Da Antonio In Catania

We stopped in on the evening of a tiring day of traveling. My friend recommended it. He had been here for 10 years. Impeccable service, perfect food, sophisticated decor, wide and quality wine selection. This is such a perfect day. Today we only ate good food and in good places. But the crown was placed here. We left smiling and satisfied. Five stars. We will be back tomorrow.

Super delicious food, highly recommended!

Nice little place right by the castle in the center of Catania. We went for dinner based on the recommendations I found on TripAdvisor. No language barrier whatsoever and good food. We started with bruschetta, a dish that was not on the menu but which they managed to whip up for us anyway. Delicious! We also had an appetizer listed as "raw and mozzarella" that turned out to be cured ham and fresh mozzarella. Also good and plentiful for an appetizer. I went with our waiter's recommendation and had their pappardelle pasta with seafood. They heaped a nice pile of squid, shrimp, clams and mussels on a pile of wide noodles and topped the plate with tomato sauce. The seafood was delicious but I think Italians have a differing opinion on how pasta should be cooked as I've found it a bit tough each time I've ordered it on this trip. This meal was no exception. It's their country and their cuisine so I suppose the right answer is to either adapt to their cooking, order differently or go home. The seafood was exceptionally good and tasted so fresh that I knew it was the right choice as soon as I unwrapped my meal...that's right, it showed up all wrapped up in aluminum foil and piping hot. We walked across the street for gelato after dinner...but that's another review.

We really recommend this place, the pasta alla trapanese was delicious, the ambient was very nice and relaxing

Great food, nice and helpful staff!

The best pasta ever! Great wine Great service Fantastic atmosphere!

A magnificent restaurant, excellent service, and exquisite dishes, accompanied by good wine. Highly recommended.

A classic Italian restaurant with a lot of heart and a family atmosphere. From the moment you step inside, you feel welcome and well taken care of, just as you would expect in a true trattoria. The food was excellent: freshly prepared, authentic in taste, and made with high-quality ingredients. The pasta and pizza dishes, in particular, impressed with their simplicity and intense, honest flavor. The service was friendly, attentive, and very warm without being intrusive. Overall, a thoroughly enjoyable visit in a relaxed, Italian atmosphere.

Local trattoria. Excellent pasta. Wide selection of wines. Good value for money.

A wonderful place. The staff are positive, friendly, and helpful. The food was exquisite, very fresh, and delicious.
