I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Messina

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!

13/10/2025: The staff is friendly but the food is terrible and the structure is dilapidated, the parking is even dangerous.

05/08/2025: I'd heard good things about this place, and looking on Facebook, I saw some tempting dishes—boards of appetizers, first courses, second courses, etc. When we got there after an hour's drive, the staff told me they only do pizza rounds; 4 people is too much, so we ordered four pizzas from the menu... well... neither praise nor infamy... I've had better. The service is non-existent, drinks are basic... water and Messina beer... napkins are on demand, and when it's time to pay, a waitress pockets the money, turns her back, and walks away, without a receipt... I thought they were doing us a favor by letting us in. The prices are certainly low, but so is the quality. I'll also have to reconsider my relationship with the people who recommended it to me... never again 😕

18/02/2026: A welcoming place with good food. We ordered the platter for three of us, and it was enough for an appetizer. Plus, the delicious meatballs. The meat-based main courses were good. Delicious tiramisu.

23/12/2025: New and well-structured venue.... Excellent cocktails and aperitifs

26/10/2025: Please note this is no longer a campsite. It is only a restaurant.

19/10/2025: Well done to the gentleman in the dining room! Excellent food!

18/10/2025: A delicious meal. We ordered arancini, pitoni, and focaccia for dinner. Then we had a dessert called "bianco e nero," which was spectacular.

10/10/2025: A pizzeria, restaurant, café, and bakery all in one 😀. Great coffee, delicious mini ice cream cones, and super traditional Sicilian rolls with fillings (spinach, cheese, pistachios, mortadella, etc.) – truly some of the best I've ever had. A takeaway option, perfect for the beach. Plus, a ton of various sweets. A must-see if you're visiting a beach in the area.

02/01/2026: Terrible experience. The appetizer was incredibly poor and of truly questionable quality. The portions were meager on everything, including the pasta: ridiculous quantities that didn't even begin to justify the price. Now I completely understand why the place was completely empty. Paying €152 for four pieces of fish and a plate of pasta for four is simply unacceptable. A pack of pasta costs less than €2: is it really that difficult to get a little more? We left the table hungry and with a bitter taste in our mouths. We'll never return.

01/01/2026: We were warmly welcomed, the staff were very friendly, the pizza was good, and the price was fair. The fried food needs to be revisited, but that might have been a fluke.

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

11/10/2025: Maurizio was very kind and welcoming. The caponata was the best I've tasted in the Aeolian Islands, and the stuffed squid with sauce was wonderful! Thank you.

05/10/2025: For the owner alone this restaurant is worth a visit. Such a lovely and engaging man, who spoke Italian, English and German with us. The food is delicious and though on the pricier side, portion size and quality justify it. We had the best seafood noodles here. (Sadly I only have a photo of the empty shells)

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

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

23/02/2026: Interesting, but pleasant, concept. No menus or prices. Just order a drink and get something delicious. Then surprisingly your table gets covered with loads of hot & cold snacks. Fantastic if you haven't eaten, possibly a waste if you're not hungry. Regarding cost, of course this concept is a bit of a risk. But we were very pleasantly surprised - €11 each for awesome cocktails and enough munchies for dinner for us. I'd definitely go again.

10/02/2026: I stumbled upon this place by chance and had a great time. I'll definitely be back! Very professional and helpful! Excellent cocktails and appetizers.

11/10/2025: The traditional dishes are very good, but the place is a bit dark and could use a refresh. Time seems to have stopped somewhere between the '80s and '90s.

28/02/2026: The pistachio granita wasn't good, it was very oxidized; the others were average. The brioche was good.

14/02/2026: A €10 Spritz...in the little bar in the Torre Faro square. Need I say more? It seems truly offensive. And I don't want to be harsh on the judgement. THE OWNERS SHOULD SIMPLY BE ASHAMED.

19/11/2025: The coffee and arancini were very delicious, and the staff member was a very nice Hungarian-speaking lady! 🫶🏻

07/11/2025: We ordered 3 portions of fish and chips and squid to take away. The food was prepared very slowly. (approx. 20-30 minutes) When paying, it turned out that we could not pay by card, only cash. The paper cone we received contained very little squid, but at least it was expensive. We will not go here again, I do not recommend it.

13/01/2026: Who doesn't enjoy swimming in a pool with cigarettes butts. Good things swimming caps are mandatory, but too bad no one told us it's not forced anyway, and in the end we didn't have to buy those swimming caps I guess. No lifeguard at the pool. Loud partying noises till 3am. When at 2am I called reception, because I couldn't sleep, they told me "1 hour" and left the phone hanging, so if you are planning your RELAXING STAY/VACATION it would probably be better to avoid this hotel.

05/01/2026: We stayed here for the first two days and the last day of a tour. The motto: great at the front, terrible at the back. We had a "handicapped room" for two nights. Large, with a balcony and a sea view. It was fine! On the last day, we had a room at the back. Small, with a view of slum-like alleys. Water reached the middle of the bathroom when we showered. On the day of departure, at 6:15 a.m. (it was still dark outside), the power outage in the room! We had to pack our suitcases using our cell phone lights! Later, we received no response, apology, or anything like that at reception. And why can't they replace this "balcony furniture"?
