ristorante il Carretto In Cefalù

I visited this restaurant intrigued by its participation in the "4 Ristoranti" program. The atmosphere is welcoming, but unfortunately, the dining experience didn't live up to expectations. ​I ordered seafood salad and mixed fried fish, which I found subdued: the flavors weren't well-balanced and lacked the "zing" you'd expect from fresh fish. The first course, "Lo Special," also didn't convince me: the pasta wasn't quite right, and the sauce wasn't very strong. ​I'm disappointed because there's potential, but in my opinion, the cuisine needs more attention to live up to the restaurant's reputation. Friendly service.

A very welcoming restaurant serving traditional Sicilian cuisine. Attentive service, generous portions, and excellent value.

Thanks to Borghese's show, we tried it today for lunch... everything was fantastic. Well done!

Thoroughly enjoyed this restaurant, Marco the server was always one step ahead. Amazing service incredible food.

Well done. Excellent restaurant. Very fresh fish. Congratulations.

Delicious and generous dishes, friendly staff and beautiful decorations. Our favourite dishes were the steak and busiata pasta!

A hidden gem. Easy stroll from the cathedral. Authentic Sicilian meals, generous portions. Friendly and knowledgeable front staff. Highly recommended.

We stumbled upon this restaurant by chance. We walked in and the atmosphere, the welcome, and the well-prepared food made us realize we were in the right place!

If you're craving delicious fish with good wine in a charming setting, this is the place!

An unexpected, beautiful, and welcoming place, decorated for the Christmas holidays to ensure a warmer welcome for its customers. Very traditional and worthy of its name. Very clean, the staff is excellent, including chef Jessica, who deserves enormous praise for demonstrating the utmost professionalism in preparing unique local delicacies. The appetizer was truly delicious and unique; my family and I were truly delighted. The first course was fresh pasta with pistachio pesto, almond flakes, cherry tomatoes, and local manzancolle, which deserves more than five stars. The waitress, Valeria, was very professional and cheerful in recommending the best the place had to offer. Finally, I thank Mr. Tommaso, the owner of the place, who was very helpful in providing the best hospitality. I recommend anyone who reads and shares my review to experience the high quality of the cuisine and hospitality.
