Me Cumpari Turiddu In Catania

Nice place, good food, very friendly staff. I recommend the Donkey stew, very soft!

Fantastic venue, impeccable food and top-notch service. An absolute guarantee.

Cozy environment. Discreet and kind staff. Professional service. Fine dishes and good wine. Overall I recommend it.

We had a fantastic meal. Traditional & fresh using seasonal ingredients. Good portions and an all Sicilian wine list. The proud owner was present making sure all was well & eager to get feedback. Apparently Stanley Tucci has visited as part of his TV show which has increased traffic. Cumpari has been in Catania for 15 years so is well established. Visit it's great.

Located in the heart of Catania, this restaurant is an absolute gem. The interior is wonderfully cozy, blending traditional architectural elements with local touches that create a warm and inviting atmosphere—I truly loved it. The service was outstanding: professional, attentive, and knowledgeable. The staff not only took great care of us but also explained the origins of the local, high-quality ingredients used in their dishes, many of which align with the slow food philosophy. We had an excellent dinner (see the photos!), complemented by a great wine selection. We chose a simple Nero d’Avola, which turned out to be absolutely delicious. I’d highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for some of the best traditional Catanese dishes in the area. A must-visit!

We walked into this restaurant to have dinner and were greeted by many waiters who seated us on a table next to the kitchen door. The food and service were both wonderful and enjoyed the meal there.

Elegant restaurant, excellent service and very good dishes. I was amazed by the dessert, namely the couscous! Extraordinary

In the center of Catania, I've wanted to try this restaurant for a long time, elegant and refined with attentive and kind staff. We found everything excellent, good, the first courses excellent, the meat was the only downside, the dishes that day arrived lukewarm despite the few people present in the room, which was a shame because it would have been a perfect experience.

The place aesthetically appears welcoming and well-kept... while I'm not completely satisfied with the quality of the dishes... the starters and spaghetti turiddu weren't exactly bad, while the second course (the spatula rolls) didn't meet my tastes at all .. there was little fish, almost all bread, and it tasted like it was defrosted... the waiter who served us at the table was rather rude and unkind... overall a decent experience

Very nice and typical place, excellent food and very kind staff! Finally a nice gastronomic experience. Compliments! Until next time
