Perhaps the best restaurant in Trapani. A beautiful environment, furnished with care and warmth in the historic center, a few steps from the port. Competent and attentive staff. The dishes are a joy for the palate. All top quality ingredients, including fish and shellfish. Traditional dishes, updated with grace and wisdom. The fish couscous with fried courgettes and Trapani-style pesto cream is excellent. The bruschetta with sea urchins are unforgettable. Also worth mentioning is a very delicate and tasty seafood caponata, excellently balanced. The desserts are also good. Highly recommended

We tried here after reading the Google reviews. The place as a whole is stunning and very romantic. It's a cave/cellar type feel which is dimly lit, music playing, it was really busy full of others dining and in general a lovely restaurant. The food was also stunning. Lots of seafood and wine to choose from. My favourite dish was the Squid stuffed with Aubergine cream it was utterly stunning and a must if you are coming to visit. I would recommend here you won't be disappointed.

Vito Lamia is a very good chef and very rich in humanity. Super lover of the sea from his childhood spent in Porto Ostuna. We tasted with immense joy the cassatelle filled with ricotta and cooked in an exquisite fish broth with top marks.
On Sunday we tasted:
Busiata with red prawn and
Vastedda del Belice
Ingredients: busiate, tomato, garlic, parsley, salt, black pepper, red prawn,
VASTEDDA DEL BELICE;
Squid stuffed with cream
artichokes

Exceptional dishes, which we will never forget and which will make us return next year.
VITO YOU ARE GREAT

We had dinner on 28 Dec in this restaurant with my family. Definitely positive experience. Attentive and present service. The 360 degree satisfied gaze... location, service and courses... nothing seems out of place but finely studied. And the flavours... balanced and never banal to convey the quality of the raw material. Definitely a nice experience. Thank you.

Lunch on 15 December 2024, with two dear friends in the historic center of Trapani. Booked for four, a few days in advance at the Archi di San Carlo. Here I found the welcome perfect, a sober, well-kept, well-lit environment. The service at the tables was attentive and always accompanied by broad smiles. Attentive assistance in choosing wines as well as suggesting off-menu items. Normally the waiting times for the careful and careful preparation of the dishes are not very numerous, but I consider this an advantage. The ingredients, all of the highest quality including the delicious desserts, made lunch a very pleasant experience. Having verified the high quality of the experience, I consider the value for money to be excellent. Highly recommended.
