I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Catania

05/12/2025: We had a lovely and pleasant evening, with carefully prepared and plentiful dishes and impeccable service. The manager was particularly attentive and thoughtful.

02/12/2025: I celebrated my graduation at Paradise and I couldn't be happier with choosing them to celebrate the most important day of my life. Excellent food, friendly staff, and Sergio, the owner, was always available and active in my planning. I will definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone who wants to celebrate an important event with class and professionalism. 5 stars

11/11/2025: Describing this farmhouse in the Maniace area in a few words would take a book. It's a stone's throw from Nelson Castle and near the Balze waterfalls. The location is splendid. The food is fabulous, but not over the top, though excellent. The cleanliness and courtesy of the wait staff are top notch. The playground for children is excellent, with lots of games and well-kept animals of many species. A truly beautiful place. We'll be back soon.

04/11/2025: We went to this facility for lunch on Sunday, and I must say it's very beautiful and well-maintained. Attention to detail, a lovely trail that takes you to see different animal species. Great outdoor area and a children's playground. The only flaw was the food. Homemade bread was a bit hard, coarse appetizers with vegetables and undercooked potatoes, average first courses, nothing exceptional that would make you ask for seconds, and second courses were a bit small compared to expectations. I have to be honest, I wasn't overly pleased, especially considering the price of lunch.

30/10/2025: Excellent food, refined and never banal. The portions are generous and the fish is incredibly fresh. The fish appetizers are delicious, and the fried fish is delicious! The citrus-flavored fillet is a MUST-TRY. A true delight for the palate! The staff is friendly and helpful. We chatted a bit after the service, and I must say that, in addition to being professional, they are also very friendly. Highly recommended!

27/10/2025: A very nice, quiet, and characteristic place, ideal for eating well and spending a relaxing evening. The owners are pearls of people, very down-to-earth, friendly, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. The place offers mostly fish-based dishes of excellent quality, which are served and prepared excellently, from appetizers to main courses! The selection of wines to pair with the dishes is also excellent, and if you don't know much about them, let their sommelier advise you, he won't disappoint! They serve the same menu also in a gluten-free version, including dessert, which by the way is not to be missed. It's basically a homemade chocolate cake with a little pistachio powder that is something indescribable. I assure you that even if you are full at the end of the meal, it will be impossible to resist it!! To return and return. Thank you very much, it is always a pleasure to come and eat at your place.

08/11/2025: The atmosphere here is just great, the waiter made us feel comfortable and on the last place but most important, pleased by the taste of the food!

25/10/2025: 100% Italian taste, atmosphere, fresh products, service, appropriate portions :))

10/11/2025: A unique experience. Each dish expresses the authentic flavors and aromas of Sicily and Mount Etna—intense, elegant, and perfectly balanced. The cuisine successfully combines tradition and creativity with impeccable attention to every detail. The service is perfect: professional, attentive, and discreet waiters make every guest feel special. A culinary journey between land and sea that will remain in your heart.

05/11/2025: We have just been there last Saturday. We came in to enquire but there was availability so we sat and have one of the most exceptional culinary experience. Thanks to the team who really know what the word hospitality means. The quality of the food and it's standard were out of this world. So greatful that you let us in even we were not really dressed for the occasion as we were travelling light.

01/12/2025: Riposto, CT. Via Camillo Benso Conte Di Cavour, 34. A lovely, welcoming and elegant place. We had dinner there a while ago and had a lovely evening. The dishes they prepared for us were a feast for the eyes and the palate. The portions certainly weren't particularly generous, but they were as you'd expect from a Michelin-starred restaurant.

30/11/2025: Attentive service, nice and well-kept location, good wine list, but I expected something more from the food.

31/10/2025: I may be a little biased due to my friendship with Giuseppe and his entire family, but I can assure you that both the dough (made at least 48 hours) and the mix of flours used are truly excellent. They digest quickly and well (no need to wake up early in the morning), the toppings are always fresh and high-quality (after all, nothing is left in the pantry for the sale they have) and, most importantly (the owner's pride and joy), they are affordable for everyone!

17/10/2025: -ENG- One of the best pizzas I've ever eaten. Super friendly and helpful staff. I'd go back anytime. -ITA- One of the best pizzas I've ever eaten. Super friendly and helpful staff. I'll be back anytime.

17/11/2025: We found a table that Saturday, calling half an hour in advance. The pizzas were very good and delicious, and the atmosphere was clean and relaxing. The wine selection was good. The salted caramel and chocolate dessert was spectacular. The prices were reasonable for a downtown restaurant.

11/11/2025: Very tasty pizza, friendly service - I will definitely come back here!

02/11/2025: Welcoming place, friendly, polite, and welcoming staff. Excellent food quality. It's a place where you feel at home.

