25/05/2026: As a Palermitan, I'm obsessed with Messina's rotisserie... Big Ben is a must-try. The Pidoni are DELICIOUS, delicious, with excellent toppings. The arancini are exceptional, with a spectacular sauce. The fried food is incredibly crispy. Everything is delicious. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to try typical Messina rotisserie. The place is clean and welcoming, and everyone is very friendly. 5 out of 5

12/08/2026: Don't listen to the FAKE negative reviews! I've been coming to this osteria for 25 years, not only for the unsurpassed quality of its ingredients and dishes, but also for the welcoming, family atmosphere and the friendliness and kindness of the owners and young staff. To savor the typical flavors of Sicily and enjoy the tranquility the place exudes, Osteria delle Palme is the first choice!

23/07/2026: Everything about our experience at Armonia was perfect. From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable, the food was absolutely amazing, and the atmosphere couldn't have been better. The restaurant has beautiful views and a wonderful ambiance that made the entire evening feel special. A special thank you to our waiter, Luca, who truly made the experience unforgettable. He was attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and gave excellent recommendations. Beyond that, he was genuinely funny, warm, and a pleasure to chat with throughout the evening, making us feel incredibly welcome. If you're visiting Taormina, Armonia is a must. Outstanding food, exceptional service, and a beautiful setting. We can't wait to come back!

03/05/2026: I've eaten there three times, and I've always had a great time!! Exceptional service and food.

27/07/2026: For me, one of the best pizza restaurants!

26/06/2026: One of the best pizzas. I came to this restaurant this evening for pizza. My friends and I ordered five takeout pizzas and ate them on the beach, which is literally across the street from the restaurant. We were greeted warmly and had a wonderful, relaxing atmosphere. The view was breathtaking. The pizzas are very easy to digest, not heavy, and very delicate. I had a parmigiana with baked ricotta and was amazed, first by the smell and then by the taste. The pizza was so crispy, the ingredients were just right, and the digestibility astonished me. I didn't feel the slightest bit heavy or bloated, as I often do when I eat pizza. Kudos to the entire restaurant. P.S. I don't have a photo of the pizza because I was too curious to try it, but it was beautiful, even aesthetically.

04/05/2026: Interesting location, excellent table service right from the moment you arrive. That's all there is to it. The pizza was really small and had very little toppings; I wouldn't eat it again even if I paid (I'm sorry to say, but it wasn't good). We paid so much, but I don't understand why. Just because the place overlooks the lake? The value for money is nonexistent.

23/04/2026: The owner is really nice, and the place is cute and overlooks the lake. There are some good and some not-so-good dishes, but the quality/price ratio is fair.

30/06/2026: Really good local food. A restaurant where our local population eats. Highly recommended!

12/06/2026: Very nice place with good food.

29/01/2026: Such a nice family owned place, I'd give it a hug! The pizzas are delicious, great wine, cosy and welcoming atmosphere!

22/10/2025: Stopped just for a drink. Good and efficient service.
