For a taste of traditional Calabrian cooking, modest, welcoming Ristorante a Squella makes for a great lunchtime stop. It serves reliably good dishes, specialising in seafood and Calabrian pasta dishes. The views from just outside are spectacular and the service from the friendly family that owns the restaurant is warm and heartfelt. Try the delicious deep-fried doughnuts for dessert.