02/11/2025: My girlfriend and I visited this very welcoming and simple place, with top-notch food and especially top-notch staff, especially Alessandro, who recommended the meat, which I deemed a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Reluctantly, from now on, when I buy meat or eat it elsewhere, I'll have serious problems with this comparison to Vulcano Etna Pub. Do yourself a favor and go eat there, you won't regret it.

09/10/2025: Quality products beautifully cooked

04/10/2025: Great lunch here on a Saturday afternoon when not many restaurants are open. Portion sizes are large and well priced. Seafood is delicious and cooked with great expertise. We will be back.

07/11/2025: Beautiful location and very kind waiters too ❤️

07/11/2025: I celebrated my 18th birthday at Villa Mirador, and I'd like to share my experience. I chose Sala Roberta for my special day, a room that was impeccable to say the least. The decor, by Orazio Patanè, was also impeccable, and the dishes were perfect and delicious. Special mention goes to one of the owners, Mr. Michele was very helpful throughout the entire preparations, yet the evening was almost completely ruined by terrible entertainment. In fact, the evening could have easily ended at 11:00 if it hadn't been for me, who had planned everything down to the smallest detail. There wasn't even time to clear one dish before another arrived immediately afterward. When I asked both the maître d' and the entertainment staff to slow down, they completely ignored me. In fact, dinner started at 9:40 and ended at 11:00 (a dinner consisting of a buffet, appetizer, two first courses, and one second course). By 11:00, we had already reached or was close to the cake. I would like to point out that even before the birthday party began, I had told the entertainment staff and a gentleman in the dining room that I didn't want the birthday party to go by quickly, yet my request was not granted. I'd like to focus on the entertainment, which, as far as I'm concerned, is a total waste of money. In fact, the first complaint came as soon as I entered the room. A dear friend of mine gave the USB stick with the video to the DJ and the entertainer, and they immediately started systematically complaining about the length of the latter (25 minutes). Subsequently, the discontent continued. In fact, when I asked to slow down, they replied, "Oh, we can't stay here all night," at 10:30. Furthermore, the entertainer wasn't at all involved. I asked for dances from groups of their choice, and the entertainer didn't even bother to show us the dances, assuming we knew them. I don't think this is professional entertainment, or at least at no other 18th birthday party I've been to has it ever been done as ineffectively as at mine. I believe that customers deserve better treatment, since these are all events that I, like all of us, have been waiting for for years or months and the fact that the latter should be ruined by unprofessional people is certainly not ideal, in fact, for the whole evening I felt as if they wanted to send me away, I am sorry to write this review because, as already said, Mr. Michele, the room, the chef etc. were excellent and impeccable in everything, I hope that they can soon improve this aspect as all the others are taken care of down to the smallest details.

16/11/2025: I celebrated my 18th birthday at Casa Modò, well what can I say? A fantastic location, dreamlike, very elegant and trendy, including the recently renovated outdoor area. The staff was highly trained and respectful of the level of the structure. Above all, I really appreciated their professionalism that accompanied me from the beginning until the event led by the director Pappalardo.

28/10/2025: Yesterday I celebrated my son's 18th birthday. What can I say? Congratulations to all the staff at CASA MODO. BUT A SPECIAL THANK YOU GOES TO THE MANAGER, MR. PAPPALARDO, TOGETHER WITH THE MAITRE D'ESIGN, GIOVANNA. VERY PROFESSIONAL, WITH ATTENTION TO EVERYTHING IN DETAIL. I WISH EVERY LOCATION TO FIND TWO PEOPLE LIKE THEM 💯💯💯

20/11/2025: I sat down in this lovely place, with that homey feel that encouraged me to sit down. I had a GREAT time, with competent, knowledgeable service, attentive to my needs and those of the other diners. The house wine was excellent, the quality of the products was excellent (and those in the know notice 👁), and the waiters and kitchen were excellent. Some street artists even played live, making what was already a welcoming place a magical place. Truly, congratulations. Benny

16/11/2025: Very warm welcome in excellent French, welcome bruschetta, hearty, delicious and piping hot pasta, very good local wine, impeccable service, succulent homemade dessert (cannolo), small glass of Passito to finish and very reasonable price.

27/10/2025: Excellent pizza, impeccable service

13/10/2025: What can I say, they never disappoint.

10/11/2025: A positive experience, both for the kindness and friendliness of the staff and for the dishes: we had fresh fish, snapper, cooked in "acqua pazza" (crazy water), roasted vegetable sides, and a cutlet with chips, wine, and water. The house desserts were amazing, especially the one with ricotta, pistachio, and limoncello, Trinacria! I highly recommend it.

07/11/2025: Near the beach under the lighthouse. Good fish.
