Pura Vida In Giardini-naxos

Great serving squid in quite crowded outside dining area, dogs are a problem in these instances.

Very tasty and friendly service.

All food reviews are subjective but I would like to think that anyone could appreciate the quality of flavours at this restaurant. As I had lunch and dinner here several times, I also saw other people (Italians) go and thank the chef, just as I did after my first and last meal there. I initially went as they had a different style of menu to all the other places around as you do get tired of the same food being offered. So I had the excellent sushi and the raw fish (tartar and ceviche) appetizersand the sea bass which were all delicious. But what ended up blowing me away was how the simple dish of seafood spaghetti was really the best I have ever had anywhere. There was more seafood than pasta and the sauce was delicious. All I can say is - do yourselves a favour and go try ANY dish at this restaurant.

This is a hidden gem in Giardini Naxos The food and service is exceptional !!! If you are looking for a special unique food experience and you are sick of pizza and pasta you need to try PURA VIDA. Very reasonable prices and run by a husband and wife team that will make you feel so welcomed.

Best restaurant we had in Sicily. The staff is perfect, the food delicious. In short, a great time. I highly recommend.

Cuisine full of flavor, great culinary hope, impeccable service.

Excellent food👌 The menu is not so big, but the quality is very good. We enjoyed sushi California, sushi Mojito, black pasta and semifredo. All that was very tasty. I can highly recommend this restaurant.

Wonderful food, great service, divine octopus, wonderful sushi, we also ordered a fried calamari which was perfect. Thank you very much!

In the short time we were in Taormina Giardini we ate at Pura Vida twice and it was fantastic twice! The dishes are prepared with love and have surprising and pure flavors. A feast for the tongue! The atmosphere is cozy and friendly and the staff ensures that you lack nothing. An address that we highly recommend!

We decided to try the Pura Vida restaurant, located facing the sea in Giardini Naxos, attracted by the numerous positive reviews. We can only confirm that every favorable comment is absolutely deserved. The quality of the food is simply fantastic: each dish is taken care of down to the smallest detail, both from an aesthetic and taste point of view. The management is family-run, and this adds a touch of warmth to the experience. The owners and staff are smiling and professional people, capable of making you feel at home and at the same time guaranteeing impeccable service. The dishes we tried were all excellent. From crispy fried foods accompanied by delicious sauces, to gourmet fish dishes that combined fresh and well-balanced flavours. Every bite was an unforgettable experience. In summary, Pura Vida is a place that is absolutely worth a visit if you are in the area. Perfect for a quality dinner, with a splendid view of the sea and a welcoming atmosphere.
