I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Cosenza

18/05/2025: At Trattoria Zio Pierino, hospitality is at home: we arrived late, around 3:00 pm, but they welcomed us with a smile and a phrase that says it all about their spirit: “We certainly won’t let you starve!” And so it was: from that moment on, a real journey into the authentic flavors of Calabrian tradition began. The appetizers were one marvel after another: fragrant frittatine, tasty black tripe, delicate and fragrant elderberry fritters, and of course the legendary pepi cruschi, crunchy and irresistible. Each dish seemed to tell a story, that of home cooking made with love and genuine ingredients. Zio Pierino is not just a trattoria, it is a culinary experience that makes you feel at home, pampered and full (pleasantly full!). Highly recommended for those who want to savor true Calabrian cuisine with the warmth of old-fashioned hospitality.

12/05/2025: Ho pranzato ieri insieme ad un numeroso gruppo di amici in questa trattoria, molto caratteristica, ordinata e pulita, venendo accolti con particolare gentilezza ed il sorriso sia dal titolare che dalle sue figlie, mostratisi da subito molto ospitali, attenti e pronti a qualsiasi esigenza della clientela. I piatti, serviti con prodotti tipici del luogo, sono di ottima qualità e molto particolari anche per quanto riguarda la loro preparazione e presentazione. Ci siamo trovati tutti molto bene sia per l'ospitalità e sia per l'ottimo rapporto qualità - prezzo. Consigliatissimo, anche per i palati più esigenti.

28/04/2025: We spent 2 days in the town of Altomonte for the first time, as soon as we arrived we looked for a restaurant because it was lunch time and luck took us to the S.Francesco tavern. A very characteristic place with home cooking: fresh food, cooked with love by Massimo, the chef, very tasty with personalized recipes. Very kind staff. The owner is very good, very communicative, on the 2nd day we returned with a couple of American friends. Fish lunch exceptional. Congratulations to all the staff of the S.Francesco tavern.

25/04/2025: Locale piccolo ma accogliente e ben curato , ottima la cucina , delicata e intensa nei sapori e nelle materie prime scelte, gentilissimo il cameriere.. l’oste è una forza della natura! Consigliatisimo

31/05/2025: Calypso restaurant in Belvedere Marittimo is a real experience! I was invited to dinner with my boss's family and the experience was incredible. The raw and fried fish appetizers were delicious and very fresh. The highlight was my “pasta con vongole”, which I asked for with the clams on the side. Even though it was a complicated request, the staff responded with excellence. The service was attentive and the atmosphere welcoming. I recommend it to everyone who visits Belvedere Marittimo.

29/05/2025: After spoiled restaurant visits on the East Coast, tonight was rather disappointing. At the beginning, we were rushed to order, and the order of dishes was not followed. After the bill was handed over, no one paid any attention to us. We left the amount and weren't even greeted as we left!

01/06/2025: 5 star location 4 star food 5 star dining room staff (Fabio and Guido, 2 exemplary waiters) Overall a wonderful experience. The service is impeccable, thanks to the two waiters mentioned.

01/06/2025: Great location. Maybe the room is too big. Great for receptions and weddings. Maybe not very suitable for intimacy

02/06/2025: We came here on a recommendation. The place is beautiful. Perhaps even more beautiful during the day. We had 7 appetizers, nothing special. Only 1 first course of tagliatelle with mushrooms. Very good, homemade pasta. 8 second courses of fillet of meat. Excellent meat. Excellent side dishes. Genuine. Two bottles of wine and 2 desserts. Good. I listed the courses to make the bill that doesn't add up emerge €364 🤔

01/06/2025: Mass food., pre-cooked is ready in 2 minutes served cold is bland....from deco' to belvedere you eat much better. Too bad that the owner himself does not even care about the criticism made at the time, because money prevails over him. €22 4 pieces of cold and hard meat with unwashed rocket. Kind of owner remembers the second course was not the same but a 300g slice of veal served in 3 slices of 150g in total. Continue with the pre-cooked in 3 minutes.

08/06/2025: Decepcionado con la comida: el plato de cordero era solo trozos masticables de carne sin salsa echado en un plato, la pasta con garbanzos estaba bien, pero simple, la carne de res era más o menos sabrosa. Gran vino de rosa

03/06/2025: Excellent restaurant with traditional dishes, abundant, very good service, and good prices. They welcomed us at a time when everything was closed. Highly recommended.

