01/11/2025: Towards the end of October, about twenty elderly former classmates, 58 years after our high school graduation exams as chemical engineers, gathered for a delightful convivial gathering at the L'Opera restaurant in Licata. A clean, bright, and welcoming family-run establishment, we ordered a seafood lunch. Elena, the beating heart of this small restaurant, was extraordinary in her hospitality and kindness. She welcomed her guests with a classic aperitif featuring an olive and a small triangle of Margherita pizza. Nine appetizers then gave free rein to the imagination, creativity, skill, and professionalism of the chef, who then delighted us with two simple yet remarkably flavorful and satisfying first courses: a rich seafood risotto and trofie with swordfish, shrimp, and eggplant. All washed down with a good local white wine. No bread, just pizza schiacciata with excellent olive oil and oregano. Then, sorbet, dessert, coffee, and amaro for everyone. The price? The perfect balance between quality and friendliness. We recommend it.
24/10/2025: Very pleasant welcome, attentive and helpful service.
The risotto, sea bream fillets, and grilled squid were excellent.
The wine, dessert, and after-dinner coffee were all perfect. A great place to revisit before leaving Licata.
