Blanca Bar In Aci castello

Great atmosphere, service and pizzas 🍕

We were there last night, and I can honestly say the pizza is truly excellent—I think it's one of the best in Catania. It's packed with top-quality ingredients, and the dough is delicious and easy to digest. Perfectly cooked, the staff are really friendly, and the prices aren't too high. My compliments, we'll be back as soon as possible.

Very good pizza, quality ingredients. The service could be improved.

Despite a number of negative reviews, the pizza is light and delicious: a mix of Catanian and Neapolitan dough. The owner is charming, elegant, and extremely kind, the staff is helpful and attentive, and the location is wonderful, with the fresh air enjoyed from the piazza overlooking the sea and the fairytale setting beneath the castle. I recommend the fried pizza: a delight, fried to perfection and topped with the finest toppings.

We had visited the castle a few days before and knew we wanted to come back to the Piazza to visit a restaurant. When we arrived in town, we were drawn to Blanca as there were people already seated, and the vibe in the Piazza was great with locals walking dogs and kids playing. The view of the floodlit castle was also impressive. The staff here are all lovely and friendly. The lady who served us was thrilled to hear we were English so she could practice her speaking. Frankly, she speaks better English than a lot of English people and was charming with it. We had soft drinks, and my son had fried pizza, which is a calzone but fried! We likened it to a savoury doughnut - delicious! I had the tortellini which was just the right sized portion. We also asked for bread and were pleasantly surprised to get a pizza base brushed with what I think was rosemary butter. For the two second courses, bread, 3 drinks and a bottle of water we paid 53€ which I think was great value. Most certainly recommend.
