We had dinner on Saturday evening on the recommendation of an acquaintance, whom I will forever thank for recommending this restaurant.
We felt welcomed like family.
The explanation of each dish was a true tale of how and why that offering was on the menu.
All seasoned with passion and expertise.
We had a wonderful evening, dining beautifully and feeling a little pampered.
Highly recommended.

We were looking for a good restaurant, but everything nearby was already booked and not very comforting, despite the reviews. Finally, we found the Antica Locanda. It's been a long time since I've found a restaurant as magnificent as this one. Everything was exceptional, from the menu to the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff, and I'm not the type to leave positive reviews often. I enjoyed the local dishes recommended by the staff, and I must say it was truly worth it, not to mention the desserts, which were explained in detail. I highly recommend it; I give it 6 stars, even though the maximum is 5. If I ever return to Ortigia, it will be my first stop. Wonderful.

Mirko and his staff will offer you a unique culinary experience in the heart of Ortigia, crafting seafood-inspired dishes that are both a feast for the eyes and the palate. Mediterranean flavors that deserve a sublime rating, highly recommended!

High-quality, fresh fish, friendly, professional service. We had the spaghetti with clams and the fried calamari and shrimp. Everything was delicious. Thanks to the owner, who prepared a simple yet delicious tomato pasta dish especially for my daughter.

Excellent food, generous portions, a well-maintained restaurant, and friendly staff.
However, a negative experience came when I received the bill: I was charged an extra two euros for paying with American Express, without being informed of this.
Beyond the gesture itself (perhaps understandable for a roadside kiosk, certainly not for a place of this caliber), the problem was the failure to disclose this surcharge at checkout; an unfortunate lapse in style for an otherwise perfect experience.

Fantastic seafood tagliolini
The oysters are also fantastic
Service by Angelo, who gives advice and pampers you with kindness
Fair prices
The only flaw: it's a bit off the beaten path and isn't easy to pass by since it's not on the main street.
