ristorante pizzeria il gabbiano In Pianoro

Breathtaking views, good value for money compared to other overpriced restaurants in Taormina. We had a great time and will definitely be back.

The restaurant was recommended by a guide, it is considered one of the best in this place, the view from the restaurant is really beautiful, the staff is friendly and quite active) , the food is ordinary Italian, in general everything is good but it can be better)) not much different from other restaurants in Sicily P.S. forgot to tell about the dessert! ordered: strawberry panna cotta, my son gave it 9 out of 10 a little too much with sugar, pistachio prefa-ordinary ice cream with a rich taste of pistachios. Paid 184€

This is a very good restaurant if you're planning a stop on Isola Bella. It's true that it's a bit on the budget, so I recommend checking prices before you go. However, the service is impeccable: thanks to our wonderful server, Eduardo, who made our experience completely perfect. The food is very good; you'll see in the photos the aranchini, the eggplant and pistachio parmesan ravioli, and the black pasta with lobster and shrimp, as well as a pistachio semi-fredo and a tiramisu.

We ate at the restaurant 3 times in one week. On all occasions exceptional food & service. The local fish dishes are fabulous. Cannot fault our experience at all. Eduardo & the owner super friendly.

If you're in Taormina and looking for a restaurant where the view blends with fine Sicilian cuisine, Il Gabbiano is a must-visit. Situated in an enchanting location overlooking the crystal-clear sea, this restaurant combines elegance, hospitality, and authentic flavors. As soon as you arrive, you're immediately struck by the warm, family atmosphere: the staff is friendly, smiling, and attentive to every detail, without ever being intrusive. The service is punctual and professional, but what truly captivates is the cuisine.

A small terrace overlooking Isola Bella, breathtakingly beautiful. Excellent food, welcoming and knowledgeable staff, ready to satisfy every need. A wonderful experience.

Stunning location with a view of Isola Bella, excellent food, and above all, helpful and attentive staff. Special mention for Edoardo, very professional and helpful. Great place

I had the privilege of enjoying a wonderful experience in a place that to call wonderful would be an understatement. The breathtaking location with a panoramic view. A true corner of paradise, where beauty and tranquility blend harmoniously. The setting is tastefully and refined, a perfect balance between elegance and hospitality. But what truly makes this place special is the quality of the service, characterized by impeccable professionalism and sincere kindness. Special praise goes to Edoardo, an emblematic figure of this place, whose passion for hospitality shines through in every gesture. With grace and precision, Edoardo guided us on a nuanced gastronomic journey, carefully and expertly explaining each dish, highlighting its ingredients, origins, and preparation. His kindness and dedication to caring for his guests make him a precious resource, capable of making everyone feel truly special. The cuisine is a true triumph of flavors, capable of surprising and conquering even the most discerning palates. Each course is carefully conceived, expertly executed, and tastefully presented: a perfect blend of tradition and innovation. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a complete sensory experience, combining beauty, flavor, and authentic hospitality.

Really amazing food and more than that, amazing service! Eduardo took great care of us even though we walked in at 5pm for lunch after we arrived in Taormina. Sure, the prices are a bit on the higher end due to this being on a beach, but the views and the food quality are definitely worth it!
