U Zu Peppino In Lipari

06/01/2025: Dinner with friends... the place is very nice and clean, it is located in the historic center of Messina, via Primo Settembre... expectations were high from the reviews read on the web. We ordered skewers of both beef and pork chops, 24 rolls in total for a price of €32. I'm not discussing the price seen on the menu but the size is the taste (in my opinion) the beef ones are very dry.. better are the pork ones which are moister inside... the menu highlights that the rolls are served with salad and chips, (a tuft of songino and lettuce, and about ten potatoes) a platter of excellent quality cured meats and cheeses €16 in my opinion overpriced..pizza with bresaola and rocket (excellent bresaola), excellent tomato, but the dough was a consistent mix which overall I quite liked but didn't convince me.. very friendly and helpful staff, the service was very quick, but at the same time they respected the times between the starters and the rest of the courses, overall (in my opinion) the prices of what we consumed are not related to portion sizes. I don't doubt it, being aware of the management costs and raw materials of a restaurant in the centre.. but this is what I think. However, we will return for the fish which, in the opinion of those who have tried it, is of high quality.

02/01/2025: One of the places where I've ever eaten better, everything was really good and cared for, generous portions, fish really excellent both in flavor and cooking. You won't be disappointed.
