Ristorante StraVento In Trapani

StraVento is a place that combines the best of traditional Sicilian cuisine with beautifully executed modern touches. The ingredients—especially the fresh fish—remarkably stand out for their quality, and dishes such as busiate, couscous trapanese, and fritto di paranza are clear examples of respect for local flavors. The variety of appetizers and raw dishes is also surprising, as is the creative use of ingredients such as citrus fruits and Mediterranean herbs that add freshness. The service at StraVento makes a truly enjoyable visit: the staff is attentive, professional, always willing to explain the dishes or suggest local wines. Furthermore, the ambiance, with a terrace and sea views, creates an ideal atmosphere for a relaxed dinner; at sunset, the golden light and sea breeze add a lot. In terms of value, many people think the restaurant is a bit more expensive than what you might pay at more basic local trattorias, but the experience justifies it. If you're looking for great food, thoughtful presentation, and a special evening with a view and atmosphere, StraVento is a great choice. Highly recommended if you're in Trapani or along the coastal area.

Food is decent, but the atmosphere is poor. I definitely don’t recommend visiting—there are much better restaurants around.

We had dinner here in the terrasse which was nice with the sea view but a little bit windy in the evening. The service was good, really friendly but they charge 3.5 euros/person for coperto without offering you any extra like the typical Italian restaurant. The food was good but not excellent to explain the price (we find it a little bit expensive for what they offer). But the view was really nice.

For a relaxing and enjoyable dinner, we recommend a table in the restaurant's entrance courtyard. The dishes are excellent and beautifully presented; the Stravento appetizer is delicious and plentiful, and the almond semifreddo with chocolate is also worth a try. The staff is very helpful and professionally accommodates customer requests!

Highly recommended... good food, romantic atmosphere...

A wonderful evening, an excellent dinner featuring the freshest and expertly prepared seafood, accompanied by the sound of the waves crashing on the nearby coast, which the terrace overlooks. The view extends from the nearby Ligny Tower to the entire Trapani coastline. Highly recommended.

A dinner for two to round out your Sicilian holiday. The icing on the cake of a weekend in a stunning city, where we enjoyed delicious dishes and a moonlit dinner. One of our guests ate gluten-free, so the menu was completely adaptable to our dietary needs. Highly recommended.

The restaurant is located in a phenomenal part of the city with a breathtaking view. I must say they have truly top-notch waiters, kind and polite. For my money, the prices are too high with a menu that really has limited choices. In a restaurant like this, I expect a more extensive menu. I hope this review helps this business grow, since I also own one.

The best restaurant in Trapani, hands down. The staff are kind and friendly. We've been back several times in just a few days. Excellent food and a seaside location.

I loved the couscous and their Sicilian cassata. It's superior to any other in terms of service and quality. If you're in Trapani, go there; I went twice in one week. It's much, much better than the others. See you soon!
