A Rusticana In Ragusa

Disappointment after a four-year wait After four years, I enthusiastically returned to this restaurant, driven by fond memories. Unfortunately, the experience didn't live up to expectations. I ordered a meat appetizer, grilled spaghetti with tomato sauce, and a cannoli. The appetizer included several dishes, all very similar in flavor: a dish that seemed assembled more to increase the bill than to surprise the palate. The spaghetti, although well cooked and with an interesting aroma, was completely lacking in flavor. The dessert was the biggest disappointment: the cannoli, along with the other desserts, seemed to have just come out of a supermarket package. Nothing that reminded me of the authenticity and care of the home cooking I had so appreciated years ago. In the end, the only thing that remained truly "salty" was the bill. What a shame.

Typical, good, fair prices, TOP service!

Great little spot off the main track. Most people miss this restaurant but it’s one of our faves in the area

Excellent authentic Sicilian food just like my grandmother used to make. This is my favorite restaurant in Sicily so far and we have been to Palermo, Mondello, and Cefalu. The sausage and potatoes and cavatappi with meat sauce was delicious.

We went for dinner in 4, welcoming place with excellent service. We had as an appetizer the cosacavaddu arrustutu and the arancinetti. Then, in 3 we had the first courses (two ravioli with pork sauce and pasta alla norma) and one the second course (sausage and potatoes). Everything well cooked and good. Recommended. Good price (with drinks - water and carafe of wine 1/2 liter) €25 per person.

It is always a pleasure to return for dinner at this place. Excellent food and friendly service. The only regret was not being able to dine outside enjoying the magnificent scents of the jasmine pergola...it was a bit chilly.

It's wonderful to be in the place where Commissioner Montalbano ate 😉

Typical traditional dishes, beautifully cooked. Some are unique because it is not easy to cook them in restaurants. Among the first courses I recommend the spaghetti with roasted tomato and the cavati with pork sauce. It is worth trying a bit of everything. I recommend the "land dishes" cuisine because it is definitely typical and less common. Beautiful setting inside but outside is a dream, especially in the spring or summer season.

Trattoria con corte interna all’aperto incantevole. Abbiamo pranzato sotto l’ombra del glicine. Cibo ottimo e personale gentilissimo. Prezzi nella media. Ragusa bellissima e ci torneremmo senz’altro.

Location accogliente e caratteristica. Personale sorridente e disponibile. Piatti della tradizione unici e buonissimi, dagli antipasti allo stinco. Domenica in famiglia da rifare
