La Trattoria del Marinaio In Messina

The 5 stars speak for themselves; nothing to add!!!!

Excellent restaurant, value for money, impeccable service and excellent, fresh food quality

Good experience at the Trattoria with quality dishes served in a pleasant manner. Medium-high prices.

Great place...excellent food...courtesy and kindness are not lacking! I absolutely recommend it.

Semplice accogliente tipico ristorante Siculo menu a prezzo fisso ogni volta che ci ritorno mi conferma la qualità e quantità del mangiato che è di pesce... Bravi tutti anche il servizio.... Rinnovati gli interni

Really elegant place with top quality food

The fish is not of high quality but not terrible either, let's say commercial fish, nothing special. For the food I gave 3 stars, for example because the stockfish was soft, the swordfish meatballs didn't have a fishy taste due to the addition of too many crumbs in the dough, the peppery mussels had no pepper, they practically looked like they were boiled in tomato and that's it, rolls of nothing, tasteless raw tuna and fake ravioli with very salty salmon. Only because the waiter listed what we were eating did we understand what it was. The thing that leaves most to be desired is the addition of sugar in all the first courses, making the dish inedible and tasteless. Not everyone understands that the addition of sugar serves to adjust the taste, due to the scarcity of the raw material, but in this case it was too much to make the dishes acidic. And don't say that you put it because you put it at home too, because sugar, like flour in pasta with clams, absolutely doesn't go there. It is unacceptable that in a place like this with a fairly satisfactory local name, these tavern tricks are used, it absolutely doesn't work!!! The wine, expensive, but good. For the price, a little excessive for the quality of the products, almost 50 euros per person for a limited flow. I don't think I'll return.

Trattoria with two types of rooms, one traditional, well furnished with good table linens, the other in my opinion, decidedly less tastefully furnished, with blue LED lights and a votive altar complete with a statue of the Madonna in the room . Tastes aren't up for debate anyway. The appetizers, various, are part of the "normality" while the fish-based courses are different. I also had the opportunity to taste the first courses and out of three tastings I must say that two (half paccheri with swordfish and risotto with pumpkin) were pleasant, while for the third of the ravioli I don't even remember how, overcooked and with a truly anonymous. Excellent service, good variety of wines. Overall a 6+ in my humble opinion..

ci ha portato in questo ristorante sul mare un carissimo amico che non rivedevo da moltissimi anni. Un'esperienza di cui gli saremo sempre grati. Su suo suggerimento abbiamo scelto l'opzione "antipasti e primi": tutto rigorosamente e gustosamente a base di pesce. Carrellata di antipasti indimenticabile. Sequenza di primi da commuoversi. Dolci all'altezza! Speriamo di tornarci presto!

Mentre stai mangiando l'antipasto non ti può arrivare il secondo e te lo mettono sul tavolo. Tra l'altro costardelle che vanno mangiate calde. O lo riporti indietro o almeno chiedi scusa.
