Tomate Calabrian Food
Ristorante Tomate Calabrian Food
A budget-friendly eatery at Piazza Vittorio Veneto, at the entrance to the old town, known for its nduja hand-rolled pasta and sandwiches. Rated 4.8 on TripAdvisor.
Located on Piazza Vittorio Veneto at the entrance to the old town, this spot grew out of the former Bar Tomate sandwich shop and is open from breakfast until late at night. The focus is authentic Calabrian home cooking: fileja hand-rolled pasta with nduja and Monte Poro Pecorino, nduja dumplings and seafood. There are also stuffed ciabatta sandwiches and burgers, well suited to a quick lunch. It has a 4.8 rating on TripAdvisor, though reviewers note that service can be slow at times and the pizza quality is uneven. Expect about €10–25 per person. It's one of the better-value options in the old town, and no reservations are needed.
