I migliori ristoranti di cucina cucina calabrese in Calabria

22/01/2026: A truly evocative location with a beautiful fireplace that reigns supreme in the room... the quality of the food is remarkable... the staff are courteous and professional... I would recommend this place to anyone.

21/01/2026: Always the best Excellent value for money Gluten-free menu Quality local wine Owners available for every need Romantic and panoramic location

09/10/2025: A very nice restaurant with an outdoor seating area located in an elegant little square. The food and wine selection are decent. The service is fast and professional. The quality/price ratio is average.

06/10/2025: Freshly cooked and good quality. Friendly service.

08/02/2026: We returned to this restaurant in the center of the village after a few years, welcomed by the owner who expertly guided us through the choice of dishes. Differing opinions among the diners (8) regarding the quality and originality of the dishes... I personally really enjoyed the roast goat. The cost-benefit ratio leaned a bit... towards the price. It's never worth ordering "center courses"; the classic individual portions are better. The village is always lovely.

13/01/2026: Excellent welcome and service. Exceptional cuisine. I highly recommend it.

14/01/2026: There were three of us for dinner. The appetizer was €20; the waiter insisted it was for one person, but it was actually three large dishes, and two people could easily eat. We ordered capra in umido (roasted goat), which was well-prepared, but be careful of the bone fragments left after the cook had cut it. We also ordered stufato di maialino (roasted pork) and carne de pastore (shepherd's meat). The portions of these three dishes were for one person and not enough to share. The house wine was excellent; it was definitely worth trying. Everything was very homemade and delicious. For dessert, I recommend a tartuffo di pizzo (chicken tart) per person: the best I've ever had. I'll be back.

13/01/2026: An experience I'll never repeat again, as far as I'm concerned: we ordered two appetizers for a whopping €20 each (the full menu with appetizer and first course), but only one arrived, and we still paid for two. One of the two appetizers (a stroncatura with anchovies) had smelly anchovies, meaning they were old or spoiled, and one of us was left without a first course. We reported this and were told that perhaps the flavor of the anchovies was "too strong," and that's just a matter of taste. No, the fish had actually gone bad. Even though we reported the problem and left the dish because it was imaginable, we were still charged the full amount. We definitely won't be returning.

Here you'll feel right at home: traditional dishes prepared with care and passion, generous portions, and a set menu that lets you try a little bit of everything without worry. The prices are more than fair for the quality offered. The staff is friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home. An authentic trattoria, highly recommended for those seeking authentic flavors and a family atmosphere.

01/10/2025: A real discovery! Trattoria dei Poeti is a classic place where tradition and authenticity reign supreme. The set menu is rich and varied, just like the best trattorias of the past: generous dishes, authentic flavors, and quality ingredients. The value for money is truly unbeatable, and the staff, always smiling and helpful, makes the experience even more enjoyable. I'll definitely be back!

17/11/2025: Nice pizzeria in a historic setting in Rossano. Good pizza, good prices. Very friendly owners and staff.

16/11/2025: The macaroni with porcini mushrooms was fantastic, and the pizza with porcini mushrooms was also delicious. I'd gladly come back again.

19/07/2025: Trovato per caso visto la sua vicinanza all uscita autostradale. La Cordialità unita alla ospitalità di Giampiero e del suo staff ci ha introdotti ad un pranzo sopra le aspettative, sapori genuini della cucina calabrese con porzioni generose e prezzo più che onesto Consigliatissimo

27/06/2025: Arrivati per puro caso ed è stata una splendida esperienza! Ottimi sia il cibo che il trattamento. Consigliatissimo a chi passa in questa zona.

18/10/2025: U Ricriju is Francesco. Unconditional love for his land and for traditional cuisine passed down from generation to generation. Genuine, locally sourced ingredients... Plus, it's a restaurant, but in his home. Try it and book in advance because he often travels around the world. Thanks again, a unique experience! Bravo!

16/02/2026: I stayed at Agriturismo E Turre and it was a truly unique experience. A special place where authenticity and tradition reign supreme in every detail. The cuisine is extraordinary: traditional dishes, prepared with locally sourced produce grown and processed directly by the farm. Authentic and intense flavors that are truly rare today. Without a doubt, one of the best agriturismos in Calabria. The rooms are welcoming, well-kept, and comfortable. The hospitality is impeccable: the warmth, attentiveness, and helpfulness make you feel instantly at home. Furthermore, the location is strategic: perfect for easily reaching some of the region's most beautiful tourist destinations, from the crystal-clear sea of ​​Tropea and Pizzo to the mountains and breathtaking landscapes of the Sila National Park. A place I highly recommend to anyone seeking relaxation, good food, and authenticity. I will definitely return!

04/01/2026: Top-quality food. One of my favorite restaurants. Authentic Calabrian cuisine.

01/01/2026: Stellar hospitality in Paterno Calabro. Highly recommended.

02/10/2025: The added value is definitely Alessandro, the host, who welcomes you and engages you with passion. The food is good, average I would say... the place seemed confusing to me, overall a positive experience.

07/11/2025: A quaint restaurant located in Antonimina. My wife and I stopped for lunch. The staff were friendly and the food was excellent on all courses. Their artisanal ice cream was delicious. We had a Calabrian appetizer, and that alone... Followed by spaghetti corte d'Assisi (a Calabrian specialty), simple and made with yellow tomatoes, chili pepper, and basil. They were excellent, among the best I've ever eaten. My wife instead chose spaghetti with porcini mushrooms (harvested in Aspromonte), which were excellent. To finish, roasted porcini mushrooms. All served with local wine. My experience was very positive.

08/09/2025: I can only comment on the appetizer because it's the only thing I ordered, as I wasn't very hungry that evening... plentiful, varied, and delicious, though the cured meats were very salty! The gelato was good, but served in a paper cup like a take-out ice cream... I'd advise the curly-haired waitress to try a half-smile or at least adopt a more appropriate demeanor.

10/01/2026: A splendid restaurant focused on elegant cuisine, yet never ephemeral or superficial. Careful selection of fresh, high-quality ingredients is showcased on the plate without frills. In short, the best possible celebration of Calabrian cuisine, presented in a modern and authentic way. We loved the Russian salad, the octopus, and the grouper. The wine list could perhaps be updated with labels from small local producers.

06/01/2026: Everything was perfect, probably the best seafood restaurant you can find in Calabria, top quality and combinations.

13/01/2026: Superlative! Excellent, very fresh fish.

07/01/2026: Welcoming and extremely clean place. High-quality food, friendly and welcoming staff. I highly recommend it.
