I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Vibo valentia

20/11/2025: Located right in the heart of Tropea's bustling old town, the restaurant's terrace is surprisingly peaceful. The menu focuses on fish, and we enjoyed a delicious sea bream baked in a salt crust. Our starter included the region's famous "Cipolla Rossa di Tropea" onions, prepared in three different varieties. The service was attentive and courteous.

01/11/2025: The service is nice and friendly...but the food is one of the worst I had in Italy... Definitely I will not come back

31/03/2026: Stunning pasta dishes! My husband is still raving about how wonderful the Strangozzi al profumo di mare (fresh spaghetti with mixed seafood) was - incredibly fresh pasta and a great range of seafood in a delicious sauce. Large portions and served with bread (in a paper bag). I had the linguine with prawns and pistachio which was tasty. Local wine was easy drinking.

27/03/2026: Delicious pizza and one of the cheapest in Tropea. Highly recommended! Our top pick is the A Vampata pizza from N'duja—delicious.

07/10/2025: I went with my wife and son in September for dinner in the ancient cave. The seafood appetizer smelled bad and tasted nothing like seafood. The octopus was transparent and smelled bad—you couldn't tell it was octopus carpaccio; it was literally transparent, like tissue paper. The rest was anything but anything that reminded you of the sea. Everything was frozen and poorly treated. Parmigiana was the sore point!! It wasn't parmigiana, but a mixture of boiled eggs drowned in tomato sauce. I don't think they even know what eggplant parmigiana is; there were only boiled eggs. I wouldn't go back even if they paid me; it was a TERRIBLE experience that's hard to undo. They have no idea what Italian or Calabrian cuisine is. What a shame! These people were improvised and had never worked in a kitchen!

28/09/2025: Incredibly delicious traditional cuisine❤️

04/04/2026: Excellent food. Gluten free choice of pasta and pizza. All of them very tasty.

02/04/2026: Great local food. We had fileja with Tropean Onions and it was great. Risotto marinara also highly recommended. Pizzas taste great also. Highly recommended!

17/11/2025: Excellent quality product and well designed

25/10/2025: At lunchtime, we deliberately drove off the road to this restaurant for the pizza that was advertised. The service was unfriendly and completely uninterested in communicating in any language (English, German, Spanish) other than the local one. Using sign language and a dictionary on his smartphone, the waiter explained that pizza was only available in the evenings. We decided to stay anyway, and that was a mistake. One of the dishes we ordered – Tagliolini al ragu (ragu is the name of a meat sauce made with slowly simmered meats, usually beef and pork) – was pasta with leftover sausages and hot dogs. The food was terrible, and the service was rude. We definitely recommend avoiding this place.

29/03/2026: Returned from a motorcycle tour in Tuscany, booked quickly. Very professional and friendly reception. Excellent hotel close to the center and on the beach. Private parking. Recommended 🔝🔝🔝

27/03/2026: An excellent stay, far exceeding expectations. The rooms were renovated, clean, and, given the cold weather of March 2026, very warm. The staff was friendly, but especially the breakfast. A wide variety of cakes, all different and very fresh, with special attention to gluten-free and lactose-free options. And the coffee, not the usual ground coffee, but pods and a coffee machine.

20/03/2026: Extremely satisfied with this dining experience. Voglia di Mare offers a variety of fresh fish dishes. Everything was excellent: raw fish, pasta dishes, and mixed fried fish. I highly recommend it to anyone in the area who wants to eat fresh raw and/or well-cooked fish. The staff is friendly and helpful. We'll definitely be back!

06/02/2026: Exceptional cuisine, I would say 6 stars

19/12/2025: We often dined at this family-run restaurant in August 2025. Simple yet authentic cuisine; the freshest fish, always caught by the owner—the octopus with potatoes is a must-try: it melts in your mouth! The view is breathtaking, overlooking the sea, with the colors of the sunset making it all the more evocative. The staff is incredibly kind: Caterina is always available and attentive. Thank you for everything! We hope to return!

31/08/2025: Amazing place, friendly staff, beautiful view. And.. delicious shrimps. Very clean area. Beach IS few Stairs under the bar.

18/03/2026: You can eat very well and cheaply; the staff is very friendly.

14/10/2025: Good food at good prices. Friendly service; we've been there twice. I recommend asking about the pistachio cheesecake—the best dessert we had during our stay in Calabria.

09/02/2026: A beautiful place to have an aperitif or enjoy an excellent truffle.

02/02/2026: Great ice cream for a good price, they also had good looking desserts that made our mouths water. The staff was nice and understood English. They also offer dairy free ice cream.

13/03/2026: Last week I had the pleasure of dining at this Calabrian restaurant, and the experience was truly excellent. As soon as you enter, you immediately sense a warm and welcoming atmosphere: a well-kept, family-friendly place brimming with that authentic Calabrian soul that makes you feel almost at home. The atmosphere is pleasant and relaxing, perfect for enjoying a leisurely dinner. The cuisine is the restaurant's true strength. The dishes are prepared with traditional Calabrian ingredients, rich in flavor and beautifully presented. You can taste the quality of the ingredients and the respect for local recipes. Each course exudes authenticity and passion for local cuisine. Another very positive aspect is the quality-price ratio: generous portions, authentic dishes, and truly excellent prices. In short, a restaurant I absolutely recommend to anyone who wants to discover or rediscover the true flavors of Calabria in a welcoming environment. I will definitely be back!

05/03/2026: Trattoria run the old fashioned way. Good food at a reasonable price and served with a smile. We went twice, and if we had stayed longer, we would have gone every day. Thank you.

16/09/2025: Good food. We didn't have everything left.

15/09/2025: Easy-to-reach beach, with covered parking and all the necessary amenities, plus excellent gourmet sandwiches.

08/11/2025: Very good, we were very satisfied.

07/11/2025: If you're looking for an authentic gastronomic experience in the heart of Tropea, La Pergola is a must-see. The restaurant is welcoming and meticulously curated, with a pleasant atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. The staff is extremely friendly and attentive, always ready to recommend the best dishes and ensure impeccable service. Special thanks to Domenico, whose professionalism, kindness, and charm make every dinner even more enjoyable and memorable. The cuisine is a true journey through Calabrian flavors: the freshest ingredients, dishes crafted with attention to detail, and generous portions. Don't miss the spaghetti with Tropea red onion, the fish of the day cooked simply yet perfectly, and the homemade desserts, which round out the meal in style. The wine list is also excellent, featuring tastefully selected local labels. In short, La Pergola in Tropea is a restaurant that combines quality, authenticity, and hospitality. A place where you eat well, feel good, and want to return. Highly recommended for both a romantic dinner and an evening with friends. 🌿🍷

20/10/2025: We came for lunch, and I must say the girl who served us was very kind and friendly, as well as giving great advice. You absolutely have to try the first course: spaghetti with clams and pesto! Truly delicious!! 😍 Or the authentic Roman carbonara! ❤️

11/10/2025: Exceptional pizza, light dough and excellent quality ingredients, fast and very friendly service.

24/08/2025: If you want to be pampered, this is the place to be. Pleasant atmosphere, excellent cuisine, top-notch service, both competent and discreet. Balanced quality/price ratio. We will definitely be back.

23/08/2025: Delicious food, impeccable service, and plenty of traditional stories. Highly recommended.
