We enjoyed our meal here very much. The antipasti sampler was great and plenty of food for two.

We also had some wine, 2/3 of a bottle to be exact, since they bring you the bottle (not house wine) to your table and only charge you for what you consumed.

This place is located in the ancient part of Cosenza. We walked from our Airbnb and enjoyed seeing…read morethe alleyways with Street art and the Duomo. The restaurant was easy to find with maps, and we were quickly seated outside (at about 9pm on a Sunday night). The view of the cobblestone plaza and apartments with terraces was so beautiful and charming. The staff at Calabria Bella didn't speak very much English at all, which made us happy. The place seemed to be full of locals enjoying a relaxing, beautiful, summer evening. We ordered a bottle of wine at the waiters recommendation and ended up with something crisp and white, not sweet, which is exactly what we'd hoped for. There were so many options, but some of the things we tried were the roast chicken, the gnocchi and the veal. The one hiccup was that we thought we were ordering scallops and ended up with veal, but that was totally the fault of us and our translating app, so we made do and all tried it- it was amazing even though we're not even fans of veal! We were definitely tourists since we spent a shorter amount of time seated than any of the locals, but we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and hope we didn't look too foolish to all the locals!

All of the staff were friendly, attentive, and happy to share what makes Calabria unique in Italy. I enjoyed the 7 course offering but in true hospitality was give both desserts and many after dinner treats; so thankful for all the great food. Abbruzino is another hidden restaurant gem in the area worth consideration and worthy of their Michelin star recognition.

Just happened to spot this restaurant on the Michelin guide and decided to check it out. At first…read moreis was a bit difficult to find, actually not difficult but "different" as it seems to enter someone home rather than a restaurant, and that warm welcoming feeling is what follows you throughout the meal. Even if elegant does not make you feeling uncomfortable, the menu changes often and they try always to serve seasonal food. The style of the dishes is local Italian/Calabrese but never obvious, they really try to start from great ingredients and a sound culinary culture to move forward a make the difference. The tuna appetizer, the pasta with anduia and sea urchins, and the gelato di pane are just amazing. Last but not least the price is affordable and the quality/price ratio is great.
