Sacro Panza

Cibo buonissimo e tipico del posto, cordialità e simpatia lo rendono un punto di forza e di attrazione per il paese. Il mio piatto preferiti resta la tagliata di manzo.

Questo ristorante è stato qualcosa di magico per me e mia moglie. Dato il bel tempo abbiamo mangiato all'esterno e si stava benissimo. Vengono suggeriti i piatti del giorno basandosi sugli ingredienti freschi. Abbiamo preso un antipasto misto con alici, fiori di zucca fritti, verdure miste e patate con peperoni. Successivamente abbiamo preso un piatto di spaghetti alla cetrarese per me e un piatto di baccalà impanato per mia moglie. Infine come dolce abbiamo preso una coppa di gelato del giorno. L’impanatura dei fiori di zucca e del baccalà era davvero buona e leggera. Per chi è amante della birra, ce ne sono di diversi tipi e me ne sono fatta consigliare una che si è abbinata molto bene con i piatti scelti. Tutto buonissimo con ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo! Se ripasseremo per Cetraro, ci torneremo sicuramente!

Quando siamo arrivati ci hanno fatto accomodare ad un tavolo all'esterno. Ambiente molto carino con due fila di tavoli una ad ogni lato della strada. Nessuno indossava la mascherina se non la titolare. Abbiamo aspettato 20 minuti per ordinare, altri 20 per l'antipasto (antipasto freddo, vedi foto) e i due primi che avevamo ordinato non sono arrivati insieme. Il risotto era già finito quando sono arrivati i fusilli, comunque erano buoni. Quando abbiamo ordinato avevamo scelto altri piatti presenti sul menù ma ci è stato detto che il baccalà era finito ed anche le patatine, i panini non potevano essere fatti (già comunicato al momento della prenotazione del tavolo) e anche il vino scelto non c'era. Abbiamo mangiato solo quello che vedete in foto e una bottiglia di vino 75cl e una bottiglia d'acqua 1.5lt. Costo 52€.

Great food and drinks. It also serves lunch. Located in the city center of Cetraro

Have been visiting this innovative and friendly restaurant since it was opened. It is easily accessible just off the western Calabria coast road in Cetraro. Sacro Panza's new fish dishes, from catches far out to sea locally, are a particularly welcome.

Unfortunately I can not leave a -1 star review, that is what this experience truly deserves. Maybe less. We sat at the table waiting for over one hour for our food to come. In the meantime I was forced to ask them to bring some more bread because I was starving. When the food did eventually come they brought one ‘Secondi’ before the ‘Primi’, and not even both of them (we had ordered two). I was with my partner and she was there waiting for her food while I was eating (bear in mind she had ordered; ‘Spaghetto al pomodoro,’ which literally cooks in 10 minutes maximum). The food was ok. Not worth the wait. One dish was so salty I felt sick and didn’t finish it. Overall a very terrible experience. We will not be coming back. I think the waiter and waitress’ did the best they could and they where very apologetic and sincere. However this does not change the fact they need a new chef. At the end of our meal, the chef came out and said ‘Caio ragazzi’ as if everything was ok. I have never had an experience like this.

Terrible experience, probably, if not definitely, the worst restaurant experience in my life. I don't know where to begin with this mess. * Terrible service- They failed to mention half the menu wasn't available (making your own hamburger and several items from the restaurant menu). Furthermore, when asked for fried potatoes as an appetizer they directed us to a gazebo further up the street that solely makes them (even though as it is evident in the attached picture they have potatoes in the restaurant). When it came to the paying we found out that they charged us 3 euros extra per piece for a piece of bland meat that was poorly cooked and very fatty! (The original meat was no longer available so they had to change it for another type of meat). When confronted with this, the waitress told us she forgot to mention the extra cost of this meat. * Extremely rude- Whenever we asked them a question they would turn around and talk to another customer! And when confronted with the above issue, the waitress exclaimed "Mamma Mia" as we were leaving the restaurant.... I definitely do not recommend this restaurant as half the menu is missing (and is not mentioned by the staff), the service is extremely lackluster and the food is below what you would expect for the amount you pay...If possible I would give this restaurant 0 stars, which is a great shame as the other reviews really made you feel you were going to a proper restaurant.

My husband and I spent a month in Cetraro and we ate here frequently. It quickly became our favorite place for dinner. It is located in the heart of Cetraro paese only steps away from Piazza del Popolo. Paolo always made us feel welcome and always found us a table. The quality of food is consistent. The staff are attentive and friendly. They work hard and make sure you are left feeling full and satisfied. We were able to eat a delicious hamburger to make us feel at home but also get a taste of the local cuisine. Highly recommend all items on menu! Can't say enough good things about this place! You will not be disappointed. Great location, great food, great family run business. Thank you for filling our vacation with good vibes! We look forward to visiting again next summer!
