Hotel Food & Drink

This rustic, convivial restaurant in the village centre boasts a panoramic terrace overlooking the valley. A constant search for recipes from Italy’s peasant tradition combines with the passion and talent of the chef to create specialities such as raviolo della memoria.

This traditional family restaurant has been recently renovated to include an attractive veranda - style dining room overlooking the valley. Typical dishes from Calabria, fish specialities by prior arrangement, and a good wine list all add to the appeal.

Situated in the historic centre of a small village in the Parco del Pollino, this long-established restaurant serves traditional and copious local dishes that are always expertly prepared. Guestrooms are also available in the family B&B of the same name.

Michele Rizzo is the owner-chef of this interesting restaurant situated in a modern part of Rende. His menu focuses mainly on fish (although a few meat dishes are also available) which he prepares in light, modern dishes with an emphasis on local ingredients. There’s also an interesting wine list.

Situated just a few metres from the main square of old Maratea, this tavern is a historic and typical restaurant with a kitchen area that dates from the 18C and a decor featuring Vietri ceramics. The chef delights in introducing guests to local recipes, such as the “polpo murato” (stewed octopus), one of the house specialities. The wine list boasts around 400 labels, with a particular focus on France and small-scale producers from Italy and further afield. Small groups (a maximum of 6 people) can choose to dine in the wine cellar surrounded by old bottles, many of which are collector’s items.

In the dining room there are old photos and equipment from country life, from the terrace the entire valley. Among widespread grasslands and olive trees enjoy fresh produce and home - cooked local dishes.
