I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Calabria

31/05/2026: From the moment you enter, you immediately realize it's a pleasant and welcoming place. The entire staff is extremely friendly and helpful, ready to accommodate their guests' needs. The food is truly exceptional: top-quality local produce, traditional dishes prepared with local ingredients, and truly delicious dishes. It's hard to ask for more; it's definitely one of the best in the entire area. Highly recommended.

16/05/2026: high prices, terrible food, even the pizza was too salty, poor quality ingredients, I spent the night in the toilet

05/05/2026: The building is quite dated, and the bathrooms are quite run-down. For one night, you can go and have dinner, which wasn't bad. The view of the sea and the beach right below is good.

22/04/2026: The interior is still dated. The staff, however, is very polite. The restaurant's prices are low compared to other nearby places. The dishes are rich and tasty.

18/03/2026: Very nice, excellent location, attentive staff.. I went in for breakfast

29/12/2025: Spectacular panettone...super pastries. What can I say, a must try!

20/05/2026: I wanted to compliment the entire staff on the quality of their service and pizza. Truly excellent, from the welcome to the dessert. Congratulations! Very kind.

18/05/2026: A truly comfortable atmosphere and friendly, knowledgeable staff! We stopped here for a quick lunch break after classes at my university, and this is already the second time I've brought my girls, who come from various parts of Calabria. The food is excellent, and the pizza is simply delicious. The girls raved about the experience! It will definitely become a regular stop for our future academic breaks. We'll be back as soon as we can! Maria Miliè Beauty & Academy

07/09/2025: The pizza was good, and the terrace was beautiful for outdoor dining. The staff was friendly and attentive to customer requests. My only complaint was that the place was packed, so service wasn't the fastest, but that's okay. It was understandable and didn't cause any inconvenience. They're great, and I highly recommend them.

16/02/2026: Bontà, cordialità e tanta professionalità. Grazie al pizzaiolo abbiamo assaporato il vero gusto della pizza.

25/01/2026: The dough is of a certain quality, but its quality is decreasing

11/05/2026: The best people. I miss all too much. I hope one day will be see again 🙏

20/04/2026: Everything was perfect, except the balsamic vinegar was missing and the condiments were served at the table with unsuitable oil cruets.

22/08/2025: I ate a pizza which I liked, friendly staff, nice location, ugly toilet

07/08/2025: We had a great time. Excellent pasta and pizza, just steps from the historic center of San Giovanni in Fiore. Friendly staff. Highly recommended.

23/04/2026: Perfect and highly recommended. And excellent Paulaner beers too.

01/02/2026: It's a small place, but it feels like a family restaurant. Excellent service, as are the pizzas. Curious about the sandwiches at the next table, I asked what they were like and was told they were top-notch. I'll try them next time. The prices are also excellent. Congratulations!

03/03/2026: Informal place, with typical products. The appetizer was quite good, with typical products. The risotto and escalope (pork) were less good.

06/12/2025: Very friendly and the dishes, besides being excellent, are really plentiful, especially the starters... Recommended

08/03/2026: We stayed for a weekend and had a great time 👍

14/02/2026: A family-run restaurant that welcomes you warmly and always offers a small fritter while you wait for your order. Very low prices, but high-quality products. Since 2026, the menu has had new specialty pizzas that I highly recommend trying. I've dined here about 20 times, and each time, the positive story repeats itself...

19/01/2026: Emilio, the owner, was immediately available and friendly as soon as he saw us come in. He let us choose a table, and we took advantage of the opportunity to get one for six, but there were only two of us; it wasn't as crowded as the last time we came, so we were comfortable. Valentina, smiling and attentive, immediately offered us a taste of the IMPACCHIUSE potatoes, a local specialty. If I have to point out a flaw, I can only complain about the speed of service. I had a lamb tagliata on a red-hot griddle, which I had already had the first time; I remembered it as fantastic, and it once again confirmed Vernante's unique 450-day tradition of goodness. My other half had a Margherita with porcini mushrooms, exceptional; for us Neapolitans, it was a real surprise. They were great, friendly, and very fast. Our favorite place in Rende. In the summer, being outside will be even more pleasant. I forgot, they also offered us a Nutella donut 😋😋😋😋😋 at the end. I forgot to bring a portion of zucchini flower fritters upon arrival, just to please 💯 Cristiano

13/09/2025: Delicious pizza, light and crispy at the same time, nothing like those "rubbery" pizzas that they call "Neapolitan" and then rise in your stomach and you digest them the next afternoon!! The food is also good. Courtesy and kindness. If you're looking for a quiet place to eat, this is the right place.

15/06/2025: My boyfriend and I have been frequenting this restaurant often for a long time. The atmosphere is quiet, there are always few people and I don't mind, the owners are very kind and helpful. However, the overall experience did not fully satisfy us. Lately it has not been pleasant anymore. For a place setting with a paper placemat, €4 seems a bit excessive to me. The portions were rather small compared to the asking price, which at the end of the meal turned out to be quite high in relation to what we actually ate. Unfortunately, the quality-price ratio did not live up to expectations. A shame, because with a few more adjustments on the quantity and cost, the experience could have been decidedly better.

06/05/2026: The atmosphere is beautiful and refined, and the terrace is definitely worth the trip! Excellent food, from the peppered mussels to the seafood risotto to the penne al pomodoro for the kids! Everything! But the truly delicious dish was the fried calamari, wonderful! We'll definitely be back! 😊
