Stunning location with a view of Isola Bella, excellent food, and above all, helpful and attentive staff. Special mention for Edoardo, very professional and helpful.
Great place

Really amazing food and more than that, amazing service! Eduardo took great care of us even though we walked in at 5pm for lunch after we arrived in Taormina. Sure, the prices are a bit on the higher end due to this being on a beach, but the views and the food quality are definitely worth it!

Il Gabbiano is a little gem overlooking Isola Bella: an enchanting location, fresh seafood, and friendly service. Ideal for a relaxing lunch or a romantic dinner lulled by the sound of the sea. Prices are in line with the quality and location. Highly recommended!

The view from the restaurant is absolutely amazing – definitely the highlight of our visit! The staff were friendly and professional, which created a pleasant atmosphere. As for the food, unfortunately it didn’t quite meet our expectations. I ordered the steak medium, but it came out a bit overcooked, and the sauce wasn’t very memorable.
Yeah prices are on the higher side compared to other places we’ve tried, so we were hoping for a bit more in terms of flavor. Still, a lovely place to enjoy the scenery and relax ^^

If you are looking for an unforgettable culinary experience, this restaurant is a must. The owner welcomes every guest with warmth and genuine passion, making you feel immediately at home. The dining room staff is attentive, courteous and always available, ready to expertly recommend the dishes of the day or the perfect wine to pair. The menu is a journey through Mediterranean flavors, with very fresh dishes and attention to detail. And then the view... a true marvel! Looking out over Isola Bella at sunset, with a good glass of wine in hand, is an experience that is not easily forgotten. Highly recommended!

The view is spectacular, and the food is delicious, but it's not cheap at all. The meat was delicious, cooked to perfection, although a bit small for the price. The desserts were delicious; I recommend the pistachio semifreddo. The seafood pasta was amazing, as was the fried seafood, cooked to perfection and not greasy.

Posto meraviglioso, terrazza incantevole.
Il personale educatissimo , professionale e adeguatamente presente.
Il cibo non era male ma far pagare 19 euro il bauletto di spada composto da 3 fettine di spada sottilissimo , congelato , che al dettaglio compri la confezione da 600/700 gr 7/8 euro ripieno con un po’ di zucchine tagliate alla julienne e’ veramente esagerato, stessa cosa per la frittura mista che però ne costa 22.
Ok pagare, ma la spesa non è stata ripagata dall’esperienza
