I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Messina

20/11/2025: Welcoming place and professional and kind staff.... We had both aperitifs and desserts, the quality makes the difference.. high quality products.... I recommend it!

29/10/2025: Excellent pastry shop, good and tasty ice creams, I'm also satisfied with the good pastries accompanied by the delicious cakes, the friendliness of the staff makes it excellent, I loved the numerous croissants for their true goodness, for my excellent breakfast that accompanies me every morning. If you find yourself passing by Viale Annunziata, stop by and sit down to enjoy the excellent coffee with a good croissant, as well as taking home the delicious pastries.

28/12/2025: The service was quite poor...It was something like: + Are you open? - Yes, of course we are We sit down, the waiter comes and we order. Few minutes later, he brings the drinks and says: - "I am sorry guys but I forgot to tell you that we're closing in 30 minutes." Then, having shots with the employees in front of the customers when they are queueing up is not very professional (secondo mie...) Expensive as the main street in Taormina, spritz senza amore...

03/11/2025: Cozy little place! BUT 12 euros for a bottle of beer - it must be one of the most expensive in town. It was definitely our most expensive beer on our entire vacation

17/10/2025: Do you know what "shrinkflation" is? Essentially, it's when the price of a product is kept the same but the quantity is reduced. These rustici cost €1.50 and would once have been called mini-sized... now, however, they're the "normal" size. Very good, yes, but small and therefore expensive. P.S. I understand the answer, but in that case, there are two options: everyone else uses much lower-quality raw materials, or they have a lower profit margin. (The truth probably lies somewhere in the middle.)

03/10/2025: Delicious focaccia and rustici…I recommend it

11/12/2025: Excellent products and friendly and helpful staff.

20/07/2025: The rustici and focaccia with generous fillings are amazing.

21/11/2025: Cold coffee P.S : he replaced the coffee and such an amazing taste of music <<3

31/10/2025: Terrible service, waiters who can't speak Italian, let alone write down orders. The result? Everything arrives wrong. The Pitoni is good, but they could be significantly improved by replacing the cheese they use with an excellent tuma. The focaccia is terrible.

26/09/2025: The ancient flavors of Messina...focaccia made with top-quality ingredients...service at the counter, kindness and courtesy are particularly noteworthy...highly recommended

04/01/2026: I went there for a cappuccino and it tasted flavourless and watery. Don't bother with this tourist trap

03/01/2026: Unacceptable and Discriminatory Behavior During my stay, I witnessed openly offensive and discriminatory comments directed at people from Catania, made by local customers. The most serious thing is that Giulio, a bar staff member, did not intervene in any way and openly agreed with those customers, allowing derogatory comparisons and stereotypes (such as the derogatory comparison of Catanese to Neapolitans) to be easily normalized. As a Catanese, I felt directly affected and deeply offended. A place that tolerates—or worse, ignores—this type of behavior lacks professionalism and respect for its customers. A terrible experience on a human level. I will not return, and I do not recommend the place to anyone expecting even a modicum of civility.

23/10/2025: We ate well in this little tarttoria

29/09/2025: An authentic restaurant in a quiet alley. Delicious food and friendly, attentive staff. +++

13/09/2025: Poor quality and terrible customer service. I will never go there again. I'm sorry to have to write all this, but I've never been in a situation like this. They wanted to give me focaccia with completely burned edges and insisted it was well done. I can assure you, I know how to distinguish well done from burned (a black edge that is highly carcinogenic). There was no one in the rotisserie, so there was no confusion that could justify this arrogant treatment because I dared ask for a replacement focaccia with edible edges. Finally, the guy forgot to say hello. This shows poor customer service.

21/08/2025: Excellent arancini... Too bad about the guy (with glasses) who serves at the counter with infinite rudeness.

05/01/2026: New Year's Eve was a disaster The bathrooms smelled of urine, enough to make you want to vomit Zero hygiene Zero safety

01/01/2026: New Year's Eve 2025/2026 dinner to forget. The food was awful, with disgusting flavors, overcooked pasta, and everything served cold on frozen plates. The service was equally disappointing; we never had 12 diners eat a single dish together. Before midnight, they served fruit, dessert, and lentils, the latter served in a single central dish from which each person had to scoop with their own spoon—unhygienic at all. Not to mention the restrooms were not adequate for the number of guests. All this for the modest sum of €120 per person to fast... a terrible experience and definitely not to be repeated!!!!

01/08/2025: Abbiamo mangiato a pranzo in questo ristorante, su una bella terrazza con vista mare. Abbiamo mangiato pane cunzato, frittura mista, spiedini di pesce spada. Buon cibo, piatti tipici, servizio veloce e prezzi adeguati.

22/07/2025: Luftiger Terasse, Blick aufs Meer, sehr gutes Essen: Pizza blitzschnell am Tischund köstlich,,Risotto und Nudel absolut top! Hauswein kühl und leicht. Absolut empfehlenswert!

18/09/2025: Fast service and excellent pizza! Pleasant little terrace in the evening.

11/09/2025: Fantastically delicious pizza! Nice service.

31/08/2025: Delicious food and impeccable service

27/08/2025: Fresh, tasty, and freshly fried fish. Friendly staff, located on the main street of Canneto. The owner even gave us complimentary bruschetta to start. A lovely lunch on our first day in the Aeolian Islands.
