I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Messina

21/09/2025: "Unfortunately, I had a terrible experience today. I've always spoken highly of this ice cream shop and even brought my relatives, convinced of the quality it once had. Instead, the ice cream was terrible and made all four of us feel sick. I was very disappointed, especially because I wanted to make a good impression on my brother and uncles. I made a terrible impression, and right now I can only say I'm deeply disappointed. I will never return. On top of all that, after we had four ice creams, they even differentiated the amount of cream in the smallest cone. This is not the right way to show customer service."

21/09/2025: We had four cones of terrible hazelnut and gianduja ice cream. They taste the same. The chocolate left our teeth and lips black. It took 10 minutes to remove the stains, and that doesn't mean it's of high quality. Afterward, we had stomach cramps and heartburn. The cream was ivory, not milky white, and melted to the point of falling out. The ice cream isn't fresh; the cone wafers aren't crispy. It left our mouths sour.

30/11/2025: I'm giving one star because it's the only thing that can be given less. The food was of extremely low quality and poorly cooked. My wife and I were sick all night, and I'll never go back. I realized this immediately when I saw there were two tables of four people on a Saturday night. Spending €100 for two people to also feel sick is beyond words.

19/10/2025: I went for lunch for my mother's birthday and we chose the house menu. Everything was delicious and the fish was incredibly fresh. The staff was extremely kind and attentive to their needs. The location is simple and elegant, we'll definitely be back!

08/09/2025: Excellent focaccia with various flavours, all good, recommended to everyone.

02/09/2025: For me, the best focaccia in Messina, not to mention the mozzarella in carrozza, pure poetry. Thank you for existing🤗 A small, simple, welcoming place where you can enjoy an extraordinary taste experience in the name of true tradition.

23/02/2026: My husband and I had lunch yesterday and we had a really good time: apart from the friendliness and courtesy of the staff, the food was very good, home-cooked with many zero-mile dishes.

06/12/2025: Excellent food that reflects the region and what the season has to offer. A must-visit. Their homemade soap and wine are also excellent.

01/10/2025: Good pizzeria in Capo D'Orlando, and the restaurant is also excellent. In a good location, with friendly staff.

14/09/2025: I come from Australia and had the best veal cutlet. Very prompt service from attentive staff

12/06/2026: Amazing look at the Roman amphitheater Great sea bass Great pasta special Great people

08/06/2026: A bit too pricey for what it offers, feels a bit generic and touristy. The pasta was good but the cassata was frozen and for the high price of a dessert we expected quality.

24/05/2026: Great place, excellent service, top-notch ice cream.

23/03/2026: Great place. Friendly atmosphere, delicious food. Thanks for amazing pizza and pasta.

07/05/2026: We got there to have our breakfast and it was tasty cappuccino and a croissant 🥐

15/03/2026: Based on the reviews, we came to this pastry shop and it visually delighted us. We took 6 cakes. One of them, the cheesecake, was so dry and hard that I thought it was plastic. I returned it in surprise, and the waitress said to me "A signora..." because I guess it was my fault for choosing that cake from the ones offered in the window. No excuse, no word to explain, no apology or justification at all. She gave me another cake, similar to the first one. There were three more "plastic" ones left in the window, be careful not to choose them. I don't think you can find something like that even in the worst pastry shop in Croatia. The mini crostatas with wild strawberries were top-notch.

28/12/2025: A place where you feel at home ❤️ wonderful in every way

15/12/2025: Excellent. Everything was delicious! The staff were extremely kind, the service was fast and clean. The fish was incredibly fresh, and the kindness and smiles are hallmarks of an excellent team. Everything was excellent. I was extremely satisfied and plan to return to try many other dishes. I highly recommend it. Kudos to the staff for everything!

10/06/2026: Fast service, super good pizza, the guys are kind and friendly. Top price!

25/04/2026: We got pasta with salmon and pasta with shrimp, as well as a pizza. The pasta with salmon was so salty it was almost inedible. The pasta with shrimp—the shrimp had a distinctly unpleasant taste. On the other hand, the pizza was really good. This is not a place I will come back to.

07/04/2026: The food was cold and the service was very slow. We waited an hour for our first courses. We won't be back.

09/03/2026: If I can give you one piece of advice, I'd say visit and experience the quality, a truly satisfying place.

22/01/2026: Excellent quality, it's the only one in the area that makes me lick my lips.

05/11/2025: To some, it may seem like just a bar, but to me, it's always felt like home. The girls are always smiling and very kind. Even if they only see me once a year, they remember me and save my favorite lobster tail for me. The pastas are simply perfect, always fresh and perfectly balanced in flavor. You absolutely have to stop by.

01/01/2026: I went with my family to celebrate my birthday. I'd been there years ago when it was a pizzeria under the old management. We were satisfied; the food was very good. Excellent service, nice and welcoming place.

25/10/2025: A decent mussel soup and a sadly overcooked seafood risotto can happen, but poor service can't be ignored. • Point one: the waitress's obnoxious insistence on telling us what she was saying, pretending not to understand our requests. • Point two: the wine-by-the-glass scam, with a terrible, sour white wine that we had changed and which she then immediately passed on to the table behind us. The response was, quote: "If you ask me for wine by the glass, this is quality!" An unspeakable response, especially since any restaurant offers a choice of at least two whites and two reds. • Point three: the mockery about the mussels, quote: "They're small these days, but frankly, they're the ones I like best," and a few minutes later, at the same table behind us, quote: "Mussels are small these days, but I don't eat them anyway, neither large nor small." Frankly, we've never encountered such a bizarre place. And then when the owner, perhaps unaware, said goodbye to us by saying "See you next time," and we replied, "Frankly, next time won't be here," she remained speechless, not even trying to understand what had happened, not just to try to improve herself, but not even out of politeness. Speechless.
