I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Cosenza

08/12/2025: A resort in the heart of Calabria. Wonderful spa, only complaint: I would have preferred more heat in the massage area. Good restaurant and excellent service, the waiters were really attentive. I stayed in Suite 201, which was large and well-equipped. I would recommend more storage space, and some shelves in the bathroom are always helpful. An ideal place to unwind and recharge. Nearby is Lorica with all its splendor. I recommend visiting Santa Severina, about half an hour from the hotel, a medieval gem definitely worth a visit. I will definitely be back.

08/12/2025: The atmosphere is refined, welcoming, and relaxing, perfect for a break from the daily grind. The real highlight, however, was the spa experience, especially the pool, which offers a moment of pure well-being and relaxation. Everything is designed to make you feel pampered and at ease. A place I absolutely recommend to anyone seeking tranquility and a regenerating experience.

01/11/2025: What a great discovery! Small but very well-kept place, the perfect atmosphere we were looking for last night. Good food, beautiful location, friendly and helpful staff, everything not fancy/pretentious. Food: We started with a DELICIOUS tartare, homemade bread. It continued even better with an incredible cuttlefish with Jerusalem artichokes and gnocchi with caciocavallo fondue and anchovies. We decided to try another dish, the leek with potatoes and porcini mushrooms, which was good (but the others were out of this world). Good wines, the lady even told us about the vineyards of my small Greco di Tufo winery. Cost: €62 for two. We thought the bill was wrong 😅 we expected a higher price overall. Small minus: a bit of a wait for the dishes, but all in all, it's fine given the pleasantness of the place and the overall situation. Well done!

13/10/2025: We made a reservation, and when our flight was delayed, it wasn't a problem. We just had to let them know. We had a delicious meal and were advised on the wine. It all worked out perfectly. Pleasant atmosphere and a helpful team. And on a Saturday evening, you're in a quiet neighborhood, easily reached by car.

17/11/2025: Paid parking in front of the shopping center, the underground ones are free but you have to go all the way around the block

09/11/2025: The parking is terrible, not only do you have to pay, you have to walk your way, if you don't find one nearby you have to be careful with the parking attendants: you have to pay when you get there, you risk a fine, the card doesn't work, if you don't have cash you can leave.

11/12/2025: Casale Vecchia Fattoria welcomes you with a rustic, family-friendly atmosphere, perfect for those who love carefully crafted traditional cuisine. The menu offers authentic dishes, generous portions, and locally sourced ingredients. The flavors are authentic and well-balanced, from the rich starters to the carefully prepared main courses. Friendly service, a relaxed atmosphere, and fair prices complete the experience. An ideal place for an authentic, relaxed dinner.

11/12/2025: Casale Vecchia Fattoria offers a rustic and welcoming atmosphere, perfect for those who appreciate carefully crafted traditional cuisine. The menu features authentic dishes, generous portions, and flavors reminiscent of traditional cuisine. The excellent local first and second courses are prepared with simple yet high-quality ingredients. Friendly service, a family atmosphere, and fair prices make the restaurant a safe bet for an authentic and relaxed dinner.

25/11/2025: Even though Cosenza has become more expensive than central Paris (think of the situation), Nettuno pizzeria remains a paragon of honesty in the Cosenza area. We want more Nettuno, less posh places.

14/09/2025: Couple's dinner, we waited about 20 minutes to receive a menu, and another 40 minutes to order, excellent food and friendly staff but the organization absolutely needs to be reviewed, because you can't wait about 1 hour and 20 minutes from arrival to the first bite.

29/11/2025: Excellent pizza, very kind, precise and punctual even for takeout. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

17/11/2025: Excellent quality food. From appetizers to dessert. We'll be back. ⬆️

06/09/2025: Excellent pizza, they really know how to make it, try it and believe it.

22/08/2025: Located near the aqueduct, the restaurant enjoys a panoramic view. It's particularly beautiful outside, but there are also indoor seating. Excellent pizza and delicious dishes. Good service and a friendly atmosphere.

25/07/2025: Everything was delicious, from the courtesy and attentiveness of the staff to the taste of the excellent quality food, cooked with skill and a pinch of imagination that never hurts.

03/04/2025: On a Thursday evening in early April, the gem of Rende may be very quiet. The cuisine and service at this traditional restaurant are nevertheless top-notch. We received very good quality food, from the antipasto to the dessert. It was a wonderful evening.

18/11/2025: Located on one of Paola's main streets, it offers outdoor dining, and is very quiet in the evening. The owner is a very friendly and helpful person; he takes care of selecting the ingredients, which are truly top-notch. The sandwiches are truly delicious! 💯

28/08/2025: It's with regret that I can't leave more than one review, for the wine selection, the sandwiches, the fried foods, and the food. Everything is WONDERFUL. Not to mention the hospitality and kindness of the owner and his family, wonderful people with whom it's a real pleasure to chat. Worthy of note: spaghetti with clams, fried calamari and shrimp, and the breaded fetta sandwich—handmade, not the industrial junk they dish out at other places. I'm just sorry that my work stint in Paola will soon take me away from here, because it would have been my favorite place.

01/09/2025: Excellent ice cream and a simply delicious croissant!

30/08/2025: Very friendly owners, top service, my kids love going there and so do I.

14/12/2025: I often go to this place, and am more and more satisfied each time. The owners and waiters are very kind, friendly and always available. The sandwiches and snacks are super good. Highly recommended.

06/12/2025: Amazing sandwiches, unparalleled meat flavor, fair prices.

26/11/2025: Nice place with seaview. Seafood menu, with local products, and reasonable price. Good selection of wine. Friendly service. During the season, sure very popular and busy place.

01/11/2025: Lunch was all about excellent seafood. I recommend trying the cold and hot seafood appetizer, "Nausicaa Salad," and other dishes like Nausicaa Ravioli. The service is friendly. The beachfront setting, both day and night, is very pleasant, clean, and tastefully decorated. I can only recommend it!

30/11/2025: There is no menu, so you don't know how much you'll spend, you have to trust the owner's advice. We took 2 appetizers, with portions for 1 person. I was struck by a small salmon tartare that we had to share between two. We also took 2 first courses, I had seafood where there were more shells than pasta. A bottle of water was unopened but paid for. The wine arrived after the appetizer following 2 reminders from us. The waiters didn't even remember our courses, nor the wine chosen. The price was absolutely exorbitant compared to what we ate and the service received. It's a shame, because the raw materials were good, cooked quite well.

26/10/2025: The food is really good. Fresh fish, fast service, and a lovely place with a top-notch wine cellar.

21/09/2025: The quality of the fish is excellent. The service is professional, and the location is beautiful. A good selection of dishes, 4/5 of each type, without those endlessly long tourist menus. Prices are in line with seaside seafood restaurants. Highly recommended... And then, in mid-September, with the beach half-empty and the sea in front... peace of mind.

11/09/2025: Amazing experience on the beach of Scalea. Great food supporting by pleasant service and surrounded by relaxing atmosphere. We are looking forward to returning soon...

20/08/2025: We had a great lunch, the staff were very welcoming and the food was delicious, especially the foccacia and the parmegiana di melanzane.
