04/10/2025: We ate here while visiting Gerace, and had a wonderful time. The food was excellent, and we were served by a wonderful woman who made us feel at home and pampered. Highly recommended.

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.

01/04/2026: Welcoming place, kind staff attentive to customer needs.

26/03/2026: Very refined Sunday lunch, friendly and courteous staff. The location is a bit dated.

25/01/2026: Frankly, I don't understand all the reviews raving about this place...maybe I'm on the wrong day! I had lunch on a Sunday in January. I was in the Bagnara area, and, drawn by the reviews, I decided to book a table for four for 1 pm for my family. The woman I'm talking to kindly told me yes, but that they open at 12 pm, implying I could also come earlier. We went anyway at 1 pm sharp, and strangely, it was closed! Not being local, I started to suspect I'd made the wrong place, so I called and they told me they were about to open right then: thank goodness I hadn't come earlier! The atmosphere was nice, the staff friendly. We ordered a marinated anchovy appetizer, which was good but nothing special. The first courses, three different ones, had cooking issues. Not only were they not al dente, but the pasta was clearly overcooked, and three out of three of them weren't simply a mistake! The second courses were good, but again, nothing exceptional. The desserts (apple pie) were below expectations, considering I'd read reviews that described them as the best desserts I'd ever tried... who knows! Paying €20 for two slices of soggy cake that looked like it had been made by a novice leaves a bitter taste in my mouth, even more so than the dessert itself. The bottle of wine we chose was good, as were the glasses of sparkling wine we ordered to accompany the desserts, since I was celebrating my 50th birthday. For this very reason, I expected at least a complimentary coffee, but that didn't happen! The price was high, but it was reasonable for what we ordered and there were no surprises compared to the menu.

07/12/2025: Excellent, carefully crafted traditional cuisine, featuring the freshest local ingredients and perfectly paired with Calabrian wines. You'll appreciate the chef's rare ability to showcase local culinary traditions with just the right amount of creativity. The service is very efficient, and you'll always appreciate the scenery, the welcoming atmosphere, and the chef's exceptional hospitality. Excellent value.

11/04/2026: Il Carpaccio restaurant is a must-visit. The hot and cold appetizer is simply spectacular: quality Calabrian cured meats, exceptional meatballs, pickles, mushrooms, and countless other specialties. An explosion of authentic flavors, generous and carefully prepared: worth the dinner alone. The first courses are delicious.

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.

10/05/2026: A small, family-run gem, where a husband and wife team welcome guests with genuine warmth and a connection that shines through in every detail. The atmosphere is intimate and authentic, with stone walls and checkered tablecloths evoking the true tradition of Italian trattorias. Each dish tells a story of passion and simplicity: from golden, fragrant fritters to delicious montanarine with tomato and basil, to fresh cheeses accompanied by homemade jams. The mixed antipasti, featuring pickled vegetables and local cured meats, pave the way for authentic and well-balanced flavors. The desserts deserve a special mention: the fresh and fragrant lemon cheesecake and the millefeuille with cream and strawberries are the perfect finale to a lunch that feels like home and poetic. A place where time slows down and cooking becomes a gesture of love. Highly recommended for those seeking authenticity, friendliness, and flavors that speak of tradition.

09/05/2026: We were greeted by Mrs. Silvana with warmth and delighted us with her dishes. The "fixed" menu was perfect for us: we were practically full from the appetizers, but we enjoyed the fantastic first courses. The desserts and liqueurs were also excellent. It was all topped off with conversation and laughter. We will definitely be back. Best regards, Ilaria and Luciano

18/09/2025: Thank you, Peppe, for delighting us with your authentic Calabrian dishes on our last evening in your homeland! If you're looking for authentic Calabrian flavors, you can't miss dinner at Uliveto!
