Pasticceria Spinella In Catania

The arancini were great, only the ones with pistachios were not to our taste. The thing that turned us off was the toilet. It's worth a visit, and it's right across the street from the park.

It doesn't even begin to compare with Savia. The cartocciate are excellent (for me better than the competing bar) but the rest is average (at least for the hot table). The granita is quite good even if expensive especially if you sit at a table. Now they have also increased the prices of the hot table from €2 to a whopping €2.20 per piece. Paid a whopping €2.20 for a very oily onion, smaller than usual and burnt underneath. I was a fairly regular customer but I really don't think I'll go there again.

Excellent arancini, tasty, crunchy, huge, truly a delight. Especially when compared to the soft and tasteless ones at nearby Savia. The Cipolline are also delicious. Wonderful pastries, cassatelle with the shiniest and softest icing in town. Excellent!

Friendliness and quality, recommended.

Huge, delicious and therefore affordable cannoli.

I don't give 5 stars for a simple and important reason. The arancino or arancina comes with good crunchy breading, the filling made in an old-fashioned way, with the piece of meat rather than the minced meat, excellent taste and proportionate throughout. It has a sin, which unfortunately determines an important component, the cooking of rice. Unfortunately the rice turns out to be mushy and mushy. There are proportions between water and rice to be maintained for the first cooking which determine its success once fried, which would result in the second cooking. It seems that this practice is not taken into consideration. I am a lover of this product and I can confirm that this is the only flaw. I hope they can pay more attention and give the product its due credit. The spring onion was excellent, really good. Thanks anyway

Well executed street food, the arancini are very good. View of the garden but heavy traffic. Unbeatable quality/price ratio.

Excellent products. The service is chaotic: for dessert you have to go one way, for savory food another and for drinks somewhere else. The bathroom was very dirty.

Nel pomeriggio del Primo dell'anno, con Catania affollatissima di turisti e locali, la pasticceria era stracolma sia esternamente che internamente, ma dopo, esserci messi in lista per un tavolo, un Cameriere gentilissimo e professionale ci ha trovato un tavolo in pochi minuti. Pasticceria e salati al top, bevande ottime.

Dolci veramente buoni,cannoli siciliani,dolci al pistacchio favolosi,biscotti vari...tutto ben fatto.si possono prendere a mangiare nella villa bellini !
