I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Calabria

18/06/2025: POLITE staff and excellent dishes... No savings.

11/06/2025: On Saturday 7th June, returning from Sicily to Rome, we asked IA for a place to have lunch. Being close to Altomonte, they recommended Zio Pierino. We called before leaving the motorway because we thought they had already closed the kitchen, but instead they waited for our arrival. A festive welcome and excellent hospitality. The tasty home cooking. It seemed like we had returned to the 70s. A must-visit when passing through Altomonte

01/07/2025: It is worth tasting the local cuisine in a pleasant atmosphere and with good service.

30/06/2025: Characteristic location, very fresh fish. Kind and friendly staff

01/07/2025: Tenuta Contessa is a true Gem. A luxury hotel in a beautiful location. The view is spectacular. The hotels decor maintains the history of the location but is also incredibly modern. I was lucky to stay in the new wing in one of the new rooms. When we saw the pool we decided to not do the 1 hour drive to the coast t and enjoyed a full day at the pool. We made the right decision! The staff was more than friendly. Never in your face and always willing to be helpful. During our Stay we saw a wedding event. This is truly a great spot to have events. The location is spectacular with ample parking. We had dinner there one night. I would consider this a michelin Experience. The chef, Pietro Parisi, came out frequently to check on us. Presentation, Taste, and experience! A great dinner experience!

23/06/2025: What can I say!!! Amazing place, super food and hospitality. We celebrated my son's 18th birthday and we all felt at home. Highly recommended!!!! Lucia thanks for everything you have always been very kind and helpful.. see you next time 😘

26/06/2025: Very nice people, excellent food and fair prices

17/06/2025: Nice place with few dishes on the menu but very well executed. Impeccable and attentive service and bill in line with what was eaten and at a convenient price. To return as I do when I am in the area...

22/06/2025: Lovely little restaurant. Excellent food of great quality. I will be back soon. Great kindness. I highly recommend trying it

09/06/2025: A bit tricky to reach – but worth the effort! We were greeted with Prosecco and a welcome from the kitchen – we had arrived. The food was very good – including the wine recommendation. The highlight was the dessert: a fluffy pear-shaped cake topped with bergamot cream and then sprinkled with "octopus." It's a must-see!

30/06/2025: I loved eating at agritourisms but I always have trouble knowing if what I eat is really healthy. At Valle del Salto seeing the chef coming back from the garden with what would be dinner made me understand that I was in the right place. I also asked to take a tour of the company and one of the owners, seeing that I was curious about the type of approach they used, explained to me in detail the regeneration work they were doing on the company. It is a family-run company and you experience this in the restaurant as well as in the agricultural part. I have never seen so many different animals in a agriturismo and above all the super fair prices. I did not stay in the rooms but I asked to see them for a future visit. I will definitely return in the company of other friends or grandchildren who love animals.

29/06/2025: 4 friends on motorbikes, top welcome with cool motorbike parking, then excellent meat and very kind and friendly people

20/06/2025: Delicious food, ok prices, top cleanliness and kindness! You can't ask for more! Well done

13/06/2025: Informal atmosphere, excellent value for money. Stuffed squid, green beans, water and bread €13. Recommended for a quick lunch (very fast service despite the many people waiting).

05/04/2025: A nice little place where you can eat really well and with an excellent quality/price ratio. The service is fast and the staff is very kind; the location is a little out of the way for those who are not local but it is a very nice place. Inside a little small but very intimate. Experience to be repeated. Highly recommended

26/03/2025: We were there for lunch (they were very kind since it was past 2pm telling us that we could have lunch without problems) the food was very good, portions just right to fill you up without exaggerating. Value for money in the norm.

25/05/2025: I go to this place often and willingly. Excellent food quality, excellent service, welcoming, relaxing environment with attention to the smallest details. I recommend trying it for a unique experience!

11/05/2025: Good taste, the cult of beauty and the ability to pay attention to detail makes them unique even in floral compositions.

16/06/2025: We went to eat at this place, because we were passing through. I'll just say that we found "excellence" in everything, from the service to the dishes. My wife was also amazed by the order and cleanliness as well as the environment. What else to add, highly recommended. I also point out that the prices are really competitive. Well done.👍

30/05/2025: Super welcoming place, friendly staff, fresh stockfish, delicious and not heavy. Rich and abundant menu. I was skeptical about a full stockfish menu, not really liking fish... but I was charmed, more than satisfied. Top menu prices. Excellent service, I even found a dry stain remover with brush in the bathroom. 👍🏻 We were having lunch with a celiac and they were very careful to satisfy his requests with dedicated dishes.

16/06/2025: I was literally blown away by my dinner at Ristorante Pizzeria "Da Cesare". It's been a long time since I found a place that could so masterfully combine quality raw materials, authentic flavors and a warm and welcoming atmosphere. We decided to try both the seafood specialties and the pizza, and we were speechless. The Fish: The freshness is the first thing that strikes you. We ordered a seafood appetizer and a mixed grill and every bite was a dive into the Mediterranean. The fish was cooked to perfection, tasty but delicate, making the most of its excellent quality. You can immediately tell that there is a careful selection and great passion behind it. The Pizza: Intrigued by the magnificent appearance of the pizzas we saw passing by, we shared one. A perfect choice! The dough was light, fragrant and very digestible, with a pronounced crust and cooked to perfection. The ingredients on top, from mozzarella to tomato, were top quality. A true textbook pizza, one of the best I've ever tried in the area. The service was impeccable: attentive, kind and always smiling staff, ready to advise and make the evening perfect. In short, Ristorante Pizzeria "Da Cesare" has immediately become one of my favorite places. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to eat very well, whether you want a sublime fish dish or a pizza that never disappoints. Bravi, bravo, bravo! We'll be back very soon.

16/06/2025: It's a wonderful place, the food is good and everything is fresh, the owners are kind and modest about their work so I had a great time and am considering coming back again and again.

02/07/2025: I could only try the pizza, which was a bit dry for my taste. Packed with people

18/06/2025: Historic pizza fry shop in Crotone. For me the best. There is no service, very few seats but on the other hand pizza and calzones 10 and praise…

05/07/2025: One of the best pizzas in Calabria... nothing else to add.

24/05/2025: I went about a year ago, good pizza, even the gluten-free one. They gave me some problems when I pointed out that the taste of the pizza was different from the one I ordered and since it was the gluten-free one it was difficult to change, I asked to redo another one and they told me that it would take more than half an hour (they wanted to tell me to settle for this one). I thank all the pizzerias that make an effort to have gluten-free pizza, but I think a little more courtesy and availability would be needed. I don't look for gluten-free by choice but because I'm forced.

23/06/2025: Really attentive service. A good choice for people looking for gluten-free options.

23/06/2025: Everything was impeccable!! Delicious fish and attentive service

19/06/2025: The fish was definitely fresh: I had spectacular octopus tentacles, a real highlight. However, I was a little disappointed by the spaghetti with clams and the fritto misto, which didn't convince me entirely. The food isn't bad, no, but personally I don't think I'll go back a second time.

18/06/2025: We ate there twice during our vacation. We can only agree with the praise in the reviews above. We would love to come back.
