Cafè Extra In Ragusa

12/10/2025: I stayed in Ragusa for three nights and decided that I would eat pasta one evening, a Sicilian meal of some sort the second day and pizza on the last night. I looked on Google Maps and found that this restaurant was the closest to where I was staying and was also open at 7.30pm, which is around the time I like to eat. On the first night I was the first customer of the evening and ate Tortellini (panna and prosciutto) and a mixed salad plus a Moretti beer. The food was very tasty, the waiting time was not too long and the service was excellent. The background music was tasteful and unobtrusive. All in all, it was a really pleasant evening. Whilst there I noticed that the menu also included local dishes and pizza so I decided to return the next night. For the second evening I chose Cotoletta alla Milanese which came with fresh vegetables, namely caponata, which I had never eaten, a mixed salad and another Moretti. The Cotoletta was similar to Weiner Schnitzel and the caponata reminded me of ratatouille and had, what I can best describe as, a sweet and sour flavour. I enjoyed this meal thoroughly too. On the third and final night I had Pizza Confit and Cassinata as a dessert plus the usual beer. Once again I was pleased with all aspects of the evening. I have found that pizza bases in Sicily tend to be very thin and that it is virtually impossible to pick the slices up and eat them. Here it was no problem as the base was more robust. Previous to Ragusa I was in Rome, Naples, Vibo Valentia, Catania and Syracuse. I preferred the pizza here to any I ate elsewhere in the past two weeks. I cannot recommend this restaurant too highly and it certainly saved me a lot of time searching through Google reviews to find decent places to eat. I am sure you will not be disappointed. I have included menus so you can see the prices.

02/10/2025: We stopped at this restaurant for lunch. The menu caters to everyone, whether you prefer meat or fish. The dishes are simple, beautifully presented, and the portions are generous. The ingredients are fresh. The prices are excellent, and the service is excellent.
