Ristorante Il Barocco In Ragusa

01/03/2026: A small restaurant in lower Modica, nestled in the side streets. The vintage, old-fashioned setting is charming. The food is excellent in its various options. The place is clean and welcoming. After a few years, I returned and was very disappointed. Meanwhile, the menu has been reduced to a limited selection of appetizers, and half-and-half first and second courses have disappeared. Appetizers are served on a single plate, with one piece of everything, like goldsmith's shop... a plate with four ravioli and about twenty cavati, even though the sauce was good. The boiled meat was enough to throw against the wall to play ball. The meat in the sauce was quite good. Then I saw the waitress take the quarter-liter bottles of wine and fill them almost secretly from a cardboard jug, passing it off as local wine. Drinks, desserts, and coffee were not included. In short, make your appointment and go to sleep... but for me, that's not the case. Poor.

18/02/2026: A very typical restaurant, not very beautiful, and prices are high compared to other nearby places. Very touristy and often crowded. The typical appetizer is expensive but decent, without any real specialties. Try the "Lolli con le fave," made in the old-fashioned way. The meats are good, but the portions are sometimes on the small side. Good service.
