I returned to this place after many years and rediscovered the flavors of yesteryear. Truly good food, served beautifully and with kindness from the owners. The seafood pasta is a guarantee. Super good! Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience at Catania Ruffiana!
We went for dinner yesterday and immediately felt at home. The waiters and waitresses were exceptional, always smiling, kind, and super helpful. The place was spotless and very welcoming.
The fish appetizer was spectacular, fresh, and full of flavor.
The pasta with almonds and fish… pure poetry, truly divine!
The mixed fried fish was also excellent: crispy, light, and not at all greasy.
The wine by the glass? Truly excellent!
The prices were more than fair for the high quality of the dishes.
A true gem in Catania, we recommend it without a doubt and can't wait to return.

I returned to this restaurant to celebrate a birthday, and I must say it proved to be a great place to enjoy excellent seafood and more.
The appetizers were truly delicious, well worth trying and starting your meal.
The fish is fresh and high-quality, and these characteristics are also reflected in the excellent first courses.
The location is welcoming and modern, yet with meticulous attention to detail.
The service was excellent, even though we had a large table and the restaurant was packed. Everyone was very friendly, and nothing was ever missing.
Overall, a truly excellent experience!

We had lunch here and everything was excellent. The antipasti were absolutely delicious, full of fresh and authentic flavors, and the seafood pasta was perfectly cooked and very tasty. Great quality ingredients, generous portions, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. A wonderful place to enjoy real Sicilian cuisine, highly recommended.

A very casual, vintage trattoria where I ate reasonably well, without spending a fortune. Very friendly staff. Fast service.

Siamo stati da Catania Ruffiana per una cena di famiglia.
Come sempre abbiamo mangiato benissimo.
Eravamo in 8 persone e abbiamo preso gli antipasti per tutti
(Erano 5 portate ma ci hanno omaggiato anche un sesto antipasto)
Successivamente abbiamo ordinato 5 primi da dividere.
Tutto perfetto
Ritorneremo

Sono andato con mia moglie. Esperienza molto positiva. Abbiamo mangiato benissimo. Il servizio è stato buono e cordiale. Vi consiglio tantissimo di provare la pasta fresca con i funghi è strepitosa si sente che cucinano con passione. Mia moglie ha preferito mangiare un tonno morbidissimo e gustoso. L'ambiente e un po' retrò
