I migliori ristoranti di cucina pizza e pasta in Calabria

12/10/2025: Horrible experience. We went for dinner and were very hungry, we were said we have to wait for pizza for about 30 mins, so we decided to order fries to eat smthg before the pizzas will be ready. The fries came after the pizza, we said we don’t want them anymore since it’s already too late and asked to cut the pizza into slices. The blond waiter said that fries are already prepared and she will not take them back, and in this case to cut pizza will take her 10 mins ( she knew we were waiting for the order more than 30 mins, and we are hungry and we would just eat those fries). This looked really ugly and she spoiled the mood to all of us. At the bar after complaints they removed the fries from the bill, but there was a big bottle of water on the bill that they put on the table without even asking us ( we didn’t order). They spoiled our evening.

19/09/2025: Stunning location, with a wonderful sea view. I had a truly wonderful dinner, immersed in a serene and relaxing atmosphere. The pizza was truly excellent, the service was quick, and the waiters were kind and efficient. Nothing to complain about, an experience that tastes of Reggio and the sea. P.S. If you find a knife in the plant, it's mine ❤️

24/08/2025: You should just be ashamed!!!!! We ordered 4 zeppole, two eggplant fritters, a capricciosa pizza, and a beef burger sandwich, cheddar salad and bacon (I had the mayonnaise and ketchup removed which were listed on the menu), a large water and a Moretti beer.... we had to pay 21 euros... at the cashier we paid 24.50... they increased the sandwich from 5 to 8 euros and the pizza from 4.50 to 5 euros... when I complained that on the downloaded PDF menu and on the one hanging on the wall outside there was a different price, they replied that it was old and needed to be updated.... it's a shame that those who were Calabrian and paid before us had paid the price that was written everywhere. If you are on holiday in Locri and therefore you are not Calabrian, do not go to Poldo, you could have unpleasant surprises because the price suddenly changes... I would have paid you not only the 3 euros more... since I am on holiday I do not care about the euro ...but for the fooling, take someone else. Shame.

23/08/2025: I don't recommend it. The prices displayed both on the sign outside and those you scan with the code aren't real. When you go to pay, you end up with a different amount. I ask for information on the bill and am told the prices are up to date. I hope law enforcement does its job and checks out these scammers who inflate prices without updating the menu. Being fooled like this is truly shameful.

24/08/2025: I arrive and see a waitress eating a mixed fried food near the pizza oven. Everything is fine, nothing special. We sit down and order. No bread or breadsticks on the table. We wait for more than an hour. Finally, the pizzas and mixed fried food arrive. A friend even left almost the whole pizza. 4 mixed fried food portions are poor. Mine was actually half the size of the others. The location is nice, but it's better to have a dive with good food than a nice location with hunger and prices a little higher than the restaurants in the area (for the locals, you saw me once and you never saw me again).

22/08/2025: I'm giving one star because it's the best, terrible service, terrible dinner, because of the long wait, they kindly brought us a focaccia which was quite good, but they made me pay for it, I hope I never go back there again, change jobs, it's not for you

17/10/2025: Unfortunately, I don't know if it was because we happened to be there during the All Souls' Day festival, but I can't share the stars others have given. It was chaotic with people, noisy children, confusing service, though prompt. The food was decent but nothing special. The place was barely adequate.

22/08/2025: As soon as we ordered, we waited at least an hour for just a few items, and having had restaurant experience, I'd say two waiters are too few for the number of people, and they don't listen to what's being asked of them. After eating, I ordered fries, which after an hour and a half still hadn't arrived, so my friends and I got up and went to pay, making the waitresses feel guilty when they said, "I hadn't sent the order to the kitchen," about the fries. The food was at least decent, but the service was terrible.

13/01/2026: Just one word: disturbing. Regardless of the product, which doesn't reflect the tradition and authentic dough of Roman pan pizza, the staff's rudeness and lack of hospitality reign supreme. The rush to order is evident, and it's seen as rude when customers ask questions or ask about the ingredients on the pizzas... beware of the pitfall of "double" pizza when you order.

26/11/2025: Quality has declined over the years and prices have skyrocketed. If it weren't for Massimino... the location would be excellent.

29/10/2025: Beautiful venue right on the beach. Service was very nice. Some of menu items were not available for lunch which is understandable. We would recommend this restaurant for the view alone.

21/09/2025: I've had lunch twice at this restaurant with its enchanting view. I was on vacation with friends and would have returned several times given the quality of the food and the tranquility of the place, but we were mocked for tactical menu changes like, "Oh! We don't have this seafood appetizer (20 euros) today, but if you want, I'll bring you octopus and marinated anchovies." They didn't specify that they become two separate dishes, and you pay 20 euros for two tentacles and 20 euros for 8 anchovies. So your seafood appetizer becomes a starred appetizer for 40 euros. The receipt never arrived. We were wrong not to ask for anything at the time, but we were on a happy, carefree vacation and only later realized we'd been a bit ripped off.

04/10/2025: Poor and sad aperitif. 2 Aperol spritzes were colored water accompanied by a bowl of crisps and that's it, €15 and without a receipt, we definitely won't be back and I recommend hiring a real bartender who knows how to mix.

02/10/2025: Rude, unprofessional, expensive

31/12/2025: The worst pizza we've ever had. The set menu was a sea of ​​canned tomato sauce on pre-baked crostini dough with a drink (the Coke tasted heavenly). The spritz was more expensive than the set menu (€7). The service was quite unpleasant. Deplorable.

30/12/2025: For €6.50 per person we ate a good pizza + drink and relaxed

13/10/2025: Terrible experience! My only consolation is that I'm not the only one. I just saw the reviews, but they've been overwhelmingly negative for at least five years. How they manage to stay open remains a mystery. I ordered two sandwiches, two arancini, and a can of coke for €37. The receipt only showed the total, so the individual prices were a bit of a guess. The owner was gloomy, to say the least, and offered no explanation. The place has many outdoor tables, but don't you dare change the layout, it's "absolutely forbidden." And don't be fooled by the message "bathroom out of order." They only allow customers to use it. I clearly heard the electric lock operated by the girl behind the counter. If you can, avoid! Luckily, not all Tropea residents are like this. Message for the owners: CLOSE

06/10/2025: Embarrassing toast, prices not displayed. Tourist trap, simply embarrassing...
