Bravissimo! I first saw this restaurant in a video with Chef Giovanni making caponata. I followed his work in that video and have been making my caponata very similar to his.
We're in Ortiga for the week and had a chance to dine here. The outstanding service started with Roberto carried through right the rest of the staff to the end of the evening.

Wow, we loved our meal here! We walked in at 8pm with no reservation and the staff sat us right away. We did the 5 course tasting menu with dessert and it was FANTASTIC — creative, delicious, a lot of “elevated seafood.” Photos don’t do it justice haha. The staff was really attentive and kind, we would love to come back!

Such an amazing meal, and fantastic service. We truly enjoyed being able to dine at Don Camillo on our honeymoon trip.

Everything went as should go in a perfect dinner. Extraordinary good service by the waiter.
A truly excellent dinner, with top-notch staff, friendly but not intrusive. Even the chef was happy to come to our table. A top-notch evening!

Average food, nothing special. Too expensive for what it is; it's clearly geared towards tourists.

As a Syracusan, I can say that Don Camillo is an absolute must-try and one of the city's finest restaurants, a truly excellent, almost Michelin-starred, gastronomic experience.
The cuisine is a tale of the sea and the land. During our lunch (for my birthday), I tasted several iconic dishes, but a special mention goes to the pasta with sea urchins, a dish of great purity, perfectly flavorful, and captivating, capturing the essence of Sicily and the Mediterranean. Each course is thoughtful, precise, and never overdone, using excellent ingredients and impeccable cooking.
The wine list is extraordinary, extensive, and top-notch, with great Italian and international labels, important vintages, and truly impeccable pairings. Here, wine is an integral part of the experience.
Professional, elegant, and attentive service, a refined yet welcoming atmosphere in the heart of Ortigia. Don Camillo is an essential stop in Syracuse for those who love great cuisine and great wine.

We had lunch at this restaurant in the center of Ortigia. The experience was perfect, both in terms of service and food (excellent). The ambiance is very refined and meticulously curated, with the wine display being particularly beautiful. The service was impeccable, and the waiters were extremely kind and attentive to every detail, explaining the entire menu to us. As for the food, it was excellent and in keeping with the rest of the restaurant. Each dish was carefully crafted, prepared with quality ingredients, and each pairing was incredible and never boring. Both the meat and fish menus are excellent. I highly recommend trying this place!
