Trattoria da Nino In Taormina

Great experience for a charcuterie plate and a drink.

Place to recommend - Generous and fresh dishes - excellent welcome!

I came, with company, to visit Taormina and ended up arriving at the end of the day. We decided that it would be better to eat something before starting the tourist route with CitybySee and we were fortunate to find Trattorua Da Nino. A small and very pleasant place, with friendly and helpful service. We ordered a shrimp cocktail, a shrimp salad and a beef Carpaccio because we wanted something light and quick. The kitchen responded perfectly to our needs. The dishes were simply delicious. We take the opportunity to leave a reservation for dinner and this way we will have the opportunity to enjoy a meal with main dishes. Very recommendable! Please note that reservations are required for dinner.

Fabulous, authentic restaurant. Food was amazing. Especially the local recommended olive oil and pasta.

The food is absolutely amazing, and the ambience truly captures the charm of Sicily. The dishes are crafted with care and offer a delightful taste of local flavors. However, despite the wonderful culinary experience, I cannot give a full 5 stars due to an unfortunate encounter with one of the waitstaff. As the only non-Italian speaker at my table, I kindly asked the waitress to explain the "fish of the day" in English. Her response was surprisingly rude and dismissive, asking me if I was "from the moon." This made me feel extremely uncomfortable, and it left a sour note on an otherwise lovely evening. For me, taking care of your customers is just as important as the food itself. I believe every guest should feel welcomed and respected, regardless of where they are from. As a tourist who loves Sicily, especially Taormina, I hope the management addresses this issue. I understand what linguine and calamari are, but no one should be made to feel lesser for asking a simple question. I sincerely hope this feedback is taken to heart, as I would love to return in the future and have an all-around wonderful experience.

Excellent food, attentive and fast service.

Lovely dinner, so fresh and delicious. Loved the service and the atmosphere. Great owner. Thank you John Luca!

The food is very tasty and the staff is very welcoming and kind! I’ll keep dreaming about my pistachio prawn pasta!

The best evening meal we had during our stay in Taormina. Both food and service were very satisfactory. The only thing that detracted from our experience was being seated on the upper terrace on a very windy night with the plastic shades pulled down and flapping in the wind. It became so uncomforable that we left without ordering dessert or coffee.

An excellent restaurant with local Sicilian cuisine. We had vegetable based starters and fish dishes, and quality and taste were excellent Absolutely recommend
