I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Calabria

14/10/2025: Everything was excellent, from the owners, who are lovely people, to the staff, congratulations.

05/10/2025: I gave it 2 stars only because they've raised their prices excessively... 12.50 for a salad... I've been going there for over a decade...

24/07/2025: The food is truly delicious, and everything is taken care of down to the smallest detail. The owners are incredibly kind, as is the staff. The photos will speak for themselves...

28/06/2025: Well prepared appetizers, well cooked pizza with quality ingredients, excellent prices

04/10/2025: Very friendly and attentive waiters with good advice on wine (grandpa) we went there twice the pizzas and pasta were very good

21/09/2025: Got ignored for 20 mins by waiters and left - no one took our order

23/08/2025: We had dinner in 7 waiting time almost an hour... for the pizza the dough was good but not enough toppings... peppered mussels and good seafood salad... fried fish mediocre!

15/08/2025: The pizza was delicious and everything was good and the staff were very welcoming.

04/09/2025: The place is located in a fairytale natural setting, practically attached to the picturesque olive tree rock, and this is the main feature. It's a shame, however, that the spaces of the structure are very retro and poorly maintained, as are the rooms. Overall, we were welcomed well, although perhaps given the tiredness of the end of the season, we had an adequate approach. My advice is not a criticism. It would take very little to improve and enrich the structure and offer more modern comforts in step with the times, given the current cost line.

19/08/2025: I had dinner at this restaurant, mostly seafood-based. I'd particularly like to mention the struncatura with local tuna, a generous portion and exceptional quality—a must-try! The spaghetti with clams was excellent, and the pizza was excellent! The unparalleled view of the Scoglio dell'Ulivo and the sound of the waves provide a splendid backdrop. Recommended.

02/09/2025: Truly excellent, both the owner and the young man who works there are friendly and quite helpful. The pizza is truly excellent, both stuffed and Margherita. I recommend the 4 Formaggi, which is really good. The free cover charge is also nice and convenient, so you really get what you pay for. Recommended for both families and solo travelers. That said, I'll be back as soon as I can.

24/08/2025: Pizza very good and the staff is very friendly and attentive

06/09/2025: We went for dinner on a recommendation and went back two days later to get takeout. The service was excellent, the staff very polite and friendly. We also had a second taste of their local amaro, Ferrochina del Moro, and brought two bottles back to Spain. Overall, the best pizzeria in Castrovillari right now.

14/06/2025: Ho avuto modo di lavorare in questa pizzeria per un periodo e, con la massima sincerità e nel rispetto di tutti, sento di poter condividere la mia esperienza. Dal punto di vista della qualità del prodotto, purtroppo devo dire che la pizza spesso risultava poco cotta, e nel complesso non raggiungeva gli standard che ci si aspetterebbe da un locale del genere. Per quanto riguarda l’ambiente di lavoro, mi dispiace constatare che non è stato sereno. Ho trovato alcune persone poco collaborative e, in certi casi, addirittura maleducate e aggressive, il che ha reso il clima molto pesante. Ci tengo però a sottolineare che i due cuochi rappresentano una piacevole eccezione: professionali, educati e sempre disponibili. Nonostante tutto, considero anche questa esperienza come una lezione importante. Personalmente, non vedevo l’ora di voltare pagina e oggi sono felice di averlo fatto.

03/09/2025: I only had two arancini, one with 'nduja and the other with ham and mozzarella... really good. The one with 'nduja was excellent, I'll try other specialties soon... if the morning is a good indicator of the day...

29/08/2025: Excellent, quite crowded, despite this they served us immediately, the pizzas and crocche were very good, the arancini a little less so.

08/09/2025: September 8th: Terrible welcome, rude staff. "You have to be completely right or you'll be kicked out." These were the words, perhaps just because they're young. However, it's not acceptable for customers to always be right, even if they can be fanatical. Otherwise, this place has nothing to offer. There's no music. The only problem is the sunbeds and the unpleasant staff. I'll add that I just left the beach, and after reading the review, they even made fun of me.

25/08/2025: Gorgeous location, on Paola's stunning seafront. They have a restaurant, bar, and beach club, and have been family-run for many years. The outdoor spaces could definitely use some updating, but overall, I appreciated the fact that they were open on the seafront, which is already sadly deserted these days with many restaurants empty. They were even serving fresh croissants at 11 p.m., which was great. Fast service and fair prices. As for the fish dinner (don't you dare order meat here), the food is fresh and generally good. They also have a children's menu, and free parking is available in front of the restaurant. A place with tons of potential, but unfortunately, it hasn't quite blossomed as it deserved.

12/09/2025: We went for dinner two nights in a row. The first night, we ordered two pizzas. The second night, we ordered a plate of seafood pasta, which was good, and a plate of tagliatelle with mushrooms, which I wasn't happy with because, upon eating it, I immediately realized it was frozen food from the "quattro salti in padella" brand. If this is the treatment, I don't think we'll be back.

07/08/2025: Although the food was good, the owner and staff were an absolute disaster. I ordered a meal and one drink – a 1-liter bottle of cola. The waiter brought a smaller one, so I pointed it out, and he exchanged it for the one I had ordered. But when it came time to pay, I discovered that the bill was too high. I went to the staff to ask them to correct the mistake, but no one spoke English. I tried to communicate using a translator on my phone, but the owner completely ignored it. He said the cola had been ordered and opened (by the waiter), so I had to pay for it. I tried to explain that it wasn’t fair, but he didn’t listen to me at all. In the end, he rudely told me that since I was in Italy, I should speak Italian, not English. In my opinion, this was totally inappropriate, and the owner was very aggressive – he made rude gestures and spoke to us in a disrespectful way. One thing is certain – I will never go back there again

30/07/2025: Cena a base di pesce, materie prime di qualità eccellente; servizio impeccabile; location accogliente; ottimo rapporto qualità/prezzo. Ci ritornerò per deliziarmi degli altri piatti proposti dallo chef.

30/07/2025: Super cena di pesce. Consigliatissimi gli antipasti e i primi. Ambiente confortevole. Personale molto gentile e solare

29/08/2025: Compliment closed. It doesn't exist at the moment.

23/07/2025: Excellent bar with a deli open for lunch. Traditional Calabrian fare, but also excellent fish, seafood, and pasta dishes. The staff are courteous and professional, even offering personal advice.

12/10/2025: Excellent place for lunch on the way home from work. Good value. A well-stocked aperitif with a variety of dishes. A great place to spend a pleasant evening with friends.

08/10/2025: Everything is authentic and freshly prepared. The food is excellent, with a wide variety of choices.

11/08/2025: Excellent fish-based first courses, the linguine with clams is a must-try!

09/08/2025: Unpretentious, mediocre street-front location, poorly maintained, food from a menu with per-course prices typical of a respectable restaurant. Unfortunately, what we ate didn't reflect its value at all. Nothing fresh was present, and the products were defrosted, as stated on the menu, lacking flavor or culinary expertise. A steep bill for bland dishes.

22/08/2025: I took the pizza to go, very good

10/08/2025: Good pizza Friendly waiters Good atmosphere Average prices, except for the cover charge, which is a bit more expensive, about €3.50 if I'm not mistaken, but otherwise, it's okay.
