I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Calabria

12/01/2026: Everything was perfect, the staff and owner were very welcoming. It felt like home! Excellent food, highly recommended.

11/01/2026: Unfortunately, my expectations were disappointed. A €13.00 platter with four slices of cured meats; fried prawns and calamai for €20 for a total of six pieces, three prawns and two rounds... I don't recommend it.

31/01/2026: DA MIMMO? More like, DIMMI: how can one of the classic restaurants of Calabria fail to cook pasta al dente? The obscene price gives false hope expectations of a pleasant eating experience. And the atmosphere? Sterile and without character. Italy's migration problems would be fixed if the foreigners were made to eat here even for free - the UN would call their fleeing a humanitarian crisis and drag whoever was in charge of the portion sizes before the Hague. The waiting staff were competent and well-mannered. I wish them the future happiness of serving rather than extorting the customer, whether it be in fine dining, catering or 5 euro pizza.

13/01/2026: A beautiful seaside location, spectacular appetizers and pizza. Service is a bit slapdash compared to the restaurant's appearance (waiters with clipboards and a hideous serving trolley), but still fast.

29/10/2025: I don't often write restaurant reviews, but we had the best meal of our holiday here – almost fine dining, and at very reasonable prices. The historic building is truly a gem among Scilla's already beautiful architecture, and dining on the airy terrace overlooking the sea is particularly lovely. But what really made the evening special was the incredibly warm and welcoming sommelier, who guided us through the evening with charm and humor and clearly knows his stuff – even if you only order a single wine by the glass! Thank you for a wonderful last evening in Calabria. We'll be back!

24/10/2025: On our walk through the beautiful Chianalea neighborhood, we discovered this restaurant. It can be a bit annoying to climb a long staircase to reach the wonderful terrace overlooking the sea, but the effort is worth it because the views from there are magnificent. The entire restaurant is tastefully decorated. This carefully curated setting helped us achieve a very high level of gastronomic pleasure. We found the swordfish steaks to be very well seasoned and full of flavor. The tomato and burrata salad was a perfect accompaniment. The tomatoes tasted real, which is hard to find. Pizzo's truffle was perfectly cooked: we thought it was delicious. We paired the meal with a very smooth Greco Calabrian white wine. Both the maitre d' and the rest of the staff were impeccable in their work.

16/01/2026: Excellent venue, with a swimming pool and private beach, it is a purely summer venue, even if in winter there are often many evening events, one of the most beautiful venues in Reggio Calabria

15/10/2025: Kalura restaurant, located in Reggio Calabria, is a place that successfully combines quality cuisine with a welcoming and refined atmosphere. The enchanting location boasts a panoramic sea view that makes every meal a unique experience, especially on summer evenings. Kalura stands out for its elegant and refined atmosphere. The modern and well-appointed interiors convey a sense of warmth and hospitality. The sea view, visible from most tables, further enhances the dining experience, making every dinner a memorable one. The menu offers a variety of dishes that celebrate Calabrian culinary tradition, with a focus on fresh fish and local ingredients. Each dish is carefully prepared, showcasing authentic flavors and sophisticated recipes. Seafood specialties, such as spaghetti with clams and mixed grill, are particularly popular. Vegetarians will find tasty and creative options, demonstrating the restaurant's versatility. Service is one of Kalura's strengths. The staff is attentive and professional, always ready to recommend dishes and wine pairings. The friendly waiters help create a pleasant and relaxing atmosphere, perfect for a romantic dinner or a family evening. Prices are competitive, considering the quality of the food and service. You can choose from a variety of dishes at a reasonable price, making the restaurant accessible even for those on a budget.

16/11/2025: Good quality, nice place, but certainly not the best, prices a little high, but the quality is there.

14/11/2025: An evening spent with four friends, all of whom shared the same idea: we ordered the huge house appetizer, which filled us up perfectly. I must say, the selection was excellent, with many dishes and delicious seafood, and a quiet, intimate atmosphere.

22/10/2025: Very tasty pizza and very good service 😃

19/10/2025: Great night out. Highly recommended for food and drinks. Wonderful staff.

20/09/2025: We had dinner this evening and, unfortunately, the experience didn't live up to expectations. The food was average, nothing to justify the prices, which were truly excessive for what was offered. But what most impacted the overall rating was the service: in particular, a waiter with a goatee was arrogant and presumptuous, with an unprofessional and unwelcoming attitude. It's a shame, because the place has potential, but between the unmemorable food quality, the exorbitant prices, and such unpleasant service, I don't think we'll be back.

18/09/2025: With a breathtaking view, friendly and helpful staff, and excellent food, it rightly has its prices. But when you eat well and feel good, it's money well spent.

22/08/2025: On our way back from Paola, we decided to try this restaurant in the ancient village of Belmonte. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. We took the chef up on a suggestion, and he prepared an excellent pacchero with amberjack. The price was perhaps a little steep...but you pay for quality food.

18/08/2025: I dined at Taverna Intru u Vicu with a group of friends. Let me start by saying that the location is stunning: both the terrace and the alleyway will surely provide guests with an unforgettable experience. The service was kind and friendly, without being intrusive, and the owner and waiter made us feel at home. The house wine, served during dinner, was also excellent. As for the menu, the owner's innovation was much appreciated. No dish was banal, and the flavors were well-balanced. The tuna on tomato steak and the pickled tuna (€16-18) are definitely worth trying as appetizers. I personally ordered the mixed fried fish (€22), which was good, fresh, and crispy, but perhaps a bit small for a main course. In conclusion, absolutely recommended for those looking for an unconventional dinner in an excellent location. For eight of us, with four appetizers, eight courses, wine, drinks, and two shared desserts, we spent about €50 each.

12/10/2025: Very friendly and accommodating staff. The entire stay was very pleasant and enjoyable. Thank you!

02/10/2025: What can I say? We had a simply wonderful weekend! Wellness program, back and neck massage, excellent dinner, overnight stay, and breakfast. Every time we return, it never disappoints, especially the food... top notch!

31/01/2026: If you like meat only, tasty grilled meats plate, really generous, good luck to finish it all.

20/01/2026: A fantastic surprise. Professional and very friendly service. The appetizers were made with top-notch local products and the meat was very good.

17/01/2026: Lunch with friends, everything was very good. Tasty and beautifully presented dishes, friendly service. Pleasant experience.

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! 💯

27/01/2026: This playground is ideal for children's birthday parties with large numbers of guests of varying ages. It offers decent food and helpful staff. Recommended for inflatables enthusiasts.

11/01/2026: I used to go there when I was little

12/10/2025: We went there twice during our vacation. Great pasta, pizza, and fried seafood at a great price. This is exactly the kind of food you want. Highly recommended.

10/10/2025: Delicious pizza with the freshest ingredients! Very friendly staff. Highly recommended! Congratulations!

05/02/2026: Great place, Despite the language barrier, the staff rose to the occasion. The steak was excellent, and the help with choosing the wine was also excellent. I highly recommend it 🥰❤️

10/01/2026: We happened upon it by chance and found a truly unique place, serving exceptional meat. I felt like I was enjoying eating in our beautiful Italy.

20/10/2025: A Sunday family experience. Agriturismo Le Muraglie (Czech Republic) in the mountains. We ate divinely, to say the least. Excellent quality throughout. We'll definitely be back, and I highly recommend it because it's truly worth it. Located in a peaceful and quiet spot. The place is perfect for my Sundays...call to book. We're already planning another Sunday there.

09/09/2025: Genuine food with typical dishes and friendly staff
