Hostaria del Faro In Catania

A positive experience, both for the kindness and friendliness of the staff and for the dishes: we had fresh fish, snapper, cooked in "acqua pazza" (crazy water), roasted vegetable sides, and a cutlet with chips, wine, and water. The house desserts were amazing, especially the one with ricotta, pistachio, and limoncello, Trinacria! I highly recommend it.

Near the beach under the lighthouse. Good fish.

Fresh fish. Good value. Friendly owners.

A very original experience not to be missed! Even if you are staying in the center, go a bit out of your way to visit this original fish restaurant for two reasons: the food and the service. Trust me! Thank me later!

Truly an exceptional experience! At Hostaria del Faro, I enjoyed phenomenal fried fish: crispy, light, and with an irresistible seafood aroma—you could tell the fish was incredibly fresh. The service was impeccable, friendly, and attentive to every detail. The atmosphere was welcoming and relaxed, perfect for enjoying a quality lunch or dinner. Highly recommended, I'll definitely be back! 🐟🍋✨

A secluded spot, next to the lighthouse. The owners don't speak English, but they try to communicate with their customers. The food is fresh and delicious, the local wine is good, the prices are reasonable, and the atmosphere is lovely. I highly recommend it.

I've been coming to Faro for 35 years, and it's always a guarantee of freshness, quality, and kindness. Strategic location between the industrial area and the city center, and close to the airport. Parking assistance is always available. The three brothers are incredibly friendly and welcoming! Today they outdid themselves in customer service: I love the gratin mussels, but unfortunately they weren't on the menu. We ordered various raw and cooked appetizers (fantastic), and they arrived with a generous plate of my beloved mussels!!! What can I say, I was moved. Only in Sicily can this happen. Superlative!! Thanks Diego! Highly recommended for business lunches and family occasions. Excellent! From a Milanese who adores Catania and Sicily.

What can I say!! You'll find worse in the center of Catania! I had dinner here and was very satisfied with the dishes they offer, seared tuna with arugula is exceptional, it melts like butter, very fresh!!! The desserts are amazing! Excellent hospitality run by four brothers who are clearly passionate about what they do, if I return to Catania I will definitely be back! Congratulations.

What can I say? TOP quality, excellent fish, delicious desserts, run by a truly talented and friendly family! Only for people who enjoy good food :) Fair price!

Just outside Catania Airport, easy to find and park. The food was excellent, with freshly cooked dishes like the fusilli with eggplant and swordfish, made with excellent ingredients. The place reflects tradition, even in the decor, which is enhanced by unique pieces crafted by one of the owners. The hospitality and customer service are excellent. Both traditional and original dishes, like the tuna with arugula, parmesan, and pink peppercorns—an incredible discovery—and the Trinacria dessert, which immediately makes you realize you're in Sicily. We recommend it.
