Antica Trattoria Etnea In Catania

Experience was very basic and plain. Nothing stood out to me as exciting. In my opinion, the "Bistecca ai ferri media" was dry and lacked flavor. The "cotoletta alla milanese" had a great look but lacked any real flavor. The service was basic. I got everything i needed when I asked for it. I was a little put off that i couldn't finish a though before I was interrupted. I would understand if they were busy, but there were like 3 tables occupied. The atmosphere was ok. I didn't use the bathroom, but the silverware and glasses appeared clean. It was a good place to people watch. On a busy day, it will be a good place to people watch. Someone else may really enjoy the establishment, but it was mediocre to me. Considering the great restaurants in Catania and the surrounding area, I probably won't be back to this restaurant to eat.

The food was delicious, the service was great, and the prices were unbeatable! So 10/10 ♥️ I absolutely don't understand the negative comments. For me it was the best meal in Catania in terms of price/performance. Grazie 🙏🏽 + very central!

We took two fish menus for 20 euros, respecting the times indicated on the menu! Spaghetti with squid ink very good and the ones I took with clams were also good as a second course we had the grilled cuttlefish and those were also very good!!! The staff were friendly and helpful

I wonder why so many people give them a low rating. It's not true I can recomment this restaurant to everyone and give them a 5 star rating in all. Food was very delicious and fresh. Service was very friendly and helpful. Location is great. Price for food is very fair, not expensive at all. When ever i travel to Catania again, i'll visit them again.

I have read many reviews of this restaurant. which says that the food is not delicious, the service is not good But now I have come to eat at this restaurant. The food at this restaurant is very delicious and the service is good. I highly recommend that anyone passing through this area must stop by and try the food at this restaurant at a good price. You have to sing it yourself to know that it's really delicious.

Great restaurant in the middle of the city. The food is tasty and the price is super cheap. You have to do it.

Everything was very tasty, service was very friendly and accommodating.

Negative reviews can only be explained in one way: ENVY. I ate here just tonight. All delicious, generous portions and low price. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Very quick service. We walked in from the street, waiters were at the door to serve us. Got our table outside and the waiters were always standing at the door waiting for our order. Ate a margherita pizza and some pasta with tomato sauce and salted ricotta. All tasted nice and got the food in 10 mins to our table. Staff took the empty plates away when we finished. Very pleased with the service!

We ordered a menu that was 15€ and consisted of 3 courses and a drink. They first bring you spaghetti (you chose from over 10 different kinds), than you get meat either chicken or lamb (you can chose the same with fish but it’s 5€ more expensive) this comes with a salad or fries (your choice) plus bread and a soft drink. The food came out in 5 minutes and as soon you finish with the first meal they immediately change your silverware clean ur table and after 5 more minutes you get the main course. Food was delicious just the salad was a lil dull, considering we paid only 63.5€ for 4 people and we couldn’t even finish everything. Would recommend this to yall, idk why they have only 2.5 starts on google.
