I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Messina

13/10/2025: A splendid location on the Sant'Agata Militello seafront, the beautifully appointed interior dining room reaches its peak beauty in the summer months, with its garden and swimming pool offering a splendid view of the Aeolian Islands and fairytale sunsets. We've been here several times, for lunch, dinner, and even for our wedding ceremony. On each occasion, the food has been impeccable, thanks to the mastery of Chef Biagio and his staff, both in preparation and presentation, and with beautifully balanced flavors. The owner, Carmela, is excellent, always attentive to detail and the service is attentive and courteous. The price is absolutely in line with the offerings. Highly recommended.

12/10/2025: Wonderful location, impeccable service, everyone was friendly and kind, especially Mrs. Carmela who satisfied us in everything.

12/10/2025: Came twice, was closed even when it showed it was open on google. Very disapointing

20/09/2025: Like everything on the island, it's rather expensive. The salad was very good. The pistachio cookies were a bit dry. Friendly service. Good outdoor seating. Large selection of dishes and breads.

02/01/2026: I was there for New Year's Eve dinner... the worst of my life... buffet appetizer... and when people slowly started to serve themselves, many dishes were finished and never replaced, and the exact same thing with the desserts and fruit, a disgrace for a dinner that you book and paid a lot of money, except for the first courses which were served at the table, the service was sufficient, rating 3... I will never set foot in there again and not just me but many of the people who were with us

08/12/2025: After calling six months in advance to confirm a reservation for a First Communion reception, the owner hasn't gotten back to me. Out of caution, I thought I'd already booked, so I called to confirm, and they told me they were fully booked and couldn't help me. I politely replied, "That's fine." I don't recommend this place because the owner isn't honoring the agreements made.

29/10/2025: What a delight. Appetizers, first courses, roast meats like mutton, buinissimi, and fresh fries—it's like lunch at grandma's house. The owner and staff are very kind and courteous.

18/09/2025: A beachside restaurant in Oliveri (ME) during the first week of September, with few people and plenty of relaxation. Well-crafted aperitifs and top-notch dishes. Precise and friendly service. The homemade first courses are highly recommended.

27/08/2025: Watered-down aperitif and not even two appetizers; courteous but approximate service.

25/04/2026: Terrible place, unprofessional staff. After a reservation we were left out because they cancelled the reservation without our knowledge. Highly not recommended.

25/04/2026: I'm sorry, but I will never go to this place again. We had a reservation for 15 people on April 25th. We arrived (let's start by saying we're from Catania). The lady told us we didn't have a reservation, that she called and we canceled the reservation, which wasn't true. The lady had put a phone number next to our last name, which belonged to someone else who had canceled due to family issues, and she canceled our reservation. In the end, after two mistakes on their part, the lady came out with the happy idea: "I can put you outside without a tent or umbrella." Honestly, I lost my temper and told them, "Ma'am, you can eat outside."

09/05/2026: Wonderful experience. The views force you to take dozens of photos (day and night). Rafael (?) took exceptional care of us including an impromptu dinner in the lounge on a chilly spring evening. Loved it.

08/05/2026: A pleasant stay in a hotel nestled in an oasis of peace and relaxation, because that's what the island of Salina is all about. The hotel is simple and well-maintained, and the staff is friendly, helpful, and professional. Our only complaint was that some hotel services were unavailable, likely because the season is just starting. Overall, the experience was positive.

28/09/2025: I ate pizza, dry and dry dough with peeled tomatoes in my opinion and put tomato as a base, maybe other products will be better but I really don't think the pizza

10/09/2025: Very welcoming place. We dined in the spacious back room. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The food was really good and plentiful.

01/03/2026: Excellent hamburger, well priced, lovely staff and atmosphere. All round good experience!

28/02/2026: A restaurant in the center of Milazzo, just steps from the town hall. First time... we came for lunch. The restaurant was practically empty. It was just us and maybe two others. Despite being almost alone, the wait times, the wait, and the courses were slow and confusing. The appetizers were supposed to arrive first, then the meat. The meat arrived first, served on a cast iron plate to keep it warm. In fact, the plate was cold and the meat lukewarm. They forgot the drinks, and the appetizer arrived last after a very long wait. Terrible service. I'm sorry to say this. The meat wasn't bad, but being cold is unacceptable. The price was high for the service and the dishes ordered. We definitely won't be returning.

14/08/2025: We chose this restaurant at random, based on the menu found online and the reviews, and I must say we made the right choice... a wonderful terrace with a breathtaking view, top-quality food, and excellent service. All in a quiet atmosphere, with good background music and no intrusiveness. Highly recommended!

14/08/2025: It was a great restaurant. Beautiful food and view and wine! Recommend highly! Thank you!!

07/04/2026: This is the coolest cute hotel ever. Breakfast was great and I had a view of the ocean from my bed. The people are cool.

26/12/2025: A great place. Not easy to find. But one I gladly recommend.

11/08/2025: Historic bar with excellent value. The building is a bit dated. Friendly staff.

27/01/2026: We were cheated in the middle of the day, simply because we were tourists. They added three dishes to the bill right in front of us, even though we only ordered two. I do not recommend this place to anyone.

27/12/2025: terrible, I will never come again

07/10/2025: Well...my friends reading this, my expectations were high, in the sense that when they tell you about a gourmet restaurant, you don't just expect a beautiful plating but something more. Punta Lena is a charming restaurant, nothing extraordinary, right on the sea. Perhaps the downside was that when we went for dinner, it was already dark, and we couldn't tell we were right next to the sea. In any case, the dishes were well-cooked, but like pretty much everywhere else in Stromboli. It didn't stand out compared to the rest in terms of food quality. One flaw I absolutely didn't expect was the peppered mussels, which were so salty it tasted like seawater. And we Sicilians know how to cook mussels...when we pointed this out, we were simply told: oh...strange... Anyway, my calamari was good, but it was frozen. Maybe it's because I'm used to eating fresh fish; I can tell right away. The flavor was very good, anyway. That said, I can't give more stars because, guys, it's truly impossible to mess up a Pepata... The prices are truly outrageous for the type of food.

26/09/2025: Decent dishes, very friendly waiter, nice location.
