Hops Live

This restaurant was truly a fantastic experience! I arrived at Viva Valentia just two days ago, and I dined here for the first time yesterday. I was so impressed with the meat that I returned again this evening. The atmosphere is welcoming, the service very friendly, and the ambiance pleasant. The steak is definitely the highlight: excellent quality, tender, and juicy. Even the rare cuts near the bone were delicious, without any unpleasant aftertaste. We even cleaned every last bit off the bone: a sign of how good it was! For them, this type of beef is quite ordinary and not considered expensive; it's just that for me, having not had many opportunities to eat this type of meat, which I consider a bit more "upscale," the price can seem high. In China, I usually eat mostly chicken, simple dishes, or marinated meat, which aren't very expensive. Maybe it's just a cultural difference. In any case, while the price isn't cheap, the quality is absolutely top-notch. If you love meat, this place is not to be missed! 😋😋🥰🥰

Excellent aged meat, very kind and friendly staff. Fantastic experience. They gave us excellent advice and it was a pleasure to chat with them. Excellent value for money.

The absolute best in Vibo Valentia! Hops is an experience that goes beyond a simple dinner out. A well-kept restaurant, a warm and welcoming atmosphere, and always friendly and smiling staff. But the real magic is in the food: exquisite selections of meats, cooked to perfection, with a wide selection that's overwhelming (in a good way!). Each course is a triumph of flavors, from gourmet burgers to delicious side dishes, to dreamy desserts. Carefully selected craft beers, generous portions, and fair prices: Hops never disappoints. And the icing on the cake? The wonderful Peppe and Marisa, extraordinary hosts, always present, passionate, and attentive to every detail. Their energy and smiles make every evening even more special. Congratulations indeed: Hops is a gem! 🔥🍔🥩🍻💫

I found this place thanks to a friend's recommendation. The service is fast and attentive. The fried foods are very good, and the meat is truly exceptional.

It was truly delicious! Thank you for the wonderful and friendly service. I especially want to highlight the sauce under my fillet – simply sensational! Don't forget to try the delicious tiramisu!

A great experience! The steakhouse offers top-quality meat, cooked to perfection and served with great care. The atmosphere is welcoming and the service impeccable: the staff is attentive and friendly. The owner is truly passionate, always present in the dining room to ensure every customer is satisfied. Highly recommended for those who love good meat and genuine, professional service!

A sublime carnivorous experience worthy of every star. The Florentine steak arrives with a perfect crust hiding a pink and succulent center. The cooking is impeccable, the superior quality meat literally melts in your mouth. The fillet is velvety, almost buttery, and the grill is mastered with absolute mastery. The staff knows every cut perfectly and recommends perfect pairings. The refined atmosphere never feels pretentious. Prices are high, but justified by the exceptional quality. A temple for true meat lovers who seek uncompromising excellence. I will definitely return.
