This place seemed popular with the locals, so my hubby and I gave this place a try. Food is legit!…read moreWe split a bufalotta pizza- tomato sauce, cherry tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, basil, and oregano. We also shared the mixed platter appetizer, but it is quite large. If i were to only order one single appetizer, it would be the eggplant (meat)balls. My only "complaint" is that they get really busy. We ordered some wine and they failed to bring it to us. It was no big deal--- maybe it was God's way of telling us we should drink less. Hehe. The food was awesome and we may even swing by here for lunch before our flight home.

I have no reason not to give it 5 stars -- it's nothing super fancy or special, but it was yummy and a pleasant experience! Bruschetta tipica and pasta alle vongole are recommended.

This is a gem of a place located along the esplanade on the beach of Tropea…read more The atmosphere is an excellent spot to enjoy the sunsets, beach scene and listen to the waves. The service is excellent as the staff is very attentive, caring and patient with our lack of knowing Italian. The food is authentic Italian and super fresh! It's also very family oriented. We ate here 2 of the 3 nights we were here. Highly recommend this establishment.
