I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Calabria

31/12/2025: I've been to this restaurant for dinner several times, always with family. The welcome and service were fantastic, right to the end. The food was local and excellent, and the prices were reasonable. I always love returning.

24/12/2025: Quick, super appetizer, delicious fresh pasta with sausage and mushroom sauce.

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.

27/04/2026: Excellent bar just steps from Reggio Emilia Central Station. Super friendly staff and a wide selection of products. Excellent breakfast.

17/02/2026: Delicious coffee and plenty of pastries to choose from. Good place. Great prices :)

02/02/2026: I've been to your place a couple of times, and each time I've felt right at home. The food is authentic, made with love, and the price is right. But what truly stands out is the welcome: rare, sincere, and human. Mr. Vincenzo, thank you so much for what you do and how you do it. I hope to return soon to sit at your table and enjoy your delicacies again.

21/10/2025: A wonderful escape from the summer heat and crowded beaches. The landscape is enchanting: a beautiful and evocative corner of the Sila, less crowded than the mountainous areas of Cosenza. The establishment is beautiful and welcoming, the cuisine is remarkable, and the service is excellent. Suitable for families and guests seeking a healthy environment and authentic cuisine. The owners' friendliness and hospitality do the rest. It's rare to find people so knowledgeable, passionate, and so deeply connected to their local area. It would be wonderful to have lunch there in the fall, too, when certain mountain produce is at its finest...

06/03/2026: I discovered this pizzeria a few years ago on the recommendation of friends, and it was truly a wonderful discovery. Don't expect to enter a super-luxury place; here you enter and breathe in the nostalgic '80s; it's like stepping back in time. 🤩 Every time I pass through Cirò, I stop by. I won't tell you that the pizza is excellent, made with quality ingredients and a well-leavened dough—that would be superfluous—but I will emphasize the fact that the pizza is easy to digest, and above all, after several hours, you don't get that ravenous thirst that comes with an overly salty dough. Highly recommended 😉

13/02/2026: A good restaurant on Locri's main street. Local specialties, mostly seafood, but also some meat options. Quick and friendly service. Good wine list. Average prices.

05/02/2026: Extraordinary dishes, textbook pizza, and illegal desserts!!! Enzo, who served us, is passionate and attentive to his work. We'll be back in the area for work, and it will remain our go-to place in the future.

21/04/2026: This is the best fish restaurant in Calabria, and maybe in Italy :). Everything was great, the food is unbeatable, the service is excellent. Come, don't miss out!

27/01/2026: I ate at this restaurant recommended by friends. It was my first time at this restaurant on Via Piave 133 in Cosensa. We were a group of seven. I immediately noticed the owner's hospitality, the cleanliness, and above all, the cuisine. The fish was cooked with simplicity and harmony, with a balance of flavors and imaginative presentation. I will definitely return. The fish was expertly prepared. Congratulations!

16/10/2025: We stayed at Agriturismo La Palombara, a wonderful place completely surrounded by greenery for those seeking relaxation and the perfect place! The location is excellent for reaching Cascia, Assisi, Norcia, and more. Emanuele and Sara are two excellent hosts, always ready to pamper you and fulfill our every request. The breakfast was excellent, with homemade cakes prepared by the sweet Sara! What can I say? We had a wonderful time and will be back soon! ❤️

06/10/2025: Spectacular place surrounded by greenery. Emanuele's kindness and helpfulness are priceless. Thank you, Silvia and Omar.

26/03/2026: Food and atmosphere simple and perfect. I would definantly visit again.

26/04/2026: We went here for dinner. Carlo and Chiara welcomed us with kindness and warmth. We had a wonderful time. We ate fish, an excellent fresh sea bass cooked to perfection, and while we waited, they offered us a couple of traditional appetizers. The dessert, with lemon, was also very good. We paid €78 for two, which was enough for the service and the excellent dinner. I highly recommend it.

07/04/2026: Beautiful place and Carlo is a real friend, the restaurant is very welcoming and the food is excellent, the rooms are beautiful and all conveniently located, and it is a few steps from the sea
