Antica Brace In Castellammare del golfo

Very tasty local food, large selection, and short wait times. I recommend it.

If you want rotisserie chicken from this place, you need a strategy. While staying nearby, I reached a point in my Sicily trip where I needed a break from the copious amounts of pasta, pizza, and tomato sauce I was eating. I was on a mission to find protein. We tried twice. The first time, they were sold out. The second time, we arrived to find chickens still turning on the rotisserie, only to learn they had all been reserved. At that point, I wasn’t accepting defeat. I was determined. On day three, I called ahead and reserved a chicken for pickup. It was absolutely worth the effort. We left with a whole rotisserie chicken, roasted potatoes, french fries, eggplant Parmesan, stuffed mushrooms, and two large bottled beers. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and delicious. The chicken was perfectly cooked and exactly what I had been craving. What surprised us most was the value. We ordered what felt like enough food for a small army and somehow spent only around €20. It was not only one of the most affordable meals of our trip, but also one of the most satisfying and we still had enough leftovers for lunch the next day. Wonderful food, incredible value, and friendly service. My only advice: if you have your heart set on the chicken, call ahead. Trust me on this one. *This is a takeaway place.*

Excellent food and great kindness

Everything here is delicious, from appetizers to dessert. The cassatelle al 🍋 are excellent, the best. Must try.

One of my local rotisserie chickens. Lots of delicious first and second courses.

Small place but packed with every delicacy, friendly staff, and generous portions. Low prices, excellent quality.

I ordered some takeout, and everything was very good. The staff was helpful and very friendly. They have a few tables inside for dining. The prices were fair. Well done, I'll be back!

I highly recommend this place. We came three times during our four-day stay, and it was always delicious. We tried the lasagna, arancini, octopus salad, tomato salad, cassatelle, and caponata, and everything was delicious. Special mention also goes to the shrimp and pistachio pesto busiate. Plus, the staff is friendly. I wanted to order the fish couscous, but it's only available on Fridays.

Very good Sicilian take away. We have been there twice already during Easter holidays.

Amazing food, nice service! We were happy when we ate it. I recommend everyone not to miss this place.
