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

12/08/2025: I had a Nutella and Lotus flavored gelato. I found the former a little too sweet, but I recommend the latter. I liked the artisanal waffle. The staff was friendly; for those craving a refreshing gelato, this place seems to have just the right ingredients.

26/07/2025: An experience to repeat, the ice cream is really good and the people who work there are very kind.

11/10/2025: We had an okay meal at Hostaria Italiana. Our food was broadly okay, I ordered a pasta dish and my partner some fish. The fish was overcooked and my pasta with Tropea onions was nice, but not as good as others nearby. Good option if you’re just looking for something quick.

14/07/2025: Assolutamente da evitare. Io sono stata in molte pizzerie napoletane ma questa la peggiore...bordo alto...bello all'apparenza ma poi mangiandola pizza con mozzarella fredda e appena appena sciolta. Bordo crudo all interno e bruciato fuori. Calzone con impasto tutto crudo.mai più. E in più abbiamo aspettato 50 minuti e quando ho detto che ne ne sarei andata è arrivata dopo 5 minuti

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.

22/08/2025: I took the pizza to go, very good

10/08/2025: Good pizza Friendly waiters Good atmosphere Average prices, except for the cover charge, which is a bit more expensive, about €3.50 if I'm not mistaken, but otherwise, it's okay.

25/08/2025: The beach with its own restaurant, which I reviewed separately, is welcoming and well-run! Comfortable and affordable! As is the restaurant! It's hard to find a place in August, with such affordable prices and such comprehensive service! Congratulations!

10/08/2025: Never again! For a Greek salad (which didn't even have all the ingredients) more than 50 minutes. Unbelievable. To pay €10 for it with four tomatoes.

21/08/2025: They have 2 puppies in front trapped, suffering from the heat, full of fleas, with green water without food, thin

19/08/2025: Excellent products and great prices. Artisanal nougat, peaches, biscuits, and lots of choice. Very friendly service.

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

16/08/2025: A peaceful haven surrounded by nature, unique and simple! A family atmosphere, excellent food (generous portions), excellent meatballs, generous appetizers, and a delicious ricotta timbale. The staff are helpful and attentive. A great pit stop for those looking for a weekend filled with traditional flavors and then continuing on to the Sila Mountains or the seaside.

12/10/2025: Phenomenal pizza by the slice. The "slice" is by weight, but the prices are absolutely fair. The aroma of the authentic bread is noticeable, as is the quality of the ingredients. A must for a quick, affordable, and quality snack. Recommended -- Updated October 2025 -- Margherita pizza, focaccia with mortadella, and focaccia with spicy schiacciata and smoked provola: seen, tried, and tasted. Each one better than the last 🤤. 1nEtto confirms its quality 🔝

21/09/2025: Well, if you like lukewarm, reheated pizza with minimal seasoning, it's self-service.

15/06/2025: Complimenti a tutto lo staff della terrazza del gusto, dai camerieri al proprietario, entrando si percepisce gentilezza e competenza, cibo ottimo (abbiamo preso portate diverse, tutte consumate con gusto!), ciliegina sulla torta: una fantastica vista mare!

02/06/2025: Attesa infinita per un primo allo scoglio pieno di sabbia filetto di spigola nella media alla piastra ,con contorno di zucchine e melanzane grigliate oneste un piatto di orecchiette al sugo più un antipasto insalata di polpo buona prezzo del tutto 5900 euri. La cosa fastidiosa è stata l attesa in quanto altri clienti arrivati dopo sono stati serviti prima di noi anche avendo ordinato prima . Disorganizzazione nella linea in cucina. Mai più

17/07/2025: Uno dei miglior ristorante del paese, gestione ottima piatti saporiti ed abbondanti staff super disponibile, assolutamente da provare

14/07/2025: Pesce FRESCO E DI OTTIMA QUALITA'. PERSONALE GARBATO. LOCATION GRAZIOSA. Prezzi esagerati soprattutto in relazione alle quantità servite particolare limitate. Offrite come 1/6 dell'antipasto una sola alicetta marinata mi sembra davvero irridente. Così come pagare per due acque da litro 8 euro, salvo errori della cassa!

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

16/08/2025: Be careful, everyone! This is a scam! The food is incredibly expensive. Four chicken wings for 11 euros. Oh my god, are your chicken wings made of gold? I won't go into the details, just savor them yourself. The owner, seeing it was our first time, charged us all the prices on Guagua! Do you really think we don't know that the prices on Guagua are inflated? The dine-in prices are supposed to be much lower, right? And there were no receipts! Not even a piece of paper showing the prices for each dish! They're just taking all the money!
