Al Girone dei Golosi - Restaurant - Wine bar

Upon entering this gave the impression of being an upmarket restaurant however our experience was entirely to the contrary. The staff were unfriendly and offhand.The pasta was dried out as was the small amount of sauce which just stuck to the pasta. Some of the pasta was actually crunchy suggesting that it had been cooked previously and reheated. There were only two tasteless tiny marble sized meat balls. One member of our group only had one meatball. Very little was eaten by each person. The next course consisted of two small egg sized rolls of vbeal containing some sort of filling plus a serve of particularly oily potato pieces. For sweets I had a small piece of very dry fig tart without any cream, custard or icecream. After so many lovely meals recently in Sicily and Calabria this meal was a disgrace. I have never before had occasion to write such a damning review of a restaurant. I have had better meals at cheap ordinary cafes and grills. I cannot fi9nd one positive thing to say about the meal which is without the worst restaurant meal I have ever had in my quite long and well travelled life.

Antica Locanda dal Povero Enzo

Reviewed By T0r0nt0nianTraveller

We stumbled upon this restaurant during an afternoon in Cosenza. What a wonderful surprise as this restaurant far exceeded our expectations for a nice sit down lunch. The menu is divided between Tuscan and Calabrese dishes. Food was exceptional - some of the best that we had in Italy. We took the servers recommendation and had the pasta made from chestnut flour with guanciale .... a revelation! All of the food was excellent. Service was very good, think friendly but very professional. Small place seats about 25 - wood paneling, table cloths and crystal. Exceptional value - would have happily payed twice as much. If you are in the city you must go - I am looking forward to going back day.

Reviewed By Bertz78

We had a family vacation to Italia with the family this year and spent a day in Cosenza to see our families old farmhouse. We ended up picking Mamy to eat because of the reviews and because it was almost exactly half way between where both parties were staying. The experience was fantastic! Fabio made us feel like family, we were initially going to order 4 pizzas for the 7 of us, but Fabio suggested we only get 3. He brought out some of his homemade wines for us to try and they were fantastic! His cured sausage, patate frite, UNREAL! We were in Italia for 2 weeks, and this was hands down our best meal! The pizza was incredible, Fabio and his staff truly made us feel like family, I swear we could have been at a family members house. He truly loves what he does and it shows. If you want a true Italian experience, fantastic food and great company Mamy is the place to be. You won't be disappointed!

Together we 3 friends we ended up at this trattoria. During ordering the waiter recommend us to try the antipasto with local products and preparations. The antipasto was great and we were already almost full after this dish. Despite this, we all finished our primo because we enjoyed it :)! The bill was very reasonable. Great place!

I Vini di Greta -  Ristorante WineBar

Reviewed By Pollie75

We couldn't read the Italian recommendations on Tripadvisor, but they seemed to like this winebar. So we decided to look for it! And we don't regret it. You have to look up the place, because you will not just pass by. Although it is in the center of the "new" part of Cosenza. The hostess was very, very friendly. Just as her colleagues who worked in the kitchen. She kept talking and explaining in Italian, although we hardly speak Italian. But we loved her enthousiasm. They have all kind of wines. Wines from famous Italian winehouses, but also local wines from Calabria. Which we tried and it was a nice, fresh white wine.The menu has choices of vegetarian, meet and fish. The portions are more then reasonable (and so are the prices!), but not so big as sometimes in Italy. So we could enjoy 4 tastfull courses. We can really recommend going to this Winebar in Cosenza. (And they have a few tables outside. )A city, without the noise and crazy traffic that you have so often in Italian city's, which really surprised us anyway.

We were taken to this wonderful little restaurant in the old part of Cosenza by relatives and what a find it was. Claudio served us in this one room dining area. And we had a selection of salami's, cheese's, breads, peppers, artichokes, olives and fagiole. Claudio was the ultimate host. Great wine selection too. A highlight of our trip to Cosenza.

We had lunch here today and it was great! Nice clean seafood restaurant. We had antipasto of the house (combination of lovely fried seafood, salads and rafish). We had the daily pasta with black olives, zucchini flowers and acciughe which was highly tasteful. Chocolate cake, sorbetto al limone and grappa after. Have made reservations again for the next day!

Consenza is probably not on your list of Italian cities to visit, but if you are nearby, possibly traveling from Sicily to the amalfi coast, this restaurant is worth a detour. Excellent food, impeccable service and very reasonable prices. The food, wine, and olive oil are all local and incredible quality. Enjoy.
