I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Calabria

01/09/2025: It's a shame to have to confirm, in one place, both triumph and fall, good and evil. On the one hand, I can only praise what still lingers on the palate: the softness of the filled leavened pastry, enveloped in a delicate yet flavorful custard, vanished in a flash, a victim of my unstoppable greed. Nor can I remain silent about the almond pastry, which, though I'd never loved it, in this case won me over to the point of igniting a secret and unexpected love. But on the other hand, alas, not the taste but the tone. The attitude of the person manning the counter seemed to tell us that our very existence was a nuisance: few smiles, little cordiality, and that subtle aura of impatience that ill-suits those who live on diners and vacationers. Let me be clear: I'm not asking you to sacrifice quality on the altar of service: the art of baking is too precious. But at least the humble gesture of a smile, a kind word, the knowledge that here aren't just customers, but souls seeking refreshment and memories of the sea. And so, while the custard still dances in my memories, the bitter thought remains that here, sugar abounds in every dessert, but it's not enough to sweeten the soul of those behind the counter.

25/08/2025: They didn't let us in because we were in our swimsuits (the shop is 100 meters from the beach) and the lady at the entrance was particularly rude

07/09/2025: A quiet and welcoming location, surrounded by greenery, where you can spend a wonderful day. The food is good, high-quality, and the staff are friendly. We were very satisfied.

24/08/2025: Very beautiful suggestive environment

04/09/2025: A shabby restaurant, but it would be overlooked if the food was good. Over-frozen fish and spoiled mussels passed off as fresh. We were all disappointed! Everything was brought to the attention of the staff! The staff noted and confirmed the poor quality of the product and dismissed the matter by telling the kitchen they would report it. After that, nothing! Total indifference! Avoid this experience!

19/08/2025: The waiters and pizza chefs are yelling, the bread is hard and at least two days old, I ordered Coke twice and it never arrived, the dish arrived 45 minutes after I ordered it (a fried dish, and the place was half empty), the waiters forget things. Less than zero

07/10/2025: Nice and very friendly owners, very kind collaborators

15/09/2025: A bar like many others, there is outdoor seating inside, it is very very small, nothing special, the coffee is like all Chinese bars

01/11/2025: I went to eat with the family, I ordered an appetizer, meat and baked potatoes as a side dish, I have to say that the meat was good, but I didn't like the appetizer, the potato croquette was hot on the outside and cold on the inside 🤐, the baked potatoes, especially the small and whole ones, were wrinkled, full of oil and with an unpleasant taste😟😟, the icing on the cake was a too high bill, I definitely won't go back there again

25/10/2025: I give it a 5-star rating for everything... a welcoming place, excellent quality food, excellent service... friendly staff... I recommend it to all lovers of good meat.

29/08/2025: As a Sicilian I can say that I had a granita that tasted like anything but granita, tasteless with crushed ice and tasteless brioche... We definitely won't be back!!

28/08/2025: We came with some friends to try their granita and it seemed anything but that!!! Crushed ice... very little cream and packaged brioche that also had a bad smell... I will never come again!

29/09/2025: A very lovely place; I was there for a very intimate wedding reception. Aesthetically beautiful and rustic, large and surrounded by olive trees and countryside. Good food and very friendly staff. A little tricky to get to, on a dirt road, but you can get there by being careful with your GPS.

18/06/2025: I was there for my nephew's 18th birthday...beautiful location even if a bit neglected. Really good food but the staff is to be avoided at all costs. Especially the owner's sister. For this reason alone I wouldn't go back.

03/02/2026: The food is good, the staff is friendly, but it could be better!!!

01/01/2026: The place is a bit cold, and the prices are well above average. The food is average.

10/10/2025: Highly recommended Delicious pastries and friendly, knowledgeable staff. A lovely restaurant inside. Spotlessly clean bathrooms.

28/09/2025: High prices, bathrooms: at best, they're indecent, dirty from morning onwards, almost all closed and without toilet paper, filthy sinks and no soap. Never again!!!

27/10/2025: We were at this agriturismo for the first time yesterday, and it was a pleasant surprise. Quiet, child-friendly place. We enjoyed an excellent appetizer and tagliatelle 🔝. Congratulations to all the staff, especially Romeo, who looked after us so attentively!!! We'll be back!!!

30/08/2025: Beautiful place, very quiet, excellent food, everything clean and well organized ☺️

02/04/2026: Despite a wide selection of reasonably priced pastries (I haven't tried the savory ones) in a spacious setting, the staff is disorganized, with frequent changes, often resulting in excessive waits, both at the dessert counter and at the tables. What's absolutely deplorable and annoying, however, is the habit of rounding up the bill at the cashier, even by a few cents. It happened to me twice out of two times, paying by card, with two different cashiers, which makes me think there's a method. And this affects my overall rating. Goodbye!

28/03/2026: Terrible service. Waiters incapable of doing their jobs. The wait was long, even for a simple coffee, let alone an aperitif. Too bad. The atmosphere is also nice.

08/09/2025: The location is lovely, offering a beautiful view of the Tropea sea. We were greeted by a very friendly and helpful young man, but unfortunately, the man taking our orders arrived as soon as we were seated, rushing us, making it impossible to choose our dishes. He was also quite annoyed. Despite everything, we ate reasonably well, except for the first course, which, strangely, arrived less than five minutes later, so we assumed it was already ready. The tuna steak with onion was good, but I would pay more attention to the plating.

03/09/2025: I'll be brief because I almost never leave negative reviews, but I didn't feel like a tourist here, so I had to warn you. As soon as we arrived, they told us the starters weren't available. We asked for the tuna steak to be cooked more, which was brought without asking us how cooked it was. They said no because they had already closed the kitchen. 3 PM? Maybe 3:30 PM max? I asked to charge my phone and was told, "Madam, we're about to close, remember to take it back." So, a 5-minute charge was a blessing. Then they hadn't even asked for coffee yet, and the cashier lady, as she passed by, asked me to settle the bill because they were closing the counter. 😐 Well, now tell me, in a seaside place like Tropea, should tourists be served like this? I gave it 3 stars only for the view and the food, otherwise I would have given it 1 or 2 stars at most.

28/12/2025: The wait for two pizzas was an hour and a half. The place wasn't full. Not recommended.

28/12/2025: Excellent pizza, excellent service, a little slow

25/10/2025: The food is disgusting. They sell supermarket-style pre-pizza pizzas: inedible. The toasted pizza was fried; we had to throw it away. Only good for a snack.

26/09/2025: One of the best beach bars in Italy! Very friendly, familiar & very good food and drinks! Ask for the Salsiccia Hot Dog! #thetallguyfromgermania
