A true gem in the lower part of the village, just a few meters from the sea and the pebble beach. The food is a delight for the taste buds; you'll never want to leave the table. All the freshest local fish is served with kindness by the owner Aldo's sons, who are also extremely hospitable and knowledgeable in explaining the dishes. The wine list is varied, featuring Sicilian products to suit all budgets. If you're near the village, stop here for an experience you won't soon forget.

On the recommendation of a local, we opted for this restaurant... a beautiful, simply furnished room that adds warmth to the atmosphere, and a small outdoor terrace. Friendly and helpful service... Tagliatelle with cherry tomatoes, shrimp, and eggplant (very delicate), a good seafood appetizer, and a grilled dish (delicious sea bass), shrimp, swordfish roll, and grilled vegetables... We were very satisfied!

A charming, rustic restaurant just steps from the sea in Castel di Tusa. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Fresh fish. Good value. We'll be back if we have the opportunity.

Not ideal for vegetarians, but upon request, they did offer spaghetti aglio e olio. It was quite tasty. Otherwise, the portions were unfortunately a bit small.

A good restaurant for seafood. The portions aren't generous, but the quality/price ratio is more than adequate.
The owner is a "guy" who, in some cases, uses expressions that might be offensive to some customers, but which are not intended to be offensive.

Grotta Marina has become an institution in the small town of Marina di Tusa, a quaint family-run restaurant that has remained a safe haven for both regulars and occasional visitors over the years.
Fresh fish cooked simply and deliciously, using the highest-quality local ingredients.
