Antico Frantoio In Mineo

What a feast! We stumbled across this amazing, family owned and run restaurant on our travels through Sicily. Mineo is a scenic village tucked high up in the hills with amazing views - and from the front porch of this place you can see out into the valley. Quiet and picturesque and well worth detouring to go walk around after you feast here! Great menu - all lovely local food. We had amazing anti pasta, then onto fresh pasta, great veal and chicken and salad and we just couldn't stop! Lovely local white and red wine in a carafe. The family were SO friendly to us even though we don't speak Italian and their English was limited (except for the super friendly wife of the chef who happened to be eating there with her two young daughters and helped translate everything!!). We were driving from the south coast to Etna - a lovely scenic route through the hills and valleys; a nice change to hugging the coast. Highly recommend!
