Le vie del gusto

Came here almost by accident and the meal was absolutely incredible. There wasn't any menu, but the food was all incredible and extremely authentic. The owner was our server, despite us not speaking italian, and the staff not speaking English we managed to communicate well enough. The owner was so kind and when we told him it was our honeymoon he didn't charge me for my beer. An absolutely incredible way to cap off our trip.

A bit of adventure, and a bit of home, eating here was the highlight of our three-week trip across Italy. Authentic is an overused word these days and doesn't begin to do justice to the depth and deliciousness of the food here. It seems like the menu is set on a daily basis, so make sure to call ahead and make a reservation so they know you're coming. We didn't know this, but they were gracious enough to make room for us anyway. There is no physical menu, but the host and servers will take the time to explain what is available. They even asked us about food allergies. Regardless of what you order it will be the best hand-made Calabrian meal you'll ever have.

We had a fabulous evening at La vie del gusto, thank you very much! The antipasti was terrific and we had great fun trying the different dishes. My requests for a vegetarian meal were met without any problem. Even though my Italian is not good, we were served very warmly. The restaurant is definitely worth a visit, wonderful local and regional food!

I genuinely have to say that you have to try this place. It’s insanely good. I’m Italian, I’m a foodie who loves to try different restaurants and cuisines and I have to say that this place deserves a second restaurant in London, Soho possibly. The food is super fresh (no written menu), tasty. We had the chance to try different local dishes as everything was just perfect. The price was lower than we expected - a nice surprise!

My parents and I have eaten in fancy Restaurants in Venice, Rome, Florence, Taormina, and other Italian cities. Still, we had never eaten food as delicious as in Le vie del gusto. We kept ordering and ordering because we just had to try everything. Every ingredient feels as fresh as it is (they have no menu, everything their kitchen offers is locally grown), and it results in the most fantastic homemade meal we have ever had. We ate a meal which could have been for 20 people, and we couldn’t stop. We even had dessert (their homemade sorbet is really good). The servers are the NICEST people ever. They made us laugh so much, and even taught us some key Italian words. Lovely place and lovely people...and the best food. I would go out of my way to eat here again if I ever have the opportunity to be in the area. Thank you so much!
