Osteria di Venere In Erice

Three times! Three times I've been captivated by the magic of this enchanting place, and three times I've left not only satiated, but ecstatic, with a heart full of gratitude for a culinary experience I'd describe as almost mystical. Osteria di Venere is more than just a restaurant in Erice; it's a revelation, a certainty in a world where quality is often a mirage. Whether your soul yearns for the land or yearns for the depths of the sea, here you'll find an offering of such excellence that it will leave you breathless. I still vividly recall, in a cold winter embrace, the pork shanks, a masterpiece of tenderness and flavor that warmed not only the palate, but the very soul. And what about last night's stuffed calamari? A triumph of delicacy and flavor, a perfect balance that dances on your taste buds. But the real jewels, the precious gems that distinguish Osteria di Venere, are the cured meats, both from land and sea. A homemade production that is a hymn to craftsmanship, an ode to passion, a symphony of authentic flavors that will make you close your eyes and sigh with pure pleasure. Traveling friends, if you venture among the ancient stones of Erice, one of the most charming villages in Italy, you cannot, you must not, miss this osteria. Stopping here for dinner is more than just a meal, it's the perfect conclusion to an unforgettable day, a farewell to the sunset that transforms into an embrace of flavors, an indelible memory that you will carry in your heart far beyond the confines of this enchanting place. Osteria di Venere: come, taste, and let yourself be transported!

Excellent dishes prepared with high-quality ingredients, attentive service, and a quaint and charming location in the heart of Erice. Prices are a little above average, and portions aren't particularly generous.

Friendly and professional staff, top-quality food, the red prawn first course simply exquisite, the second courses presented in an original way and equally delicious. A bottle of white wine is also highly recommended. Highly recommended.

Excellent cuisine and local specialties... in a beautiful setting We'll be back

We were there two days in a row. The food was excellent, both in terms of preparation and quality. The caponata was excellent. The gentleman in the dining room, who I believe is also the owner, was friendly and kind.

Everything was delicious and very kind

A restaurant in Erice with exquisite seafood dishes, and a very friendly and professional owner! If you're passing through, don't miss it!

Good restaurant, we tried the pasta and it was ok, not particularly exceptional

Osteria vicino alla chiesa di San Giuliano. Piatti invitanti sia di pesce che di carne. Noi abbiamo mangiato un antipasto misto di pesce ,la mortadella di suino nero con burrata e gli involtini di pesce spada. Tutti i piatti erano ottimi. Servizio veloce. Buon rapporto qualità prezzo.,ho trovato solo un po alto il prezzo del coperto. Lo consiglio. Pablera e signora

Tutto perfetto , personale stupendo e accoglienza fantastica. Menu molto interessante e che sa dare valore alla sua terra. Non ci sono parole per esprimere la qualità della materia prima, della location e del sentimento e passione espresso dal titolare e dalle persone a supporto. Super raccomandato
