Every time we pass through Noto, we go to Al Buco. Very beautiful place. Typical Sicilian cuisine. It's very good. We are delighted every time. Third generation of owners. Warm welcome. What can I say, it's worth the detour.

Staff were quick, knowledgeable, and seemed caring about our experience. Had the squid ink ravioli and spaghetti com cozze, which were top class. Best pasta we've had in Sicily so far.

We were walking around Noto. We noticed this place and asked if we could have dinner. They were very kind and the starters were exceptional. 5 stars, highly recommended.

The restaurant is in a beautiful location on Noto's main street. The food is excellent and the fish is fresh (we had marinated anchovies as an appetizer, calamarata with swordfish, and grilled fish). The staff is incredibly kind and helpful: we realized late that we needed to change our entree due to allergies, and they were prompt in making changes. They also offer half-bottles of wine (0.375 liters), which is a great option if you don't want to buy a whole bottle. Highly recommended. Well done! Last but not least, the price is super fair—we paid €76 for two for an appetizer and a main course each, with water and wine.

The location is very convenient, on the main street just steps from the Duomo. The waiters are friendly and smiling, and they immediately make you feel at ease.
We had the pasta alla Norma, with a well-mixed sauce and light fried eggplant, and the caponata, prepared with balance and very tasty. The fried dishes—bread and panelle, croquettes, and fried cheese—were all well-executed and flavorful. The deconstructed cannoli was the perfect choice to finish, delicious without being heavy.
All this was accompanied by a local white wine that paired beautifully with the dishes. A simple, welcoming, and pleasant trattoria, where you eat well and feel like you're among friends.

This is my second time stopping for dinner in two summers, and it's always an excellent place to eat well. I recommend it.

Everything was excellent! The staff were friendly and attentive. The calamarata with swordfish and eggplant was a must-try. 🥰

It’s an amazing place to have either lunch or dinner. My family and I had a great experience. The food was delicious, enough variety and most of all, the quality of fish was outstanding. So if you want to have a little taste of Sicilian food, I warmly suggest you to come here!

Locale molto carino, consigliata la prenotazione. Pasta alla norma spaziale! Tagliata di manzo succulenta. Prezzi onesti.

Abbiamo trovato questo posto passeggiando per il centro a Noto: tavoli all’aperto, cucina siciliana e buon rapporto qualità/prezzo. I camerieri molto gentili ed attenti alle richieste, veloci nelle portate, unica pecca..un po’ misere rispetto alle aspettative. Nello specifico: ho preso un’insalata siciliana con pomodori, ricotta salata e olive nere, leggendola nei secondi mi aspettavo una portata tale, invece mi è arrivata una mini porzione da contorno..buonissima, su questo nulla da dire, però ecco forse andrebbe specificato che non è un insalata nel senso tecnico del termine e forse non andrebbe introdotta tra i secondi.
