18/11/2025: What a spectacle.
Absolutely family-run, and you truly feel like you're part of the family, from A to Z. A small, intimate place with a myriad of wines of all kinds, from local to more refined and obviously more expensive ones. The food is excellent; they only offer "aperitivos," but they're quite filling. Since there were two of us, we ordered the medium-sized one, which was more than adequate, and I also wanted to try their sandwich (upon request) with top-notch mortadella, olives, and sun-dried tomatoes. What can I say, everything was fantastic! We tried three different glasses of wine, mostly local, each one better than the last. We enjoyed it so much that we even bought a small selection of typical Sicilian products, from nougat to almond paste.
The owners are extremely friendly and down-to-earth! The tables are tiny, but perfect for a quick bite and a good glass of wine! Availability, friendliness, kindness, deliciousness, a wide selection of products, and a family atmosphere make this little boutique a jewel from another era. Here, we experienced the true Sicilian spirit and warmth that distinguishes us. They delighted us so much that they even gave us a significant discount and a much-appreciated gift. I'd like to thank the owners again, who are top-notch. Thank you, you made us feel like family. Highly recommended! N.B.: They also offer shipping. Thank you, thank you, thank you, and long live you.
18/11/2025: This place is simply perfect! A gem at the foot of Mount Etna, the ideal spot to sample all the wines of the region or of Sicily, but not only wines, also amaros, marsalas, and various liqueurs. Pippo is fantastic! He served us incredibly well—funny, friendly, informative—and prepared several paninis for us, as well as cheese and salumi platters. After tasting several (many) wines, we bought bottles for a friend's wedding, and he even gave me a bottle as a gift. I truly felt like I was at an uncle's house, someone who goes out of their way to make you feel at home, and to show you that Sicily, that Catania, is a wonderful place. Thank you so much, Pippo, for everything. I'll be back, I know it. Note: Although we spent €30 per person, we ate and drank like kings.
