We were greeted warmly. The fresh fish, which we chose grilled, was delicious and cooked to perfection. The staff was incredibly welcoming, even with our little girls. Just steps from the Greek amphitheater and located on a quiet side street, we highly recommend it!

We ate here on New Year’s Day and had one of the best meals in a while. Warm welcome and attentive service from two generations of owners. The food - from the home made bread to the delicious catch of the day - was absolute Sicilian excellence. Highly recommend for a causal dinner of the highest quality while in Taormina.

Using a hockey expression, this restaurant delivered an amazing Hat Trick. The service, presentation and taste were absolutely fantastic. We started with the tuna tatare. Then followed that with the catch of the day cooked Siciliano style.We couldn’t leave without trying the Homemade PannaCotta. This has to have been one of the best fish restaurant I have tried in a very long time. Thank you Salvatore!

Fantastic place located in a picturesque spot on the steps of Taormina, two minutes from the Greek Theater.
Impeccable service and food, truly excellent and attentive staff. Coming to La Tavernetta is a culinary experience not to be missed.
Thanks to Salvatore for a wonderful, unforgettable evening.
