When you arrive in a place you are struck by the location, the historical characteristics of the place permeated by history with objects typical of the territory.
In one word "enter and feel at home"
The chef welcomes us with a smile
The son shows us to our table
There are eight of us and I note with satisfaction that he was already ready to wait for us
We choose a Cristo di Campobello for white wine (excellent) and are delighted by the freshly fried fish starters
Next we take seafood carbonara, seafood risotto, clams with turnip greens
For the second course, excellent grilled red snapper, freshly filleted
Followed by almond paffet, cassata (excellent)
For what we ate, very fresh and delicious, the bill was more than fair

Ottima cena come sempre in questo ristorante con una cucina sia tradizionale che di inventiva con prodotti freschi del territorio. Antipasto fantasia di mare, spaghetti carbonara con bottarga, piatto speciale per gusto e ingredienti, risotto alla marinara di grande sapore,tagliata di tonno di ottimo gusto,il tutto ben servito e sicuramente ci rivedrà nei viaggi nella mia valle dei templi.

We waited for this restaurant to reopen after vacation because the menu seemed interesting. Very satisfied with the starter: fantasy of the sea (apart from the fish carpaccio which was very watery). The pistachio bar, on the other hand, was quite disappointing. Beautiful presentation, fish in wallet with crushed pistachios. But the fish flesh is not very soft and the pistachios add nothing in terms of flavor. And even though the restaurant had just reopened, there was no longer the dessert I wanted. As for the service, between the waiter who seemed to carry all the misery of the world on his shoulders, the chef who gave all his attention to local customers and the waitress who was frankly unfriendly, nothing that makes you want to repeat the experience.

The restaurant is in the middle of Agrigento and the place is beautiful. I ordered caponata and salad to share and the plates were really small. Then I ordered some spaghetti with clams and it was really good. The service is what should improve. They are slow and not very friendly, but in general it is good

5/5 in everything!! the starter with the fish was so simple and yet so tastefull ( could have been at a lower price comparing in quantity). We tried the pasta alle vongole, the one with the mussels but the star-plate was the shrimp pistacchio spaghetti. I cound never imagine shrimp with pistacchio (maybe sicilian cuisine combines lost of dishes with different nuts) it was truly a 5/5 exprerience, a quiet place in a back alley, very romantic! the wine list is great, but also the staff was very kind, helpfull, and elegant with their moves! comparing to other places this city has to offer, which are ver disappointing, this one stands out and deserves the 4.5 on google reviews. mind you it is not a 10 euro per person, but it is an elegant restaurant with great menu and service. well done!!

Went here for dinner due to the good reviews but were very disappointed with the food.
We ordered "fantasia di mare" as an appetizer and as mains the "carbonara di mare e bottarga" and "zuppa dello chef".
The service was friendly and the food was served quickly.
The quality of the appetizer was good, but the carbonara was way oversalted, and the soup with the catch of the day seemed very simple flavor-wise (tomato soup with broken pasta).
As foreigners with almost no Italian knowledge there was a language barrier with the waiter speaking also almost no English and we didn't know that they only served wine or water as drinks. Complimentary bread was nice though.
Our visit was only okay and we would not return again, sadly.

Bon restaurant, nous avons opté pour des pâtes, les pâtes végétariennes étaient très bonnes, mais les carbonaras aux poissons étaient trop salées et décevantes…