17/05/2025: This is an old castle in a small town. It's great to visit it when you pass by.

14/05/2025: Meals are only available from 12:30

01/06/2025: Very high quality, generous portions, excellent cooking, friendly staff. Highly recommended

04/05/2025: An enchanting place, thanks go to Adele for her kindness and familiarity, I don't think I've ever had so much fun on holiday, I met such nice people that I can't wait for December to arrive soon to return!!!

04/04/2025: Personale gentile. Servizio rapido, nonostante l'affollamento della serata. Piatti, bicchieri e posate puliti. Cibo buono e di buona qualità. Non conoscevo questa pizzeria che si è rivelata una gradevole sorpresa che terrò presente anche per il futuro.

24/03/2025: Posto molto bello, molto affollato

02/05/2025: Top quality products and excellent service just a little too long waiting time between one course and another

22/04/2025: Da Gennaro is a true gem for fish lovers. The freshness of the catch is the protagonist in every dish, from the mixed grill to the seafood first courses, cooked with care and respect for the Mediterranean tradition. The place is welcoming, with a family atmosphere and friendly service that immediately makes you feel at home. Ideal for a relaxing dinner or a tasty seafood lunch. Don't miss their light and crunchy frying, simply delicious.

25/05/2025: dalle recensioni che avevamo letto di sicuro nn ci aspettavamo di mangiare male, ma ha superato le aspettative! accoglienza cordiale, simpatica del titolare credo , ci siamo fatti guidare e consigliare, al meglio! inoltre tra i pochi posti a nn chiedere la recensione, ma nn puoi nin farla per il servizio ricevuto!!! ritorneremo !!!

14/05/2025: Entramos en Hipocampo fuera de la calle sin saber qué esperar. Primero pedí una cerveza. Era de una cervecería local y posiblemente la mejor cerveza que he probado. Como no hablamos italiano el dueño (supongo) recomendó algunos platos y seguimos sus recomendaciones. Qué experiencia maravillosa. Absolutamente increíble comida. . . . la presentación, la preparación y la calidad y frescura de la comida era de primera clase. El propietario era un tipo amable, sonriente, impecablemente educado. Qué noche tan encantadora. Lo mejor hasta ahora en nuestro viaje por Calabria.

04/06/2025: Ogni volta che arrivo a San Nicola Arcella sia per le vacanze o per un fine settimana faccio tappa sempre al ristorante San Giorgio, per pranzare, cenare o solo per una pizza. Comunque consiglio questo ristorante per il cibo, la disponibilità del personale e la possibilità di gustare i piatti in una grande sala o in terrazza.

17/05/2025: We stumbled upon this restaurant while in Scalea. It was so good we went for lunch and dinner in the same day! Roberto our waiter was fantastic; attentive and informative. The food was top notch don’t pass this by place

11/05/2025: I always return with pleasure to places where the food is good and where hospitality, combined with the extreme education and professionalism of all the staff, becomes a primary element. Well, Festopoli has always maintained the same positive characteristics that have characterized this place since its inception. The raw materials used for the preparation of the dishes are of the highest quality, as is the case for the wines and any other drink that you want to associate with food. Children can finally play and enjoy a myriad of delicacies. In the end everything is true jubilation.

10/05/2025: I've been sitting since 8.52pm and nothing has arrived yet it's 10.21pm is it possible???? I saw you again and never again

19/05/2025: The waiters welcomed us with kindness and courtesy even though I asked to have lunch at 2:45 pm, despite the inappropriate time we felt truly welcomed. The environment is super clean and the meals were nothing short of exceptional! We will definitely return to the bishop's inn.

19/05/2025: The Il Vescovo Rosso inn is an excellent choice for those who want to taste typical Calabrian dishes in a welcoming and familiar environment. The quality of the food, combined with attentive service and a good quality/price ratio, make it a point of reference for residents and visitors of Cosenza. I recommend it!

25/04/2025: 5 stelle! Siamo stati in questa trattoria, cercata su Google, per il pranzo di pasquetta e siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti del pranzo e del servizio. L'ambiente piccolo ed accogliente ci ha fatto sentire a casa, così come l'ottimo cibo mangiato! Francesco, il titolare, ci ha accolti come persone di famiglia. Lo consigliamo! Torneremo sicuramente... Marco ed Antonella 😀

25/04/2025: Trattoria with simple and excellent food! Super good cured meats, of excellent quality as well as the rest. The owner is a kind and very helpful person.
