opened (by the waiter), so I had to pay for it. I tried to explain that it wasn’t fair, but he didn’t listen to me at all. In the end, he rudely told me that since I was in Italy, I should speak Italian, not English. In my opinion, this was totally inappropriate, and the owner was very aggressive – he made rude gestures and spoke to us in a disrespectful way. One thing is certain – I will never go back there again

16/09/2025: Carlino's granitas are historic and delicious, but the organization leaves one a little perplexed.

20/08/2025: TERRIBLE SERVICE! The staff was rude, impolite, and completely unprofessional. We were at a table of five. One of our guests raised his hand to ask if there was table service, and the waitress looked at us, turned away with a disgusted expression, and yelled, "There's no table service." We were treated this way, so we decided to inform the owner, only to be treated arrogantly once again, except for one young man who embarrassedly apologized...
