Very good restaurant, with a magnificent view, very fresh ingredients... a slightly excessive price but the view comes at a price too... and you sometimes have to put up with noisy neighbors (Italians).

An exceptional raw seafood platter, incredibly fresh and of the highest quality, accompanied by an enchanting view of Isola Bella.
The croaker and fish soup were truly delicious, with balanced and well-executed flavors.
The service was friendly, courteous, and always attentive, making the experience even more enjoyable.
Highly recommended.

A restaurant with a breathtaking view of Isola Bella. The location is already stunning, but the hospitality of the owners and waiters makes it even more enjoyable. Excellent first and second courses. A wide selection of wines and very good desserts. I highly recommend it!

My husband learned about this restaurant thanks to @f_panella's BEST WEEKEND show, filmed in Taormina. He fell in love with table 26, where Francesco Panella had lunch with the three contestants, so he surprised me by booking a table for our 39th wedding anniversary.
Il Gabbiano Restaurant has a fabulous location with a terrace overlooking Isola Bella... simply enchanting.
But beyond the postcard-perfect location, the food at Il Gabbiano Restaurant is excellent.
The octopus, arancini, caponata, and tuna are all must-tries. I was also lucky enough to order an extraordinary off-menu dish: spaghetti with crab, which I'll never forget.
Impeccable service 👏👏👏

I saw Francesco Panella's TV show featuring this restaurant...
I must say that when I visited them in person, I was greeted with hospitality, professionalism, and kindness from all the staff.
Today, my wedding anniversary, we were pampered and served with excellent service.
We had lunch on a very romantic and charming terrace overlooking the sea of Giardini Naxos, facing Isola Bella!
Thank you for the wonderful day we spent with you.
Highly recommended ❤️

Restaurant with a terrace overlooking Isola Bella. The menu is primarily seafood, but meat and vegetarian options are also available. The dishes are beautifully presented. Prices are in line with similarly priced restaurants in Taormina. Recommended.

A nice retreat just above the beach directly looking on Isola Bella. Try the mixed seafood and a glass of Etna white wine, and then just relax and breathe in the atmosphere
