Ristorante/Pizzeria L'Ancora Di Musumeci Salvatore In Ragusa

Probably the best restaurant in the vicinity

We really wanted to like this restaurant. Unfortunately we went twice and weren’t convinced. It’s one of the only ‘upscale’ fish restaurant near the beach, but it’s simply way overpriced for the quality of the food. I wished we had taken pictures of both the grilled mix seafood and the frittura mista. Not only the portions were little but the quality and freshness really left to be desired. Same for two typical dishes of pasta. We had so many of those exact dishes in other restaurants during our holidays in Sicily, and there it was a big big miss. The service was nice and attentive. The view is beautiful and the restaurant clean/well kept. As we went both times for lunch, we didn’t try the pizzas.

I was hoping for better from the reviews. I can't say I had a bad meal, but it was definitely too expensive for the quality of the food: €19 for a seafood platter, the same price for a mixed fry. They were well-made, but in my opinion, not worth it. We didn't try the pizza, and perhaps we were wrong because it looked very inviting. Since they didn't offer house wine (which we found strange in that type of place), we opted for a glass: two fingers of white wine for €5. The alternative was bottles—if I'm not mistaken—for €26, a situation that left me a little unhappy. The service was attentive and courteous, but the atmosphere was a bit stuck in the '80s; perhaps they could reconsider. We'll definitely return for a pizza, a beer, and maybe a second opinion.

We spent a wonderful evening at this family restaurant. We ate excellent quality fish, cooked to perfection, and the staff were very kind and friendly. We'll definitely be back! Highly recommended.

Super, everything ok, 5 stars deserved, the swordfish is the best especially

The food was very good. We had the seafood salad as an appetizer, followed by pasta with vongole and seafood risotto. Delicious.

If you are looking for a corner of paradise where taste meets the beauty of nature, L’Ancora di Cava d’Aliga is the perfect destination. This enchanting restaurant, directly overlooking the sea, offers a unique culinary and sensory experience, enhanced by one of the most evocative sunsets on the Sicilian coast. As soon as you sit down, you are enveloped by the sea breeze and the relaxing sound of the waves, while the sky is tinged with golden and pink shades. The atmosphere is romantic and welcoming, perfect for a dinner for two or a special evening with friends. But the real protagonist is chef Angelo, a master of the culinary art who manages to transform every dish into a masterpiece of taste and creativity. His cuisine is a tribute to Sicilian tradition, revisited with contemporary touches and very fresh ingredients, often coming directly from the sea that is right before your eyes. We tasted exquisite dishes, cared for down to the smallest details: every bite was a journey through authentic flavors and perfect harmonies. From the delicacy of the appetizers to the richness of the fish first courses, to the artisanal desserts, everything was impeccable. The service is friendly and attentive, without ever being intrusive, and contributes to making the experience even more pleasant. L’Ancora di Cava d’Aliga is not just a restaurant, but an emotion that remains in the heart. A place where good food, the view of the sea and the passion of the chef come together in an unforgettable evening.

Great service! Really friendly waitress who takes the time at your table to explain the menu and immediately came with an english menu when she realised we did not speak italian. If you are in cava d'aliga i can definitely recommend going here for a meal with a great view of the ocean.

After a swim on my beach opposite, a short walk and passage with stairs to go up to town 3 minutes on foot overlooking the sea. Super good restaurant, pleasant waitress speaking French, for us. Excellent meal 👍. At the top

Exquisite lunch, excellent food, well cooked and above all plentiful. Courteous room service. Very clean environment. It's your first time going there but I will happily return as soon as possible. Highly recommended
