I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Calabria

07/07/2026: Lovely atmosphere, but the Tagliata di Manzo was unfortunately not good today. We ate at Ristorante Le Macine today. Unfortunately, we were not at all satisfied with the food this time. We really didn't like the Tagliata di Manzo. The meat was poorly prepared and a disappointment in terms of taste. It's a shame, because the restaurant actually has a lot of potential. We hope that the kitchen will deliver its usual quality next time. We also had to order the espresso four times to get it.

26/06/2026: Excellent restaurant in a quiet area just outside the center of Rossano, where you can park right in front. A well-kept and spacious atmosphere where the food takes center stage. Definitely recommended if you're passing through the area.

02/07/2026: Great food, nice atmosphere and excellent service

02/07/2026: This osteria is a slice of heaven. I found prompt and attentive service, an excellent local wine list with fair markups, and dishes created with love and using excellent ingredients. What an evening! It's a shame I can't find it nearby! A heartfelt thanks to the owner, Francesca, who is always available and attentive.

04/07/2026: Fast service, good food, and we didn't have to wait long; the ambiance was lovely. The interior is truly beautiful.

04/07/2026: I've been going to this place for years, and it will always be my favorite. They've also completely renovated the place, making it even more beautiful. As for the dishes, from appetizers to desserts, and even the pizza, they're all superb! Congratulations!

05/07/2026: Typical meat products of excellent quality, the place is not very large but small and welcoming, reservations are recommended, abundant dishes and fair prices.

30/06/2026: Spectacular! Excellent meat and very friendly staff. The place is small, so reservations are required. If we return to Villa San Giovanni, we'll definitely be back.

04/07/2026: Traveling from Reggio Calabria to Locri, in the first days of July, and not finding any restaurant open for lunch, we happened upon "All' antica ricetta", a welcome with a big smile, a traditional place that makes you feel all the warmth of Calabria, dishes from truly ancient recipes, exquisite rabbit, spaghetti with seafood that leaves you speechless, very fresh vegetables, what can I say, highly recommended, thank you for your welcome🤗

23/06/2026: What a wonderful time we had at this restaurant! We ate delicious Calabrian food, with simple, generous, and warm flavors. The staff was very friendly, and I'm proud to have introduced my friends to this welcoming, delicious, and authentic place. Thank you for your hospitality!

17/04/2026: Simply superb. Thank you for the delicious food and the wine, which was excellent. The service was truly loving and attentive. Thank you so much, we'd love to come again.

10/02/2026: They opened just for us on a day they were closed. Delicious food and very kind people, not only in a beautiful place in Calabria ❤️ but also very open to vegan and vegetarian options.

23/02/2026: Everything was exceptional, delicious food. Beautiful location, compliments for the professionalism and quality of the dishes. Well-served and very tasty. Many thanks to Chef Danila. Congratulations to the waitress and to Mrs. Caterina. Thank you ❤

15/02/2026: Surrounded by greenery and featuring a beautiful open-air pool, we chose Tenuta Gironda for a family Sunday lunch, and it was the perfect choice. The food was delicious, and the staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly. We felt truly pampered! We'll definitely be back.

09/06/2026: Very good food, beautiful location

04/06/2026: My wife and I went for dinner two nights ago on the recommendation of our host (Mr. Antonio), and we were not disappointed at all. The service was extremely kind and courteous, the menu included a good selection of traditional dishes, and what we tried was delicious! The portions were just right (not small at all), and the final bill was in line with local standards for the time of year. Important note: the restaurant has a decent selection of local wines and also offers a choice of glass, ideal if you can't finish the entire bottle. Recommended!

14/06/2026: Invited by relatives to taste typical Calabrian cuisine. Splendids sersta. Generous portions (even too much).

05/06/2026: I'd heard good things about this place and went with my family for lunch on a weekday just to avoid the crowds. Even though the place was partially full, it was a real hubbub; we couldn't even talk to each other. The appetizers were greasy and tasteless, the entrees were sticky and left whole, and the bill was steep. The only redeeming factor was the very friendly staff.

07/04/2026: Kindness, availability, hospitality and quality of the dishes Super.

03/04/2026: Excellent food, excellent service!!! A great experience I would repeat a thousand times!

08/05/2026: A wonderful discovery of fresh, local produce and very pleasant service. Generous and delicious portions.

19/04/2026: Great restaurant, tasty food, both pizza and grilled shrimp, I recommend it

28/04/2026: Great place, number one, I don't recommend it... I HIGHLY recommend it.

27/04/2026: It is a must experience while in the Scalea area.

22/06/2026: We were warmly welcomed, the service was quick and professional, and the terrace was enchanting... The food was delicious and the cooking impeccable.

04/06/2026: Excellent seafood! Recommended!

01/06/2026: We dined at Paradise and the experience was truly excellent in every way. The quality of the food was excellent, with carefully crafted dishes and authentic flavors that fully satisfied us. Special praise goes to all the dining room staff, always professional, friendly, and attentive to our needs. A special thanks to Ilenia, who stood out for her expertise and helpfulness. She accompanied us throughout dinner, passionately and expertly illustrating the local wines and recommending the best pairings. Her attention didn't stop there: after dinner, she was extremely patient in introducing us to various local spirits, letting us explore and taste them without rushing, even helping us choose which ones to purchase. Experiences like this truly make a difference. We will definitely return and highly recommend Paradise to anyone looking for an evening dedicated to good food, hospitality, and the valorization of local products.

26/05/2026: Beautiful space with good food. Surprisingly quiet given the large open space which was great for conversations

03/05/2026: Delicious food. Very fresh fish and seafood! The staff speaks English, which is not uncommon in Calabria. We'll definitely be back.

01/03/2026: There's definitely room for improvement. Slow, though always courteous, service. Prices for the fish dishes are average. Vegan versions are available. Personally, though, I'd lower the price. I paid €15 for a plate of fettuccine with zucchini, the same price as the equivalent fish dish. Another thing to work on: the portions. A couple of friends shared a first course. The two "small portions" were as big as my entire plate...which I paid for in full. The appetizer platter while waiting for the first course was very welcome. The atmosphere was informal but very pleasant and relaxing, with the lights set among the olive trees (August 2024).
