Polpetteria In Catania

La Polpetteria di Catania is much more than a simple restaurant: it is a journey into the authentic flavors of Sicily, enriched with a touch of elegance and innovation. Perfect for a romantic dinner, an evening with friends or simply to pamper yourself with unique delicacies.

The food is quite good, but everything else really leaves something to be desired. As soon as we sat down, one of the chairs made a less than reassuring noise and, in general, they seemed rather unstable. We ordered three beers and only two arrived: the third appeared later, "forgotten" due to too much foam, according to the waiter. The service was entrusted to a single waiter-all-rounder who, unfortunately, was unable to manage anything efficiently. The bread arrived after half an hour and only after many requests. At a certain point, we witnessed a surreal scene: the waiter took a still half-full glass from another table, causing (rightly) complaints from the customer. The kitchen forgot one of the five meatballs included in the mixed sauce, which was only brought to us after twenty minutes. In the sauce of the meatballs with ragù we found a bone, a detail that is certainly not the best. Finally, one of the waiters - who wasn't even taking orders - was wearing overalls, decidedly out of place clothing for those who work in the dining room. Better to spend less and eat better in via Plebiscito.

Meatballs: excellent. Mixed fried appetizer: sufficient. Decomposed cannoli: excellent in taste. Beer: excellent. All in all a place to recommend. Only the waiting times were slightly long. Well done.

beautiful place and in an excellent point of Catania. excellent table service. helpful and very kind waiters especially the waiter named Mattia. very good and quality food. I recommend it to everyone

A memorable experience in Catania. We recommend that you ask for the wine list: he’s the boss! And the visit to the cellar! In addition to the magnificent wines at a budget adapted to everyone, the dishes are very good and the welcome is very friendly. Go there with your eyes closed!

Best combination food and wine!

Very kind service! The polpette is fantastic, great flavors. I can only recommend it to everyone.

I went back a few years later, everything was absolutely good but compared to a few years ago it seemed less tasty

Piatti tipici Catanesi, Pizza con impasto molto buono e piena di ingredienti, dolci fatti in casa buonissimi, ottimo.

Locale caratteritico, accogliente e pulito in ogni dove. Come dice il nome, polpette cucinate in qualsiasi modo, noi abbiamo fatto un assaggio di misto carne e misto vegano, entrambi ottime. Anche i dolci sono speciali.
