The restaurant is welcoming and meticulously curated, with a pleasant atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease.

My husband and I went for dinner and were blown away by the quality of the food — everything was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared.

13/08/2025: Nestled in a stunning landscape, opposite the renowned Sant'Adriano Park, the Corsini restaurant shines with its own light! Expertise, kindness, cleanliness, and meticulous attention to detail are just some of its distinguishing features, but above all, the excellent quality of the products used in the dishes, expertly prepared by chef Franco, stands out. The attentive eye of manager Mario and maitre d' Enzo ensure that guests feel pampered and satisfied. I highly recommend trying the fish specialties. Excellent value.

14/09/2025: ...I didn't think I'd write a review...I just went for a small family event....5 STARS....try it!

03/01/2026: Five of us had lunch at this restaurant, chosen on a recommendation for the quality of the fish. Unfortunately, the experience was very disappointing. We had booked for 1:00 PM, and at 1:05 PM we were rushed to order, even though one of our group members, who had arrived at 1:10 PM, was still missing. Upon his arrival, we were asked to order almost immediately, without having had time to carefully review the menu. At 1:40 PM, we asked if we could have a second course, but were told it wasn't possible because we would have to vacate the table at 2:00 PM. At 1:55 PM, the waitress showed up with the POS terminal for payment, and by 1:58 PM, we were already out of the restaurant. I understand the shift system, but a lunch lasting less than an hour, under constant pressure, is unacceptable. It's a shame, because the quality of the food is overshadowed when the service is so rushed and unwelcoming.

02/01/2026: Great place, great food, and very friendly staff. Highly recommended.

02/11/2025: Very nice guy, good cocktails. Highly recommended.

26/10/2025: Stop, drink, repeat 🥂 Moto of the evening Bartender very friendly

13/03/2026: Last week I had the pleasure of dining at this Calabrian restaurant, and the experience was truly excellent. As soon as you enter, you immediately sense a warm and welcoming atmosphere: a well-kept, family-friendly place brimming with that authentic Calabrian soul that makes you feel almost at home. The atmosphere is pleasant and relaxing, perfect for enjoying a leisurely dinner. The cuisine is the restaurant's true strength. The dishes are prepared with traditional Calabrian ingredients, rich in flavor and beautifully presented. You can taste the quality of the ingredients and the respect for local recipes. Each course exudes authenticity and passion for local cuisine. Another very positive aspect is the quality-price ratio: generous portions, authentic dishes, and truly excellent prices. In short, a restaurant I absolutely recommend to anyone who wants to discover or rediscover the true flavors of Calabria in a welcoming environment. I will definitely be back!

05/03/2026: Trattoria run the old fashioned way. Good food at a reasonable price and served with a smile. We went twice, and if we had stayed longer, we would have gone every day. Thank you.

17/02/2026: I spent many summers in Caulonia, but during the summer it becomes difficult to truly appreciate a place. The prevailing cuisines I've savored over time, as a Lodi native imported by love, were those of my mother-in-law and aunts (woe betide anyone who misses an appointment). Marcello was therefore a surprise. The restaurant has been "clean" since its renovation, easier to get to than it was years ago. A beautiful terrace that I imagine would be pleasantly enjoyed on spring/summer evenings. Excellent food. Typical appetizers, which are actually not at all typical because everyone prepares them differently; here at Marcello's they are very pleasant and "saucy," just right, not too heavy, with light and tasty fried foods (the zippuli on sunnu are made in a unique way!!!). Truly well-made first courses, with a courteous assize court above all others. The wine list is understated but well-chosen, and doesn't overdo it, excluding any "international" options. Overall, a very fair quality-to-price ratio. Impeccable service. A table near Alexia, but with good music. The spacious space is pleasantly accommodating even the potential for English beer-fueled noise. Worth a try, even in the summer.

03/02/2026: Beautiful now that it has been renovated even more fantastic 👍👍

15/03/2026: Carefully following the owner's directions, given that the restaurant is located in a unique spot on Strada Statale 106, in the blazing August sun we arrived at what we might call a step back in time: an ancient olive mill that even centuries ago could and did provide refreshments to customers waiting to take home the oil from their own olives. The cool, air-conditioned space, divided into two spacious rooms, is steeped in the history of simple times gone by, yet still distinctive, like its cuisine, its sumptuous dishes, its house specialties, the varied home-cooked menu, the enormous fireplace, and the kind and attentive wait staff. We left the restaurant as if we had stepped out of a museum of Catanzaro cuisine, calm, full, and satisfied.

27/02/2026: I agree with the positive reviews from many other users. The place is welcoming and the staff is friendly and helpful. The quality of the food is unquestionable. Excellent value for money. It's now a must-visit for me when I'm traveling to or from Catanzaro.

29/01/2026: Exceptional. Fresh fish and excellent value for money.

16/01/2026: Great experience. Truly exceptional food, very kind and helpful staff. Special thanks for the attention and care for those who didn't eat fish. Highly recommended!

30/12/2025: Enchanting place, with a breathtaking view, especially at sunset.

17/11/2025: They received an excellent welcome; this is exactly what one imagines the perfect marinaro to be.
