La Macina In San marco d'alunzio

A very large group of us dined here in October before my son’s wedding in Sicily. What a fantastic experience!!! The atmosphere, the staff and the food were all amazing. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting San Marco D’Alunzio.

I tasted and really enjoyed all the dishes, from appetizers to dessert. Highly recommended.

Hospitality makes all the difference. The owner, Mr. Pippo, welcomed us into his "home" with warmth and affection. We stopped at the appetizers and couldn't go any further simply because the variety and quality had already left us feeling full and satisfied. We'll be back to try the other house specialties. Highly recommended.

A family-run restaurant with excellent food, no menu. The host spent about an hour talking with us, including about his cooking philosophy. During that time, the waiters served a dozen or so appetizers, from traditional dishes like caponatta and pecorino to their own recipes, like pistachio bread in pumpkin sauce. The main course was pasta with eggplant and nettles; we couldn't stomach anything more. We also had good wine and dessert. It will be a memory we'll remember for a long time.

This restaurant offers interesting, different dishes from the usual Nebrodi tradition. The location is spacious, and the staff is welcoming and professional. The only drawback, which unfortunately weighs heavily, is the price-quality ratio compared to other places in the area. For the quantity and quality of what we ate and drank, €50 per person is, in our opinion, a bit high compared to the €30-35 you'll find at other places. Recommended if you want to try different dishes, but not for Nebrodi specialties.

A warm, homely inn, with a host who welcomes and assists us like a caring host. A menu expertly concealed, neither in writing nor via a QR code, immerses us in a continuous discovery of appetizers, amidst the warm colors of each local vegetable and the intense flavors of each aromatic herb that fills the air. Next comes the heart of the Nebrodi mountains, on a bed of green lamb's lettuce and sweet cherry tomatoes, followed by tender slices of black pork. Topping it all off is the freshness of a blancmange tart embellished with cinnamon and caramel. Key words: tradition, balance, delicacy, and refinement. Everything perfectly in line with the expectations of the imperative that greets us on the steps at the entrance: "Acta non verba." See you next time!

I've been looking for this place all my vacation! If you want to eat 100% Sicilian food, I recommend this place. The food is extremely tasty, the owner is extremely friendly, and his nephew Angelo is very nice. I recommend the Sicilian antipasti from La Macina, and the Gello di Limone dessert with strawberry jam is one of my favorites. You definitely have to try it.

In this place we enjoyed uniqueness, Sicilian cuisine at home! Everything impeccable! The extraordinary taste, a combination of the aromas of vegetables, meat and cooking with soul! Words are superfluous to express the entire experience! I invite anyone who arrives in Sicily to go up here! In addition to a superb meal, there is also an extraordinary view!

Great experience and especially Mr. Pippo and his son were super! We had a great New Year's Eve!

I highly recommend this restaurant. The food is truly delicious. Mr. Pippo is a truly exceptional person, ready to offer advice and accommodate your requests. I highly recommend their nettle pasta. If you're in San Marco D'Alunzio, definitely go there.
