Piro Piro - REGGIO DI CALABRIA

Beautiful, elegant and cool place with great view on the Stretto. However I felt disappointed by the overall experience. The place is a common area divided into Restaurant (on the left and Pizzeria (on the right , with the same style and sharing the same open kitchen serving both areas. Hence the menus are different: some dishes are served only in the Pizzeria and others only in the restaurant. No flexibility. True, you are advised at the entrance. However if you 'd like to have a fried paranza (fried fish with fried chips the waiter will tell you no way: not possible selecting french fries. And then you will see waiters with french fries exiting from the same place of your fried fish and going somewhere else, maybe 3 tables on the left!. So you 'll find out that chips are available, but only for the Pizzeria section! (maybe fried fish together with fried chips is too low level? Same situation if among your guests a person would like to eat pizza: NO WAY. Your friend needs to be seated few meters away! (maybe alone? . Is this a way to look cool? Or rather just to annoy the restaurant guests? Finally, the menu in the restaurant section looks done in a way to appear sophisticated and original, but somehow is too pretentious: I had the feeling that the place privileges appearance to substance. Food was fair but far from memorable.

I came with my boyfriend and We tried both cooked and raw fish and it was terrible. Bad experience, fortunately the staff was kindly and likeable.

We had a reservation at 21:30 and they make us wait until 22:40 because they didn't have an available table (is that the point of reservations? . When we finally have a seat our pizzas were 1.5 hour late. When we told the waiter about those pizzas he said no its only 30 minutes, but it was really 1.5 hour late and we had a proof for it . Only then he said that he was sorry. Some pizzas didn't have the right ingredients. Location is very good and decoration quite good also. When we paid at the cashier lady she was rude.

Le aspettative erano alte personalmente non sono state soddisfatte per il locale sembra buono è un posto molto bello, la qualità dei piatti eccellenti che sono rimasto molto impressionato dalla pasta, il servizio non era in cima ma comunque non ci hanno trascurato, tutto in tutto che volentieri tornerei.

Lido con vista spettacolare della stretta. ristorante con pesce fresco e raffinato, anche se un po' troppo costoso. Eccellente lista dei vini. la pizza invece lascia a desiderare, è un po' gommosa
