"Gorgeous little place in Tropea, beautiful setting and food was amazing. I had the nudja pasta which was phenomenal, one of the best meals of our trip!"

"Had dinner here and had a pasta and the swordfish. The waitress didn’t speak much english so got the wrong pasta. The cocktails we ordered took a lot of time and also us asking twice for it and only 1 came. The food was good and the prices were fair, only the seafood tasting was on the higher side. The atmosphere was good, only it started to rain, but we secured a place inside and the staff even said sorry for the rain."

The food was absolutely delicious — authentic Calabrese cucina full of rich, local flavors. From the appetizers to dessert, everything was beautifully prepared and paired perfectly with great wine. The service was fantastic — friendly, attentive, and welcoming. A truly memorable experience in Tropea. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy traditional Calabrian dishes in a beautiful setting!"

"A great spot tucked away from the crowds with second to none service and food! Especially notable for gluten free/senza glutine options - save yourself the trouble of researching where to eat in Tropea and head here!"

"Charming and quiet spot in the centre of Tropea, though a bit hidden. We had the degustazione di mare to share – a great choice. For mains, we tried the pasta with swordfish (very tasty but quite a small portion) and the grilled tuna with red onion (delicious and generously sized). Tiramisu for dessert was perfect, and the house white wine was also nice. The only downside was the slow service – we waited quite a while to place our order and between courses. Still, the food and atmosphere made it worth the visit."
