A quiet, low-key dinner at Trattoria Al Cancellatto, a great place just outside the touristy center of town.
We started with bruschette with codfish mousse, baked caciocavallo cheese, and gnocchi.
For main courses, grilled sea bass; veal rolls with prosciutto, cheese & pistachio; and a hamburger with oven roasted potatoes.
Both the food and service were very good!

I ordered the Primi Piatti di Terra - Fresh pasta with ground sausage, peppers, ricotta, and mint. This was our favorite dish of all, and I came back the next night to order it again. I also ordered the Sweet and Sour Trio (red pumpkin, caponata, peppers), Caciocavallo all/Argentiera, Fresh pasta with cream of zucchini and pine nuts, lemon zest, and sautéed bacon, and gelato for dessert. Really enjoyed everything. Great food, service, and atmosphere.

The food was FANTASTIC! We had a pasta with sausage (in a white "sauce") and the pasta with octopus. Salad caprice appetizer. Everything was DELICIOUS!! Very homey atmosphere, so if you're looking for fine dining, this isn't the place. The couple that ran the place were genuine and warm. LOVED IT!!!!!! We got a bottle of wine, too

I went to this trattoria for lunch because my friend from Palermo recommended it: the welcome was sublime, the food truly excellent (the caponata, cacio alla argentiera, and octopus ragù were a must-try). What can I say, thank you!

Ambiente casalingo e curato, La proprietaria e’ molto gentile e così anche il cameriere. Varietà di scelta nel
Menù. Piatti abbondanti e molto saporiti. Buon rapporto qualità/presso. Specialità siciliane. Vale la pena

A distanza di qualche anno siamo tornati in questa trattoria con dei nostri amici. L'ambiente è sempre caldo ed amichevole ed i piatti, nella loro semplicità, sono ben preparati e gustosi. Soprattutto gli antipasti meritano di essere assaggiati. Il prezzo è nella media.
